For newer players:

In reality, the Pig was not designed for beginners. In fact, it could take a lot of practice before you can really master using it as a putt and approach disc. But that’s just because putt and approach isn’t the most basic skill that beginners learn first when starting out in disc golf.

Using a putt and approach disc is for difficult shots that intermediate and professional players usually know how to get out of. But it also wouldn’t be a bad idea if you invest in the Innova Pig now as part of your disc golf bag because having one will allow you to practice those backhand spikes and sidearm approaches to build your skill as you move up the ranks as a player.

 

For experienced players:

With its straight flight path and excellent fade, intermediate and professional players love using the Pig for putt and approach shots that get them out of trouble. The Pig is also reliable in any weather conditions, and it can retain its flight path no matter what the circumstances are.

It’s excellent to use for making sidearm approaches, backhand spikes, and hyzer shots, and its signature thumtrac rim offers a strong grip for both forehand and backhand throwers to ensure the best flight path every time.

 

Best used for:

The Innova Pig is best used for putt and approach shots. And since it doesn’t have any glide, you can also use it for shots where you need to stay to the ground below your pin.

 

 

Types of plastics:

 

The pig comes in

 

Innova R-Pro Plastic. This is the newer version of the original Pro plastic blend that Innova is known for, and it offers a rubbery but softer feel as compared to other plastic blends.

Right now, the Pig only comes in the R-Pro plastic except during the Bradley Williams Tour Series Stamp when Innova released the pig in Pro Color Glow plastic for a limited time.

 

Final thoughts

The Innova Pig is a great disc to have in every disc golf bag because it’s efficient, durable, and high quality. Being a putt and approach disc, it can deliver difficult approach shots, no matter what type of throw you have or where you’re at with your skill level.

So, if you’re looking for a good putt and approach disc, this is a smart choice. Check out more innova pig reviews here.
