The Philo Brathwaite Star Destroyer routinely turns unlikely shots into your personal web gems.
How this batch of Star Destroyers feel: Noticeable dome.
More about the player: Nowadays most know Philo Brathwaite for his fun and engaging commentary for pro tour coverage. Though Brathwaite has slowed down his competitive play the last few years, he has shown he can still hang with the best like when he won the US Masters in 2023. And, you can’t mention Brathwaite without mentioning his Albatross at the 2016 Beaver State Fling (Thrown with a Destroyer). He amazingly finished the 850-foot par 5 in only 2 throws. And, it was caught on tape during Central Coast Disc Golf’s coverage.
More about the disc: The Destroyer is a very fast, very overstable distance driver meant for advanced players. Thrown with the proper amount of power, the Destroyer disc flies straight followed by a slight turn for incredible distance until its mighty fade brings it back to the ground.
Why only available in 165-169 grams? Because that’s the weight of the Destroyer that landed the Albatross.

How the Destroyer flies: Boom goes the dynamite. The Destroyer is a very fast, very overstable distance driver meant for advanced players.

Pro plastic provides excellent all-weather grip. Typically softer and more flexible than DX plastic. As far as durability, it’s a step up from DX, but not quite the level of Champion and Star. Try the Pro Destroyer if you can’t handle the Destroyer’s overstability in Champion, Star, or Halo Star plastic. It is typically less overstable than the premium plastics, plus Pro plastic typically has more glide. Great for all out distance!
The Pro Destroyer is great for:
Full Send backhand or forehand shots for players with average power.
Big hyzer and flex shots
Overhand huks
Inclement weather
