The Weirdest Disc Golf Creations and Why They Exist
When the Weirdest Disc from Innova first appeared, it completely surprised the disc golf community. Known as the Alien, this oddly shaped disc looked more like a UFO than a disc golf driver. But when you’ve produced as many molds as Innova has, innovation means embracing the unusual — and sometimes, the weird.
By releasing the Weirdest Disc in their lineup, Innova generated curiosity and buzz among players eager to test how these strange designs fly. I tested the Alien myself, and while it isn’t a disc I’d bag regularly, its unusual performance made for a fascinating experience.
In this guide, we’ll explore some of the weirdest disc golf discs ever made — real, purchasable models that push boundaries in design, performance, and fun. Some are surprisingly useful; others are just plain bizarre.
Unique Doomsday Discs – Home of the Weirdest Disc Designs
Doomsday Discs has built a cult following for releasing some of the weirdest disc golf molds on the market. Their Munitions Line includes discs that challenge what’s possible in disc design. Below are five of the strangest (and most entertaining) models they’ve produced.
1. Frag – The Overstable Monster
The Doomsday Frag may be the weirdest disc in terms of flight stability. It’s essentially the “Tilt” of midranges — so overstable that it often flies better upside down. While nearly useless in casual play, it could shine in hurricane-level winds.
2. Landmine – The Boxy Approach Disc
The Landmine features a square-edged, boxy rim that feels as odd as it looks. Surprisingly, it delivers exceptional control for forehand and backhand approaches. It’s weird, yes — but it performs.
3. Depth Charge – Flexibility Redefined
A thinner, more flexible version of the Landmine, the Depth Charge is foldable, torque-resistant, and soft enough to stick where it lands. This creative evolution earns it a top spot among the weirdest discs you can buy.
4. Bunker Buster – The Giant Fairway Disc
Imagine a fairway driver with a dinner-plate diameter — that’s the Bunker Buster. Measuring 24 cm across, it’s almost too big for a standard disc golf bag. Fun to throw, hilarious to own, and perfect as a white elephant gift.
5. WMD – Weapon of Maximum Distance
The WMD (Weapon of Maximum Distance) is a behemoth of a disc with a rim so wide it’s practically ungrippable. Illegal for PDGA play but thrilling for casual rounds, it’s another example of how Doomsday embraces the weirdest disc design philosophy possible.
Discraft Joins the Weird Disc Revolution
Even Discraft couldn’t resist experimenting with strange molds. After mastering nearly every standard design, they’ve ventured into unusual configurations. Their Zone GT Battle Pack features two versions of their popular Zone putter — one with a groove-top rim and another with a thumbtrack top.
Players can vote on which version they prefer via QR code, and the winner will become a permanent addition. This playful, interactive concept cements Discraft’s place in the Weirdest Disc Golf hall of fame.
Honorable Mention Unique Discs
- Innova Sonic – It’s got the same weird top that the Alien has, but this disc has been around disc golf longer than I have, so for me, it’s kind of normal.
- Discraft Banger GT – You guessed it. It’s a putter with the strange groove top rim.
- Elevation Discs – All of them. Elevation Discs are all made out of a super floppy plastic blend.
- Divergent Discs Stay Put Plastic Discs – Like the elevation discs, these are super floppy. The Golem is REALLY overstable.
- Kastaplast Berg – This disc is unique, with a weird groove and ultra grippy plastic but avid disc golfers love it because it flies like a brick with very little glide. If you like the Berg, stay tuned because it’s new overstable brother the Berg X will be available soon.
- Aerobie Sharpshooter #1 – These discs are technically out of production (and for good reason because they were flat out terrible). It’s no surprise that Infinite Discs still has some in stock. But the notches on top are unique and they make a fun whistle when you throw them. The Epic was another crazy disc, but it actually had a useful place. If you can find an Epic these days, it will sell for $100+ on the disc golf black market.
- Lonestar Discs Superdillo – Like the Bunker Buster, the Superdillo is a huge wide diameter disc that doesn’t easily fit in the normal disc golf bag. Not only does the disc look ridiculous, but wait until you check out its flight numbers.
