Sling | Westside Golf Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Sling" by Westside Golf Discs is a versatile midrange that has established itself as an all-around disc for players of nearly any skill level. With its official flight ratings, it positions itself as a slightly overstable disc, yet in practice, it demonstrates a noticeably straighter flight path. This discrepancy makes the "Sling" a particularly interesting option for throws where control and predictability are key. The disc is available in Tournament, VIP, and Origio plastics, with Tournament standing out for its exceptional grip. The bead on the inner rim divides opinions—while some players find it bothersome, others appreciate the added hand control it provides. In flight, the "Sling" exhibits a surprisingly neutral to slightly understable behavior, deviating significantly from the manufacturer's specifications. Instead of the expected overstability, it flies remarkably straight, showing only slight turnover under extreme acceleration. The fade at the end is minimal, making the disc ideal for point-and-shoot throws. Its high glide allows for impressive distances with moderate effort. This combination of straight flight and reliable, gentle fade enables precise landings even on longer midrange distances. The disc holds anhyzer lines solidly and can also be thrown on hyzer without pulling excessively to the left. For beginners, the "Sling" offers an exceptionally approachable midrange that forgives mistakes while still allowing for shot-shaping. Advanced players favor it for technical tunnel shots and controlled distance throws in the midrange category. The disc performs reliably both backhand and forehand, making it an excellent choice as a first or second midrange in the bag. Its strength lies in predictability—what you throw is what you get, with no unexpected surprises in flight behavior.
