My 10 year old wants to start playing disc golf. Do I buy a starter set or give me the best 3 discs to start and play and he will continue to want to keep in his bag so it’s not wasted money.
Real golf is way cooler
>>258263go to a used section of a disc golf store or a play it again and have him grab a few putters and midranges. cost effective, tons of variety, and he will have a better time with lower speed discs. once he finds some stuff he likes/doesn't lose then buy new.
>>258346Just get him a nice proxy/pure/whatever.
the quick, cheap & easy entry point is the Innova starter kit (aviar, shark, leopard version). walmart.com or amazon always has them <$25. Well rounded beginner disc choices and they usually come in lighter 150g weight for kids. I could think of a few autistic gripes about this set, but they don't really matter for a 10yo. Best selling set for 30+ years for a reason.If you have a small boutique shop nearby, I'm sure the staff would be happy to help find good discs for a kid and give some tips.
>>258294everyone i know who's ever shown an interest in disc golf has been a fat unathletic stoner
if you wanna do the cheapest option, just get him a straight flying midrange and if his interest keeps up, buy him a few more different kindsif you wanna spend a little bit more, get a lower speed fairway driver like the latitude explorer, and compliment that with a straight midrange like an innova nova or a latitude claymore, then a basic putter like the discmania p2 or p1. with just those 3 discs you can go very far, especially as a kid
