[Putters] ISO: Shallow, Beadless Slightly Overstable Putter

[bhadella]

I think I have a gap I want to fill. I currently carry:

Zero Medium Pure (putts, upshots, drives that need to stick)
Trashed Opto Pure (stable upshots, driving, anhyzers)
Fresh Opto Pure (understable driving and upshots)
ESP Zone (overstable drives and approaches, spike hyzers, forehand rollers)

I need something inbetween my Opto Pures and ESP Zones for approaches. I want a similar hand feel to my Pures and Zones; so shallow and beadless are prerequisites. What are my options? Jokeri? PA2?

Axiom envy.

Slightly overstable shallow beadless putter equals envy. Great throwing putter!

I came in here to say Pure, but it looks like you're already covered there.

Have you tried the Prodigy putters? PA1 or PA2 might fit that slot well.

 

[Alcuin]

Definitely Envy. Such a great disc.

Jokeri is good but i think its closer to your zone than what youre looking for. A 300 or 400 pa1 is nice. 300 pa2 (the 400 feel deeper to me)

Maybe try a D Zone and beat it in a bit?

Pures are pretty neutral for me with minimal finish. I'm definitely needing something like KC Aviar (except shallow and non-beaded) in slight overstability.

That isn't a bad idea. Cheap, same grip, etc.

Beat a D Zone... you dont need more putter molds!

I've bagged PA2s over PA1s because they have a little extra glide off the tee that pairs with my Opto Pure a little better. I have thrown both 300S and 400S, and I'm bagging the 400S because of the durability. Both are pretty great though.

The Envy is another decent choice, but I couldn't get it to fly consistently how I wanted. In all fairness, I didn't spend a ton of time with it though.

A seasoned D Zone would definitely work, but you want to look for the velvety ones (almost Soft X feel) over the waxy ones. The waxies are garbage.

Pwingles is spot on about the Jokeri being closer to the Zone.

Just got back on the site two days ago... I only throw wizards and Zones now. Need to update the sig thanks. Bullet XD's I collect.

Breaker, if you want very shallow, but Envy is what you need flight-wise. If it's windy I carry both. The Breaker is very reliable into a moderate headwind without being too overstable. You should feel one up before you dismiss it for having a bead.

I believe you want to try the Axiom Envy. :thmbup:

Envy. Opto pure holds straight longer. That or a basic Jokeri. Not a premium. both have a flatter feel in the hand compared to any of the PA series imo. Not as deep a shoulder.

 

[blackcatsmith]

The PA2. My main putter as of late and a fine driver. Save the 300S for putting, use the 400S for driving and ups.

 

[bhadella]

You guys are 100% correct on the Envy. Feels just like my Opto Pures in the hand but has a fade finish and holds up to a headwind. Not overstable, just a nice little fade at the end.
