Description
The Discraft CT Swirl Roost putter is a deep, beadless, straight-to-stable putter, molded in CT Swirl plastic. It's built for players who want a putter they can trust on the green, and it's at its best on putts and touch approaches. This listing is the Chris Dickerson release of the Roost. Chris Dickerson is a 2x PDGA Major Champion.
CT Swirl Plastic
CT (Crazy Tough) Swirl is a durable, comfortable blend with a firm feel and vibrant swirls throughout, so every Roost has a one-of-a-kind look.
The Mold
What started as the Ricky Wysocki prototype putter (RW-0325-P) became the Roost, a beadless, deep putt and approach disc built for stability. It's a slow, straight-to-stable putter with a clean release and a dependable finish.
Stability
The Roost is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 2 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

FAQ
Is the Discraft Roost good for beginners?
Yes. The Roost's predictable flight makes it easy to trust as you learn.
Is the Discraft Roost overstable?
Not really. The Roost is stable, rated 2/5/0/2, so it flies straight with a dependable fade rather than the hard hook of an overstable disc.
What's the difference between CT Swirl and ESP plastic?
CT Swirl has a firm, Crazy Tough feel with vibrant swirls. ESP is tackier and more gummy-yet-firm.
Does the Chris Dickerson Roost fly differently than the standard Roost?
No. The Chris Dickerson release uses the same Roost mold and is rated 2/5/0/2, just like the standard Roost. What's different is the stamp and edition, so you get the same flight with a collectible look. Plastic can still change the feel and grip slightly.
What disc is similar to the Discraft Roost?
The Discraft Challenger (2/3/0/2) is a classic stable putter with a firm finish.
How far does the Discraft Roost fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 225 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
