Empire | Prodiscus · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Empire" by Prodiscus delivers maximum distance for experienced throwers seeking a reliable distance driver with overstable flight characteristics. With a speed of 13 and fade of 4, it is designed primarily for powerful throws where control and distance potential must come together. This driver excels in windy conditions or when precise hyzer lines over long distances are required. In practice, the model proves more versatile than the flight numbers suggest—its balance of speed and stability makes it a viable option for various throwing styles. In flight, the "Empire" exhibits behavior somewhere between its stated flight ratings and the characteristics of discs like the Nuke or Boss. The glide of 5 ensures sufficient hang time, while a turn of 0 and fade of 4 confirm its overstable nature. However, the driver is slightly less overstable than expected—with a strong throw, it maintains a controlled straight flight before the pronounced fade kicks in. This combination allows for both high hyzer releases with maximum carry and flat releases that finish reliably. Stability remains intact even at higher speeds, ensuring consistency across different throws. For backhand throws, the "Empire" delivers big distance on hyzer and power lines, while also proving stable enough for forehand throws without unwanted turn. Advanced and professional players appreciate its predictability in wind and its ability to cover various distance scenarios with a single disc. Beginners, however, may find it challenging due to the high speed and stability requiring sufficient arm speed. Available in Ultrium and Premium plastic, the model offers excellent grip and durability for intensive distance use.
