What do you guys like putting with? What'd you start with and what do you use now and how'd you get there?

I myself started with Aviars, moved to Wizards, then to Judges and from there dropped the bead and began using P2s and finally settled on classic Wardens which I love, but I miss the over-stability the judges offered, might try some DX Aviar3s, is that crazy to say? Have a star one that I'm in love with for up shots and it feels perfect in the hand.
 
challenger - > omega ss - > aviar -> ridge - > sole -> summit -> swan 1 reborn -> mercy -> swan2 - > atom -> envy

a zone was in there till i found an envy

it has been one hell of a trip. but firm putters that are shallow work the best for me. so now it's a combination of envy's, swan1r, and firm/proton atoms.

but, i still have more to try....lol
 
Started with Star Aviar P&A and never gelled with it. Also tried the Nova, but the 'compass points' give me issues (they cut my fingers). I liked the stiffness of the McPro Aviars, but they were limited and hard to get. Tried the Soft APX; great putter, too soft material. Tried the Prodigy Pa4 and the Reko. Then I settled on the Classic Blend Judge and Classic Blend Warden. I would putt with one 'for the record', then throw the other. Over time, the Warden showed itself to be the best disc for me. I then tried the Classic plastic, and I was home.

The APX and Challenger are now out in Jawbreaker plastic, which is the firmness of Classic Blend. I really like the APX. The P-Line Discmania P2 is very good also. But to this point, the Classic Warden is still king of the hill (and bag).
 
P1 -> Berg -> P1x -> P3 -> Pure -> Splinter -> P2 -> P1 -> Pa3/Pa4 -> Reko

And all this in just two years :D Now i'm sticking with my Rekos, they are almost perfect. I just don't feel comfortable with them in headwind putts.
 
Aerobie Arrow > MVP Ion > Anode > Vibram Sole > Ridge

I've tried out a million other things. I really like the Reptilian Scale & Serpent, but I am way to heavily invested in Ridges to change now.

Aviar PnA (for a couple weeks)-> Soft Warden (for about a month)-> Scale (for a couple months)-> Polecat since then

The Polecat is the only putter that I have felt remotely comfortable with for putting

I've been through a lot of them, as my game/putting technique has changed or developed.

Aviar pna > Wizard > KC Aviar > Magic > Voodoo > Challenger > Judge > Swan2 > and now the Warden.

You can see for a while I didn't know if I liked beaded or not beaded putters. Now I've finally decided that non-beaded is for me, and found (again, hopefully) what I think is easily the most comfortable for me.
 
Rubber Putter
Magnet

Settled on XT Aviars for a long time and currently bag them, with no plans to switch.
Of course, I did pick up a Pilot recently and I've rather enjoyed it.

More than any other disc, I love putters.

Aviar (duh) > Magic > Sole

That's about it. I've thrown various other putters for short times, but really these are the only 3 I have bagged consistently. Been using Soles for 4+ years now.
 
Aviar P&A for a while, then KC Aviar, then tried out a Challenger, a Magnet, a Wizard, then settled on Yeti Aviars for a while. Tried the Classic Aviar and it just felt right, so I've been putting with them since then. Was using KC/Yetis for throwing, but once I tried the Aviar3 it felt right. So for me it's Classic Aviars for putting, Aviar3 for driving/approaching.
 
For me the putter progression has been like this;

Aviar-Rhyno-Wizard-Warlock-Wizard-GUI- Touch-Atom

Through the process I've come to learn that I don't grip deeper putters well, and that beadless putters come out cleaner for me.

The Atom has taken my putting game from below average to passable, and I have picked up a few strokes a round because of it. The only other one I've tried and like the feel of as well is the Swan 2, but the wind bats it around a lot.
 
Soft Judge > Hard Spike > Retro Pure > Fuzion Judge (not changing anytime soon, perfect blend of grip/stiffness for me)
 
Challenger -> Omega SS -> Judge -> Wizard -> Clutch

I still have a healthy stack of awesome Wizards tempting me to come back...

Wizard. I've tried a few others but it was a relatively easy choice for me. Love the plastic, the profile and the stability.
