The Gopher is a discontinued Innova putt-and-approach disc, approved by the PDGA in 1994. It is a beadless approach disc from Innova's early catalog, long out of production.

As a discontinued mold from the mid-1990s, it survives mainly secondhand. Older runs turn up as a piece of Innova's early putt-and-approach history.
