    The Pathfinder is an excellent midrange that can be counted on for a consistent, straight flight down the fairway with only minimal end fade. Its excellence in flight can only be matched by the beauty of the plastic and stamps.

    My Flight Ratings: 5/4.5/0/2.5 Neutral Throwing Distance: 150 Straight Score: Slightly Overstable

    Low power and flat this disc will Straight with this light fade land pretty soft without much skipping or rolling. If you throw it a little high and give it time it will have a surprising amount of turn. Throw it high and a little anny and will be like a longer Zone, throw it straight and flat it will fly like a more overstable Buzz. If I could only use one mid-range in my bag this would be it

    As a person who likes top throw straight shots more than anything this disc fits my style perfectly. When thrown flat with power it will fly laser straight with a slight fade at the end. Thrown with hyzer it will hold that angle and push and after beating in for awhile you can even get a little flip up and turn out of this disc.

    I think the Pathfinder is a great disc for all ability levels. For beginners with lower arm speeds, this disc will fly straight for a while before ending with a little fade at the end. For more intermediate/advanced players, this disc is perfect for a hyzer flip and will go straight for days, finishing with little to no fade. This is my go-to disc for tight wooded shots and any shot that I need a straight flyer.

    What more can I say but Awesome disc!  It will hold whatever angle you put it on and go.... for a while.  I would almost give this disc a 6 for glide because it likes to go.  Easily hits long 300' tunnel shots with a very moderate fade on a slight hyzer release.  This does everything you want a neutral midrange to do.  After one round I fell in love and this disc will have a home in my bag for a long time

    The pathfinder was a quintessential midrange in the Thought Space Lineup. I went into my first few throws expecting the pathfinder to be exactly like a buzzz or any other workhorse type midrange that can be thrown flat with the expected late finish. My expectations were met and probably surpassed with this disc. I think the pathfinder is a bit more stable than a buzzz but very similar and it honestly could replace a ton of peoples go to midrange after just one round. The hand feel was quite amazing with it being not deep or too shallow but the perfect depth to keep a power grip comfortable. I think Thought Space has not only knocked it out of the park with their stamp designs but also the feel of their plastics. I felt like the pathfinder was the first disc I held and noticed how great the plastic felt in the hand and just how good the disc was in my hand. I have gone through a lot of thoughts on whether the pathfinder will replace my buzzz's and I have been slowly going towards giving the pathfinder a try. If you are looking to try another workhorse stable midrange check out the pathfinder because it will hold any line you need it to and it will still have the finish you want with a workhorse disc.

    I love this disc! This is almost exactly like the Buzzz. It feels amazing on my hand, and it flies very straight. The only problem I ran into is that with just a few hits, the disc is already more understandable for my liking. I wish it could have stayed stable for longer. The crazy thing is that the damage is not visible in the disc. Besides that, I would recommend it for any level of disc golfer since everyone can throw a Buzzz.

    I only bag 2 mid ranges. A Kaxe for a slightly faster, overstable option and now the Pathfinder for a reliably straight flier with some easy, extra distance compared to my approach discs. Other discs I tried in order to fill this slot were the Buzzz, Mako 3, Anubis, and Chariot. None of them worked great for me or felt just right for some reason. The Pathfinder in the Ethereal plastic just feels super smooth in the hand and it releases extremely smooth as well. Backhand for me, the disc glides very straight for a long while before fading gently to the ground. Great disc and amazing stamp as well!

    This pathfinder has glide for days! One of my favorite discs hands down, let alone midranges. Reliable distance and fade. Anywhere around 230-280ft and this is my go to.

    Great mid. It's almost identical in feel and flight to a L64 Compass. Super straight with a touch of fade at the end of the flight. Dependable.

    Despite what other people have said, I don't really feel like this disc is a buzzz. I would say this is a touch more overstable in the ehtereal plastic than a buzzz and slightly slower. It's been my go-to approach mid for a while, but I think eventually I'll go back to a buzzz.

    I bought this and a mint discs mustang to try out not expecting them to be the exact same disc. They are, so if you like the stamp on the mint mustang better get it, it's the same. This disc was flippier than I expected. I was thinking it would be like a buzzz based on the flight numbers, but it consistently turned over for me. Even a little flippier than my buzzz SS (best slightly understable mid in the game). Plastic as with all MVP molded discs was fantastic. I don't think I'll be bagging this because I'm not much of a turnover thrower, prefer to throw forehands for right finishing shots. And it was a bit too touchy for me. But I think it will work great for lots of people. I would put it close to a Discraft meteor, and a bit more stable than a mako3.

    It's a Buzzz.  Nothing wrong with that.  The plastic is great, the stamp is sick, what's not to like?

    Straight. Flat. Long. These are the three words you will be using when you describe the pathfinder. I can get this disc 300 feet out at 85% power without the slightest turn and just a very tiny hint of fade right before it hits the ground (or chains, if you're better than I am). This disc is 100% a 6 glide, not a 5 like the numbers say, but I love it because it is hard to find discs that glide so well at high elevation. The most beautiful thing about this disc, though, is that you can put some real power behind it and it doesn't even think about turning. I love Buzzz'z because they have similar reliability with power, but they also tend to snake more in the air than the pathfinder.

    The only tiny compliant I have about this disc is that it doesn't have much lift, so if you throw it down expecting an air bounce it's just not going to happen. It is nice for low ceilings though because it just doesn't rise much out of the hand at all.
