Prodigy MX-1 Flight Chart

The Prodigy MX-1 is a very overstable midrange engineered for absolute control, wind resistance, and predictability. With flight numbers of 5 | 2 | 0 | 4, the MX-1 delivers a low-glide, torque-resistant flight that refuses to turn, even under elite power.

Unique Notes About the Prodigy MX-1

Designed as Prodigy’s most overstable midrange, built to handle extreme torque and headwinds.
Ideal for forehand players who need a midrange that won’t flip when thrown hard.
Extremely reliable hyzer-flighting disc with minimal glide and a pronounced late fade.
Popular as a “control forehand” mid for precision approaches under 300 feet.
Strong finish without wild skips—excellent for tight landing zones and shaping predictable angles.

MX-1 Flight Path for Beginners

The Prodigy MX-1 is not designed for beginner distance, but it can serve as a useful utility disc. Expect an immediate, strong hyzer and very little glide. Newer players can use it for short, reliable fades when they need the disc to get down quickly without drifting offline.

How the MX-1 Flies for Intermediate Players

Intermediate players will appreciate the MX-1’s ability to fight wind and maintain stability regardless of release angle. Thrown backhand, it pushes forward briefly before fading hard every time. On forehands, the MX-1 shines—smooth, torque-resistant, and point-and-shoot stable for approaches and shorter tee shots.

Advanced Flight Characteristics & Shot Shaping

Advanced throwers can power into the MX-1 with confidence. It will not turn, even on anhyzer releases, instead holding its line before sweeping into a heavy, predictable fade. In technical woods golf, players use it for forced flex lines, overstable dumps, skip-controlled approaches, and ground-play-limited landings.

MX-1 Flight Path for Forehand Shots

Forehand players rate the MX-1 as one of Prodigy’s most workable overstable mids. Its low glide helps it stick the landing without dangerous skips, while its overstability provides clean, accurate lines with minimal wobble. It’s especially useful for touch forehands under 250 feet and flex forehands that must finish reliably.
