Westside Hatchet Flight Chart
The Westside Hatchet is an understable fairway driver with flight numbers of 9 | 6 | -2 | 1. Designed for effortless distance and smooth turnovers, the Hatchet offers exceptional glide and control for players of all skill levels. It’s the perfect disc for those seeking easy hyzer flips, tailwind bombs, or long turnover shots that hold their line without fading out too early.
Flight Path for Beginner Players
Beginners will love the Hatchet for its ability to fly far with minimal effort. When thrown flat, it flips up and glides straight before finishing gently. In lighter VIP Air or Origio plastic, it’s one of the easiest distance drivers to control, making it an ideal step up from midranges or starter drivers.
Flight Chart Insights for Intermediate Throwers
For intermediate players, the Hatchet provides controllable turn and impressive glide. It shines for long, shaping drives in the woods and consistent hyzer flips. The Tournament and VIP plastics offer stability to prevent excessive turnover, making it a great complement to neutral or overstable fairway drivers.
Flight Numbers and Path for Advanced Players
Advanced players can use the Hatchet as a turnover or roller disc. When powered up, it turns smoothly and holds long anhyzer lines without burning over. Its consistent glide and late fade make it a go-to for finesse distance or tailwind drives where precision matters more than brute strength.
Forehand Flight Path and Utility Use
While the Hatchet’s shallow rim makes it comfortable for forehands, it’s not built for high-torque forehand throws. However, touch flicks and smooth control forehands will benefit from its glide and gentle turn, especially in woods or narrow fairways.
