this is all compared to 10x's. they are domier, alittle grippier and softer. they have more glide as well. I have yet to throw them extensively, but I like these much more than the 11x's and 0x's. these are a cheap and easy replacement to 10x's, but still not as sweet.

I LOVE EM!!!

They have that extra glide for those longer putts....

Nothing compares to the 10x.

I hate the one i tried...flippy off the tee and bouncey off the chains...not to mention it doesn't feel good/the same in my hand...I have putted and approached with an 11x for the last 2 years, now I have to stock up on 11x's...

Anyone getting rid of 11x let me know.

I didnt like the 12X too much. I really like the 11x though.

I heard they feel like the pro line plastic aviars.

They are shaped and fly very similar to the "first run" pro line aviars...but obviously harder/stiffer.

Got to check them out yesterday. They were quite domey. I didn't really care for them at all.

I bought one yesterday and spent a while field throwing them and putting, and I didnt like them. They were too flippy and too dependent on air time.

Like A LOT of others, I liked the 11x aviars. Thought I couldnt live without them. But I hate the new 12x. The fact that everytime some Climo guy wins a world title I have to learn a new putter hacked me off! My solution was to... dare I say it, switch to challengers. :eek: And to my surprise I like them much better! They are a little more consistant. Just a thought to those out there trying to stock up on 11x. The challenger mold wont change, one less thing to worry about. Give them a try, you might like them.

Challengers are definitely a nice putter, but I really hate that its beadless. And you cant get much of a drive with it. When you try to do a drive/mid shot it gets flippy. But if you need that 30 ft. par then the Challenger is def. a good putter. I just prefer big bead putters, except the 12X KC Aviar.

flipping putters when throwing them is a mechanics problem... not a disc problem. I can throw classics without flipping them.
Haven't tried a 12x though. how do they compare to the run made between 11 and 12x that had just the Pro stamp??

Then how come I was able to throw my Aviar-X's without them flipping over? I use the same technique when driving with putters.

I was thinking of trying the 12x today but the store only had 11x and no time stamps so I tried the no time. I didn't throw it much because I didn't want to lose it in the snow but it is so much nicer than the 11x I had been throwing. Everyone is saying the 12x is too domey so hopefully what I have now will last until they make a less domey 12x.
