Discus Selection
What is the best discus for sale? It depends...
There is a misconception that the most expensive discus with the highest rim weight will travel a greater distance for all throwers; this is simply incorrect.Â
Beginning throwers should use lower rim weight implements because they cannot rotate the discus off the hand fast enough. A lower rim weight discus will not spin as quickly, but the flight is more stable and consistent. The best discus for sale for beginners are typically lower rim weight discuses.Â
More advanced throwers should select an implement with a higher rim weight to release the discus with more rotation. Each thrower should experiment with different rim weights and discus types to find the ideal implement. The ideal discus for sale for more advanced throwers have a higher rim weight.
Throws Pro has a list of recommended discuses for sale based distance, however, every thrower has a different style and the best discus for each thrower varies.
