Discraft Disc Golf Paul McBeth Signature ESP Undertaker Fairway 9/5/-1/2 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Discraft ESP Undertaker fairway driver is a consistent, moderately overstable driver, molded in ESP plastic. It's built for players who want reliability in headwinds and tight fairways, and it's at its best on headwinds and precise drives. This listing is the Paul McBeth Signature Series release of the Undertaker. Paul McBeth is a 6x PDGA World Champion.
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 Undertaker in ESP will hold its flight well over time while giving you more grip than Discraft's harder Z plastic.
The Mold
The Undertaker is known for its consistent flight and reliability. It gives a slight turn followed by a manageable fade, for accurate placement on backhand and forehand throws. It helped Missy Gannon win her first major title at the United States Women's Disc Golf Championship.
Stability
The Undertaker 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.
