The Blowfly II is a flexible DGA putt-and-approach disc, rated 2/2/0/2. Its modest glide and finishing fade give it a role on short approaches where the player wants to limit carry. A golfer accustomed to a stiff putter may need time to find a comfortable release with its softer construction. DGA describes a rubber blend and promotes the material for reduced ground movement. The practical attraction is the different feel and intended landing behavior, rather than assuming that flexibility removes the need to plan the approach. The PDGA approved the Blowfly II on 21 December 2008.

Try Discs adds up reviews from six disc golf stores, so you see what players think across stores, not just at one shop. Reviews are great for spotting proven, popular discs. Take the details with a grain of salt, though: runs, plastics and skill level all change how a disc flies, so your experience may vary.
