Scorch Blazes Through the Charts as Mako3 Returns to Top Form in the Aug 15, 2025 Golf Disc Rankings

Top-ranked discs on Friday August 15, 2025

It’s rare that a hybrid driver known for finesse sends up a smoke signal. But Discraft’s Scorch is no ordinary disc. After quietly toiling in the mid-table trenches, it’s now grabbed the rankings by the collar, jumping a staggering 96 places over four weeks to land at #41. A disc with speed and turn like that? No surprise it’s flipping minds as well as flight paths.

While the Scorch stole the headlines with its pyrotechnics, the elegant return of Innova’s Mako3 saw it climb five spots to #9. It’s a bit like your dependable mate who disappears for a while, then shows up at the pub with a fresh haircut and a full trophy cabinet. The Mako3 has quietly become a utility favourite again. Perhaps players are realising that midrange control isn’t optional—it’s survival.

At the top, the charts are less about fireworks and more a lesson in stubborn consistency. The Discraft Buzzz clings to #1 like it was born there. Hex and Destroyer hang tight in the top four. Speaking of, the Destroyer has bumped up to #3, nudging the ever-popular Berg down to #5. That little plummet hasn’t gone unnoticed; while the Berg remains a European darling, perhaps it’s feeling the burn of overstimulation—overuse in one context can lead to fatigue in another.

MVP’s Glitch and Trail each dropped a notch, making way for Innova’s Wraith to power-slide into #6. The Wraith’s move is telling. It’s a disc you grow into, not fall for instantly. Its rise could reflect growing comfort within the community—a kind of flying feedback loop.

Elsewhere, underdog watchers will be thrilled by the quiet reappearance of the Leopard3 at #26. After a 7-week ghosting, it’s popped back into relevance, reminding us all that disc popularity isn’t about linear loyalty. It’s about availability, weather, local heroics, and whatever the bloke on your card was carving lines with last Sunday.

The disc that dropped the hardest? Latitude 64’s Peak, now wandering in the wilderness at #294, proving that even well-balanced putters can fall out of favour sharply, especially when competing with newer, shinier plastic friends.

So what’s next up the fairway? A disc comeback? A shock flop? Or maybe the rise of something oddball like the Capybara (debuting this week at #169)? Tune in next Friday, because in disc golf, the flight never lies.
