This is true. A lot of people are suggesting things like Buzzzes and Leopards, which I recommend buying anyway because they are great discs, and as a beginner you should try them out just as a barometer to tell what types of discs you like.
HOWEVER, they don't fly like neutral putters. I would recommend starting with a SLOW (speed 4) mid, which should fly more like a fast putter than a slow driver. The Mako fits this description to a T. I would also recommend a Comet in maybe BigZ plastic, around 170g.
Throwing a faster disc like a leopard, or even a buzzz really, on a straight line like a pure is a completely different feat that requires a set of skills/abilities that you're still working on. Again, I recommend both of these discs even to a novice, but they won't fly neutral out of the box.
