NAW Putter is a disc golf practice app, that allows its users to track their skills, play putting games, and train their putting skills. Built by a disc golfer for disc golfers, this app makes your necessary putting practice, just a little more fun and hopefully a little more productive. By tracking your stats, the app will let you know what your weak areas are, whether they're a specific distance, stance, or simply a lack of motivation, NAW putter will give you the information to succeed on the putting green. By providing several practice games, you can mix up your putting practice time, to hopefully make it slightly more fun. These games address areas of your game you may otherwise not practice. Some games will challenge you to use different grips and stances (of varying usefulness), Others will challenge you to get further and further away, some will be a challenge against the clock, and some will require consistency above all else. Don't want to play our games? Rather set up your own distance and simply put in the work? Use our practice screen, where you can determine the distance, input your made shots, and we'll keep track of your stats. Want to see if you're improving? Or would you like to attempt to beat your personal record for one of our games? Simply head over to the Records section to check all of your stats.
