Discraft Disc Golf ESP Venom Distance Driver 13/5/0/3 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Discraft ESP Venom distance driver is a powerful overstable distance driver, molded in ESP plastic. It's built for high-power players who need control at full power, and it's at its best on wind, forehands, and forced hyzers. If you're shopping for a dependable Venom for your bag, this ESP run is a great place to start.
ESP Plastic
ESP is Discraft's premier opaque, swirled plastic. It balances a gummy-yet-firm, tacky grip with high durability, which makes it a favorite for all-around everyday play. Your Venom in ESP will hold its flight well over time while giving you more grip than Discraft's harder Z plastic.
The Mold
Designed to resist turn under aggressive releases, the Venom gives high-power players the confidence to attack into wind, lean on forehands, and shape forced hyzers. Its dependable stability and strong finish make it a driver for when control at full power is non-negotiable.
Stability
The Venom is 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 for intermediate to advanced players with good arm speed.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 13 | Very high speed that needs strong arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 3 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
