The wizard is my favorite putter that I keep buying more of, so I'm am looking to hopefully get a solid answer here. My understanding is that putters in general can have a max weight of 175g, correct? But according to the PDGA, the max weight wizard can be 174.3g due to the disc diameter (See Link: http://www.pdga.com/documents/pdga-approved-discs).
Additionally, I emailed Gateway and they told me that 175g is the max weight. Aren't they lieing to me according to the PDGA website.
So why do they do sell advertised 175g Wizards if technically they are illegal?
Also I see max weight wizards advertised all the time and the advertised weight is 175g. Shouldn't the advertised max weight be 174g disc?
Side note: I may be looking into this too much, but I just want to make sure I'm playing with legal discs. I bought one 175g wizard before I realized and now I been buying 172-173 wizards to account for the incorrect marking on the disc (the 175g I got really weighs in at like 177). I'm okay with the weights not being exactly what is says on the disc. I understand it's not a perfect process. I just want confirmation that a 175g marked disc is legal or not?
Thanks in advance to anyone who may respond to my craziness.
