The White Widow is a putt and approach disc rated 3/5/-1/0. A single point of turn, 5 glide and no fade suggest a floaty putter flight that leans gently right for a right-hand backhand, with no rated fade to pull it back left. It is not the putter for a dependable left hook. It closed out the six-mold batch the PDGA approved for Fly High Discs on 6 February 2015, and the certification record puts its linear dimensions close to the AK-47's: the same 21 cm diameter and 1 cm rim, a hair shorter at 2.1 cm, with the ratings splitting the pair into this floatier, less overstable half. TryDiscs lists it in Sticky Icky, and every Fly High row here is marked out of production.
