![]() This caused us to feel like we weren’t getting that great “finger pop” and a strong release on the Nova. As we stated before, the Nova does feel a little deep in the hand. Now, this might be a personal preference among the golfers we had around that day. When we moved to the circle, we weren’t quite loving the Nova as much. Because of the little fade, we always felt in control of where the Nova was heading. Have a short hole with a tight window? The Nova was virtually point-and-shoot straight.Īs an approach disc, we could either go right at the basket, or give it a nice little sweeping hyzer towards the basket. Where we really got attention from others was when we threw it flat and straight. It would track to the right just a little bit before fading back flat to the center with a very straight flight. The Nova was also able to hold a very nice anhyzer line throughout the flight as well. If we gave it some hyzer on release, it would flip up just a little bit, but never completely flat, and then hold that angle all the way to the ground. This really allowed us to throw the Nova on many different lines and see if hold that flight throughout. We did notice a little bit of high speed turn, but it was marginal.Īt the end of the flight, the Nova’s fade was quite small. While the Nova doesn’t have quite the stability of a Big-Bead Aviar, it is quite close. In our minds, the Nova really shined as a driving and approach putter. We used the Nova as a driver, approach putter, and as a putting putter inside the circle. We felt like we had a great grip and as if we could really put the Nova on our intended line without worrying about the disc slipping out of our hand. We felt as if the deeper feel actually gave us a little more control when driving with the the Nova. While the Nova does have an Aviar-like feel, it does feel a little deeper in the hand. ![]() The Nova does have the same “compass points” on the bottom of the disc that the Atlas has. Both were 175g and felt identical to each other. We picked up a few of the Nova’s to test out on the course. With the Nova, golfers get the best of both worlds and suns. ![]() The Nova is a new Aviar like overmold that has all of the high speed stability of a Big-Bead Aviar along with the least low-speed fade of our Aviar type putters. The flight plate is made of a firm Pro while the rim is molded in a softer, grippier Pro. While still featuring the overmold, the Nova was released in two versions of Pro plastic. ![]() A few weeks ago, the Innova Nova was released as a fundraiser disc for the 2014 Japan Open. After seeing what the Atlas could do on the course, we were anxious to see what a putter would be like with Innova’s overmold feature. When we first learned about the Innova Atlas, we also heard about an upcoming putter. ![]()
