Anyone heard of or thrown the Reverb? Seems to be a new-ish overstable distance driver from Prodigy. Given flight numbers are 13, 5, 0, 3.5. After trying one today, I pretty much agree with those flight numbers.
Unknown weight. No markings or embossing anywhere on the disc. Definitely not below 170g.
First off, the disc itself looks good. Clear, somewhat gummy plastic. Noticeable dome. Definitely not flat. Rim width seems wider than a Destroyer, but narrower than a Boss or Nuke.
The Reverb flies well, and does what it's supposed to. It'll turn just a smidge on really hard throws, and flies flat decently before fading somewhat heavily late. This disc feels good in the hand, and the gumminess of the plastic helps with grip. Good, but not great, glide. I won't call the Reverb floaty, but it glides adequately for a fast, overstable driver.
Top distance with the Reverb was probably 430'. I had a couple fairly deep rips when I forced the disc over anny and let it flex out some.
Final thoughts: The Reverb is a pretty decent overstable driver from Prodigy. I'm not really a Prodigy fan, but ended up liking this disc. I'd say the Reverb compares well to stuff like Defenders, D1s, Nukes, ETC. Slightly faster and more stable than a Destroyer, but the Reverb isn't so beefy that it can't be thrown far. This disc is suited for guys with big arms who absolutely want to smash. Would I bag it. Yes. I liked throwing the Reverb, and it did what I was asking of it on the course.
Prodigy seems to have produced something decent here. Reverb: 13, 5, -0.5, 3. I imagine this disc will turn more when/if it breaks in. The plastic is nice, better than I'm used to seeing out of Prodigy.
