Blowfly II | Disc Golf Association · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The DGA "Blowfly II" serves as a specialty putter for approach shots in challenging terrain. With a speed of 2 and fade of 2, it fills a clear niche: landing on slopes and hills where traditional putters would roll away after impact. The flexible signature plastic material cushions ground contact, stopping the disc where it lands. It’s not suited for drives over 60 meters—its role lies in controlled approaches to elevated or downhill baskets. In flight, the disc exhibits a stable trajectory with 0 turn, avoiding unwanted rotation. Moderate fade reliably pulls it left at the end without gaining extra distance. The low glide of 2 keeps the flight phase short and predictable. On straight lines at mid-range distances, it follows the throwing direction precisely—as long as arm speed remains low. Excessive power destabilizes the flexible construction, so smooth throws with controlled force yield the best results. For hyzer approaches on hills or in dense rough, the "Blowfly II" offers a clear advantage: it stays put after landing instead of rolling downhill or bouncing through undergrowth. On flat courses with standard conditions, other putters provide more versatility. Beginners benefit from its forgiveness on short approaches, while experienced players use it strategically for tricky situations. The low-profile rim and soft feel require some adjustment—those accustomed to classic, firm putters should test its flight characteristics first. As a bag complement, it covers scenarios where stopping matters more than distance.
