Mint Discs Nocturnal Glow Longhorn
The Mint Discs Nocturnal Glow Longhorn is an overstable distance driver with a flatter top than most wraith-style molds, and the glow plastic lets you keep playing after the sun goes down without losing track of it. It fights wind better than most discs in this speed class.
Flight Numbers: 11 / 4 / -1 / 2.5
Nocturnal glow plastic charges fast under a UV light and holds that glow deep into a night round. It feels a little denser in the hand than a standard 175 gram disc, and it takes a fair number of throws before the glide really opens up, so do not expect a ton of float on the first few flights.
Thrown flat with power it holds a long, mostly straight line before fading hard left at the end, and on a forehand release the predictable overstability makes it easy to control even for players still learning that side of the game. Slower arms who throw it forehand get a straighter finish and can put more torque on it than a flippier disc would allow.
Good for intermediate and advanced players who want a dependable overstable driver for open, treeless courses or night rounds. It is not the disc to reach for if maximum glide is what you are after.
Want the same mold and flight without the glow? The Mint Discs Sublime Longhorn has the metallic Sublime look instead. Prefer more understable? The Mint Discs Apex Longhorn turns over more. See our overstable distance drivers.
