The newest run of Moonshine Warships is pretty fantastic also.

What's the difference between origio and bt?
Origio feels similar to DD/LAT Retro/Prime whereas BT is more identifiable with Classic/Zero.

I don't know the difference between those either lol
Honestly, in my opinion very little. I just compared my BT Northman to my Origio Warship and I really couldn't tell the difference. The Origio may be a little waxier, but they are real close to me.

They did release some origio Bards but to me they were a disappointment, very little glide and the grip didn't feel as good to me as the TP and VIP versions for some reason.
Retro Anchor felt a lot better so I switched to the Anchor as my main mid.
Price difference is about 3 bucks. Origio/Retro/Prime is supposed to be like innova's DX or Discraft Pro-D. I personally don't think BT/Zero/Classic feels like any of the other manufacturers(I've not felt Pro or R-Pro from innova). The feel, touch, grip of the putters is one of the bigger reasons I like the Westside/Latitude/Dynamic

Are you talking about the BT Bards? I have some of those, and I love them. Much flatter though. I was hoping an origio run would have a little pop on them.

No, proper Origio Bards, board flat and very little glide unfortunately. They're available at Powergrip.fi under their Finnish name Laulaja. Powergrip does international shipping but I guess it might get expensive...

I got a couple of these from MST, should be waiting for me at home. I'm hoping these beat intp an S curve Bard. Even my two year old VIP Bards are still beefy like a fresh Roc.
One of the best feeling mids out there.

I have quite a few bt bards i'm using as a bookend/faster beefy roc, and they're quite nice. Wondering if they'll lose fade, or turn first. Hoping turn for more of a role in the bag. Let me know if anyone has a question about them, or wants a profile pic.

Bards seem to lose fade rather than gain any turn when broken in.

Yeah my BT bards started to lose fade and gain glide somewhat quickly. I lost one recently and it hurt, A LOT.

I've got some I'd be willing to part with thatbare unthrown. I was throwing them but switched back to DX Rocs. I think I have about 5.
These are true BT Bards? Not the finnish stamped BT Origio?

I've been liking by Origio Bards, they have beat into where a fresh TP or DX Roc fresh would be, and still no turn.
I'm digging it so far, good addition to the bag. May buy a couple more while they are available.
