I'm a dead center chain putter. I aim for the pole. I have to adjust when (practice) putting with my P1x, to avoid bounce outs. Usually from 20+ out. I'm not saying it's every time, but I don't adjust with Yetis. The role that my P1x has is approach and some driving duties. I am adamant about the P1x being the best approach Disc. I've never had something so reliable. Plus, i6 has tremendous glide, which adds to its strength. I can reach longer lengths that require hitting lines.
It just works for me like my Nova did, but feels more comfortable in the hand.
Got my D Line P1x yesterday and got a chance to putt with it in the garage. Plastic feels very similar to my Aviar P&A, dare I say a bit more tacky. Not as much as the Yeti Pro, but P&A+. Looking forward to throwing it outside, but it may be a long time if it stays this cold...
The bead is maybe a "minimal feel" bead compared to your "strong" bead putters. The nose is rounded underneath and the bead feels like it's way under there, like a Spider. The bead on the Judge, Yeti, Challenger are more apparent. This is like a bead for people who like beadless putters. It's there, and because of the nose, it moves the bead out a little farther on my index finger. Still feels reassuring to have it there to place my finger, but it's more subtle.
Attached Profiles of other putters, and bead position Profiles. It's just as far away from the nose as most of the putters, but feels like it's farther underneath due to the deep round nose, rather then convex underwing of the Yeti or Judge. The nose and bead configuration look and feel much like the Ridge, that is, if you can stand the feeling of flat slick rubber :gross:
Height wise, I get this, tallest to flattest on the table:
Classic Aviar
Magnet
Aviar P&A = P1x = Yeti Pro (Yeti feels shallower due to puddle top)
Challenger (I have an old ProD that now has a sunken top, so maybe it's shorter now)
Ridge = Judge

Picked up an X P1x from rallyguy today, and I'm really enjoying it so far. Took me a bit to dial it in for putting - the plastic is super tacky and it's a bit more floaty than I'm used to - but for drives it is a blast to throw. Really easy to put on multiple lines. I love my Atom, but this is going to be fun to test out.
My favorite thing is throwing anhyzers with my XP1x. I end up approaching baskets throwing anhyzers because I like how much control it gives me on that flight path.
