Discraft Disc Golf Big Z Vulture Driver 10/5/0/2 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Discraft Big Z Vulture distance driver is Paul McBeth's overstable control driver, molded in Big Z plastic. It's built for players who want superior control in any condition, and it's at its best on controlled drives in any condition. If you're shopping for a dependable Vulture for your bag, this Big Z run is a great place to start.
Big Z Plastic
Big Z is a variant of standard Z plastic with an opaque appearance, a slightly softer feel, and distinct, oversized artwork stamps. It offers durability, excellent grip, and consistent releases, so your Vulture looks as good as it flies.
The Mold
The Vulture is one of the newest additions to Paul McBeth's signature series. After winning his 6th world title, Paul chose it for its crucial role on the course: an overstable fairway driver with superior control in any condition.
Stability
The Vulture is stable-to-overstable. Overstable discs resist turning over and fade hard at the end, which makes them predictable in wind and at high power. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it resists turning over and finishes with a strong, dependable fade to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with that hard fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's best suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
