Type and Recommended Use
The Beetle functions as a throw-and-catch disc and a finesse utility midrange for disc golf. It is ideal for technique training, warm-ups before rounds, gentle anhyzer approaches and touch shots. It also works perfectly for casual catch sessions in the park or between holes, making it a true crossover disc for fun and functional use.
