View full productWhy throw Union Putter — First Issue Detroit Edition?
A throwing putter rewards a smooth release and makes the result of the throw easier to read.
Choose Alley for controlled midrange shots. It finishes more firmly at slower speeds and flies straighter with power—use it when placement matters more than maximum distance.

View full productWhy throw Alley Midrange — First Issue Detroit Edition?
A midrange adds reach without giving up the placement focus of a slower disc.
Choose Arcade for longer fairway shots and shaping lines. Higher-speed throws can flip it up; slower throws can use an anhyzer release for an S-curve. Add it when you want more reach than your midrange.

View full productWhy throw Arcade Fairway Driver — First Issue Detroit Edition?
A fairway driver adds controlled distance with a more manageable rim than a high-speed distance driver.
A high-speed disc is designed to behave as intended at a higher launch speed. Without those release conditions, it may fade early and become harder to control. A slower disc can sometimes travel farther because it reaches a more effective flight.
Slower disc: full controlled flightFaster disc when underpowered: early fade
The best disc is not the one with the biggest number. It is the one you can launch on the intended line.
05 / WHAT SHAPES FLIGHT
Disc + Throw + Air
The Disc
Rim geometry, overall shape, mass distribution, flexibility, surface condition, wear, and manufacturing variation may influence flight.
The Throw
Release speed, spin, nose angle, hyzer or anhyzer angle, height, and wobble can significantly change the result.
The Air
Headwinds, tailwinds, crosswinds, air density, and turbulence can change the flight a player sees.
A disc’s flight is an interaction—not a promise printed on the stamp.
06 / WHAT ABOUT THE NUMBERS?
Useful shorthand, not standardized measurements.
Speed, glide, turn, and fade can help describe an intended flight, but the same disc may fly differently for different players.
A player can begin with only a few useful molds and add categories when a repeated shot need appears.
Should a beginner use a distance driver?
Not automatically. A fairway driver may travel farther and more accurately when a player cannot yet launch a high-speed driver effectively.
What is the difference between a throwing putter and a putting putter?
Putting putters prioritize comfortable, precise releases near the basket. Throwing putters are generally selected for controlled drives and approaches, though the roles may overlap.
What is the difference between a midrange and a fairway driver?
A midrange generally emphasizes control through the middle of the course. A fairway driver typically adds distance with a wider, faster rim.
Why does the same disc fly differently for different players?
Release speed, spin, angles, wobble, wind, wear, and manufacturing variation can all change the observed flight.
Are flight numbers scientifically standardized?
No. They are manufacturer-assigned shorthand rather than one standardized cross-brand measurement system.
When will the other Avenue disc types be available?
No release dates have been announced. Missing categories are marked Coming Soon.

Start with the shot, choose the category that fits the job, and add another disc only when your game asks for it.
