Available in both the standard firm and the flexible Soft varieties, the Putter Line Roach is a true point-and-shoot tool engineered to find the chains or hold dead-straight approach lines. Featuring a completely beadless rim and a rounded nose profile, it offers a clean, frictionless release on every throw.

The speed 2 rim requires very little power to keep flat, while the high 4 glide rating helps the disc stay aloft on low-ceiling putts and soft upshots. With 0 turn and a subtle 1 fade, the Roach holds whatever line you release it on, resisting hard drops or heavy ground skips at the end of its flight path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSpeed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGlide\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eTurn\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003eFade\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; text-align: left; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Putter Line Roach delivers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVelvety Tactile Grip:\u003c\/strong\u003e The chalky baseline material optimizes finger traction, offering complete confidence in cold, humid, or rainy elements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeadless Release Comfort:\u003c\/strong\u003e A perfectly smooth bottom edge eliminates catching on the index finger for clean, repeatable putting mechanics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent Bag-Cycling Potential:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seasons progressively from routine basket strikes, allowing you to easily build a lineup of dead-straight and understable turnover putters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt excels at:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInside-the-circle putting where a neutral, straight line and high chain-grabbing ability are critical.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTouch approach shots that need to glide straight toward the pin and sit down flat without skipping away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort-range hyzer-flips or touch turnovers down narrow wooded fairways.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Putter Line Advantage: Standard vs. Soft\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscraft’s Putter Line polymer is formulated explicitly for short-game consistency.

If you prefer a stiff disc that pop-releases off your fingers cleanly, go with the standard Putter Line. If you prefer a gummier feel, throw in freezing conditions, or want to minimize ground skips on hard terrain, the Putter Line Soft is the better choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Putter Line Roach durable enough to throw off the tee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a baseline blend, it will pick up cosmetic nicks and scuffs faster than premium plastics like ESP or Z-Line when striking trees. However, many players prefer throwing the Roach in baseline plastic because it glides further at low speeds and seasons beautifully into a premier turnover disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Roach handle wind when putting inside the circle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to its high 4 glide rating and neutral stability, a strong crosswind or headwind can alter its trajectory if exposed to an angle. For moderate winds, a firm, flat release will keep it tracking straight to the chains, but heavy gale-force conditions may require an overstable utility option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Discraft","offers":[{"title":"Putter Line Soft Blue\/Flag 170.5 12","offer_id":49782204530930,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Putter Line Soft Blue\/Flag 171 13","offer_id":49782204563698,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Putter Line Soft Blue\/Silver 171.5 14","offer_id":49782204596466,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Putter Line White\/Flag 173 15","offer_id":49782204629234,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Putter Line Orange\/Flag 173 16","offer_id":49782204662002,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Putter Line Rose\/Iridescent 173 17","offer_id":49782204694770,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0643\/6578\/9426\/files\/discraft-roach-blue-flag-170-5g-12-becd072e.png?v=1783012187","url":"https:\/\/armorydiscgolf.com\/products\/discraft-putter-line-roach","provider":"Armory Disc Golf Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
