The Medusa is a turning Skyquest distance driver rated 11/5/-2/2. It fits longer flights with early movement and a moderate return, provided the thrower can bring the speed-11 design up to pace. Slower releases may show a straighter-to-fading line instead. The PDGA approved the Medusa on 21 March 2011. The certified profile has a broad driver wing and a relatively low rim depth, worth trying in a power grip before buying it for distance.

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.
