Typically, the lighter a disc is, the further it will carry.  However, the more advanced player you are, the heavier disc you will need to be able to control your shots correctly.  Heavier discs rely on the lift created by the rotation of the disc for their distance, so they have to be thrown with a lot of spin. 

If you're a beginner, you would have the most success with the 150 Class

The 150 Class discs were designed with new players in mind

Intermediate players usually work up to discs ranging from 165-175 Grams

Advanced players typically have a whole array of discs in their bags, each one designed for a specific shot.  They normally need heavier and more stable discs because they throw with a lot of power and rotation.
