Yikun sent me the entire lineup nearly 2 years ago and they had some of the most innaccurate flight numbers ive ever seen. They have decent premium plastic, but the discs seems to be made by beginners for beginners. This isnt necessarily a bad thing especially if disc golf becomes popular in China and they have a large population of new players.
Most of there flight numbers were accurate for me but there were a few in the bunch that I did notice some inaccuracies as well. I’m wondering if they have improved on it since you received that initial line up! Also I dig the channel
My favorite throwing putter is the Yikun GUI. I love the versatility and different flights that I can get just by holding the disc on the “grippy” portion or “non-grippy” portion.
Just got 2nd place in a B-tier MP40 with throwing all Yikun. They're solid. The Hammer is money and lots of people would enjoy throwing the Twin Swords and the Claws.
I have been throwing the Infinite Tomb Metal flake C-blend as my slightly overstable putter and I absolutely love it! Flies super straight but with a very consistent fade at the end, highly recommend.
Whale is my favorite throwing putter by a landslide. I've been using a glow whale for half a decade, amazing feel and flight. Also a big fan of the Gui from Yikun!
I've been using the Judge as my putter for the last year or so from about 40ft in. Outside of that I grab the Luna. I've used a couple Yikun discs before but I never realized that they have a full line. Just never considered them much before, but perhaps I should.
Love the video man! I've had the twin swords in and out of my bag for a while now and I love the consistency! Throwing putter I gotta go judge. Especially with how the lucid plastic beats in and the feel of the new supreme plastic? I've been throwing judges for a while and I haven't looked back since!
Love seeing some newer brands represented! I'm going back and forth right now, but honestly the Proxy is super underrated. When the Envy and Proxy first came out, I was raving over the Proxy while everyone else gravitated to the Envy.
Yeah, I am a Proxy putter and I agree. If you have a fast slight hyzer angled putt then the envy is better. If you are a straight spush putter then the proxy is king.
The Hammer is the best training tool throwing putter on the market. The price and the production consistency cannot be beat. I own 15 Hammers, all came board flat, that are used to train forehand and backhand distance. If you can throw an overstable non-glidey putter far, you will increase your distance on every other disc. The fact that you can get a stack of these discs so cheap, means you can use them like a basketball player would a rack of balls, or a baseball player and a bucket of balls. They took my forehand to over 500ft, and my back hand to over 400ft, from 350 and 250 respectively. You should come to OKC man, where it is warmer than Utah this time of year, and do a Hammer training video. Oh, and the whistle let's you know you are on the right track, so that's a cool feature.
@@Infinitediscs I'm not sure how much you are following the tour this year, but if you are swinging by or through Oklahoma, remember this and hit me up.
Yikun roughly translates to a legendary fish that can transform into a giant bird. Currently in my bag are Pure and Envy. Sometimes the skygod or Aviar 3 makes the bag too.
Throwing putter has been the soft Judge, I can S it in from time to time, but the bead makes my a putter who is less trash than before. #puttfordough #driveforshow Love the videos man, great job
Envy is my favorite throwing putter. Fitting that you were on the hole of the holy shot. And you may have convinced me to become a yi guy. I love my Lunas, but hate the price tag.
I love throwing my alpha plastic lonestar harpoon! Cam have a bit of turn and a good firm finish. Its numbers are 4/3/0/2 but i tend to get more of a 4/5/-1/2.5. Almost as far as my mids! Also love my xt colt. A bit flippy bit i have it dialed!
I’ve been really wanting to try out some Yikun, but never made the jump because I just had no clue if it would be worth any money. Will definitely be trying out the Zhang! Favorite throwing putter is my Logic! Nice flip up and ride
Actually, the most underrated brand was Lighining discs, they had 3 good putters The Rubber Putter, Upshot, and #2 Upshot both the basic and softer in Proline , then had #2 driver that was a good disc only in baseline then had one of the best midrange discs, the #3 Hookshot that was basically what a RocX3 is now but only in the basic plastic that was improved for all molds to between XT and Pro or similar plastic when they added the DuPont to the discs. The Problem with Lighting was they never improved the discs for years so the brand was forgotten and never made past a 9 speed disc they made in 2000 until they made an odd named disc not in the airplane or newer number system. I think how this brand stayed in business was they had a fully galvanized basket with 18 single set of chains for $200 they had made in China, buying both the clone made by a Chinese company and actual model, then when bags were used Lighting had some of the cheapest bigger bags on the market, the smaller ones were about the same as the other brands bags of the same size.
Buzzz and Heat have been my favorites for years. But I have started trying new company’s out lately. Been playing disc golf over 37 years. Would love to try out some Yikun. Thanks
Hard to beat an Envy, but an RPM Tui in premium plastic will always have a place in my bag for it's straight to understable flight and unbelievable glide.
I totally agree, been throwing Yikun's Active line for discmania, and love a bunch of the molds. Mentor, Genius, Majesty, and Sensei are always in the bag.
Mentor was pretty good new. It's like a softer grippier dx. Just bought a Geo origin feels like that same plastic maybe DD but its flying perfect for now. Trying to not hit any trees with it. My prime Truth verdict emac Truth all waffled on first tree hit.
Favorite throwing putter at this point is a Champion Aviar. Loved the review. Very interested in how the plastics feel, might have to pick a few discs up.
@@Infinitediscs Not really a specific slot. I love collecting discs. But of course I love playing also and through mostly understable stuff. I'll look definitely take a close look at your Yikun stock when I'm ready to purchase but will be a bit later. Made some Simon and Paul line orders recently so wife might divorce if I make another order soon😁. I've ordered from you guys in the past so I'll be in touch when ready to get a Yikun disc or 2.
I love my soft luna! But not gonna lie I was blown away by the sensei I got in my mystery box! Also was pretty surprised by the tailor! So I can see where you are coming from however my big issue with the active line is how domey they are
I have found that in the Phoenix plastic for sure but that Dragon plastic seems to be a lot more reasonable. Definitely a different feel then your normal “champion” type of plastic though.
I would say the Yi is probably most similar feel wise. It may be a little faster than a keystone and maybe a touch more far. The king might be what you’re looking for. It says it a mid range but it is definitely a putter. Slightly more flippy then the Yi but probably flies like a keystone. It does have a bead though.
I do like the feel of Yikun plastic, which is sad because literally everything else about their brand is disappointing, like the durability, consistency, stamps, designs, and shape in the hand.
so sick to see these small brands get some love!

