  • Speedi 5

    The first number is the speed of the disc. It can range from 1-14. Putters are rated 1-3 and are designed to function at low speeds any player can use. Mid range discs are 4-5 and require more speed when thrown to achieve their desired results. A fairway driver will be speed 6-8, these discs fly mostly straight. Discs that are speed 9 and above are classified as distance drivers. Throwing a distance driver takes a significant amount of power to get up to speed, players are rewarded with additional distance if they learn to control these discs. New players are cautioned that speed does not equal distance. Due to the difficulty of controlling higher speed discs, a beginner could find that a light weight disc with a speed of 6 or 7 could fly farther for them than a max distance driver with a speed of 13. In fact most new players should learn by throwing putters only so they can develop the proper form. After a few weeks they'll begin to get reliable results and are ready ×

  • glidei 5

    This second rating is numbered 1 – 6. Glide describes a disc’s ability to remain in flight. Discs with higher glide ratings will fly further than discs rated lower in this category. A high glide rating is good when the goal is distance, but can have the wrong effect for putts and approach shots. Sometimes overshooting the basket can be worse than not making it far enough. Low glide ratings such as 1 or 2 are popular with upshot putters because they don't fly for distance but for a little extra control. Glide is different for different kinds of discs as well. A putter with a glide of 4 will stay airborne much longer than distance drivers with a glide of 4 ×

  • Turni 0

    Third in Innova’s flight rating system is turn. Turn is rated from 1 to -5?, with -5 being the most understable. The lower the numer, the more striking turn will result. A newer, slower-throwing disc golfer using an understable disc with a ‘high’ negative turn rating will enjoy great distance, as the disc isn’t going to fade as quickly. Also, players whose farthest throw is 200 feet or less probably won’t notice any turn in the flightpath. Once a player gets more speed and power, they will see their understable discs start turning to the right at the beginning of the flight before fading to the left at the end. Discs rated -4 or -5 are popularly used for rollover or roller throws by experienced players. Some discs have 0 turn which means that they'll start to fade when they run out of speed during the flight and at no point will they turn. It's important to carry at least one disc with a high turn rating in your bag for rounds. ×

  • Fadei 1

    This last rating category ranges from 0 to 5; with a disc rated 0 being the straightest finishing, while a disc rated 5 fading the most during the last portion of the flight. Even discs rated lowest in turn will still ‘fade’ as the disc slows at the end of the flight. A disc with a higher fade rating is useful for a hole with a dogleg. Straight finishing discs are great for control, discs with little fade are normal. If you're a Right-hand backhand thrower you'll find that almost every disc wants to fade to the left at the end of your flight. Discs with a 4 or 5 fade rating are excellent in heavy winds. They sacrifice a little of the distance but make sure that the disc won't do anything unexpected. Discs with a low fade are more susceptible to being affected by the wind. ×

Product Description

The Discmania Chroma MD3 Eagle McMahon Iron Samurai 4 is a stable to overstable midrange. You can throw it forehand or backhand and get a long straight flight with lots of glide. The stamp features a Samurai looking down at his two swords. The words "Iron" and "Samurai" are at the top and bottom with the number 4 underneath an Eagle with outstretched wings. The entire disc is covered with spears, swords, scythes, pikes, and tridents that line the outside facing in. This is a work of art on the disc. Many of these limited edition discs are going to end up on the walls of collectors because of how intricate they are. This run of discs is different from the Iron Samurai 3's because the top is flatter.

The flight path of the MD3 is straight for a majority of the flight with a slow fade at the end. With high glide it's a great choice for tunnel shots, and pretty much everything 150-300 feet. It's going to have a stable flight so you can power up on the disc and give it a little early turn knowing that it's going to hold and flex back a little bit. Or you can throw it nice and smooth for expertly placed 250 foot shots. The MD3 handles soft forehand shots well or backhands pretty well. You'll see plenty of amateur and pro players throwing this disc off the tee because it gets great distance and is very reliable. With the high glide, expect a slow fade that takes the disc on hyzer for a bit. This is the kind of disc you can swing out high on a hyzer and let it gently swing back. The MD3 is perfect for shot shaping in the woods.

Chroma plastic from Discmania is a newer blend. It's super durable and premium, with a swirly pearly look to it. It's stiff and should give you a little more grip than just traditional C-Line blend plastic. It's perfect for the Iron Samurai 4 because you'll be throwing this disc hard and you want something that will last you a long time.

This is one of the most versatile midrange discs in the game. Throw it flat for straight shots with a little hyzer tail finish, throw it on hyzer for a long slow reliable shot, or flip it over and let it pan out to flat. The Iron Samurai 4 is sure to fly off the shelves here at Sabattus Disc Golf, so snag one of these limited edition discs while you can!
