Animal Info
The wolverine has been described as the fiercest creature on earth and a fearless aggressive fighter that will drive bears away from their kills. Very powerful, muscular and territorial animals the Wolverine resembles a small bear and is the largest land dweller in the weasel family. Found in wilderness areas, forests and mountains of Northern Canada, it prefers to be far away from people. Roughly the size of a medium dog it has a very unpleasant odor and is also referred to as a “skunk-bear”.
Wolverines primarily eat already dead animals however they do hunt and kill deer, mountain goats and other large mammals. They can tear off meat from prey that has been frozen solid and can also crush bones, which enables the wolverine to extract marrow. During winter months it uses it’s large feet as snowshoes, allowing it to walk on top of the snow.
Flight Rating Descriptions
SPEED Speed is the ability of the disc to cut through the air. Speed Ratings are listed from 1 to 14. Discs with high numbers are faster. Faster discs go farther into the wind with less effort. Slower discs take more power
to throw, but have less of a chance
to fly past the basket.
GLIDE Glide describes the discs ability to maintain loft during flight. Discs with more glide are best for new players, and for producing maximum distance (especially downwind). Glide is rated from 1 to 7. Beginners looking for more distance should choose discs with more glide.
TURN High Speed Turn is the tendency of a disc to turn over or bank to the right (for righthand backhand throws) during the initial part of the flight. A disc with a +1 rating is most resistant to turning over, while a -5 rating will turn the most. Discs rated -2 to -5 make good roller discs.
FADE Low Speed Fade is the discs tendency to hook left (for righthand backhand throws) at the end of the flight. Fade is rated from 0 to 5. A disc rated 0 will finish straightest, while a disc rated 5 will hook hard at the end of the flight. Discs with a high fade rating are predicable even in wind.
