SKU: DG-INV-DX-Wol (REF836 *AST**7)
Description
The Innova DX Wolf midrange is a Thumtrac midrange for turnovers and rollers, molded in DX plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on narrow fairways, turnovers, and rollers. If you're shopping for a dependable Wolf for your bag, this DX run is a great place to start.
DX Plastic
DX is Innova's value plastic, offered in the widest selection of models and weights. It provides excellent grip in a variety of weather, and it wears in with use, gradually taking on new flight characteristics. Many top pros carry several DX discs of their favorite models for different flight patterns.
The Mold
The Wolf has a Thumtrac for great grip and reliability. It's great for threading narrow fairways and turnover shots, and it's an excellent roller disc.
Stability
The Wolf is understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 4 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 3 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | -4 | Lots of turn to the right (RHBH), built for rollers and big turnovers. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |

FAQ
Is the Innova Wolf good for beginners?
