My Flight Ratings 13/5.5/0/3 Not Beginner Friendly

Mar 10, 2022 10:51 AM

I have tested the Nuke in ESP and Tour Series plastic so far. The Nuke is Discraft's fastest distance driver with a speed of 13 and is recommended for advanced players.
What distinguishes the Nuke from Discraft's other distance drivers is the very wide rim, which at first takes some getting used to, but in my opinion is perfect for forehand throws, as it fits very well in the hand. For backhand throws I personally don't like the wide rim and prefer to use disctance drivers with a slightly narrower rim. Furthermore, the disc has a relatively high dome, which is comparable to a heat, but not as high as that of the Mantis.
The Nuke is quite overstable and therefore very well suited for strong headwinds. It always reliably shows the hyzer at the end of its flight. I can't get it to turn with my arm speed. Its strength lies in a relatively high glide, which guarantees a very good distance on flex fore casts. Due to the overall very flat disc profile and the wide rim, you can play very well with large skips on short cut grass. 
Between ESP and Tour Series plastic I could not observe any significant differences in flight behavior. I personally find the Tour Series plastic better, due to a higher grip, but that's a matter of taste.
