Reaper

Discraft Reaper – Flight Chart

The Discraft Reaper is an overstable fairway/control driver with flight numbers 8 | 3 | 0 | 4. It’s a wind-ready utility disc known for a hard, reliable finish and confident placement lines. Expect a flat push with minimal turn and a forceful fade—ideal when you must finish left (RHBH) or trust a forehand to hold its line. Although the Reaper is discontinued in regular stock, it returns in special and Ledgestone-style runs.

Beginner Notes: Utility Over Distance

Newer players will find the Reaper quite beefy. Use it when you need a predictable hook at the end of flight, short spike hyzers, or to fight wind rather than for max distance.

Lines for Intermediate Arms

At moderate power, release flat or on slight anhyzer to get forward carry before the dependable fade. Great for forced-fade fairway shots, skip placements, and tight corner hyzers.

Advanced Shotcraft and Headwinds

Power throwers can lean on the Reaper for headwind control, spike hyzers, over-the-top lines, and placement shots where a guaranteed fade is mandatory.

Forehand and Skip Game

The overstable profile pairs well with forehand mechanics: clean releases resist turn and finish hard. Use firm, flat releases for low skips or add hyzer for steep landings.
