The Wildcat is a discontinued distance driver rated 11/5/-2/3: turn to open the flight and fade to close it, the S-curve recipe of its era. Moderate arms got genuine distance from it in the early 2000s, when 11-speed was the sharp end of the chart.

Flat releases drifted right mid-flight and recovered left, and slower arms could hyzer-flip it for their longest straight lines. Worn copies slid toward rollers, standard for the stability class.

Approved in May 2002 (PDGA cert 02-08), the same certification day as the Predator, it remained in the lineup for years before retirement.

Copies circulate in Pro-D and X Line base plastics plus ESP and Tour Series ESP runs.

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.
