GStar Aviar P&A Factory Second

I love the gstar grip on a heavy putter. It feels so much better for a firm shot than both DX or regular star. I will continue to use gstar for my putters in the future! (Posted on 1/18/2017)

This is hands down the best putter in my opinion. It's high glide rating helps me nail all sorts of putts from pretty good range. I bought this to replace my rhino and I'm not disappointed. (Posted on 1/31/2016)

First off I am a brand new Disc Golf player, so if you are advanced you can go ahead and skip reading my review. I am also including info on Factory Seconds in general as well.


-Quality-

Let me answer some questions about these factory seconds. I had no clue what they would look like, I was thinking there would be misprints and all sorts of funky looking discs. What you actually get is just like the picture. I was thinking the pictures for each disc were just the "stock" picture of a factory second. The X marked in pen on the center of each disc was NOT removable with nail polish removal, so that stinks IMO. There is also no names on the top of the disc. On the bottom of each disc it has the weight and abbreviation of the disc under it (G*AV for this Aviar). Of all the disc I ordered half were yellow so I can see it might be hard to tell them apart while in my bag. The imperfections of these F2s are fairly minor such as black specs, small scuff, or flakes along the edge of the disc. You can feel them if you run your finger over them. I am not advanced enough to tell if any of them would effect flight, but I highly doubt it.

-Value and Price-

After doing my research this is a great deal as long as you order 10+ discs. After looking on EBAY, these discs here are "new" and come out cheaper than used disc from them.

-Service-

I ordered 2 of these Aviars and got 2 different colors, would of been nice if I had got to choose the color like I did for some of the other disc in the order. They shipped next day and provided a tracking number, that was nice.

-GStar Aviar P&A-

As I said I am new and only had a cheap D plastic putter before this arrived. You can feel the quality difference while holding this Gstar. I liken it to having a brand new Name Brand golf club or using a PRO V1 golf ball when you were using crap before. It just instills confidence. I just got done throwing it in my backyard and let me tell you my shot % was way up. It is a pin seeker.

The aviar putt and approach is the best disc made in disc golf. It has a great amount of glide with little fade that make it dependable and accurate. People like to buy many so they can beat some up to make them turn over. When it becomes like that, it gets more glide and slow turn overs. But the Gstar model does not stray from what an aviar should be. For me it seemed a slight more stable than a regular aviar, but that allows me to put more speed on it with out it turning over. When I first got it, it was the farthest putter I could throw because of its glide and how long the line it could hold. With the Gstar plastic, it is very durable, so for me it took me 4 months to beat it up and make it a dead strait thrower for me. The grip is great, but some people might not like about it is that it is very flexible. I would compare the feel of it to a Super Soft type of plastic, just with more durability. I personally like it though because it allows my hand to make a custom fit on my hand. If you were to get one putter it should be an aviar, and in this plastic it is durable and flexible for longer life and better feel. (Posted on 7/22/2014)
