The Hyena is Wild Discs' turning fairway driver, rated 9/5/-2/2. It balances turn with a moderate finish, making it suited to controlled S-shaped drives and hyzer flips, where a tilted release rises toward flat. Players seeking strong resistance to turn may prefer a more overstable driver. Wild Discs' 2022 product page describes a straight-driving intention with room for that distance curve. The maker also recommends hyzer flips, giving the Hyena a line-shaping purpose rather than treating it as a hard-fading utility mold. The PDGA approved the Hyena on 11 July 2022 (22-121).

The Wild Discs Hyena has only 3 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.
