Ever wondered and asked yourself: "What's the best Innova disc golf distance driver?", but don't know the answer to? I've been wondering the same thing, so I decided to ask Reddit r/discgolf users and a few other Facebook disc golf group users the same question. I compiled a list of 30 most famous Innova disc golf distance drivers throughout time. Starting from Ape, Archon, Beast, Boss and finishing with Viking, Vulcan, Wraith and Xcaliber and everything inbetween, such as Shryke, Destroyer, Tern, Firebird and etc. And here are the results for the question "What's the best Innova disc golf distance driver?" voted by 1255 disc golfers. #1 - THE BEST Innova Distance Driver - Innova Wraith Innova Wraith is THE BEST Innova Distance Driver getting a total of 203 votes out of 1255, that's an astonishing 16% of the total votes. So, why is the Wraith the best Innova distance driver? Mainly due to two reasons, the Innova Wraith is a beginner friendly distance driver, but also widely used by the professional disc golfers. The disc is usually used for throwing long hyzerflips and is loved by the beginners due to it's understability. The DX plastic suits best for beginners as it's very cheap and grippy. If you are looking for more durable plastic, I'd recommend checking out the Halo Star plastic, Champion plastic or Star plastic. 🛒 Check Price on Amazon 🛒 Check Price on InfiniteDiscs The runner-up aka 2nd Best Innova Distance Driver - Innova Destroyer Innova Destroyer is probably one of the most iconic disc golf discs out there. If you haven't heard about Innova Destroyers, do you even disc golf? It has been an extremely close race between the Wraith and the Destroyer for the title of the best Innova disc golf distance driver as they constantly switched between the #1 and #2 spot. But eventually the Wraith took the numero uno spot and the Destroyer came in 2nd. The Destroyer also got more than 16% of the total votes, receiving a total of 201 votes out of 1255, that's only 2 votes less than the Innova Wraith! That's one hell of a close race! As I mentioned before, Innova Destroyer is probably the most iconic disc golf distance driver out there. It has been and still is a go-to distance driver for most of the Innova professional disc golf players and amateurs all around the world. The Destroyer suits ideally for both forehand and backhand drives off the tee and even on the fairway. The previous Paul McBeth Innova Destroyers were quite overstable and handled the wind extremely well, but it required a big arm to get any distance out of it. As soon as Ricky Wysocki rejoined the team Innova, they redesigned the Destroyer a bit, making it just a little bit less overstable than it was before. With the new redesigned flight path the Innova Destroyer really came to life and quickly became #1 selling disc on InfiniteDiscs.com. 🛒 Check Price on Amazon 🛒 Check Price on InfiniteDiscs The 3rd Best Innova Distance Driver - Innova Firebird Finishing up the best Innova disc golf distance drivers TOP3 is the Innova Firebird. Receiving 117 votes, that's 9% of the total votes. Firebird, unlike the first two, is a fairway driver, but a driver nonetheless. Innova Firebird is a very overstable disc golf driver and has a massive fading hook at the end. That's why it can be used to tackle all sorts of windy conditions and still remain super reliable. Some Innova Firebirds are extremely valuable amongts collectors. A few of them have been sold for more than 1000$ a DISC! Which is INSANE!
