The Pterodactyl is a manageable driver for young disc golfers. The rim isn't too wide, thus a high-speed release is not necessary. However, it still lands in the "distance driver" category and provides a great gateway to longer, more impressive throws down the fairway. Like other Dino Discs, it is lightweight, floats in water, and is aimed at young players or those players without a lot of arm speed.
NOTE: The Pterodactyl is made with the mold for the ABC Secret Weapon.
Dino Discs
Dino Discs is a boutique disc brand that offers ultra lightweight discs. Discs in the 100 - 140 gram range work great for children who want to join their friends and family on the course. They are also great options for senior players or anybody who has a slow arm speed but wants to throw a variety of different disc types. Dino Discs are made in a collaborative effort with multiple manufacturers. They include some molds from ABC Discs and some molds from Gateway, with fun, colorful plastic blends courtesy of Zing and Gateway.
Note: While Dino Discs use a more light weight plastic in existing PDGA approved molds, they are not approved by the PDGA for use in sanctioned events.
