The PowerDrive Gumbputt is a putt and approach disc rated 2/2/0/2. Slow, low-glide numbers with a 2 fade suggest a short, stable putter flight that settles quickly, built for the green rather than the fairway. Its paper trail runs to one of the oldest certifications in this database: the PDGA record carries two DGA approvals from 1 January 1986, one printed Gumbputt and one printed Power Drive as two words, and this row's recorded dimensions match the Power Drive entry, while the separate Blunt Gumbputt row on this site matches the bare Gumbputt one. DGA, established in 1976 by Ed Headrick, whom its own site calls the Father of Disc Golf, sells only the Blunt version in its store as of August 2026, describing that listing as a rubber-made disc rather than traditional plastic. No listing for the PowerDrive version was live in the sources traced for this page as of August 2026. TryDiscs lists it in Signature.

The DGA PowerDrive Gumbputt has only 1 review so far, so one opinion can swing the picture. That's why there's no star average yet.

Try Discs adds up reviews from six disc golf stores, so you see what players think across stores, not just at one shop. Reviews are great for spotting proven, popular discs. Take the details with a grain of salt, though: runs, plastics and skill level all change how a disc flies, so your experience may vary.
