Over the past 13 years I’ve changed putters only once. Now with Kastaplast’s release of the Reko putter I’m changing for just the second time. That’s how solid of a putter the Kastaplast Reko is.

Disc Golf Beginnings
“You’ve never heard of disc golf?” asked Matt. “No,” I replied, “What is it?” “It’s like golf but you throw discs into a basket.” “Baskets? What kind of baskets?” “They’re poles with chains on them and a basket at the bottom. Discs are like Frisbees but they’re smaller and heavier and Frisbee is about form but disc golf is all about power.”

Gateway Devil Hawk Review
Many disc stores categorize the Devil Hawk as a midrange disc rather than a putt and approach disc, though Gateway has it in the putter section. Does it perform like a midrange or a putter?

Flick Putting
Consider this scenario. You’re 100 ft from the basket with several trees directly in your line.

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?

Mind Your Misses
January in Michigan brings cold weather and snow. Today I played several rounds after a winter storm layered ice on top of an inch of snow. The ground was firm enough in most places that it didn’t even collapse under my feet. As a result, every putt posed an interesting question: do I go for the make or just lay up? What is the proper strategy in the Approach Zone?
