Best Throwing Putters for 2026
In disc golf, a disc is sorted into types based on it’s dimensions. A disc with a rim width of .8-1.1mm is considered a putter. However, many molds that fall into that rim size are rarely used for putting. Many of them are considered approach or driving discs. Those are the molds we want to focus on today.
In this blog we will check out sales data and reviews to find the best throwing putters for 2026. Yes, we do see some people putt with these molds. But we see these mostly used off the tee or as approach discs. Let’s find the best!
Discraft Zone

If you look at the top of nearly every ‘best throwing putter’ list, you’ll find the Zone. It has the overstability to handle power shots and headwinds. Used by people of all skill levels, the Zone is a reliable option for pros, and a great workhorse utility disc for lesser-skilled players. Check out the Zone today to see why it has become so popular.
Discraft Luna

The Luna is likely tops on the list of throwing putters that are also used for putting. The Luna is the first Paul McBeth putter for Discraft. This beadless putter is great for putting and can also be used as a driver, with the stability needed for the big arm throwers. There is a reason Paul bags the Luna!
Innova Aviar

Easily the oldest mold on the list, the Aviar is likely the most-copied. It is a classic putter that is older than most people reading this. This beadless and available in most plastic types. It doesn’t have the overstability of other discs, but it is still a good, shapable mold that has stood the test of time.
Infinite Discs Tomb

With a loyal fan following, the Tomb is flat topped, beaded disc that sports a low profile. It has a perfect flight for tight woods and open fairways. It isn’t the best mold for strong headwinds. However, it is great for technical shots, putting, and works well for backhand and for hand shots. Pick one up today and join the Tomb Gang!
MVP Envy

Once James Conrad threw an Envy into the basket at the 2021 World Championship, the Envy became one of the hottest disc on the market. Don’t get me wrong, the Envy has been a hot seller from the beginning. This stable disc can be ripped with tons of power, and fly beautifully. Over time you can get a good flip-to-flat flight that makes precision approach shots a lot easier.
Gateway Wizard

While not quite as old-school as the Aviar, the Wizard has been a Gateway staple for over two decades. It consistently ranks among the best throwing putters and putting putters. You may not reach for the Wizard for extra-long drives. But you will love it for technical shots. The beaded putter can be used in as many situations as it has plastic types. It is a legendary putter that outsells every other Gateway mold by a long shot.
Kastaplast Berg

The Berg’s thumbtrack might be a deal breaker for you. But if you’re comfortable with the feel, you’ll fall in love with its deadly-accurate throws. The Berg has both a speed and glide of one, making it excel at shorter, accurate shots that sit where they land. The secret is out and more players are discovering the reliability of the Berg.
Latitude 64 Pure

The straight-flying Pure is another mold that is just as comfortable inside circle one as with long approach shots. It is beadless and feels great in the hand. The flight numbers make it great for shaping your lines. It has a touch of turn and a mild fade. The Pure is available in lots of plastics, so you’re sure to find it in your favorite type.
MVP Glitch

The Glitch has been around for a few years, and quickly became a popular mold. It has a low speed and an insanely high glide. Not only can you get impressively long flights, you can shape those flights to make the Glitch do what you want. Things can get a little tricky throwing it on a really windy day, due to the Glitch’s light weight. Personally, I only reach for my Glitch if I have a shorter, technical shots that my mid’s just can’t pull off. Under those circumstances, the Glitch shines.
Infinite Discs Alpaca

Another disc that has been popular since its release is the Alpaca. It is popular as a putting putter among Infinite’s pros. Whether you are crushing long drives, tossing technical approach shots, or putting from 10 meters, you can rely on the Alpaca. It flies accurately for a variety of shots. The beadless putter comes in lots of plastics.
So, which one is the best?
If you look at the number of discs sold, the Zone comes out on top. If you look at the nearly perfect rating, once again you’ll find the Zone. Pros love it, ams love it. Power throwers and noodle arms can bag the Zone. With all that said, the winner is the Discraft Zone.
