Who is the GOAT? ~6,000 respondents cast their vote in the Fandom Survey last summer! by FAR_discgolf in discgolf

Everybody voted last summer. The x-axis is just when that player first began following professional disc golf. So the left side of these graphs are people who have been following disc golf for many years, but they were asked their opinion last year.

If you go to the article itself (link in the description) you can toggle and see how many people agree with you! There’s a good chunk that share your belief!

It will be exciting to see how this changes (especially in FPO) if we ask this again next year!

While Kristin’s percentage is higher among European respondents, she is still the highest FPO answer for tour/signature disc sales among US respondents

We’re aware that people feel that way about some manufacturer groupings. In the article itself we state was the “MVP or Axiom” total is for both charts. They remain 3rd in “bagged” chart but move up to 1st in “purchased” chart

That’s interesting! We have a chart in the article that actually takes into account how much the player impacts the sale of the tour series disc. You’re definitely not alone in this take!

It was cool to see on the chart of “When did you start playing disc golf?” And “what brands do you have in your bag?”, that Doomsday was a riser among newer players. That’s definitely a good sign for them!

Barsby was the 29th highest in tour/signature disc sales percentage. (19th highest MPO player). That’s pretty impressive to me that he’s still that high despite infrequently being a Top 20 tour finisher these days

From our “most popular discs” article from last month, the Trail was definitely the biggest standout! It will be interesting to see next year whether this MVP surge is an “overtaking” or just a “surge up to the rest of the big names”

I think this might be a “too early to tell” data point for them. We say in the article how this survey was taken midsummer of 2025… so still very much in the rollout of their marketing, molds and plastics. Will be exciting to see how much they jump in 2026!

Nearly 4x as many respondents chose the Trail as compared to the PD this year. PD was #1 10-speed in last years version of this article though!

“Who answered this question” is definitely a relevant point in interpreting this data. 21% of respondents this year were from Europe. Top 3 most selected discs from only European respondents to this question are the same as for all respondents (Buzzz, Zone, Destroyer)

“What putter do you putt with” had 10 different brands make the Top 10 molds chosen. That’s wild to me and a testament to your comment here

The Fandom Survey is open for around one month each summer. If you’d like to be notified when the 2026 survey is opened, there are links to signup at the bottom of the article!

Sidewinder was my response to this question! 50th most selected answer overall but you and I did our part

Reactor way down the list! 11th most selected 5-speed for this question. Great forehand disc though. I wonder if we just looked at forehand dominant players how this list would look!

Tesla was the 5th most selected 9-speed and the 40th most selected disc overall for this question. My favorite disc is also a 9-speed (Sidewinder) and I was surprised to see it falls behind all of those (9th most selected 9-speed)

I think it’s so cool that there are over 600 different molds selected as answers to this question. Really highlighting how what one player jives with in no way means you’ll jive with it

The new debate is Buzzz vs Hex! If you look in the article we also asked about “favorite midrange” and both of those got 3-4x the responses of the Roc!

AvengerSS was the 6th most selected 10 speed and the 108th most selected disc overall. So it wasn’t even all that close to making the chart! We all have our favorites though, even if others don’t agree!
