War Pigeon
The "War Pigeon" by Premier Discs is an overstable putter with a speed of 2, glide of 3, turn of 0, and fade of 3, making it effective both inside the circle and on approach shots up to 60 meters. The pronounced fade ensures reliable landings in headwinds and on hyzer lines, while the moderate glide allows for controlled flight phases without unexpected float effects. Premier offers this disc in Alpha plastic, known for its grippy surface and durability. The bead on the inner rim enhances grip and promotes a clean release on throws. In flight, the War Pigeon resists turn—even with strong arm speed, it remains stable on the chosen hyzer angle. The fade kicks in early and noticeably, enabling precise approaches to the basket with predictable fade. On flat releases, the disc holds a straight line briefly before the fade takes over and reliably pulls it left. This flight characteristic makes it a solid alternative for players seeking an even stronger fade than overstable putters like the Zone or Tactic. Wind has minimal impact on its flight path, providing confidence in exposed approach situations. For advanced players, the War Pigeon serves as a utility putter for forced hyzers and spike approaches where a quick landing is needed. Intermediate throwers appreciate its predictability on short distances, using it as a stable counterpart to understable putters in their bag. The combination of strong fade and moderate glide allows for precise shots through tight gaps without uncontrolled rightward drift. As a putting option, the War Pigeon suits players who prefer a hyzer putt and value the bead grip—for push putts with a flat release, straighter alternatives may be more suitable.
