The M1 is an overstable Prodigy midrange rated 5/4/0/3. No turn and a firm fade suit approaches and mid-range drives that need a dependable left finish for a right-hand backhand, including into the wind. Players who want a straight or understable mid should look elsewhere. Prodigy describes a consistent, controllable overstable mid that it says flies as well into the wind as with it. Its 2016 page for the reworked M1 described a disc that holds its release line and then gradually fades left, with a flat profile suited to short sidearm throws. Prodigy has said Isaac Robinson likes breaking M1s in until they become very workable. The original M1 was among Prodigy's first midranges, approved on 5 March 2013 (13-11); the current mold was approved as the New M1 on 4 July 2015 (15-60). On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Dynamic Discs Mutiny and the Westside Bard.

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.
