Placement-focused TeeBird3 control in Metal Flake Champion
The Innova Metal Flake Champion TeeBird3 is a speed-8 fairway driver for players who want to shape controlled drives toward a chosen landing zone. Its 8 / 4 / 0 / 2 ratings pair resistance to high-speed turn with a moderate fading finish, while Metal Flake Champion identifies this version's plastic and appearance.
Why choose this version?
- Metal Flake treatment: Choose this version for its metal-flake appearance in the Champion plastic family, rather than an assumed flight advantage over stock Champion.
- Champion-family durability: A durable option for a fairway slot you expect to use regularly.
- Control-oriented design: Innova describes the TeeBird3 as a faster evolution of the TeeBird, with a flat flight plate that promotes speed while reducing glide.
- Defined finish: Zero turn and fade 2 suit a different role from an easy-turning driver or a hard-fading utility disc.
Who should throw it?
Consider the TeeBird3 when slower fairway drivers already fly well for you and you want a quicker option focused on placement. It is not a promise of automatic straight flight: lower-power throws may fade earlier, and release angle still determines the line.
On a hole where the best next shot comes from a specific patch of fairway, reach for a controlled throw instead of maximum speed. Give the disc room to finish and learn how its carry responds to your normal release before using it near tight trouble.
If you want easy turnovers or prolonged floating carry, a more understable or glide-focused driver may suit you better. Choose Metal Flake Champion for the version you prefer, not a guarantee of extra stability, distance, or a particular dome.
