The NSH11 Bird of Prey is a 3D-printed control-driver-class mold from Newb SimHouse Custom Discs, a small United States maker that bills itself as the first 3D-printed disc golf disc manufacturer. The name points to the Klingon Bird of Prey from Star Trek.

The PDGA approved it on May 8, 2023 under certification 23-136, recording a 21.1 cm diameter, 2.0 cm rim, 1.6 cm height, and 1.1 cm rim depth. That gives it a 2.0 cm rim in fairway and control-driver territory, though the dimensions identify the class only and cannot establish speed, glide, turn, fade, or stability.

NSH calls it an overstable double-rim driver with aggressive flight and a forehand-ready grip. Newb SimHouse publishes no numeric flight ratings for its molds, so none are listed here. Because each disc is printed rather than injection-molded, run-to-run feel depends on the print itself rather than on a named plastic family, and no material line is listed.

Flight

Source: Newb SimHouse Custom Discs
SpeedHow hard the disc must be thrown to fly as designed. Putters are 1 to 3, the fastest drivers 14 and up.
-
GlideHow long the disc stays in the air. More glide means more distance from the same throw.
-
TurnHow much it drifts right early in flight (right-handed backhand). More negative, more drift.
-
FadeHow hard it hooks left as it slows down (right-handed backhand). Higher, stronger hook.
-
StabilityTurn plus fade. Negative drifts right and is easier for beginners. Positive finishes left.Turn + Fade

Dimensions

Source: PDGA
DiameterHow wide the disc is, edge to edge. Almost every disc is 21 to 22 cm.
21.1 cm
HeightHow tall the disc is lying flat. Putters are usually the tallest.
1.6 cm
Rim DepthHow deep the rim is underneath, where your fingers grip. Putters have the deepest rims.
1.1 cm
Rim ThicknessHow wide the rim is. Wider rims make faster discs that need a stronger throw.
2 cm
Rim Inside DiameterThe width of the flat middle, inside the rim. Bigger usually means a slower, easier disc.
17.1 cm
Rim Depth/Diameter RatioRim depth as a share of the disc's width. Higher means a deeper rim for its size.
5.2%
Rim ConfigurationA PDGA score for the shape of the edge. Low is sharp, like a driver. High is rounded, like a putter.
29
