The Doomsday Discs Proximity Mine is a 2-speed stable putt & approach. With published flight numbers of 2 / 3 / 0 / 1.5, it is most often described as suited for short, accurate approaches, touch shots where overthrowing is risky.

Overview

The Doomsday Discs Proximity Mine is a 2/3/0/1.5 stable, slow approach disc in the brand's "Land Mine" family.[1] It's a large, boxy putter with a slightly overstable angled rim and a thumb track molded into the top plate for grip, tuned for short throws where accuracy matters more than distance.[1]

Flight numbers describe the published behavior of the disc when thrown at its design speed. Real-world flight varies with plastic, weight, age, and thrower power. The community-averaged numbers above reflect crowd-sourced observations from real throws — typically slightly more understable than the manufacturer's published values, which is the most consistent pattern across nearly every commercial mold.

The Proximity Mine is a dedicated approach disc for touch shots inside the circle and just beyond, where you need the disc to land and stop without skipping or rolling past the target.[1] Its low speed and modest fade keep it predictable, filling an approach role similar to a Discraft Zone with a flatter, boxier feel. Offered in premium Survival and Clandestine plastics.[1]

Best for:

  • Short, accurate approaches
  • Touch shots where overthrowing is risky
  • Stable, predictable upshots
  • Anti-roll, dead-stop landings

Plastics & variants

The Proximity Mine is available in the following plastic blends from Doomsday Discs:

Clandestine, Survival

Plastic blend significantly affects flight character. Premium plastics like Champion, Z, or C-Line generally fly more overstable when fresh and hold their stability over time. Base plastics like DX, Pro, or Active beat in faster and become more understable workhorses with use.

History

The Proximity Mine extends Doomsday Discs' munitions-themed "Land Mine" approach-disc family.[1] Reviewer numbers (about 1.8/2.8/-0.2/1.5) track the factory rating.[1] Doomsday Discs is an apocalypse-themed brand carried through Infinite Discs.[1][2]
