The H5 is a fast, understable Prodigy driver rated 10/5/-3/1, part of its H Series of hybrid drivers. Plenty of turn, good glide and a light fade suit hyzer flips, turnovers and rollers, and easy distance for newer players. Players who need a stable finish or a headwind driver should look elsewhere. Prodigy says it flies stable to understable depending on the thrower's power, flips up from a hyzer with strong glide, and suggests it to stronger players for rollers and for tunnel shots that move left to right. On Disc Golf Course Review, two players described controllable turnover lines, one also reported easy hyzer flips with a very mild fade, and two noted a blunt edge. The PDGA approved the H5 on 8 February 2018 (18-17), alongside Prodigy's reworked H1 and H3. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Dynamic Discs Treason and the Terminal Velocity Discs Cervini.

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.
