The U.S. Capitol is a putt and approach disc rated 3/4/0/1. Its slow speed, moderate glide and light fade suggest a straight flight with a gentle finish for a right-hand backhand. Its ratings suggest it is less suited to players seeking a strong fade on approaches. HIAARO, a sporting goods company based in Qingdao, China, sells the U.S. Capitol as the putter in its U.S. Landmark Series starter set of two drivers, two midranges, two putters and a mini marker, in 150 Class weights of 145 to 150 grams. HIAARO calls it a low-profile throwing putter with a straight flight. HIAARO says the set is made from its MicroBubble plastic, which it describes as moderately stiff with a comfortable grip and which TryDiscs does not yet record. The PDGA approved it on 5 June 2023 (23-161). TryDiscs does not yet record a plastic row for it as of September 2026.
