Putt & Approach

The Mercury is ITC Discs' slow, straight putt-and-approach disc, rated 2/3/-1/0. German retailer Inside the Circle created the ITC line and positions Mercury for putting and controlled approaches. Manufacturing partner Gateway calls it a super-straight putter with almost no movement away from center, while its 1.5 cm rim depth gives it a deep putter profile.

The PDGA approved Mercury on July 24, 2023 under certification 23-192. Gateway manufactures the mold in the United States for ITC. ITC documents four material choices: durable premium Silver; very soft, high-grip Iron Soft; balanced Iron Medium; and hard, long-wearing Iron Firm.
