The Innova Roc
by Hank Taylor, DiscGolfGuru.com
Great for beginners, and great for experts, the Roc is my absolute favorite disc. If it were the only disc I had, I’d still be a happy golfer. It’s slightly overstable, but can be thrown pretty straight and far when needed. I’ve used the Roc as a distance driver with good results, but the Roc’s pride is in the midrange and approach. It responds perfectly to movements in the wrist and goes precisely where you want it. It’s great for getting around trees and other obstacles in beautiful hyzers and anhyzers (arches); it even rolls pretty good when in a tight spot. Sometimes it may roll too well on a longer shot and roll away from the hole, but that can be compensated for by shooting a little left or throwing more flat and straight. It fades faster than most and tends to curve right for right-backhanders, and curves left, and then roll right, for right-forehanders. I give this disc an A+ and “Best of Breed” in its category.
