[Innova] Finding Perfect Approach/Putter

[Achasteen]

I'm looking for a midrange/putter that falls between a Mako3 Disc (5/5/0/0) and a Stingray Disc (4/5/-3/1)?

The Mako3 fades too early when powered down and the Stingray turns and wanders slightly too much right. Trying to find a perfect solution.

I am wondering about a Dart (3/4/0/0) or Cobra (4/4/-2/2), would one of these be a mix of both?

Thanks

Have you considered a Comet, or are you trying to stay with Innova?

What about a proxy? That's pretty close to what you are describing.

The site had me pick a brand, but I am open to anything. What are the flight specs for a Comet?

What are the fight specs for a proxy?

For mids:

Comet, Comet, Comet
Wombat3
M4

Lots and lots of straight-flying putters out there. What putter do you use, and will it fly the line you want?

They have it at 3/3/-1/.5 but it's super long for a putter. I've thrown them 325 in a field.

Agreed on the Proxy, mine is equally good FH or BH

I used to use the Mako3, but recently I have been using the Stingray. The Stingray is a great disc, but I'm looking for something slightly more stable.

I actually have a Wombat3 and that does sound like a good suggestion, except I don't like the vtech ridge on the rim. I will have to look into the Comet and M4.

Beyond that, why do you want a mid-range for approach shots?

From what you are describing, you are looking for something that stays straight without fade when powered down, but not have too much turn under power either. I have found that slower discs (putters) come the closest to being able to do both. Faster discs always have some fade when powered down - just the way it has to be.

Proxy might be close for you to try, but it will turn over a bit under full power, and have some small fade when powered down. MVP Spin? Dynamic Discs Deputy? Discraft Fierce? Slower but straighter. Just a difficult combo to get out of a disc.

Gstar Colt can be thrown 50 feet or 250 feet straight to straight finish. Comet can do pretty much the same but a little bit longer and floatier.

Try a Proxy. Plasma or Neutron plastic.

Latitude 64 Spike, Innova Colt or XT Stud.

Gateway Evo/HD Chief very little to no fade but the faster you throw it the more it will turn. After a bit of beating in anyways.

I think the Proxy is probably too straight. It's not really naturally understable. Comet, again I think too straight. You want something that turns some but not fade. I think Chief is the best disc I know of. Comet could work if you beat it in some and in X. But even then not much turn.

what about a regular mako

K1 Reko. Nuff said.
