Best-selling putt & approach disk

Aim straight for the basket and nail your putts and approaches with a straight and stable flight path.
The PA3 has a beaded trim and is a favorite for disc golfers of all levels.

500 the plastic is developed through carefully considered player feedback

The Prodigy 500 Plastic has been in development for a long time.
The 500 plastic is molded and based on carefully considered player feedback.
It has a stiffer, less rubbery feel than the 400 Plastic.
This provides an extremely secure grip on the disc, balancing just the right amount of flex and firmness, with a very solid feel that Prodigy believes disc golfers will love.
The 500 Plastic has a unique pearlescent finish, unlike anything else in the Prodigy Disc plastic line.

What does PA-3 mean?

Prodigy has very logical names for their disks.
P= Putt, A= Approach and 3= 1-7 indicate how over or under stable the disc is.
A low number means over-stable and the higher the number the more under-stable the disk is.

The PA-3 has a Beaded Rim

A beaded disc has a small piece of plastic molded into the bottom of the rim, creating a small circular ridge.
A beadless putter has a bottom edge without this extra ridge, leaving a smooth, rounded edge on the disc.

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.
