James Proctor finished the 2024 season 1st in Circle 2 putting in MPO. Out of 344 Circle 2 attempts, Proctor made 133 of them, that’s an insane 38.66% make rate! Stats from Statmando.
Imagine making more than every third putt from C2…. That’s almost double my C1X make rate… Am I right?! đ
If I’m not mistaken, James Proctor is using Infinite Discs Glow P-Blend Alpaca putters as his GO-TO putting puttes.
Ohn Scoggins is the 2024 Season Stat Leader in Circle 2 Putting in the FPO division with an astonishing 27.92% make rate! She had a total of 394 attempts from Circle 2, made 110 of them. Via Statmando.

Hundreds of Estonian disc golfers played at the Unibet Arena!
Unibet Arena, formerly known as Saku Suurhall, is one of the largest indoor arenas in Estonia!
There were a total of 51 unique putting holes, ranging from wide-open 15-20 footers, downhill anhyzers, uphill and severe hyzer putts, and turbo putting to 33+ foot forehand rollers, OB island holes, and much more!
We played two rounds, and all of the holes were played as putting holes with four putters. This meant you had to throw approximately 400 putts, with all the holes being PAR 3.
Scoring: If you make all four putts, you get a 1 (ace). Make three, and you get a birdie (2). Make two = par (3). Make one = bogey (4). Miss all = double bogey (5) as your hole score.

Next X-series event in Estonia will take place on 18th January 2025 – https://discgolfmetrix.com/3173926
