The D6 is an understable Prodigy distance driver rated 12/6/-3/2. High glide and plenty of turn with a moderate fade suit long turnover drives and rollers, and distance for players without a big arm. Players who need a stable finish or a headwind driver should look elsewhere. Prodigy says it flips up when thrown hard, turns right for a right-hand backhand, glides a long way and then draws gently back to the left, and recommends it for long, controlled rollers. On Disc Golf Course Review, one player said a well-worn D6 had become very flippy and useful for rollers. The PDGA approved the original D6 on 13 May 2016 (16-46) and a retooled D6 V2 on 16 December 2018 (18-87). Try Discs lists it in 200, 400, 400G, 750G, AIR Spectrum and Prodigy Air as of October 2026. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Innova Tern and the Discraft Hades.

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.
