What if your putter actually wanted to grip the chains? That's the idea behind Project ChainGrip. Latitude 64°'s most experimental putter plastic to date.
Two plastics, one disc
ChainGrip isn't a single material. It's a fusion of two different plastics, each placed with purpose. The core and the inside of the rim is made from familiar Zero Hard — the reliable, stiff foundation players already know and trust. The outer rim, however, is something else entirely. It features the grippiest plastic we have ever put on a disc, giving ChainGrip its name.
The best of two worlds
The design vision was clear from the start: create a putter that wants to grab chains, while still giving the player a controlled, consistent release. Stiffness and grip don't always play well together, and the team had real concerns going in. Would the grip be so aggressive that discs start releasing late, stuck to the hand a fraction too long?
Early testing has answered that question encouragingly. Players have responded positively to both the feel of the grip and the disc's ability to release cleanly.
A hypothesis
We do not know if this will be the game-changer we envisioned, but we're determined to find out. Project ChainGrip is assembling a dedicated test team with a specific mission: record data from 10,000 putts with ChainGrip Pure putters, compared against 10,000 putts with a regular plastic Pure. It's a rigorous, statistical approach to answering an important question: does it actually putt better?
How to get your hands on it
On June 25th, we released a limited run of Project ChainGrip exclusively through Latitude64.com, giving the broader community an early chance to feel the plastic and share feedback.
You can still check out the prototype release here: Project ChainGrip Pure - Prototype.
A full retail release is expected later this summer.
If you picked up one of the prototype discs, don't hesitate to leave a review. The team wants to hear what you think.
Best Regards,
