Discraft ESP Ares Paul McBeth Prototype

The Ares is a straight to overstable distance driver.

What began as the highly talked-about Zeus 2.0, has officially evolved into Ares, a distance driver built for players who wanted more torque resistance from a Zeus without losing the feel and shot shaping capabilities. Early test flight runs quickly became a coveted release among both pros and everyday players. This disc is celebrated for the added stability, powerful end flight finish, and ability to push forward without drifting from its line. Now, that momentum becomes official.

The Ares keeps the familiar hand feel and high-speed profile players loved in the Zeus, but brings a more overstable, torque-resistant flight built for bigger arms, tough conditions, and max distance shots. This is the kind of disc players reach for when they want to throw aggressively without sacrificing reliability. Whether launched on a flex line or driven flat with power, the Ares is built to push forward and finish with authority. While Zeus sparked the question, Ares answers it.

Discraft ESP plastic, first introduced in 2006, was created to bring an increased grip to premium plastic without sacrificing too much durability. It beats in to fly a touch more understable than Z plastic and is only slightly less durable. The tell-tale sign of ESP plastic is the opaque, pastel-colored appearance along with a stiff but slightly tacky grip.
