The Thought Space Athletics Aura Praxis is a stable, beadless putter that doubles as a short driver, and Aura is the plastic that put the brand's hand feel on the map. It is a 3 speed putt and approach disc built for accuracy over glide.

Flight Numbers: 3 / 3 / 0 / 1

Aura is firm and grippy, close to Innova's Star plastic but with a flatter top that sits comfortably under the thumb. It beats in at a moderate pace; a season of tree hits and it settles into a slightly flippier, dead straight flight than a fresh one. New players sometimes see a tree turn it a bit more overstable than expected, so I would not baby it, just let it wear naturally.

Thrown flat it pushes right for a while before settling into a straight line with a gentle finish, which makes it dependable inside 250 feet and still useful for a straight approach out to 290 or so. On the green it is a solid putter for anything outside circle one, holding its line rather than skating past the basket. It suits beginners learning what a clean release looks like and intermediate players who want one disc for drives, upshots, and putts.
