What are some good drivers to use if I do not have a whole lot of snap.

Most distance for the money- Lat64 River. It is very forgiving, has extra glide, and doesn't require snap to get it going for distance.

The Halo is a great disc, but its most definately not for someone without snap. For the big guns.

Most DG Courses don't average more than 300ft per hole. The River is completely capable of reaching those distances, and more, with very little effort. The disc is also very responsive when you power down on it. In lighter weights it can be turned over, and in heavier weights you can rip on it without worrying about crashing and burning it to the right. It is just such a versitile, straight flyer, for snap or NO snap throws.

Love the Halo!!! But Dook is right, if you dont arleady tote a Nuke or an Ape (or something really fast and overstable) I do not recomend geetting the Halo.

I have to 2nd Dookville's vote on the Lat 64 River. Get it in a Lighter weight, Mid 160's, and it will fly far for you. Does have some good fade when thrown softer or a without bit of spin, but still goes. The other I would suggest is a Discraft Avenger SS in the lightest weight possible (165-166gm). My FURTHEST driver I can control, and I don't have a lot of snap myself.

Kinda of the beat of the main brands, but the Classic Inferno from Quest AT is a great disc for D, for those who do not have the snap yet.... but remember the Inferno and the Classic inferno is not the same disc....

There are so many disc's that would be just what you are looking for, for the most part maybe look for under stable to start with.
