Lone Star Distance Driver 11|5|-1|3

The Lone Star Discs Nimitz is a popular stable to overstable distance driver in the Lone Star Discs lineup.

• Flight Numbers: It has flight numbers of 11 Speed, 5 Glide, -1 Turn, and 3 Fade.
• Stability: Described as stable to overstable, meaning it will exhibit a slight turn when thrown hard but will reliably fade back at the end of its flight.
• Placement in the Lineup: It's designed to fit perfectly between the Curl (less stable) and Warbird (more overstable) models from Lone Star Discs.
• Versatility: The Nimitz can be used by both experienced throwers who can get some turn out of it, and also players with moderate arm speed who will find it to be a reliable go-to distance driver. It's good for shaping various shots, including hyzer flips, controlled turnovers, and forehand shots that require reliable fade.
• Comparison to Other Discs: Some reviewers have compared the Nimitz to a slightly beat-in Wraith or a Trespass, but noted it may have more turn than a typical Wraith.
• Plastic Options: The Nimitz is available in various plastic types, including:
  • Alpha: A durable and smooth premium plastic that is firm with a slick feel.
  • Bravo: A flexible, gummy, and resilient plastic, great for cold weather or extra grip, similar to Alpha but with more flex.
  • Founders: A clear, durable, and stiffer premium plastic with a metal-flake finish and Tour Series stamp.
  • Glow: A plastic similar in feel and stability to Bravo but glows brightly when charged.
  • Lima: A lightweight, springy, and grippy plastic suitable for younger players or those seeking lighter discs.
• Named After: The disc is named in honor of the Fredericksburg native, Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz.
