Discraft Archer Flight Chart
The Discraft Archer lists flight numbers of 5 | 4 | −4 | 1. It’s a touch-friendly, understable control mid/fairway built for hyzer-flips, effortless turnovers, and straight laser lines at modest power. Beginners appreciate its easy glide, while experienced players use it to shape precise woods shots and long, drifting approaches without a hard finish.
Archer Flight Path for Beginners
If you’re newer or throw with moderate speed, the Archer flies straight with a gentle turn and soft finish. A slight hyzer release will stand up to flat, giving you controllable distance without fighting left at the end.
Flight Chart for Intermediate Players
At typical rec–intermediate power, expect easy hyzer-flips, smooth turnovers that hold, and point-and-shoot approaches. It excels on low-ceiling lines and technical fairways where glide and minimal fade matter.
Advanced & Pro Shot Shaping (Flight Numbers in Practice)
Power throwers can throw the Archer on baby hyzer to carve long, neutral flights or release flat for intentional turn. It’s a finesse tool: pair angle control with clean spin to park late-turn tunnel shots and standstill woods drives.
Forehand Touch Lines with Archer
For short-range forehands, the shallow feel helps clean releases. Use light hyzer to counter the natural turn; you’ll get gentle pan flights and soft landings without a dumpy fade.

Puttheads Notes
Originally a 2016 Ace Race mold, the Archer’s shallow, comfortable rim suits smaller hands and touch throwers. Think “easy button” for hyzer-flip to straight and drifting turnovers.
