I love putters. Half my bag is putters of differing types.

Brick - CrystalFlx Zone, Opto Caltrop, Ricky Pig, JB Zone, Star Rhyno
Lid - DX Polecat, Star Sonic, ESP Rattler (sort of a lid)
Putter - Yeti Aviar, Electron Atom, DX Dart, Zero Hard Spike, Zero Hard Pure, KC Aviar, SS Wizard

Other putters will make their way in/out of the bag, but that's my core setup.
 
On an open course pretty much all of my approaches are with a Medium Harp. Throw it flat, account for the fade, and it usually ends up near the basket.

In the woods (where I play most of the time), nearly all approaches are with XT Studs (pretty straight) and I rarely throw the Harp unless I need to do something tricky.

Stud is a nice disc people like for power putting like my brother. There is a reason a few pro's use the disc either for a long putter or power putting in DX/XT maybe R-Pro. Then some sponsored pros use other plastics for a true driving putter for the Stud. For me I do not like the square style to the rim, it feels off but I would then Use the Colt in G-Star if I did not have such a similar disc from Lighting #2 Upshot in Prostyle.
