A driver is used for teeing off and long fairway drives.  Midrange discs are for the shots that fall between the drives and putts.  A putt and approach disc for just that – putting, and if needed – approaching.  New players have options; they can start with just one multipurpose disc or a small set, typically consisting of a driver or two, a midrange, and a putter.  Many established players will carry a variety of discs in the three primary categories for a range of driving, approaching, and putting situations.A new player seeking a midrange with a reliable flightpath may like the Shark, Mako3, Atlas, and Wombat.Predictably straight flying putters such as the Polecat, Birdie, Dart , and Nova are suggested for beginners, as well as the Aviar.
