[Innova] Pro Vs. R Pro Rhyno

[QuinnAA199]

What are the differences in the Pro Vs. R Pro Rhynos? What makes them worth more money? What colors are the rarest to most common. Thanks in advance.

all i know pro rhynos they dont make any more so that right there raises the demand/price

 

[bsstarnesj]

honestly the newer r pros ive felt have been pretty close to the feeling of pros, nice and flat as well

 

[jtbingster]

From what I've heard, the R-Pros don't break in as nicely or slowly as the old Pros, so the Pros are more sought after.

The r-pros are crap IMO. They beat in really fast and easily get warped in any kind of heat. The flight plate creases easily... No bueno

 

[sammoeller]

I like pros because they have the nice grip, but most are not nearly as soft and floppy as r pro. Some can be pretty soft, but the stiffer ones are awesome.

I have a r pro that if I were to wipe the stamp, you couldnt tell the difference between it and my pro.

R-Pros tend to be more gummy, but slick as well. Some R-Pros are labeled R-Pro, but feel like the Pros during the transitional period. There are a few different runs of Pro. In the beginning, they felt soft and chalky like the Pro Lines. Towards the end they became stiffer but still had a grippy feeling.

Pros were readily available in white, white, and white. Rare colors are anything but white. Orange, yellow, red, blue, and green were available to my knowledge.

R-Pros seem to be available in a ton of colors, but white is very common. Go figure.

I don't throw rhynos at all but when it comes to my Pigs, Pro beats the snot out of r-pro. R-Pro is just cheap, beats in too quickly and loses its flight characterists. Pro feels better imo, stays true longer and wears over time better.

Guess I better not lose my yellow Pro Ryhno then.

They're out there, just not as many as whites. I have a yellow I can part with

What about champion rhynos. I love my r pro rhyno and don't want to start buying oop plastic. How do you champion rhyno throwers like them compared to r pro. Does the champion drasticly change the flight?

Sorry for the thread drift I just wanted to ask this since we are discussing rhynos.

I throw the shat out of rhynos so I will chime in here. I putt with soft pro's and drive with champs.
Pro vs r-pro
Difference in feel of plastic ( only slight). Both plastics have varying degrees of stiffness ranging from firm to soft. If you pick up a pile of both you can find firm or soft in pro or r-pro. Some of us prefer a very specific feel. Both pro and r-pro will not hold up to many tree hits this is why I drive with the champs. I will not putt with a new pro or r-pro putter, they need to have a bit of the stability knocked outta them for 30 -50 putts to fly straight.

Champ vs pro flight
Champ rhynos are quite a bit more stable than pro's. Champ rhynos will still survive hundreds of tree hits, pro's will start to fly different after 5-10 tree hits. I use beat to hell pro for turnover shots and hyzer flip anny shots.

As someone who is very picky about my pro rhyno putter I will tell you that it is all in one's head, I could switch to a suitable r-pro without missing a beat.

Throw whatever feels right in your hand and to your pocket.

so how about ones that say proline rhyno...i'm pretty sure this thing has age....i bought a bag filled with nice plastic at a garage sale and this old proline rhyno was some of my treasure....

I have thrown rhynos of varying plastics over the past 6 years. The only plastic I didn't care for in a Rhyno is Star plastic. Just never could get into it, even the CFR star gummy ones. I am liking the XG gummy champion Rhynos. The one I am currently using now is a day glo factory second one. One complaint for me, just a personal one, is that when I putt hard and hit dead center pole and chain, it bounces back out. It will sometimes go through the chains and out the backside. With that said I still make more than I lose to fly outs.

This is soooooo true. Really no big difference just in the head. R-pro beats in almost the same as Pro IMO and when the Pig stopped being produced in Pro I switched to and R-Pro and noticed no real difference.

I accidentally left an R-Pro Rhyno on the course last year. Can't say that I miss it.

Speaking of Pro-line & Special Edition Rhynos, someone message me if you'd like to get rid of one of yours.. Cash or trades ready!

Wow. You waited two years to do that.
