Discraft Big Z Vulture 10 | 5 | 0 | 2
The Discraft Big Z Vulture combines elite hybrid-driver control with eye-catching graphics and a subtle pearlescent sheen. Functioning as a 10-speed placement driver often described as a "well-seasoned Predator," the Vulture offers incredible glide, laser-straight distance, and a predictable finishing fade. It bridges the gap between fairway drivers and wide-rim distance bombers, offering a medium rim profile that sits comfortably in your palm for both backhand and forehand power throws. Molded in Discraft's Big Z plastic, this edition brings high-durability performance together with vibrant, oversized stamp artwork that pops on the fairway. Explore the entire family in our complete Discraft Vulture Collection. We photograph and weigh every single item individually in our live stock, so the exact disc you pick below is the exact one we ship to your door.
Flight Numbers
The Big Z Vulture is engineered for high-accuracy placement drives down tight fairways or open fields. At a 5 glide and speed 10, it carries deep down the fairway with minimal effort. Its 0 turn ensures it will hold a straight line through moderate headwinds without flipping over into a roller, while the 2 low-speed fade delivers a smooth, forward-pushing finish that keeps your distance predictable.
| Speed | Glide | Turn | Fade |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | 5 | 0 | 2 |
The Big Z Vulture delivers:
- Bold Visual Style: Features an opaque pearlescent finish paired with oversized character artwork across the flight plate.
- Medium Rim Width: A balanced rim width that offers maximum leverage without feeling bulky under the fingers.
- Wind-Resistant Straight Flight: Holds a true, straight line in crossbreezes before breaking into a predictable late fade.
It excels at:
- Straight-line tee shots on wooded fairways where control and distance are equally important.
- Smooth, flat sidearm drives that carry straight before checking up near the pin.
- Long-range flex shots for power throwers that pan out slowly and land flat.
Big Z Plastic Performance
Big Z plastic is Discraft’s stylish upgrade to their classic Z Line compound. It combines the extreme durability and firmness of traditional Z Line with a modest pearlescent sheen and opaque color profile. Built to survive brutal tree impacts, rock hits, and heavy course wear, Big Z holds onto its factory flight numbers for seasons on end. In terms of stability, Big Z flies very similarly to standard Z Line—offering a firm, consistent release with maximum high-speed stability.
How the Big Z Vulture Compares Across Blends
- Vs the Discraft Z Line Vulture: Standard Z Line features a translucent, clear appearance with small stock foil logos. This Big Z version swaps the translucent look for an opaque pearlescent sheen and a huge custom graphic, while matching its long-term durability.
- Vs the Discraft ESP Vulture: ESP plastic is a swirled, slightly softer blend that offers a tackier hand grip and breaks in slightly faster to unlock a touch more turn and glide. The Big Z version stays firmer and holds its out-of-the-box stability longer.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Big Z Vulture
Does the large stamp on Big Z affect the grip or flight?
No. The oversized hot-stamp foil is stamped flush into the plastic flight plate, so it doesn't create awkward ridges or drag. You get all the style of a custom design with the exact same flight performance.
Is Big Z plastic as durable as Z Line?
Yes. Big Z uses the same core high-durability polymer base as standard Z Line. It resists gouges, scratches, and structural warping from tree strikes extremely well.
Is this disc good for forehand throws?
Yes. The comfortable 10-speed rim and clean underside wing allow for a smooth sidearm snap without the disc fluttering or catching on your fingers.
