Taco

4.7(15)
Mid Range

The Mint Discs Taco is a stable, beaded midrange (5/5/0/2) and Mint's first beaded mid, slotting neatly between the Mustang and Bobcat. It carries a familiar Mustang-like feel in the hand but adds more speed and wind stability, with a big bead and rounded nose that help it handle torque and hold a dependable line. Equally comfortable on backhands and forehands, the Taco is a reliable power midrange for windy days and controlled approaches.

Questions

  • Is the Mint Taco overstable?
    It is stable to slightly overstable. The Taco (5/5/0/2) resists turn and finishes with a dependable fade, so it holds its line in wind and handles power without flipping. It sits between the Mustang and the more overstable Bobcat in Mint’s midrange lineup.

  • What is the Mint Taco similar to?
    Mint positions the Taco between their Mustang and Bobcat midranges. Fans of the Mustang will find a familiar feel with a touch more speed and wind resistance, making the Taco a good step up when you want more stability from a comfortable, beaded mid.

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.
