How Much Do Disc Golf Discs Cost?

A single disc golf disc usually costs €8–25 in Finland, and the price mainly depends on the plastic type. You can get started for under ten euros, while discs made from premium plastics usually climb above €20. A three-disc starter set typically costs €40–70. Used discs offer the same quality for a clearly lower price.

How much does a single disc golf disc cost?

A regular playable disc golf disc usually costs €8–40 in Finland — but most purchases fall in the €10–25 range. Basic discs found in larger retail stores usually cost around €10–15. Specialist shops and online stores offer a wider selection, with prices starting at a similar level but increasing depending on the plastic type and model.

Special models include Tour Series discs, which are produced in limited runs under professional players’ names. These often cost €25–35 when new. Collectible discs can cost significantly more, but they are their own category and are not usually bought for regular play.

How does plastic type affect the price of a disc golf disc?

Plastic type is the single biggest factor affecting the price — not the disc type itself, meaning whether it is a putter, midrange or driver. The same mold can cost different amounts depending on which plastic it is made from.

• Base plastics (DX, Pro-D, X-Line): €8–15. Affordable, but they wear faster and lose their flight characteristics more quickly after hitting rocks or trees.
• Premium plastics (Champion, Star, Z, ESP, K1): €16–25. More durable and hold their shape longer. The best price-to-durability ratio for active players.
• Special plastics (Glow, Metal Flake, Limited Edition): €20–35. These offer special features or limited-edition aesthetics.

For beginners, base plastic is more than enough. Once you play several times a week, premium plastic pays for itself over time thanks to better durability.

How much does a disc golf starter set cost?

A three-disc starter set — putter, midrange and fairway driver — typically costs €40–70. At that price, you get discs that cover every type of hole in the early stages of the sport.

When building a starter set, you should not optimise only for the cheapest or the most expensive option. Base plastic discs are fully sufficient for your first rounds, and they give you a good feel for different disc types before you invest in premium models. Ready-made disc sets can be cheaper than buying individual discs, but the selection is usually more limited.

Three discs is the right amount to start with — there is no point building a larger bag before your playing style starts to take shape.

Is it worth buying a used disc golf disc?

A used disc golf disc in good condition usually costs €5–12 and is often an excellent choice for both beginners and more experienced players. Used discs are already “seasoned”, meaning their flight characteristics have settled, which can make the flight path easier to predict.

Condition ratings vary between sellers, so it is worth checking whether the disc has cracks or major warping before buying. Online store categories for used discs are usually graded by condition, which makes comparison much easier.

Used discs are especially smart for a starter set, because in the beginning discs often hit trees and rocks — and it hurts less when the disc was bought at a lower price. Explore DiscKing’s disc golf discs — the selection includes both new and used discs for every need.
