The Notch is rated 7/3/0/4.5. Zero turn, low glide and a heavy 4.5 fade read as a flight built around the finish: short, strong and dependably left for a right-hand backhand. Vibram introduced it as the brand's first wickedly overstable fairway driver, one its page said could handle tons of power and laugh at wind while keeping a decent amount of glide, with a comfortable grip for a consistent release. TryDiscs files it as a control driver. PDGA approval came on 20 April 2015, in the three-mold batch with the Arch and Valley. TryDiscs records six rubber runs for it. Out of production since Vibram's 2018 exit.

Reviews

The Vibram Notch has only 9 reviews so far, so one opinion can swing the picture. That's why there's no star average yet.

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.
