20 Years of Buzzz

Two decades ago, a new era dawned on the sport of disc golf. Beyond the simple throws and open courses, the culture of disc golf began to resonate deeply with enthusiasts and spectators alike. It was during this period that Discraft, led by Jim Kenner, understood a unique opportunity to join in on this growth.


Discraft took on the challenge to establish and differentiate from others in the industry. The shadows of past endeavors were not a deterrent but rather a beacon that lit the path forward.

In 2003, Discraft unveiled the Buzzz. This wasn't just about manufacturing the highest-quality disc for the sport. Instead, the Buzzz aimed to fully comprehend the disc golf landscape – the courses, the die-hard players, the competition, the camaraderie, the collaborations, the collectors, and the creative minds that rendered the sport unique.


The inception of Buzzz was the manifestation of out-of-the-box thinking. From technical breakthroughs to inspiration from unexpected sources, every idea was fair game. For the first time, disc golfers were handed the tools to redefine their sport, resulting in the defiance of the ordinary and the creation of a range of products that quickly became iconic, indispensable, and highly sought after.


Marking this momentous occasion, here at Discraft we are thrilled to present "20 Year Anniversary Edition," a disc that encapsulates this unique journey. This release traces the stories, personalities, and milestones that have shaped the Buzzz and offers a glimpse into the future of disc golf.

 


We raise a toast to the past twenty years and look forward to many more with the Buzzz setting the pace and redefining the sport.

The Buzzz wasn't just resting on its achievements. In 2010, its status was cemented as one of the best-selling discs in the sport's history. But Discraft knew there were more horizons to explore. 


Catering to an ever-diversifying player base, we introduced the Buzzz OS and Buzzz SS, ensuring every player found their perfect mid-range companion.

As 2013 rolled in, the world paused to commemorate the Buzzz's 10th anniversary. A decade of flight celebrated with limited edition runs, thrilling events, and heartwarming campaigns.

In the sport of disc golf, 2003 marked the arrival of what would become a game-changer. The Buzzz soared onto the scene, earning its PDGA approval September 30, 2003. It wasn't just another disc; its predictable flight and unparalleled versatility immediately captured attention. Pros and amateurs alike whispered praises, praising its uncannily straight trajectory. 

Within its first year, it was evident: the Buzzz wasn't just a disc; it was a sensation.

THE BEGINNING:

THE MODERN ERA:

The world of sports is constantly evolving, and so are the tools that define them. In the past 20 years, the Buzzz embraced subtle  evolutions, ensuring it retained its timeless charm and classic flight while adapting to the modern game. 


And now, as we stand in 2023, we don't just celebrate a disc; we celebrate an era. Two decades of the iconic Buzzz. It's more than just an anniversary; it's a tribute to every flight, every throw, and every player who's ever held the Buzzz.
