Fairway Driver · Both Overstable
The Discraft Raptor (9/4/0/+3) and Innova Firebird (9/3/0/+4) are both fairway drivers, and they fly similarly, with only minor differences.
Both are speed 9, so neither needs more power than the other to reach its flight. The Firebird is the more overstable of the two (stability +4 vs +3), so it fights wind and finishes harder to the left, while the Raptor flies straighter or turns more. Estimated maximum distance is about 105 m for the Raptor versus 99 m for the Firebird.
Choose the Firebird when you need to fight wind, throw forehand, or want a dependable finishing hook. Reach for the Raptor when you want a straighter line, an easier turnover, or more help at a lower arm speed.
