This page contains several .step files you can download and print on your 3D Printer. They are freely available under the creative commons license. You can use them however you wish.

For information on how to print these please see the page on printing golf discs. Or, if you’d like to design your own discs see the page on modeling small golf discs. Also, here is an owner’s manual for PLA small golf discs.

These discs are inexpensive to print (about $0.30 in filament or less), but they tie up a printer for a couple of hours or more. So, if you have access to a printer or a friend with a printer you can print as many discs as you want.

For Indoor use, I recommend: a Flexie, a Lofter and a Scimitar.

For outdoor use, I recommend: a Sabre, a Longsword and a Falcon.

If you only want to carry one disc indoors: Fox or Lofter

If you only want to carry one disc outdoors: Sabre or Longsword or Falcon.

Flexie

This is a small disc that flexes well indoors. It’s light and takes a light touch. This was the first disc that really worked well for me. It’s very lightweight and understable, so it is very useful for shaping shots indoors. There is a heavier version of this disc below, called the Fox.

Sabre

This disc has a sharp edge and an undercut bottom. It cuts through the wind. It also has a sharp edge so it isn’t great indoors. It’s very understable.

XXX

This is an excellent general-purpose disc. It works indoors and outdoors. It’s a little understable but not too much.

This disc is similar the Flexie but has more plastic under the front edge making it a bit better of a wing and a little heavier than the Flexie, which makes it a little bit more stable.

Lofter

This disc is very thick with a rounded edge and deeper rim. It makes a good putter because it is slow and heavier. Good for laying up. Not good for distance. Is very understable at speed.

Longsword

This is a big, thin disc. It works well as a driver indoors or outdoors. It has a round edge. It’s fairly stable with enough spin. If you want an even more stable disc, try the Falcon.

Fox

This disc is a good midrange or driver and works better outdoors. It’s heavy for its diameter. It is fairly stable with enough spin.

Falcon

This is the first overstable small golf disc I’ve been able to make. You have to have enough spin or any disc will be understable, but with enough spin this disc is just a little over-stable, which makes it a great driver. But, it’s also light at under 9 grams so it’s more practical for indoor use than the longsword.

The Falcon proved very hard disc to print with just a print base the way the others printed. The failure rate was very high and it took many attempts to get get a print that finished and was usable. It requires supports. So, there is only one .step file and one .3mf file for this disc.

Printing the Falcon requires organic supports

Scimitar

The scimitar is a reliably overstable midrange indoor golf disc. It is too light for use outdoors.

You can download the step file with a print base, and you can download prusaslicer profiles: one with just the print base and one that also has organic supports. Depending on the filament you might have to use organic supports to get a good result.

There is a video series about the design, printing and refinement of this disc:

Other Disc Manufacturers and Disc Libraries

If you’ve got disc designs you’d like to share, upload them to someplace like thingiverse.com or printables.com or another 3D model aggregator or even google drive and send me a link. Or if you have more than one you could, put them all into a public disc library and I will link to it from this page.

Send me email at hoco at smalldiscgolf dot org with a link to your discs or a disc library and I’ll include it below. If this list ever becomes too large, I’ll organize them better.

Please print and play-test your discs before submitting them. Thanks!

Disc Manufacturers

If you manufacture small golf discs I will be happy to put a link to your catalog here. If there gets to be too many I will organize them better.

Send me email at hoco at smalldiscgolf dot org with a link to your disc catalog and I’ll include it below. If this list ever becomes too large, I’ll organize them better.

I have written an open letter to disc manufacturers that invites them to both make and sell small golf discs, but also to use the technology to enable fast prototyping of new disc designs.

Please print and play-test your discs before submitting them. Thanks!

  • Small Disc Golf Depot – I sell all the discs in the Small Disc Golf Library via my shop on Etsy. Proceeds go to help spread the word about small disc golf.
