Developed as Mint’s very first midrange collaboration with Prodigy Discs, the Rodeo fills the crucial gap between the straight-flying Mustang and the overstable Bobcat. Featuring a distinctive concave wing and an ultra-flat profile, it sits comfortably in the palm for both backhand and sidearm grips. In this Royal plastic run, the disc cools down with minimal flex and a fast, streamlined hand feel that mimics a slightly wider, faster Mustang.

At a 5 speed and 5 glide, it cuts through the air cleanly while keeping plenty of forward push. Thrown flat or with a touch of anhyzer, the -1 turn allows the disc to subtly drift right before the 3 fade kicks in to pull the flight back to a predictable center-line finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSpeed\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGlide\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eTurn\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eFade\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e-1\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Royal Rodeo delivers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlat-Top Beadless Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e A smooth shoulder and concave rim shape that eliminates finger drag on both forehand and backhand releases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorkable S-Curve Trajectory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pushes down the fairway with a gentle high-speed drift before hooking up late near the target.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonable Baseline Compound:\u003c\/strong\u003e Breaks in gracefully with use, allowing you to cycle multiple Royal Rodeos into understable workhorses over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt excels at:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat tee shots on wooded fairways that require a subtle turn before fading back flat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTouchy anhyzer flex lines that need to track right and fight back at the tail end of the flight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth sidearm approaches where a shallow, flat flight plate is required for a clean release.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Royal Baseline Advantage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMolded in Mint's Royal baseline plastic, this production run features a firm, low-flex composition with high surface tackiness. The firm flight plate provides a solid release point under thumb pressure, while the baseline material offers incredible grip in cold or damp conditions. Because baseline plastics wear in faster than premium blends, the Royal Rodeo will naturally season as you hit trees and chains, making it ideal for players who like to beat in a single mold for different shot shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the Rodeo Compares in the Mint Lineup\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVs the Mint Mustang:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Mustang is a purely neutral, straight-line midrange.
