Prodigy 500 H7
The Prodigy 500 H7 is a very understable control driver, and the extra glide the 500 plastic carries turns it into one of the easiest long turnover shots you can throw. Prodigy built the H7 to bend hard off a slight hyzer release and just keep bending.
Flight Numbers: 9 / 5 / -4 / 1
Prodigy's 500 plastic is the firm, pearlescent premium line. It grips well in cold weather without feeling gummy, and it holds its shape through a lot of hits before the rim starts to soften. Because 500 runs flatter than a domey 400, the turnover comes from your release angle rather than a domey top doing the work for you.
Release it on a slight hyzer at medium power and it flips up to flat, holds, then eases into a gentle turn that keeps carrying. Push it harder and the S curve gets longer. Thrown flat at full power it turns over into a long, sweeping roller, and it responds fast to release angle, so a few degrees of hyzer or anhyzer changes the shot more than on a stable driver.
Slower arms and beginners get an easy 9 speed turnover without needing much snap. Bigger arms get hyzerflips and rollers, a solid pick for carving tight, wooded fairways.
Want the beat-in version out of the box? Try the Prodigy 400 H7, softer and flippier from the factory. Want a fairway driver with a firmer fade? The Discraft ESP Heat is a good next step in stability. See the full H7 lineup.
