Discraft Disc Golf ESP FLX Zone Putter 4/3/0/3 - Choose Exact Disc
by
Discraft
SKU: DG-DC-ESFL-ZNE (REF407-8)
Description
The Discraft ESP FLX Zone putter is Discraft's go-to overstable putt and approach disc, molded in ESP FLX plastic. It's built for forehand and backhand players who need dependable overstability, and it's at its best on technical approaches and powerful upshots. If you're shopping for a dependable Zone for your bag, this ESP FLX run is a great place to start.
ESP FLX Plastic
ESP FLX combines the soft, grippy feel of ESP with the flex and durability of FLX. It's ideal for cold weather and wet conditions, and Discraft says these discs maintain their structure and stability all year long. That makes this Zone a great pick for Michigan winters.
The Mold
The Zone is the gold standard for putt and approach discs and the go-to workhorse for dependable overstability in any condition. It's often used for technical approaches and powerful upshots, forehand and backhand.
Stability
The Zone 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 suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
