Prickly Pear: Lone Star Disc’s stable putt & approach

The Lone Star Discs Prickly Pear is a big bead putter designed for controlled approaches and dependable performance in slightly windy conditions. Featuring flight numbers 3, 3, -1, 1, the Prickly Pear offers a straight-to-stable flight path with a subtle turn and a gentle fade, making it a versatile tool for putts, approaches, and short drives.

Approved by the PDGA on November 11, 2024, the Prickly Pear meets professional standards and delivers reliable performance for players of all skill levels. Its thoughtful design, including a low profile and comfortable rim depth of 1.3cm, ensures a secure grip and smooth releases, making it a trusted choice for backhand throws and precise landings.

Built to perform under demanding conditions, the Prickly Pear excels as a reliable option for controlled upshots and confident putts, delivering versatility and consistency on every throw.
