I use a “walk-though” style putt for shots between 40’ to 80’ (but I am lower intermeidate player). In disc golf, practice makes good enough. If you practice enough, you will become accurate enough with whatever “jump,” “walk-though,” or “funky chicken” putt you choose to use as long as it’s considered legal according to PDGA rules. That is why we have practice rounds to try new theories of disc flight. As a rule, I don’t use a new disc (even if it is a mold that is already in my bag) or new technique in competition unless I feel comfortable with it during practice, which can take a month or more of practice before it is ready for competition.
