Caltrop | Latitude 64 · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The Latitude 64 "Caltrop" is an overstable putter with a speed of 2, glide of 2, turn of 0, and fade of 2, designed to combat wind and deliver precise approach shots. Its most distinctive feature is the Thumbtrack—a recessed groove on the top of the rim that provides a defined thumb placement. With its low profile and beadless design, it bridges the gap between classic utility putters and modern approach discs. Available in Zero Hard, Zero Medium, and Zero Soft, it caters to different grip preferences, with Zero Hard offering more stability on throws and Zero Soft providing better ground grip. In flight, the "Caltrop" exhibits a straight, controlled path with reliable fade at the finish. Its low flight numbers create a flat trajectory without unwanted lift, making it ideal for headwinds and technical lines. The fade kicks in predictably, bringing the disc safely back to the left without excessive overfade. Compared to similar discs, it flies slightly longer than a "Harp" but stays more compact than a "Rhyno." The stability allows for powerful throws without turnover risk, while the low glide prevents overshooting the target. For approach shots between 30 and 60 meters, the "Caltrop" delivers dependable performance, especially in windy conditions or when avoiding skips on hard ground. The Thumbtrack divides opinions—those who appreciate the grip aid will find consistent release conditions for putting and approaches. Advanced players use it as a utility putter for forehand approaches or as a midrange alternative on tight fairways. Beginners benefit from its predictability but should have enough arm speed to achieve full fade. As a versatile workhorse putter, it suits players who prioritize control and wind resistance.
