Discraft Captain's Raptor Overview

Disc Golf Deals USA brings you the Discraft Captain’s Raptor for sale, a very overstable driver for the Discraft Team Captain, Paul Ulibarri. The CapRap, a modified, more overstable version of the Raptor, was PDGA approved at the end of 2021 and quickly became a staple in Uli’s bag along with many other disc golf pros. Because of how overstable the flight of the Captain’s Raptor is, it is not recommended for beginners.
