Auto Leveling Putter?!? | EV-7 Penrose Review
Discover whether the EV-7 Penrose Auto Leveling Putter lives up to its promise in this in-depth review. The reviewer discusses their experience with the new putter, exploring its base plastic material and comparing it to other popular options like Prodigy. They highlight the unique characteristics of the EV-7 design, including a similar feel to Prodigy-style plastics and an understable profile that sets it apart from more stable models. With expertise informed by their knowledge of Prodigy's founding team members, the reviewer delves into the putter's flight dynamics, discussing expected high-speed straight flights with an initial understable bend. They also examine the putter's grip and overall feel, likening it to a modified PA-3. As they test the EV-7 Penrose in various throws, including forehands, they provide insight into its performance and potential as a replacement for their existing PA-3s.

what is good foundation nation um here today doing a disc review of the new ev7 pinrose i have it here in the base plastic the og base they also have an og firm and an og soft i'm gonna talk about the plastic a little bit first before we get into the throws or anything the og base has a little bit of gummy gumminess to it not a ton to be honest with you it kind of feels like a gateway plastic to a certain degree has that like eraser type feel to it um also has a similar feel to prodigy like 200 or 300 plastic uh if you kind of mix those two if you took like a gateway plastic kind of that tackiness and mixed it with a prodigy like 300 i think that's kind of what you would get here if we take a closer look at the kind of rim of the disc it looks very similar to kind of like a p model s or p model us uh it also kind of has a similar edge here that you see on a pa3 it's a very prodigy-esque putter i believe that's because the owner and founder of ev7 used to be one of the founders of prodigy so you can kind of see a lot of those characteristics one thing i'm very interested to see here is it looks like the shoulder of this model is kind of a more understable putter whereas the bottom here models are more overstable putter so what i'm expecting to see is once we get to throw it a little bit expecting some high speed just very straight maybe even a little understable high speed and then a very solid finish because of this it also does have a small bead that goes around the rim in the hand it feels great kind of feels like a modified pa-3 i think this could fit really well in my bag i throw in pot with pa3s a lot and i think they can kind of fit in there offer a little bit different feel and possibly a different flight but we're going to go ahead and start off throwing it we're going to start at about 100 feet throw it a few times put it on a few different angles back up to 200 feet and...
