Golf Disc Rankings 4-Week Roundup: FD Soars, Destroyer Rises, and a Proxy Comeback

Golf Disc Rankings 4-Week Roundup: FD Soars, Destroyer Rises, and a Proxy Comeback

FD launches into the Top 40 after slow-burn hype catches fire

If you’re looking for the disc that stole the spotlight over the past 4 weeks, look no further than the Discmania FD. Once sulking down at #55, it’s now sitting pretty at #40, thanks to a 15-rank jump that felt about as subtle as a stampede at a stamp show. This isn’t some random seasonal fluke either. The FD has been floating around the “Hmm, maybe I should try that?” list for years. Now, it appears that thought finally turned into throw.

Why now? Some say it’s the rise in content showcasing the FD’s sneaky range and clean lines. Others reckon it’s nostalgia for late turn, early flight vibes. Either way, when enough disc golfers decide they don’t all need to “throw Destroyers like Calvin,” such turns in the chart tend to happen.

Top Movers This Month

Destroyer braces and bolts into third

Speaking of Destroyers, it wouldn’t be a roundup without their obligatory mention. They’ve crept up two spots and now sit at #3, nudging ahead of both the Crave and the Berg. There’s no mystery here — tournament season kicks up, arms stretch into form, and players reach for comfort chaos. Nothing screams “controlled violence” like an Innova Destroyer released just right. It’s like a boxer’s jab: repeatable, explosive, and sometimes very satisfying to watch never come back.

Proxy climbs 13 spots: gliders rejoice

Another surprise? The Axiom Proxy is back on a heater, surfing its way 13 places up to #28. After a patch of obscurity, it’s regained traction among those who like to float into putts like they’re cosying into a hammock. Whether it’s because the Glitch crowd grew up or TikTok sent the Proxy’s glide viral, the effect’s the same: it’s back in bags, back in baskets.

Dance of the Top 10

Elsewhere in the elite end of the rankings, the midfield remains a polite standoff. Buzzz and Hex remain locked at #1 and #2 respectively, like two old gents silently outlasting each other at the pub quiz. The Crave and Berg swapped spots again, with both feeling the pressure from the climbing Destroyer. Down lower, MVP’s Trail edged into the Top 10 at #9. With stability and a marketing nudge, it’s proving you don’t need superstar status to earn a seat at the grown-up table.

Discs to Watch Ahead

Keep an eye on the Pure (#31) and Judge (#33). Steady climbers often follow this pattern: those who try them start recommending them, and before you know it, they’re up five more places. Also worth watching? The P2’s subtle re-entry at #49. Just 4 weeks ago it wasn’t even ranked. Insert comeback montage music.

Next month, will the FD keep slaloming upward? Could the Proxy make a late claim for putter supremacy? And will the Buzzz ever budge? Only time, YouTube reviews, and the temperature of online carts will tell. Until then, throw well, putt cleaner, and blame your disc selection for everything else.
