The Bobcat is a Mint Discs midrange rated 5/4/0/2.5, which Mint calls a power midrange. It brings a straight early flight and a firm fade to shots that need more finish than a neutral mid. That makes it useful when the landing zone sits around a corner; players who need a disc to drift steadily away from the fading side may prefer a less stable option. Mint identifies the Bobcat's flat profile and promotes it for both backhand and forehand throws, including windy rounds. The flat top is a meaningful grip detail for a golfer who prefers a lower surface under the thumb. PDGA approval came on 31 January 2019. Mint describes the Mustang as the straighter partner to the Bobcat.

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.
