Title: What is a floater Disc?
Post by: DougEDawg on June 21, 2005, 08:36:27 AM
Anyone know what a floater disc is?  My girlfriend is writing a graduate paper on disc golf and asked me, "How would you describe a floater disc in order to differentiate from a driver and a putter?"  I'm not quite sure what a floater disc is.

Anyone?

You might need to ask your girlfriend what she meant by that.  I have seen the term used on pdga.com to refer to discs that don't fade at low speeds.

Thanks guys.  Both good answers, but I think Bruce's answer is what she was looking for.
