What does F5 mean?
Prodigy has very logical names for their Discs.
F= Fairway Driver and 5= 1-7 indicates how over or under stable the disc is.
A low number means over-stable and the higher the number the more under-stable the disc is.
Over- or under-stable
Over- or under-stable explains whether the disc goes right or left for right-handed backhand throwers.
Add turn + Fade, if the sum is below 0 the disc is under-stable.
If the sum is 0, it is a neutral disc and if the sum is over 1, the disc is overstable.
Understable = Right, Neutral = Straight, Overstable = Left.
If you are left-handed it is the other way around, also applies to a right-handed person throwing forehand.
As a beginner, you should have an under-stable disc with low weight.
