Chief OS

4.4(26)
Putt & Approach
The Chief OS is the version of the Chief that Gateway calls overstable, rated 3/3/0/2. It fits short hyzer lines and approaches that need a measured return toward the fading side. A player seeking a putter to drift gently away from that side may find a less stable disc easier for the shot. Gateway recommends the Chief OS for throwing, including forehand drives and approaches. The brand's description emphasizes the finish and distance control near the landing area. The PDGA approved the Chief OS on 6 February 2015. It has its own approval record, separate from the original and retooled Chief. That distinction matters when a seller uses only the shorter Chief name in a listing.

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.
