[Putters] Not having a specific putting putter

[Keith H]

I don't bother to carry putting putters, I just go for an ace every time...

Of course I end up having to throw one of my 3 driving putters, when I miss the ace.... So there's that.

But seriously
3 putters - 2 hard, 1 soft.

The hards are my putting AND driving putters. They are weight matched and interchangable; the soft only comes out for a dangerous landing zone.

Couple extra in a bin in case I lose 1 or damage it too badly.

I've got a mixed bag and still sorting out what I like.

For putts inside C1 it almost always an SS Wizard. If there is a chance of a roll away it's the Wizard.

I bought a 5 pack of Prime Wardens a year ago to practice putting. I also bought a softer Warden when I bought the Wizard.

I have a prime judge as well, and an DX Aviar.

I'm trying to decide what to throw for the upshot or long putts. Right now it's usually a Prime Warden, but liking the Aviar.

I am carrying 4 putters right now. Going with what I feel like in the moment. Most often the Wizard or longer putts it is the Warden.

I like the stiffer plastic for longer throws as it seems straighter with more glide.

 

[Um...]

Mold minimalist here. I like having the confidence in the feel of a single mold that can be lined up to perform different duties.

I carry 4-5 Judges with me in my main bag:

1 max weight Classic - Putting putter only,
1 beaten in Classic - My old putting only putter that has been relegated to longer anny putts, floaty touch shots, air bounces,
1 167g Lucid - Main driving and long range putter. Despite the weight and how much it's been thrown, this the most OS Judge in my bag and has been for years now,
1 max weight Fuzion - 1st run from 2013 GBO player pack. Straight/turnover drives. Hyzer flip machine,
1 max weight Lucid-X - Do it all putter. This putter is in and out of my main bag, depending on the course, but it's the main putter I take whenever I'm playing with a small bag or if I'm traveling and just have 3-4 discs with me.

I carry 2 putting putters (DX Aviars, 1 super old and 1 less worn in). Then I have 2 driving/approach putters (MVP Ohms, 1 older and 1 newer). I also have one overstable MVP Entropy for forehand and windy approaches.

 

[OnlyZuul]

My home course (for reasons no one can explain to me) installed these abomination number plates onto the tops of the baskets:

They are thin and my "putting" putter is sliced up like a ham sammich due to those damn things. So much for a smooth and consistent feel because I'm just using it for putting. :\

How bad does it irritate you? For a small amount of time and money, you could do "public service".

I am using different molds for driving/approaching vs putting. I like the Wizard for putting and Envy for straight driving/approach. But maybe someday I will find a putter that i like for putting and driving. I also use Zone and Sol for drives/approaches that need overstable/understable flights...but these are really just slow mid range discs, right?

Same here.

Eraser Wizard for putting. I think soft plastic sticks to the chains better. Every time I use hard plastic I get spit outs. I don't drive with it as one bad bounce can alter its flight. ( I think this but I my dog has been chewing a couple discs for a year and they fly the same.)

A backup putter or two for practice. Or if the wizard is acting up and needs a time out

Plasma Envy for drive/approach. I like it to be able to handle the bounces.

 

[ThrowaEnvy]

Yup I'm pretty much here to echo everyone else... I have a stack of about 9-10 plasma 167 envy. Out of that stack 2 are "yard" discs meaning heavily seasoned (took 3 years), 3-4 are "getting there" and the others are pretty stiff still but no where near out of the box ridiculous.

I practice putt with all of them and I drive and putt with the same ones. Due to them being a premium plastic I'm not worried about a tragic tree hit, that's why I stopped throwing magnets. Come tourney time I bag two that are similar, many times I will throw 5 putts or so with all of em and see which 2 get in the basket the most.

I generally pick one to putt with, I especially like having two for competition in case I lose one or more likely I hit a bad streak with my putts... I blame the putter and start putting it's buddy to try and get my mojo right.
