Prodigy D4 Max Flight Chart
The Prodigy D4 Max is an understable, glide-heavy distance driver designed to help players achieve maximum turnover distance with less effort. With flight numbers of 12 | 6 | -4 | 1, the D4 Max excels at hyzer-flips, long drifting turnovers, and tailwind bombs. The shallow-feeling Max rim makes it easier to grip than many 12-speed drivers, and reviewers consistently highlight its huge glide and beginner-friendly flight compared to other high-speed molds.
Flight Path for Beginners
For newer players stepping into faster drivers, the D4 Max offers one of the easiest distance lines available at this speed class. Expect a noticeable high-speed turn and a minimal fade, often resulting in long, drifting flights that carry farther than more stable drivers. It is also far more forgiving than most 12-speed discs, especially in tailwinds or open fairways.
Hyzer-Flips & Distance Lines for Intermediate Throwers
Intermediate arms will see the D4 Max perform exactly as intended: an effortless hyzer-flip to flat, followed by long, gliding drift before a soft finish. The understability makes it excellent for shaping wide S-curves or carving open-distance lines. Many reviewers mention that it is surprisingly controllable when thrown with clean nose-down form.
Advanced Player Flight Numbers & Shot Shaping
Advanced players can tap into the D4 Max for massive turnover drives, roller lines, and tailwind maximum distance. Its -4 turn rating is accurate—power throwers will easily push it into long-turning flights with minimal fade. However, it can be extremely flippy if thrown flat into headwinds, so angle control is essential.
Forehand Flight Characteristics
Forehand throwers will find the D4 Max touchy but valuable in specific situations. When thrown with smooth spin and light hyzer, it can produce long, arching turnovers or gentle flip-to-flat drives. Over-torqueing it will cause early rollovers, so it’s best suited for controlled distance rather than power flicks.

Putthead Notes
The D4 Max is one of the easiest high-speed drivers to shape. If you rely on glide and touch rather than brute force, this disc can unlock distance you didn’t realize you had. It’s especially excellent for tailwinds and hyzer-flip drives where you want the disc to carry for days.
