  • Speedi 3

    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 3

    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. ×

The illustrated disc flight line is based on the manufacturer field testing results, during its development process.

Product Description

The MVP Electron Atom Soft Disc Golf Putt & Approach is a fantastic chain hunter or a disc you can control on shorts shots from the tee. It's very neutral and straight in its flight and has really nice glide. As a soft disc it's a little more gummy in your hands and will be a little more glidey and less stable right out of the box.

The flight path of the Soft Atom from MVP is very straight. As a putting putter you can throw it directly at the chains and expect it to have a very soft hyzer at the end of the flight. Virtually straight from 50 feet and in, you will love putting this disc. As a throwing putter it's going to have a very long and straight glide that results in holding whatever line you put it on. It's a fantastic anhyzer or hyzer approach disc if you need to rely on the glide to get there.

Electron plastic from MVP is the baseline blend at the lowest cost. It beats in quickly but is the best choice for putters because it has a very tacky grip. This is the soft version of the plastic so you can depress your thumb in and get a little extra grip right away. It also is the least stable, so if you're looking for a little less hyzer than normal this is the choice for you. It's also ready to be a throwing putter straight away.

The Atom has been a fantastic mold of putter since it debuted in 2014 and is the choice of many MVP sponsored players. It's a straight flyer that you can bang chains with or you can use for approach. Snag one of these today!
