5: Force (by Discraft) I have used a force for quite some time on and off and it is a pretty clutch disc. It has a decent amount of stability that helps it flip back and create S curves. The good thing about this disc is that it is not too overstable, so it can be used for lighter throws and gain more distance by flipping back.
4: Max (Innova) The max is a pretty uncommon disc. I have only met a few people outside of the friends I convinced to get one that used one. It is a very stable disc with a slightly lower speed. It can be used for a good 300-400 foot forehand with a small S curve or just a straight shot and Fade. I have gotten the Max to around 500 feet with a perfect S curve, but it is not as fast and will not go as far as some of the newer distance drivers.
3. Ape: (Innova) The Ape is a great disc. It can be used in a strong headwind for backhanding and a moderate headwind for forehanding. It is stable enough to flip back from most turns, but is also understable enough to turn just enough for a great S curve. This disc also flies. It is very easy to put this disc 300 ft. While it may be suited really only for longer holes, it sure eats up the distance in a hurry and will make approaches shorter.
2. Drone (Discraft) This is the only mid range on the list but it deserves to be in your bag. Seriously a great short range flick disc. Will go around 300 ft with a straight shot and fade. Maxes out around 400 with an s curve. Extremely reliable and predictable. Produces the most consistent lines for forehand and backhand throws.
1. Nuke OS (Discraft) The Nuke is a hard disc to use. Very very overstable and hard to put on an s curve. The good news is once you have enough arm power and can put spin on it, it will produce great s curves and fly out of you hand. Also anyone who wants to forehand into massive headwind, here it is finally!!! Seriously though great disc, greed speed, great stability, great for windy days, great in general.
