The Longhorn is a fast Mint Discs driver rated 11/4/-1/3. It is intended for drives that use some early movement while retaining a substantial finish. A player who can bring a speed-11 disc up to pace has more opportunity to use that full shape; a slower release can leave the fade doing much of the work. Mint introduced the Longhorn as its second distance driver and as a more stable companion to the Freetail. The brand describes a small rise from hyzer toward flat and resistance to moderate wind. The PDGA approved it on 12 August 2020.

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.
