Latitude 64 Caltrop Flight Chart
The Latitude 64 Caltrop is a deeply overstable putt-and-approach disc built for players who demand precision and minimal glide. With flight numbers of 4 | 2 | 0 | 3, the Caltrop delivers a unique combination of control, torque resistance, and a reliable dumping fade. Its large thumb-track top and flat profile make it a favorite for short drives and approaches that must sit quickly without drifting past the target. While discontinued, it remains highly valued by players who prefer predictable, wind-resistant stability.
How the Caltrop Flies for Beginner Players
Newer players will find the Caltrop to be quite overstable, especially due to its limited glide. Expect short flights that fade early and reliably. Beginners who need a disc that won’t sail long or turn over in the wind may appreciate its predictability, but most will find it more functional as an approach disc than a putting putter.
Caltrop Flight Path Insights for Intermediate Throwers
Intermediate players can unlock the Caltrop’s value as a point-and-shoot approach tool. It handles moderate power without turning, making it ideal for controlled hyzers, forehand touch shots, and short drives in tight fairways. Its wind resistance and quick-landing nature make it especially useful in mixed-condition rounds.
Advanced and Professional Player Flight Numbers Breakdown
Skilled throwers will appreciate the Caltrop for its torque resistance and consistency. Thrown flat, it holds straight briefly before producing a strong, early, predictable fade. Players with powerful backhands and forehands use it as a dependable upshot workhorse, particularly inside 200 feet where accuracy is essential. Many pros historically cycled Zero Hard/Medium plastics for varying levels of straightness.
Forehand Flight Characteristics and Short-Range Control
The thumb-track design gives forehand dominant players excellent grip and angle control. The Caltrop handles off-axis torque well, making it perfect for touchy flick approaches that must finish reliably left (RHFH) or sit on landing. Most forehand reviews praise its ability to resist flutter and its clean, consistent release.

DG Puttheads Notes
The Caltrop has a cult following thanks to its extremely predictable, low-glide flight and pronounced thumb-track. While unusual in the hand, it remains one of the most consistent wind-resistant approach discs ever produced. If you enjoy discs like the Rhyno, Berg, or Entropy—but want something with a touch more fade—the Caltrop stands out as a unique option.
