Gateway Chief Flight Chart
The Gateway Chief is a beadless, low-profile putt and approach disc designed for players who want a clean release and predictable control. With flight numbers of 3 | 3 | 0 | 1, the Chief flies straight with a gentle fade, making it a favorite for both putting and short approach drives. Commonly seen in Sure Grip, Diamond, Platinum, and Organic Sure Grip plastics, it offers a range of grip and durability options for all throwing styles.
Beginner Flight Path
New players will appreciate the Chief’s straight, forgiving flight. It holds the release angle well and finishes gently without dumping, making it ideal for learning flat putts and controlled upshots inside 200 feet.
Flight Chart Cues for Intermediate Players
Intermediates can rely on the Chief for laser-straight putts and accurate approaches. When thrown flat, it flies true with a soft, predictable finish. Hyzer releases hold the angle, while anhyzers gently pan and settle without rolling over.
Advanced and Professional Flight Paths
Advanced players will find the Chief to be a reliable tool for touch drives and precision landings. It handles moderate torque and excels at shaping lines in tight fairways. The low glide and mild fade make it perfect for point-and-shoot control shots or headwind putts.
Forehand and Utility Shots
The shallow, beadless rim makes the Chief surprisingly comfortable for forehand flicks. It provides smooth, straight flights with dependable fade—great for touch forehand upshots or shaping short technical lines.
