XCom Zion (XCom Basic)

Who knew that this Xcom base plastic driver would go so far? I'm an intermediate player and I could get this 350+ feet! It flips up from a hyzer release and soars for a long time before fading off at the end. It is a slightly understable distance driver, so if you throw much harder than me, you'll find it goes a lot more to the understable side of things. For beginners, I think it's not the perfect driver, you'll probably find more distance with the Xcom fairway-- but it's a great disc to grow into. Really loving this one!

This driver, along with other XCom discs, tends to come in a lighter weight and in a base plastic to keep it inexpensive and appealing to new players. But compared to some of their other discs, I actually found the Zion to be more useful for my own game. I'm an experienced recreational player and found that the Zion was able to handle a more powerful throw than their other discs and still had a little fade at the end of flight. Thus I found that I could use it to shape my shots into S-curves and throw it at difference speeds for different flight paths. It is a surprisingly nice all-purpose driver. Of course, advanced players probably wouldn't be caught throwing around disc like this in soft plastic, but for the rest of us, it's not a bad disc for recreational rounds.
