My Actifit Report Card: January 26 2020

I threw a putter round today for practice. I didn't really keep score but it was somewhere around my usual two over par score for the nine basket course. There was no real chance at getting a birdie but it was really easy to get par for most of the baskets on the course.

I used seven putters for the round. Normally I would not be able to play a putter round so easily with just under-stable putters but I recently got a few over-stable throwing putters.

My new Harp discs are really great for throwing off the tee and stable enough to throw with a power grip or forehand. I'm really liking them. My new orange metal flake VIP plastic Harp looks and feels very much like my P3X disc. I threw the P3X once thinking it was the Harp I thought I had thrown it a lot differently when it turned all the way up into a roller. When I saw that it was not the Harp disc I figured out what had happened. I can usually throw the P3X around as far as the Harp but I need to throw it differently.

Lots of my putters work much better with a feather grip and slight nose up launch. It is really fun to do a putter round to see exactly how well you are releasing the discs. The putters show differences in the throw much better than drivers.

Here's a picture of seven putters clustered around the first basket of the round:

I didn't play more than one round today because the course is so muddy that it is not much fun to walk around on let alone throw discs.

Throwing putters gives you a feel for what the stability of the disc does for your game. I found that I can hit the basket better from closer distances with a less stable disc. This type of disc tends to land flat and plant where it lands.

A more stable disc has to be thrown harder to reach the basket on a straight shot and if it misses it will sail farther away from it. When the disc fades it will come down on a steeper angle when it hits the ground and might skip more. I find it easier on longer throws to use a more stable disc so I don't have to worry about it turning up into a roller or going off course.

I'm definitely going to be doing some more putter rounds. It is a fun way to learn about how the discs fly and what it takes to throw them well.
