What Disc Golfers Are Buying: 4-Week Roundup Ending Jan 18, 2026

What Disc Golfers Are Buying: 4-Week Roundup Ending Jan 18, 2026

If there were ever a mic-drop moment in disc data, this is it. The Latitude 64° Sapphire didn’t just climb the charts—it broke altitude records. Up 45 places in just four weeks, it’s now perched loftily at No. 1, according to the latest DiscList rankings. Four weeks ago, most players hadn’t whispered its name in months. Now? It’s being bagged, bragged about, and clearly bought in droves.

The Rise of the Floaty Flyers

The Sapphire isn’t alone in its flight path. The Innova Roadrunner zipped up 30 spots to claim the current No. 2 slot. That’s some serious tailwind. What’s interesting isn’t just their raw movement—it’s what these discs have in common: high-turn, understable builds made for easy distance. The kind your mate with a noodle arm swears by.

This points to a shift in how players are shopping. During cold-weather months when power fades and fingers fumble, something like a Roadrunner or Sapphire starts to look mighty appealing. Behaviourally, we tend to overcorrect when we’ve lost confidence in our throw—gravitating toward discs that promise forgiveness in flight.

Meanwhile, In The Land of Fairways…

The Teebird 3 is having quite the glow-up, vaulting 12 spots into eighth. It’s a fairway driver that’s never been flashy, but it offers predictability—a trait that gains value each winter mis-release. Similarly, the TL and Undertaker also bumped up with double-digit gains. One could argue that the Mom Jeans of disc golf—simple, safe, slightly boring—are back in vogue.

Who Got Left at the Teepad?

Of course, not every disc is enjoying the seasonal spotlight. The Discraft Zeus nose-dived from No. 1 straight to 26. That’s Plummet Central. Could be supply issues. But more likely, it’s buyer fatigue. When everyone owns one, who’s left to buy it?

Buzzz OS also took a 13-place nap, and even the Anax slipped backward. These dips suggest the beefy high-speed crowd may be in hibernation for now. Or perhaps folks are just tired of torque-fighting overstable mammoths.

Putters and Midranges Stay the Course

The Luna dropped slightly to fifth, but what’s 2 spots between friends? It’s still one of the most complete putters out there, and its standard deviation is almost laughably tight—precisely the opposite of my putting in January.

Looking Ahead: Winds Could Shift Again

Kastaplast’s Guld and Berg X debuted irresistibly high and stayed put, while Discmania’s Method and the new MD3 showed up like they’d never left. Whether these were launch-hyped splurges or signs of longer-term loyalty, time will tell. Come next month’s drop, we’ll see if soft plastic hearts melt—or freeze right up again.

One thing’s clear: in the fickle game of disc buying, consistency is rare, but surprises are standard. See you on the next list drop—fingers warmed, wallets emptied.
