Rubber Putter | Lightning Discs · Discgolf-Dorado.com

The "Rubber Putter" from Lightning Discs is a versatile putter with a speed of 2, glide of 3, turn of -1, and fade of 1. Its stable flight characteristics make it suitable for both putting and controlled approach shots. The bead on the inner rim ensures a defined grip contact during release. The material floats on water and is available in bright glow versions—ideal for late rounds or water hazards. Approved by the PDGA since 1994, it delivers proven flight performance in an often-underrated category. In flight, the disc exhibits balanced behavior with moderate glide and a slight tendency to turn, developing into a gentle right curve on clean releases. The fade of 1 brings the disc back predictably without abrupt dumping. On straight putting lines, it holds direction reliably, while on approach shots, it allows for controlled turnovers with light anhyzer. Stability remains consistent across different arm speeds—an advantage for repeatable results inside the circle. For beginners, the "Rubber Putter" provides an accessible introduction to putting and early approach attempts. The flight ratings forgive minor release errors, while the bead offers grip orientation. Advanced players use it strategically for precise approaches under 50 meters or as a reliable option in the wind. It performs equally well for backhand and forehand throws, with forehand benefiting from its stable flight at shallow angles. Hyzer shots land cleanly with a short fade, while anhyzer lines turn smoothly without excessive drift. The glow material extends playtime, and its buoyancy minimizes loss risks—practical features for regular players facing varied conditions.
