Challenger SS | Discraft · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Challenger SS" from Discraft serves as a versatile putter for both approach shots and putting. With a speed of 2 and glide of 3, it's ideal for controlled mid-range throws, offering predictable stability that performs reliably both on the fairway and around the circle. Its beadless design sets it apart from the classic Challenger, providing a comfortable grip that excels especially during putting. Compared to the Discraft Roach, it shares similar flight characteristics while positioning itself as the direct successor to the Challenger without a bead. In flight, the disc combines moderate turn with solid fade while remaining highly predictable. The listed turn of -1 is subtle in practice—the disc holds its line steadily without uncontrolled drifting. A fade of 2 ensures a reliable finish, delivering precision, particularly on approach shots. The flight path appears straight with a gentle finish, making it effective for both push putts and approaches from 30 to 50 meters. In Jawbreaker plastic, it offers excellent grip near the basket and reduces unwanted rollaways after landing. For beginners, the Challenger SS provides an accessible entry into putter play, as it forgives mistakes and doesn’t demand excessive arm speed. Advanced players value it as a reliable driving putter for straight lines and controlled anhyzer shots. The disc works well for both backhand and forehand throws, catering to players who prefer a beadless putter. Pro-D and CT Jawbreaker variants expand the selection based on desired durability and grip. As a putting putter, it impresses with consistent flight paths and comfortable feel across various putting styles.
