Disc Review: MVP Glitch (2025 Edition)
Share
Is This the Best Catch-and-Putt Disc Ever Made?
In a sport constantly evolving with faster, grippier, more stable discs, sometimes a simple, controllable putter becomes the most exciting disc in your bag. Enter the MVP Glitch—a hybrid between an ultra-light catch disc and a straight-flying putter. Originally released as a niche option for warming up or playing catch, the Glitch has exploded in popularity thanks to its versatility, glide, and sheer fun factor. But is it just a gimmick, or is the hype justified?
Here’s our full hands-on review after 30+ rounds of fieldwork and on-course testing in 2025.

Plastic: Neutron Soft (exclusive to Glitch mold)
The Glitch feels like no other disc in your bag. It’s wide, extremely lightweight, and tacky with just the right blend of grip and flexibility. It resembles a catch disc more than a traditional putter, but in the hand, it feels natural—especially for fan grippers and players who prefer a shallow rim.
The Neutron Soft plastic is arguably the best touch plastic MVP has ever released. It holds torque surprisingly well considering the weight, and while the disc is ultra-soft, it still maintains shape after trees and ground hits.
In the Field: Glide Like No Other
The first thing you’ll notice about the Glitch is how effortlessly it stays in the air. Even a light flick will send it floating 150 feet or more. Unlike most discs that require arm speed or spin to maintain flight, the Glitch just goes—especially in tailwind conditions or flat calm.
Its stability is dead straight out of the box. There's no fade, no turn, no angle correction—it holds the line you put it on. Nose up? It floats. Nose down? It gently glides to the ground. It’s a perfect form-check disc, revealing any flaws in your release without punishing you with massive deviation.
On the Course: More Than Just a Catch Disc
Initially seen as a warm-up tool, the Glitch has earned its place in competitive bags. Here’s where it shines:
-
Approach shots inside 200 feet: Toss it on a flat line, and it will hold that line longer than a traditional putter.
-
Touchy hyzer-flip drives: Ideal for wooded gaps and uphill floaters.
-
Jump putts or long bids: If you give it just enough spin, it drifts straight with no deviation.
-
Windless putting: Surprisingly effective inside the circle in calm weather due to its gentle flight and high glide.
That said, it’s not ideal in windy conditions or on hyzer approaches that require a strong finish. It will turn if overpowered, and headwinds can exaggerate its floaty characteristics. It’s a finesse disc through and through.
Who It's For
The Glitch is best suited for:
-
Beginners looking for easy glide and a forgiving flight
-
Players working on clean form and release angle
-
Fans of catch disc mechanics
-
Tournament players seeking a dedicated approach disc with touch
-
Forehand players who need a neutral approach option without wobble
It’s not ideal for those who prefer stiff, overstable putters or who routinely play in windy open environments.
Final Verdict
The MVP Glitch is a modern classic—one of the few discs that’s equally at home in a practice round, casual game of catch, or tournament setting. In 2025, it’s not just a novelty—it’s a genuine tool for finesse players, woods golf, and touch-focused putting. Whether you’re building a form, warming up, or trying to ace a 175-foot touch shot, the Glitch earns its spot.
