Best Disc Golf Putter?
Without question, the best way to improve your score in a round of disc golf is to make putts. With more than 100 different putt and approach discs on the market, choosing the right putter can be overwhelming.
We understand that there is no putter which will be the best for everyone, and that this debate can never be fully settled. After all, we all have different styles and preferences. In an effort to help you determine which putt and approach discs are superior, we ask for your opinion, “What is the best putter for disc golf?” Please leave your comments to share what you love about your favorite putter.
For your consideration, here are the 10 top-selling putters in 2016 at Infinite Discs:
- Dynamic Discs JUDGE
- Gateway WIZARD
- Innova AVIAR
- Westside HARP (popular approach/ driving putter)
- Discmania P2 “Psycho”
- Latitude 64 PURE
- Dynamic Discs WARDEN
- Innova NOVA (popular approach/driving putter)
- Latitude 64 DAGGER
- Discraft ZONE (popular approach/driving putter)
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 have really grown to love my MVP Anodes. They seem like the black rim is made out of magnets that go straight into the chains. I love them not only for putting, but for short drives and approach shots. They hold whatever line you put on them perfectly. They respond well to the amount of power and spin you put on them. More and more I’m finding more uses for it. I have 3 of them currently that each have their own place. I wouldn’t be without them in my bag!
For the longest time I used jk aviars but recently I took the aviars out of my bag and switched to the Gateway super soft wizard. The wizard is an awesome straight flying putter that holds any line extremely well even in the wind. The wizard is so versatile it is even a great driving putter of the tee pad. I use mine in any situation where I need a dependable shot under 200 ft.
By far my favorite putter is my P1- Maniac by Discmania. It flies true every time and allows me to whoop on my coworkers/buddies every time I’m out on the course. A couple of them like the disc and are thinking of getting one. But I sure would to try the Prodigy PA-4.
My legacy protege’ closer. Good for long approaches, short shots push putts and everything on between, improved my game by at least 3 strokes!
I love the old soft tacky Aviar putters! Now, that doesn’t mean that I haven’t liked other soft tacky putters as well! It’s just something about how they grab the chains and NEVER seem to let go. I’m hoping that the new MVP soft Neutron Ions are just as good if not better!!
Right now it’s my soft magnet.
But after an upcoming Vibram Birdie Bash, I might have a new fave.
Any thing innova is the putter of my choice
I’ve only thrown a handful of putters, but I do LOVE my Judges. It was the first putter I started making my longer putts with and now seems like the only one I need. The best part about it is that you get to stay, “And the verdict is….” right before you putt 🙂
I have used many types of putters from Aviars to Banger GT’s to MVP proton. I found that those putters for me didn’t hold their lines too well. Then I threw a Gateway Wizard and felt like I was meant to throw it. I love my Wizard. I use it for all my putts. It has excellent glide and flies exactly where I aim with no surprises. It works well for my anhyzer, hyzer, and straight ahead putts. I would be lost with out it.
I love the anode by MVP awesome off the tee, inside the circle and everywhere in between!!
My favorite putter is the Latitude 64 Zero Line Spike. I’ve tried a few other putters from other companies and the Spike is the best for me. It has a shallower grip that doesn’t catch on my fingers after the release. The traction zones on the top add to the uniqueness of this disc. It gives additional grip when you need it most.
Other people that I play with have also gained increased interest in this putter. Just today one of my friends asked if I could go online and pick one up for him.
I can’t say enough about this disc. Ever since I’ve purchased my Spike, my putting has improved drastically!
I say with full 100% confidence that the Gateway Wizard is by far the best putter on the market. Nothing beats this putter. I have tried every manufacturer and nothing comes close to my SS Wizards. I prefer the SS because it is the perfect blend of stiff and softness. It’s easy to grip and comes out of the hand like butter. When these discs break in, putting will be the number 1 part of your game. Even broken in, the SS Wizard is great for approach shots as well. It’s at the perfect place where it’s not overstable or understable. They will hold whatever you give it. Prodigy’s putters are going to be interesting and good competition. I would like to see if they can replace my beloved SS wizards. It’s going to be tough to beat it!
I’ve only thrown Innova putters because locally that is what is available. I have been thinking about ordering off the net. I have three classic Avairs, a Dart and 2 Birdies. I typically throw all six from a spot, then from a new spot and so on in a practice session. The Birdies are the only putters that consistently end up in the basket. They fly straight and usually don’t go far if I miss. When I need to make a putt, I reach for a Birdie because I can count on it and that’s what I have.
Love the challenger soft! Why is it better than all other discs for putting? The way the disc fits in my hand and the grip I get from the plastic is comfortable and gives me confidence as I throw. It flies straight and within putting range really does not fade. Also, it fights head winds well, and performs well in most winds (disclaimer: gale force winds are a little above this disc’s pay grade!) Ultimately, the fact that the challenger grabs the chains and stays in the basket, once again, love this disc!
I love infinite discs! You guys are awesome! I use the Anode MVP and I love it. I’ve been playin for only 6 months but once I got the MVP my putting has majorly improved. It’s a smooth straight disk that hits nothin but chains. Plus it’s cool look makes all the other disc golfers look twice. You want my opinion? The Anode MVP is the disk to take your putting to the next level! But don’t just take my word for it! Get yours at infinitediscs.com !!!
This comment = beautiful!
We love you too Carter!
I as well have tried many putters and I loved the Yeti Pro as well as the Wizard for a long time. It wasn’t until I got a few Discmania P-2’s for free that I started using them and haven’t put them down since. They fly very straight with minimal fade. They work great off the tee (although I still prefer a Wizard), they are beautiful for some short approach shots and are money for the closers… I also just really like the feel of the D-line P-2, what else can I say?
Is this really worth arguing about?! Hands down the Gateway Wizard is the best chain banger out there! I just ordered another one off of infinitediscs in the super stupid sticky slimey soft smasher style and love it!!
The slight fade at the end is just what I’m looking for. I have tried many putters in my frolf days and this is the one that will grab chains and give you birdies.
Putt your way into heaven!!
The Innova Aviar is my preferred putt and approach disc. It’s a must have in your disc bag. Easy to manage when first starting off. Always reliable.
Love me some Gateway Evo Warlock!
Feels great in the hand in all weather conditions – it gets pretty cold up here in Canada! Holds any line and grabs the chains well.
I love my soft Vibram Ridge. When it hits chains, it sticks. No questions.
