Axiom Proton Insanity
5
The Axiom Proton Insanity is a stable control driver, Axiom's first distance and control driver, cast in translucent Proton plastic with the speckled colorways Proton is known for.
Flight Numbers: 9 / 5 / -2 / 1.5
Proton on this mold comes out shiny and translucent with a tacky feel that grips well straight out of the box, better than the smoother Neutron runs. It flies a touch more stable than the Insanity does in other plastics while still turning easily at speed, and it holds that flight for a long time since Proton beats in slower than most of Axiom's other blends.
Thrown with power it turns over smoothly and holds a long, controlled line rather than flipping all the way over, and average arm speeds still get a remarkably straight flight with real distance. That makes it a fairway driver that plays longer than its numbers, useful for backhand drives, forehand flicks, and turnover shots when a hole calls for working around an obstacle. Intermediate players get an easy to throw driver that goes far without much effort; bigger arms get a disc that holds up at full power instead of dumping into a hard fade.
Want a slightly less stable flight? The Neutron Insanity turns over a little easier. Prefer more glide and a softer plastic? The Plasma Insanity is worth bagging next to it. Browse the whole Insanity lineup.
