Doomsday Discs Depth Charge
The Doomsday Discs Depth Charge is a compact, low-glide approach disc that flies 2 | 2 | 0 | 1. Tweaked from the Land Mine with a narrower rim, it offers more torque resistance in premium blends and a “boxy” profile that releases clean and stays on line.
Throw it flat for straight, distance-capped carries that sit. Add slight hyzer for a quick, forward-pushing check-up. Soft/flexible runs help kill ground play, so upshots stop near the pin even on hardpan or rock.
Why throw the Depth Charge?
- Low-glide control that keeps approaches from drifting long.
- Torque-safe for backhand or touch forehand in the wind.
- Comfortable, boxy hand feel for confident line-hitting.
- PDGA-approved specs for tournament play.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Depth Charge flight numbers and what do they mean?
2 | 2 | 0 | 1 blends putter-speed control, minimal glide, zero high-speed turn, and a gentle, forward finish. From flat, it tracks straight and checks up instead of sailing. That makes it ideal when there’s danger long or you simply need an upshot to land and sit without a big skip or fade.
Who is the Doomsday Depth Charge best for?
Players who want line control and distance caps on approaches. Newer arms get straight, forgiving flights that won’t glide past the target. Experienced throwers get torque-safe touch forehands, flat lasers that sit, and reliable check-ups in wind. If your approach discs keep drifting long, the Depth Charge solves it with purposeful low glide.
How does it compare to Berg, Pig, or Land Mine?
Berg feels deeper with even less glide and a later dump; Pig is faster with a firmer fade. The Depth Charge splits the difference—neutral-stable aim with a soft finish. Versus the Land Mine, the Depth Charge’s narrowed rim enables premium plastics and adds a touch of torque resistance while keeping that boxy, distance-capping flight.
What shots does the Depth Charge excel at and how should I throw it?
Short, straight approaches that must stop, nose-down hyzer chips, and touch forehands under low ceilings. Keep the nose down and release flat or on slight hyzer to control height and land softly. On hard ground or slopes, the low glide and softer blends help reduce skips and roll-aways, protecting your par saves.
