    This is a putter that I found to be decent, but not quite what I was looking for. The profile is nice and low, and the plastic feels great, but the rim is quite rounded, like a latitude 64 keystone or prodigy pa4. The issue I have with that is that I can't quite dial in the accuracy putting with discs like that. They have a funny way of gliding and dropping that is hard to predict. On a positive note this putter is great for short putts. I almost never miss with it. But anything outside of 25 feet was below average for my putting

    Enter the cheaper, more understable version of the Luna: The Roach! While this putter can work for a throwing putter option (especially in premium plastics or on turnover shots in baseline),  I literally CANNOT putt with anything else like I can with a Roach. Whether it is 10 ft or 100 ft, no putter has made me feel more accurate or confident with my putt. For context, since using the Roach, I am roughly sitting at about 80 to 85% putting from 25-30ft.

    Now, this comes with a catch. While the Roach is slightly overstable on its finish when you first get them, they are VERY touchy on angles the more you beat them in. This is also really a putter for those with a spin putt style because it is so effortless to get rotations on this disc with so little effort that it is quite easy to take advantage of the tremendous glide on it. Make sure to give just a touch more hyzer the farther away from the basket you try to putt from and the more power you put into it. This putter is also a bit more shallow compared to putters with similar flight ratings (Innova Aviar, EV-7 Phi, Birdie Marvel, etc.) so if that is your thing, go for this putter and don't look back!

    Bro-D Roach

    This disc is a mainstay in my bag. Very neutral disc that stays on the line you put it on with a slight fade. I highly recommend this to players of all skill levels. Great for flip to flat shots that will parachute to the ground and rest once you've learned to control it.