Favorite throwing putter has to be TSA Praxis. I just wish they had more to buy up!
I love the hammer and the base plastic it comes in is really good

Ordered my first Yikun disc yesterday! Right now, my throwing putter is a Max Value Divergent Nuno. It does what I need when I need.
I have been throwing the Infinite Tomb Metal flake C-blend as my slightly overstable putter and I absolutely love it! Flies super straight but with a very consistent fade at the end, highly recommend.
Thanks for turning us on to these discs. Really worth a try! My fave throwing putter is the Axiom Proxy Plasma. Straight and true!
Whale is my favorite throwing putter by a landslide. I've been using a glow whale for half a decade, amazing feel and flight. Also a big fan of the Gui from Yikun!
Envy is my throwing putter. As a beginner it's been good to me.

Favorite throwing putter would have to be my Berg. Great video!
My favorite throwing putter is the Crown. It feels exactly like a PA 3 but I feel it is slightly more glidey.
Latitude 64 Ruby is the best throwing putter in my opinion. And thanks for the video, I'm checking the link right now.
Love the video man! I've had the twin swords in and out of my bag for a while now and I love the consistency! Throwing putter I gotta go judge. Especially with how the lucid plastic beats in and the feel of the new supreme plastic? I've been throwing judges for a while and I haven't looked back since!
Ive never thrown yikun. I need to rewatch to understand the names better. They all sound so similar. I do like throwing a luna for throwing putters
I've got three Yikuns in my bag right now. Great value.
Love seeing some newer brands represented! I'm going back and forth right now, but honestly the Proxy is super underrated. When the Envy and Proxy first came out, I was raving over the Proxy while everyone else gravitated to the Envy.

I like to throw a berg for short stuff (100-120ish) and a pig or jawbreaker zone for longer

My favorite putter is the Innova Mako (was the Axiom Proxy). My favorite throwing putter/approach discs are the Buzz and the MVP Deflector.

I recently picked up a tsa praxis, and it quickly became my favorite point and shoot throwing putter. Super strait, but also pretty torque resistant.
I’ve been really wanting to try out some Yikun, but never made the jump because I just had no clue if it would be worth any money. Will definitely be trying out the Zhang!
Favorite throwing putter is my Logic! Nice flip up and ride
The Phoenix plastic is definitely domey so if you like that then go with Phoenix. If you like a flatter feeling then try the dragon plastic.
I had not heard of Yikun but I did know that a Chinese company was making the Discmania active line....I through envys as my throwing putters!!

I have to look more into this. Thank you for your information this sounds awesome👀
Buzzz and Heat have been my favorites for years. But I have started trying new company’s out lately. Been playing disc golf over 37 years. Would love to try out some Yikun. Thanks
My favorite throwing putter is a judge or AGL above ground level putt and approach discs
Lunas man! Got a prototype Luna it was money this past weekend. 1st run Luna was also money.
The chief OS is a godly throwing putter in the diamond plastic
I putt with Westside disc crowns. Nice and straight for me and I like throwing the harder plastic ones
Favorite throwing putter… the berg
Fav throwing putter is the Hydrogen Loft. Dead straight shots when I need it, glides on touch shots then too.
Primarily been throwing a proxy as my go to thrower
Loved the video! My favorite throwing putter is a classic soft judge. Something about it just clicks with me!
My throwing putter is a p model s in duraflex plastic.
Favorite throwing putter: PRODISCUS JOKERI

I got rid of my Glitch for the Yan (3,6,0,0). Flies like a Glitch but I got it heavier so it plays better in the wind.
The best throwing putter has to be the Tomb🔥
I would say my favorite putter is the new pace from finish line. I do like my luna for throwing too it flies straight for me.
My favorite throwing putter is the lat64 pure
The praxis is my go to!

