The P3x is Discmania's overstable wind putter, rated 3/2/0/3: flat, shallow, big-beaded, and built to hold its line through gusts and power that would flip an ordinary putter. It is an approach-first disc that also putts, ideal for players who want the fade to do the aiming.
Discmania pitches it to players who love the P2 but find it too deep: the low profile locks into smaller hands and forehand grips, the big bead adds rigidity and a repeatable release, and the dependable fade shines in exactly the conditions that make touchy putters nervous. It filled the slot of the now-retired beadless P3, same overstable job, very different feel in the hand thanks to the bead.
The P3x joined the lineup in 2017 during the Innova-made era, stayed through the split, and was re-certified for in-house production in November 2023. Trivia with a paper trail: the Innova Factory Store later sold this same mold as the Khan, which became Hailey King's putter, so P3x fans have a cross-brand twin. Its flat top also makes it a natural forehand approach disc.
D-Line offers maximum grip for the green, while S-Line and C-Line firm it up for approach duty and durability. If you want more depth and glide in a straighter putter, the P1x and P2 are the siblings to try; the P3x is the one you trust when the wind is up.

BeadA small ridge under the edge of the rim, mostly on putters. It changes how the disc feels in hand.
It can putt, but the P3x shines as an approach and driving putter thanks to its strong, reliable fade. Many players carry it alongside a straighter putter like the P1x or P2, using the P3x for windy putts and longer approaches where they want a dependable finish.

What is the difference between the P3x and the P2?
The P3x is essentially a beaded, more overstable P2. Both share a flat profile and comfortable feel, but the added bead gives the P3x extra stability and a stronger fade, making it the better choice for headwinds and forehand approaches.
