[Putters] Throwing approach shots with … putters

[seedlings]

I loved the Harp for FH and BH approaches for a while until the Stego gave them the boot. Then I started using the Berg for straighter shots to replace the Rhyno.

Whaddya know… now I'm preferring a P2 for everything. It took a while for me to get the hang of flicking putters. 6 months ago I'd never have thought I wouldn't use an 'approach disc', but now it's tempting to get two slots back in the bag. The Berg is still handy because of it's low glide and sticking in place. The Stego is used on rare occasions for super awkward angles.

I once saw Steve Peck throw an RHFH on hole 17 at Hudson Mills original with a Magnet and park it under the basket.

The beauty of disc golf is that there is no one way to approach a shot. Throw what works best for your skills.

Nose-up putter anny approaches have been working great lately.

Skills are out of stock everywhere.

That happens when you pinch yourself off on the extreme right side of a fairway enough to get some some serious practice in!

Harp is more like a midrange disc, same with the Zone. They are called putters but let's face a simple fact, when was the last time you saw someone actual put with a Harp or a Zone. Ok, not counting a 20mph head wind in Oklahoma.......

You could always just throw a 40-75% Banshee shot from 125 out. I hear good players do that.

What if I told you you dont need to drive with a driver?

Not really a fan, but I did enjoy seeing Drew Gibson throwing a Z Buzzz off almost every tee at Northwoods. I think we'll see more of that at Idlewild this weekend.

Next you will be telling me I don't need to putt with a putter!

That's a 950 rated play if I've ever seen one

and you don't have to putt with a Puttr...

I putt with Wizards...

and will sometimes drive with them as well...

Every course, every situation is different - as long as the disc is PDGA approved and gets there legally, it is all good.

I like using Pures, Aviar3s, Zones, Meteors, Justices, and Tilts to get under the basket

If this is long tee my mind is blown.

It was a league round, so prob short tee. (It was a while ago)

I mean, still an incredible shot. That takes a REALLY clean release for that kind of speed on a putter FH.
