Gateway Assassin – Flight Chart
The Gateway Assassin is a glidey, neutral-stable control driver with flight numbers of 9 | 6 | -1 | 1. Known for its effortless distance and precision, it bridges the gap between fairway and distance drivers. The Assassin thrives on smooth throws, offering long, straight flights with reliable but gentle fade. Available in SureGrip, Diamond, Platinum, and Evolution plastics, it adapts easily to any throwing style or condition.
Beginner Lines: Straight and Forgiving
New players will appreciate the Assassin’s easy glide and balanced turn. Thrown flat, it flies straight with mild fade. Released on hyzer, it flips to flat and pushes forward beautifully—ideal for developing control and distance without overpowering.
Flight Chart Cues for Intermediates
At moderate power, the Assassin delivers effortless S-curves and hyzer-flip precision. Expect a neutral flight that holds its line before finishing forward. It’s a reliable choice for tunnel shots, low ceilings, and smooth fairway control drives up to 350 feet.
Advanced Shaping and Speed Control
Experienced players can finesse a wide range of shapes—laser-straight shots, controlled turnovers, or slow-turning hyzers. The Assassin’s glide lets it stay in the air longer than many discs in its class, making it an excellent woods or placement driver. Diamond plastic resists turn better for full-power throws, while SureGrip offers touch and feel for technical control.
Forehand and Utility Use
Forehand throwers find the Assassin comfortable in hand thanks to its moderate rim and neutral flight. It’s ideal for controlled flicks that don’t need excessive fade, forehand turnovers, and placement drives that demand both touch and distance.
