by
Prodigy Disc
SKU: DG-PDG-300US-A5 (REF2870-1)
Description
The Prodigy 300 Ultra Soft A5 putter is a slightly overstable approach disc that works into a straight flyer, molded in 300 Ultra Soft plastic. It's built for players who want a predictable, reliable flight, and it's at its best on sidearm approaches. If you're shopping for a dependable A5 for your bag, this 300 Ultra Soft run is a great place to start.
300 Ultra Soft Plastic
300 Ultra Soft pushes Prodigy's baseline 300 blend to the limits: it's some of the softest, grippiest plastic on the market, with well over 50% more flex in the hand.
The Mold
The A5 is a slightly overstable approach disc that works in to become a straight flyer. Its smooth feel, shallow profile, and flat top make it ideal for sidearm approaches, it handles torque well, and its mild finish keeps it from skipping far from where it lands.
Stability
The A5 is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 4 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 3 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |
