Two putters that made a splash and gained momentum from smaller brands were the Reptilian Discs Scale (overstable putter) and the Plastic Addicts Habit (an over-sized putter).
I’ve actually thrown more than 50 different putters. For short putts I like the ABC Money putter in Gold Plastic. It’s soft, but not too soft, and is a big thick putter that fits nicely in my hand.
For longer putts, I reach for a Proton MVP Anode. This is a putter that stays straight and hardly fades at all.
I love my Arobie Arrow…..Many state it throws like a brick but it on the spot not a bit of fade. . . (unless level toss is not done. Sinkd right on the hole.
I knocked 5 off my score with this so called rock.
Don’t move in the wind either A++ for me.
I am always trying to find that perfect disc, usually that magic driver that gets me to the basket in one, and I am still looking… In the last year that search has also included putters. I came across a 2009 Ace Race disc at Play It Again over the winter. A relatively soft disc with a bead. It’s profile is very similar to the Challenger that I used in the wind and a Magic I used when it was calm. Both of which felt the same in the hand. Since then I have Focused on it as being my primary putter. So much so that I bought another Ace Race disc to stow away, another used production run from Play It Again, and a brand new X Soft Focus from Infinite Discs. What a difference these putters have made on my short game. The Focus can consistently hold a lofted anny until the very end of it’s flight. It is dead nuts straight on snap drives and upshots. The putter holds a Hyzer and sticks to the chains well. I love this disc and have relegated all my other putters to the practice basket for the kids and visitors.
I do like the Zone for flicks and strong winds. It is a great disc that cuts through winds and always always comes back, whether thrown RHBH or RHFH. I am getting a Premium Jokeri to see how it compares to the Z Zone. I am hoping to rid my bag of hard plastics in exchange for consistent grip and chain grabbing stickiness…
I will continue my search for the ultimate discs. With Focus and determination my game will continue to improve!
Discmania’s P2 is my putter to go. No matter what, it will fly deadstraight, well, at least when I am throwing it!
Tried many putters in the last three years and have found gateways sss Caicos to be the.best.they can handle a power drive and are lasers from 80′ and in. The sss plastic really grabs the chains and allows you to float your putt in or power it, either way it sticks
I used to be a big fan of the Innova Aviars, but after throwing a Wizard, I quickly changed my mind. Then I purchased an MVP Anode. The Anode is by far the best putter I’ve thrown. Great straight putts. And, for me, 200-250′ drives, this thing is great. I want to try the prodigy putters because i want something i can drive 300′ easily. I’m just hoping these putters are what im looking for.
I love my X Putter for nice close putts, and I like my Innova Pig for longer spin putts or in the wind. It’s got great stability.
The Innova Aviar is the best putting putter because it works as a putter without having to put spin on it. Every other putter i have thrown seemed to need spin to keep it on course. The Aviars float to the chains with a push. That being said, they work well when thrown in other ways too. From a short drive, to a long putt, they are consistently effective. So, in conclusion, the disc that can be thrown as as driver, mid-range, or putter, is the choice. Not only is it the best putting putter, it is the hardest working disc in the game.
yeti pro ….just like the way it feels and flys
Love the judge for its versatility and the feel of it. Good for short drives and putting in the circle. It has a lower profile then most putters and flies straight with a lot of glide.
Wizard is the best putter. By far. All other putters i’ve thrown would alter their course slightly to the left or right of where i was aiming. Wizards, however…”are never too far left or too far right, they land precisely where they mean to.” [Pretty sure Gandalf would’ve stated that had he played Disc Golf]
Anyway, the Wizard always lands where i intend, never changing direction regardless of how far/short i throw it.
I recommend, strongly, to anyone looking for a putter, to choose the Wizard.
That is all.
I got a Wizard you can have. It turns left too much, foats away in the wind and the light hard plastic likes to bounce off the chains and away from the basket. It probably rolls away from the basket too. Sorry I had a bad experience with the only one I’ve thrown.
i’ve been through a good bit of putters since i started playing 4 years ago (from aviars all the way through wizards), but over the past year, the ion has found its way into my bag as my go to putter. i prefer a beaded putter, and the ion adds to that with the rubber outer rim that catches the chains better than the standard plastic seen with most putters. the flight path is dependable, and the disc seems to correct minor release flaws when thrown properly. this is something i haven’t seen with other putters. and the ion is the only putter i’ve been able to trust with a hyzer putt, an anhyzer putt, a straddle putt, and your standard push putt. put the line on it, and it will hold it. all in all, the perfect putter.
Discraft magnet is the best putter out there. I have tried many different putters but the magnet feels great and flies even better. The lip on the magnet is a perfect feel for your fingerif you are a spin putter like me
Ive tried so many putters, but the Pure is my jam. It does everything you could ever need a putter to do. I also bag Ions and a Jokeri for specific shots, but nothing…nothing!…putts like a Pure!
I am a turbo putter… Pretty accurate with it too. For longer shots, anything over 30 feet I’ll use my buzz or a driver depending on how far out I am, but within 30 feet I’ll use either an innova birdie or aviar. I like the birdie because it has a huge rim and its easy to grip the only bad thing is it has the potential to roll.
Good Luck in the contest everyone.
The Aviar is my new putter its just has the float without as much effort as some discs such as the rhyno. those long approaches can really be a killer without a disc that flies and drops quickly
Always been a fan of the broken in Pro plastic Aviars. They take a hard snap well enough to be accurate for longer putts, but have enough touch to make shorter technical putts also. They seem to fly heavier than their DX counterpart so wind is much less of an issue.
I like the P2 because it just works for me.. I really can’t explain why.
My best putters are the Aviars and the Wizards. I really liked the Wizard but someone stole it.
Right now the Warlock is my go to putter… stable but not too overstable. A versatile disc for a plethora of putting situations.
The Gateway Wizard is quickly becoming my favorite putter. The sheer amount of different variations is amazing. I have a G9i for driving and long approach shots and a SS chakly for anything inside 40 feet or so. The Disc goes on any line I put it on and has plenty of grip, especially the chalky, which feels amazing. Basically if you do your job with this disc it will do its….
