Putting With Finger On Rim
During one of my first rounds of disc golf in 2002 I lined up for my first disc golf putt with my index finger on the rim of my Discraft Elite Z Putt’r. My mentor, Matt, immediately corrected me and sternly stated, “Never putt with your finger on the rim!”. Matt never provided a compelling reason against using my index finger to support the putter, he only warned me that that it can cause unbalanced putts and suggested that many people carry this habit over from throwing Ultimate discs or casual Frisbees. So, is it okay to put with your index finger on the rim of your disc golf putter?

Discraft Roach Review
The Discraft Roach is the final release of the 2015 Discraft Ace Race disc. The Roach was a hit from the start and was one of Discrafts most popular Ace Race molds. As Discraft began releasing the Roach in more plastics, we began to get hooked, and now the Roach is a mainstay in our bags in various plastics for many purposes.

Building Your Putter Comfort
Quick Disc Golf Tip: Always keep your putter within arm’s reach. Most disc golfers agree that being comfortable and familiar with your putter is essential for optimal putting performance. If you haven’t built up your putter comfort it’s difficult to know your putter well in order to be consistent. Spending time with your putter is simply the best way to build your putter comfort. On the course is optimal, but we don’t always have time and that’s alright. Keep your putter within reach when you’re not on the course so you can pick it up throughout the day and hold it for a few moments. The repetition with your standard putting grip builds muscle…

Discraft Zone Review
The Discraft Zone putter is one of the most overstable and consistent putters I’ve thrown. It landed a spot in my bag immediately but it took a few weeks to get comfortable with it because it demands power and control for proper use. Once it’s dialed in though, it can quickly become a go-to approach putter that can be used in many situations.

Prodigy PA4 Review
When Infinite discs set us up with a Prodigy PA4 to review I had not looked at the numbers but immediately thought, “Holy cow this feels like my Magic!”

Disc Golf Analysis – Throw Average Stability
A few weeks back I wrote a disc golf analysis article on the Bag Average Stability (BAS) metric. That was a measure of the average stability of all the discs in your bag intended to help you determine if throwing more stable discs overall may increase the consistency of your game. Near the end of the article I made a strong point that calculating your BAS is pointless if you include discs that you never throw. So as a follow up to that article I’m introducing the disc golf metric of Throw Average Stability (TAS).

Prodiscus Jokeri Review
Infinite Discs recently hooked us up with a Prodiscus Jokeri to review and this was a fun putter to throw! Prodiscus’ Jokeri putter did everything that it was designed to do. It was a very stable disc that held a straight line and faded hard and predictably at the end and it felt more comfortable in my hand than many discs in its category.

Latitude 64 Pure Review
The Latitude 64 Pure is giving my Gateway Wizard serious competition for a spot in my bag, and that says an awful lot. Tim over at mindbodydisc.com pointed me toward the Pure and I’m convinced he just wanted to watch me obsess over which amazing putter would win the battle for a spot in my disc golf bag.
