Legacy Discs was founded in 2011 by professional disc golfers Steve and Bamba Rico, two brothers who were longtime Innova-sponsored players and concrete contractors by trade. Somewhere between pouring driveways and collecting tournament wins, the Rico brothers decided it was time to take control of their disc destiny and start their own brand—Legacy Discs—based in southern California.

Their early lineup was heavily inspired by their favorite Innova molds, essentially creating Legacy versions of what they were already throwing:

Rival = Teebird

Patriot = Leopard

Outlaw = Destroyer

Ghost = Roc

Enemy = Firebird

This made the transition easy for players who loved those classic Innova flights but wanted to support a smaller brand. But Legacy didn’t just copy molds—they also pushed the envelope with high-speed distance drivers like the Cannon and Rampage, which were among the fastest discs in the game when they launched. These two speed demons were also the first discs Legacy ever released, helping them make an immediate splash with power throwers.

Legacy uses a variety of proprietary plastics such as Pinnacle, Icon, and Excel, each with different levels of grip and durability. Their Icon plastic in particular is known for its flexibility and strong grip in all weather conditions.

Despite a strong start and a loyal following—especially on the West Coast—Legacy has struggled with national reach and marketing consistency. While they may not dominate tour bags or social media algorithms, their discs are still legit. Solid designs, comfortable rims, and flight paths you can trust. And if you’re into supporting family-run, underdog brands, Legacy is right up your alley.

You might not see them on every shelf... but the people who throw Legacy? They swear by them.

Legacy may fly under the radar, but they've got a handful of discs that have earned serious respect from players who’ve given them a shot. Here are the top-selling and most trusted discs in the Legacy lineup:

Rival – The Rival is Legacy’s go-to fairway driver and arguably their flagship mold. Designed as their answer to the Innova Teebird, it offers a stable, straight flight with a touch of fade at the end—perfect for controlled drives and pinpoint placement.

Patriot – If the Rival is the workhorse, the Patriot is its understable cousin. This fairway driver is smooth, easy to throw, and perfect for turnovers and long hyzer flips. Legacy designed it to mimic the Leopard, and it absolutely delivers.

Recluse – The Recluse is a beefy overstable midrange with a dependable fade and torque resistance for those who throw with power. It’s a favorite among forehand throwers and anyone who needs a disc that holds up in the wind without flipping.

Sumo – The Sumo putter has quickly developed a cult following for its unique design and comfortable feel. It’s flat-topped, beaded, and reliably overstable, making it a favorite for approach shots and headwind putts. A bit of a hidden gem that’s gaining steam.

Rampage – One of Legacy’s first molds and still one of their most iconic. The Rampage is a speed 14 distance driver built for pure power. It’s one of the fastest discs in the game, designed for big arms and massive drives—definitely not for the faint of arm speed.

While Legacy doesn’t flood the market with new molds every year, these discs have stood the test of time and continue to be fan favorites. If you're curious about Legacy, this list is a great place to start.

Let’s be real—Legacy Discs was founded by pros and built for players who already knew how to shape a shot. So, while most of their lineup caters to experienced throwers, they didn’t completely forget about the rest of us.

Here are some Legacy molds that actually work great for beginners, casual players, or anyone who’s not out here trying to throw 400 feet:

Patriot – Smooth, controllable, and easy to throw, the Patriot is one of Legacy’s most beginner-friendly fairway drivers. It holds a straight line with minimal fade, which makes it ideal for learning proper form and angle control.

Mongoose – This understable driver is a solid choice for new players who want easy distance without having to muscle the disc. It’s flippy, fun, and forgiving—basically the opposite of most pro-level distance drivers.

Nemesis – Another high glide, understable driver that works surprisingly well for players who haven’t developed big arm speed yet. Great for tailwind shots or learning hyzer flips.

Gauge – Legacy’s most beginner-appropriate midrange. The Gauge has a neutral flight that doesn’t try to fade too hard or turn too much. Just point and shoot. It’s a clean flyer for players still figuring things out.

Hunter – This straight-flying putter has a comfortable rim and minimal fade, making it a reliable putting and approach option for newer players. If you like throwing putters off the tee, the Hunter is a great pick.

So while Legacy may not have built their brand around helping beginners, they’ve got a few molds that can definitely help new players get hooked—and maybe even throw straight once in a while.
