The Stokely Peregrine is a slightly overstable speed-12 distance driver, the first distance driver in the Stokely lineup and its fastest mold.
A -1 turn and 3 fade at speed 12 describe a driver that holds its angle: Stokely says it keeps its line at any speed and in any wind, which is the pitch for a power thrower’s hyzer disc. A strong arm throwing flat sees a brief right drift before the 3 fade brings it home; on a hyzer it stays on the hyzer and finishes hard. Glide of 5 is moderate, so distance comes from power rather than float. Sidearm throwers get the torque resistance they want. Slower arms will find it fades early and flies shorter than its speed suggests, and should look at a slower, more understable driver.
It fills the overstable-distance slot, the disc for long hyzers and headwind drives. Its limit is that it needs an arm: under about 300 feet of power it behaves like a fairway driver that hooks.
The peregrine falcon is the fastest bird alive, an obvious name for the fastest disc in a bird-named lineup. PDGA approved December 2, 2024, and announced by the PDGA as a new approval. It is 21.0 cm across, 1.5 cm tall with a 2.2 cm rim, beadless. Skyline Disc Golf lists it as 12/6/-2/2, a materially more understable reading; Stokely’s own 12/5/-1/3 is used here.
First run shipped in Thermo at 165–174 g.
How much the Peregrine turns and fades depends on how hard it is thrown. These three shapes are drawn from the manufacturer’s numbers, not from measured throws.
Measured by the PDGA when the Peregrine was certified. Each card names discs that share the number, so you can feel it in the hand.
