Recluse | Legacy Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Recluse" by Legacy Discs serves as a highly overstable midrange for throws where wind resistance and precise fade landings are crucial. With a speed of 5 and fade of 4, it covers situations where classic neutral midranges turn too early or drift uncontrollably. The pronounced bead on the inner rim ensures a defined grip, while the flat to slightly concave profile in Pinnacle and Icon plastics promotes clean releases. Compared to Dynamic Discs' "Justice," the Recluse offers similarly reliable overstability but lands with a gentler fade rather than a sharp skip—ideal for technical approaches under trees or in crosswinds. In flight, the high fade dominates: the disc holds its intended line even with strong arm speed before reliably pulling left. With a turn of 0 and glide of 3, it neither flips unintentionally nor floats excessively—instead, it follows a compact, controlled path. On hyzer angles, the early fade intensifies, while flat releases keep the disc stable in the air before it reliably fades left. This makes it the top choice for headwind shots where other midranges drift or lose height. Forehand players appreciate the Recluse for flex shots: the disc can be thrown on anhyzer, fights back against the rotation, and lands predictably. Backhand benefits from its stability in utility lines and scramble situations where the fade serves as a shaping tool. Beginners may find the disc too demanding due to its high fade, but intermediate and advanced players with clean releases will find it a precise tool for overstable slots—one that remains controlled even with higher spin. For those seeking a reliable complement to straight midranges and aiming to work with strong fade, the Recluse delivers a compact, grippy workhorse for technical shots.
