The Touch is a putt and approach disc rated 2/3/0/1. Zero turn and a single point of fade suggest a straight putter flight with a gentle left lean at the end for a right-hand backhand, not a profile for forcing hard fades. Its PDGA approval, recorded in the export as 20 July 2014, is the last certification for Salient Discs, and it carries a twist its own announcement on the PDGA site shows: the mold was originally approved under the name Cure. The release copy Salient supplied called it a slightly overstable putter that should handle wind well, ideal for controlled approaches, and listed a wider set of plastic lines than our plastics data records for it. TryDiscs records Karbon and Liquid runs of the mold, both marked discontinued.

Reviews

4 reviews from 1 store

The Salient Touch has only 4 reviews so far, so one opinion can swing the picture. That's why there's no star average yet.

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.
