Long Distance Lefty Hook #1 by Ted Bailey
Price: $82 ; Availability: 1 LH

 This long distance lefty hook was made by Ted Bailey for his own use in competition in 1989 out of an expensive composite Aerospace material that was obtained from Doug DuFresne. Works great and is very tunable for adjusting flight range. Twist blades lightly in the direction to add angle of attack and this will reduce the range down to 60 metres. Twist blades the other direction and extend the flight range out beyond 100 metres. Easy to throw, but it does require an adult level of power for a full return.
Span = 37 cm ; Weight = 91 gm ; Range = 60-120 metres ; Age = 18+ ; Power = 8+/10 ; Difficulty = 6/10
