Default putting rules
I have looked through the rule book and couldn't locate anything about if it was ok or not ok to have a disc in your other hand during your putts. I have built a comfort level during putting practice with another disc in my off hand so if anyone as any info on this it would be greatly appreciated

It's fine. Nikko does it (as do many other people) all the time

The putter in your other hand must be within 5 grams of the same weight as the one you are putting with so you can demonstrate balance...

does this only come into play within the circle since you mentioned the demonstration of balance

Just be careful that you don't drop the offhand putter, or it may count as your throw.
I read years ago where a feller practiced putting with 2-3 discs in his offhand.
When it came to tournament play he would hold only one disc, but his putting wasn't very consistent.
I'm pretty sure he always putts with putters in both hands.
