MATERIAL:
Discraft Soft Putter Line plastic is a variation of their standard Putter Line plastic, designed specifically for putting and approach shots that prioritize grip, feel, and control. Here's a breakdown of its key features:

Softer Feel: Compared to the baseline Putter Line, the Soft Putter Line plastic offers a noticeably softer and more flexible feel. This enhances grip, especially in cold or wet conditions, and can be more comfortable for players who prefer a putter that conforms better in their hand.

Improved Control: The increased softness can also translate to improved touch and control on approach shots and putts. Some players find the softer plastic allows for a smoother release of the disc, leading to more finesse and accuracy.

Similar Durability: While softer, Discraft Soft Putter Line plastic remains quite durable for a putter. It can handle the wear and tear of regular putting rounds and shouldn't crack easily.

Disc Applications: This plastic excels for putting and technical approach shots where precision and feel are paramount. It's a popular choice for players who prioritize these aspects of their short game.

Discraft Soft Putter Line plastic caters to disc golfers who value a soft, grippy feel and maximum control in their putting and approach shots. It offers a comfortable grip in various weather conditions while maintaining good durability for a putter.

DESCRIPTION:
Discraft Focus is a putter designed to fill the gap between a classic, overstable putter and a straight flying approach disc. Here's a breakdown of its key characteristics:

Speed (2): This putter falls into the slow-speed category, ideal for controlled approaches and accurate putting.

Turn (-0.5):  A slightly understable turn rating indicates the Focus will have a minimal tendency to turn over during the initial flight phase, especially with moderate throws. This allows for a straighter flight path compared to very overstable putters.

Fade (1):  Low fade rating signifies the Focus will have a slight left turn (for right-handed backhand throws) at the end of its flight path. This provides a predictable finish with enough fade for precise approach shots and wind resistance in putting.

Glide (3):  The Focus maintains moderate glide, offering decent airborne time for controlled approaches and putting from various distances.

Stability (0.5):  The combination of minimal turn and slight fade creates a disc that's slightly understable-leaning but fairly neutral overall. This provides a good balance between control and maneuverability.

Plastics:  The Focus comes in a variety of Discraft plastics, each offering variations in feel and grip. Popular options include Pro-D (soft and grippy, good for putting with a touch of turn potential), Classic Blend (grippy and durable, good for all uses), and ESP (flexible and grippy, offering a straighter flight compared to Classic Blend).

Discraft Focus is a versatile putter that caters to a wide range of players. Its straighter flight path with a hint of turn makes it a good option for beginners and players with slower arm speeds seeking a putter for controlled approaches, accurate putting, and even some finesse flick shots. The variety of plastics allows you to find the perfect balance of grip, stability, and feel to suit your putting style and course conditions.