@@JoshJackson13 I have an old Fluid Truth, still flying true and stable. Wish they still made the Fluid stuff. (think crystal Z flex)
@@johntardibuono625 all of mine were prime still fly good just waffled
Yan is labeled as a midrange and I can pump it out over 300 feet but its a 3 speed.
Star aviar, warden, pure, deputy under stable , throw zone for over stable
Currently throwing pure and berg.
Favorite throwing putter at this point is a Champion Aviar. Loved the review. Very interested in how the plastics feel, might have to pick a few discs up.
I don't have any Yikun discs yet but plan to get 1 or 2 eventually. Want to get at least 1 disc from every manufacturer.
Any specific type of slot you want yikun to fill? I might have some suggestions👀
I’m curious of Yikun also. I have never seen one in person ever.

throw not through - Spell much? 😐
Favorite throwing putter gotta be a berg but I’m willing to try anything
I’m going to have to try out this brand now. Favorite putter is the firefly and favorite throwing putter is the new trash panda innercore.
You think Utah is cold! Try living north of the 49th 🥶 fav throwing putter is a 500 PA3 🙏
I use the hammer as a throwing putter. The VIP one actually!
Let’s gooooo
This one is next on my list! I love my Crossbow and figured I'd try another approach-type disc.
The crossbow is a beefy mid! Extremely torque resistant
Tomb is a great throwing putter
I have indeed heard of them, and bag a few. The secret is now out of the bag. lol.
Berg is my favorite throwing putter. Will have to give this brand a look ✌️
Great review! My favorite is the rainmaker!
I’m really liking the Mint Bullet - in Eternal Plastic. Just an awesome, accurate flyer 👍
Ruru by RPM is the best throwing putter
Nice manitowoc minute beanie!
Favorite throwing putter sky god p2 love the channel would love the disc here in OHIO
I throw a cryztal fierce. Putt with a jawbreaker fierce.
Good video and I bag a White Hammer
Aviarx3 is such a good throwing putter. Can literally everything with it!
My fave throwing putter is my Star Invader, I don’t really hear it talked about very much and I’m not sure why because it cruises
Nothing beats a Luna. Lemme see that.
Discraft Jawbreaker Banger-GT.
My pure is my absolute favorite putter to throw flies more like a midrange now
The armadillo is the best to throw i also love the crossbow
I put with an old school Parina
Envy is the putter I throw most
Envy is my fav throwing putter
Same I’ve had my glow envy’s for 2 years now and they are still amazing
Challengers are my favorite throwing putter by a long shot
I love my soft luna! But not gonna lie I was blown away by the sensei I got in my mystery box! Also was pretty surprised by the tailor! So I can see where you are coming from however my big issue with the active line is how domey they are
I have found that in the Phoenix plastic for sure but that Dragon plastic seems to be a lot more reasonable. Definitely a different feel then your normal “champion” type of plastic though.
@Infinite Discs the tailor was great! Also I got a rockstar and it was reasonable but the magician was unreal!!!
Star Colt off the tee for me
There are a couple of their molds that are amazing
Been throwing an Envy currently
Who's the artist? This song is great!
Could a Yukon replace my Keystone? Who knows?
I would say the Yi is probably most similar feel wise. It may be a little faster than a keystone and maybe a touch more far. The king might be what you’re looking for. It says it a mid range but it is definitely a putter. Slightly more flippy then the Yi but probably flies like a keystone. It does have a bead though.
Kang not king!
@@Infinitediscs thank you!
I do like the feel of Yikun plastic, which is sad because literally everything else about their brand is disappointing, like the durability, consistency, stamps, designs, and shape in the hand.
I loovve throwing opto pures
Tomb gang baby! Who’s with me???
I’m with you! I love em for putting, believe it or not. Can’t beat the shallow profile with a bead feel. Tomb Gang!
@@jonsidell3338 Yep, i putt with them as well. Favorite putter on the market, can't get much shallower!
In my experience Utah is either super hot or super cold...no real in between
VIP maiden
BERG!
AviarX3

Zone is my fav
I curently bag the Link.
Discmania p1
I throw a logic
Interesting, I too throw a Luna

Hammer surprised me. Not a ton of glide, handles torque, and finishes. Backhand or flick.
I’ve been very pleased with my doomsday Bleak
