I've been feeling like a has-been as a Wizard thrower, so yes, the Wizard's days as the official DGR putter are over. There are too many options for beaded putters in your plastic of choice for any one putter to stay on top.

I still think Gateway has the best assortment of putters - they cover all bases in any plastic you could want, but new guys are coming out with new putters and, let's face it, the putter is the safest bet. Doesn't have to go that far, just need to be able to putt with it. If you can drive with it, you garner more fans. Plus, they've had the benefit of checking out Gateway's success and looking at the dominant models.
I think Gateway sort of drove the wizard out of the market a bit by squeezing out 3 more models. Now you don't need beat wizards, you can pick up a new warlock/voodoo/magic to fill that slot.

ohhhhhhhh!
This is kind of interesting, because I JUST started using a wizard. Switched to them from KC Pro Aviars. Maybe they are similar discs, but the Wizard has filled that slot as my upshot putter really nicely. I guess I'm slow to catch on.
In a couple more years, I might even discover Destroyers!

I have a nice little stock of red OG Wizards and I intend on using each one until they are dead.
I still have the first 2 I ever bought as my all purpose putters. The plastic lasts forever, holds its shape wonderfully, not too glidey but just glidey enough, amazing grip, and even smells nice too.

Yea I like the stiff ones for driving.
Try out a Superglow for driving. The plastic is nice and stiff but has a way better grip than the Medium Flex. They do tend to beat in a bit quicker, though.
