The ESP FLX Nuke is a powerhouse distance driver designed for players who want explosive speed, exceptional grip and long‑range consistency. As one of Discraft’s most iconic high‑speed drivers, the Nuke has earned its place in bags across all skill levels thanks to its unmatched combination of distance potential and predictable stability. Now available in the flexible and grippy ESP FLX plastic, it offers outstanding control even in cold or wet conditions.

Type & Recommended Use
The Nuke is a max‑speed distance driver built for long, controlled drives where raw power meets reliable flight. With its wide rim and refined aerodynamics, it excels at pushing huge distances on both backhand and forehand lines. Whether you’re attacking long fairways, shaping powerful hyzer shots or maximising open‑field distance, the Nuke delivers effortless velocity with unwavering consistency.

Flight Characteristics

• Speed 13 – Extreme high‑speed driver for big distance potential
• Glide 5 – Excellent carry for long, far‑reaching flights
• Turn -1 – Slight high‑speed turn for added length
