MVP Glitch Review: A High-Glide Putter for Practice and Play

The MVP Glitch blurs the line between a disc golf putter and a backyard catch disc. Its flight numbers - 1/7/0/0 - are unusual for a PDGA-approved disc: a putter-slow Speed 1 paired with a Glide rating of 7, the highest MVP has ever put on a disc. That combination makes it float much longer than a typical putter, while the neutral turn and fade keep it flying dead straight.

This review covers who actually gets the most out of the Glitch, how it flies and feels in the hand, and where it fits alongside a normal putter in your bag.

Who Should Throw the MVP Glitch?

The Glitch is deliberately built to be easy - its Speed 1 rating and neutral flight numbers mean there's almost no wrong way to throw it. That makes it as much a practice and warm-up tool as it is a course disc.

• Beginners: An excellent first putter. The huge glide keeps the disc aloft during a session of putting practice, and the neutral flight means it won't drift off-line while a new player is still developing form.
• Intermediate/advanced players: Useful as a warm-up disc before a round, a backyard catch disc for casual throwing with friends and kids, and occasionally as a glide-heavy short approach option.
• Anyone looking for a non-intimidating disc to introduce someone new to the sport: The Glitch's putter diameter and forgiving flight make it a good "first throw" disc for people who have never played.

How the MVP Glitch Flies

With a 1/7/0/0 rating, the Glitch launches slowly and simply glides - there's no turn to fight and no fade to plan around, so the disc goes wherever it's aimed and stays there longer than almost any other putter on the market. That Glide 7 rating is the highest in MVP's lineup, and it's immediately noticeable in the hand and in the air.

On short putts and approaches, this translates to a disc that floats gently into the basket rather than diving in on a steep angle - useful for reading exactly how far a putt will carry. For longer practice throws or casual catch, the extended glide means the disc travels further than its low speed would suggest, without needing much power behind the throw.

MVP Glitch Plastic Types Compared

• Neutron Soft: A softer, grippier version of Neutron plastic specifically marketed for catch play - built to be comfortable to grab out of the air. The standard recommendation if you plan to use the Glitch for casual throwing as much as course play.
• Neutron: MVP's standard premium blend. Durable with a good grip, flies the same as Neutron Soft but with a firmer feel.
• Eclipse: A glow-in-the-dark plastic option, useful for evening rounds or twilight putting practice.

Recommendation: Neutron Soft is the best all-around choice - it holds up fine for course play while being comfortable enough for backyard catch sessions, which is really the Glitch's core appeal.

Similar Discs to Consider

• MVP Ion - A more traditional MVP putter with a beaded rim and a touch of overstability, if you want a putter that holds a line in the wind rather than maximizing glide.
• Dynamic Discs Judge - A classic neutral putter for course play if you want something more standard for circle-1 putting.
• Axiom Envy - If you want a slightly overstable putt-and-approach disc instead of the Glitch's fully neutral flight.
