The Tex

Control Driver
The Tex is an understable Lone Star Disc fairway driver rated 6/5/-3/1. Plenty of turn and a light fade at a modest speed suit hyzer flips, rollers, downhill shots and accurate lines through gaps, especially for slower arms. Players who need a stable finish for wind should look elsewhere. Lone Star Disc pitches it for precision shots through gaps, rollers, downhill distance and hyzer flips, and gave a release date of 14 June 2024. Its artist stamp shows a cowboy hat and holsters over an outline of Texas. The PDGA approved The Tex on 10 May 2024 (24-103). Try Discs lists it in Alpha, Bravo, Alpha Glow, Bravo Glow, Lima and Founders plastic as of October 2026. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the MVP Signal and the AquaFlight Discs Pelican.

The Lone Star Disc The Tex has only 4 reviews so far, so one opinion can swing the picture. That's why there's no star average yet.

Try Discs adds up reviews from six disc golf stores, so you see what players think across stores, not just at one shop. Reviews are great for spotting proven, popular discs. Take the details with a grain of salt, though: runs, plastics and skill level all change how a disc flies, so your experience may vary.
