The Chimp is a putt and approach disc rated 3/3/0/1. Zero turn and a single point of fade suggest a mostly straight putter flight with a soft left lean at the end for a right-hand backhand. It is not the putter for forcing hard fades. Gorilla Disc Golf calls it its first putter: big-beaded and low-profile, pitched in its listing as a bomber's choice for approach putting, with the bead field on this page agreeing with the big-bead call. The listing offers the same figures carried here as a projected range rather than a settled rating, in the brand's words. The PDGA approved it on 8 July 2024, the fifth certification for the Texas brand's primate-named lineup. TryDiscs records Primal Hard and Primal Soft runs of the mold.
