Procul

DISCONTINUED
Distance Driver
The Procul is a distance driver listed here at 12/4/-3/2. A turn rating of -3 at speed 12 with a fade rating of 2 suggests a flight that turns right at high speed for a right-hand backhand before a moderate finish; slower arms tend to see less of that turn. Its ratings suggest it is less suited to players prioritizing resistance to high-speed turnover. UB Disc Golf says its Hand Candy project, begun in April 2013, set out to bring back the old way of making discs, prioritizing quality over production time and cost. UB says the Procul was the first disc it made, and that it retooled the bottom rim after the first run, adding a bevel to stabilize the flight. It describes the Procul as understable at high speed and stable once it slows, suiting slower arms and distance hyzer-flips, and its page glosses the name as at a distance. The PDGA approved it on 29 August 2013 (13-51). TryDiscs lists it in Creamy.
