The Takapu is an RPM putter with a defined finish, rated 2/3/0/2. It fits straight-to-fading putts and approaches where the landing allows a small curve. A player seeking almost no fade may prefer a more neutral option for that line. RPM describes the Takapu as a stable putt-and-approach disc and links the name to the Australasian gannet. Its slow speed makes putting and controlled short throws the natural task, with softer releases likely to show more of the finish than a firm approach. The PDGA approved Takapu (PA3) on 9 May 2022.

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.
