Judge

4.8(564)
Putt & Approach
The Judge is Dynamic Discs' beaded putter rated 2/4/0/1. Its mostly straight flight and light finish fit putting, approaches and short drives, especially for players who prefer a bead as a finger-contact point beneath the rim. Dynamic Discs recommends Judge for straight-to-slightly-fading approaches and accurate short tee shots. The bead is a small ridge around the underside of the rim, so it is a tangible grip distinction to try before buying a putting stack. The company's EMAC Judge page identifies a smaller microbead on that relative, giving the full family name a useful feel distinction. The manufacturer identifies Judge's 2013 Player's Choice Disc of the Year recognition. The original mold received PDGA approval on 7 December 2012. EMAC Judge and Supreme versions have their own certification identities, so a used listing deserves a full-name check.

The Dynamic Discs Judge is one of the most-reviewed discs we track.

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.
