Prodigy Disc
SKU: DG-PDG-300SF-PA5 (REF2496-7)
Description
The Prodigy 300 Soft Fractal PA-5 putter is a silky-smooth understable putter, molded in 300 Soft Fractal plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on slow turnovers and straight hyzer-flips. If you're shopping for a dependable PA-5 for your bag, this 300 Soft Fractal run is a great place to start.
300 Soft Fractal Plastic
300 Soft is a much more flexible version of Prodigy's 300 baseline plastic, able to absorb more impact and produce less ground play on approaches and putts. Fractal uses a proprietary processing technique that splashes colors in a complex, abstract motif: calming, chaotic, and completely one-of-a-kind.
The Mold
The PA-5 hits beautiful slow turnover lines and dead-straight hyzer-flips. Its narrow feel gives an easy release and a little extra speed, and for putting, it suits players who like a straight putter with little left or right movement, even from long range.
Stability
The PA-5 is understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 3 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 4 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | -2 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 0.5 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
