Innova
SKU: DG-INV-DX-Bir (REF803 *AST**5)
Description
The Innova DX Birdie putter is Innova's best "go for it" putt and approach disc, molded in DX plastic. It's built for players who want a straight, easy-to-control flight, and it's at its best on go-for-it putts and approaches. If you're shopping for a dependable Birdie for your bag, this DX run is a great place to start.
DX Plastic
DX is Innova's value plastic, offered in the widest selection of models and weights. It provides excellent grip in a variety of weather, and it wears in with use, gradually taking on new flight characteristics. Many top pros carry several DX discs of their favorite models for different flight patterns.
The Mold
The Birdie is a slow, straight flyer with a sure Thumtrac grip, so you can go for the basket without worry. It's also an excellent approach disc.
Stability
The Birdie is neutral. Neutral discs fly straight and true with very little turn or fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with only a slight drift left as it slows down. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with a gentle drift right at the finish. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's an easy choice for beginners and a reliable tool for experienced players.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 1 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 2 | Very little glide, so it drops and stops near its target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 0 | No fade, so it finishes straight. |
