The wolf is an animal that travels a large distance quickly and swiftly. The wolf is, by nature, a pack animal and thrives in that enviroment. Although when needed he can survive on his own.

The grizzly bear inherently a slow and a scavenger, though capeable of running 35mph and taking down an elk solo! Always traveling alone and moving at his own pace just looking for his next meal. As the top predator on the food chain, not much challenges the grizzly for dominace.

The number one thing in nature is food. Beasts have to eat! On that day, when the wolf and the bear come upon the same prey, blood will be shed! The wolf is fast and nimble. He is strong in his own right. The grizzly’s massive paws and unchallenged strength, slow in nature but fast when motivated! Who will win when the fight to eat arrives!

As much as Nick and Casey are totally different athletes, they’re both competitive. Both have spent their time on top of their sports. They’ve both taken a licking and lost hard. Casey is big, strong, agile and probably shouldn’t be upside down. Nick, a litte more bodyweight friendly (compared to a grizzly) and a little more techincal at high level skilled movements. Both athletes have a pretty equal level of conditioning. What bodes better in 17.4? Strength? Speed? Power? Gymnastics?

As much as these buddies want to beat each other, they want nothing more then to see one another excel and do better. They’ll jaw jack and talk smack but it’s all out of love and to make things fun.

Come on out Friday night to see these buddies battle it out for the top score of 17.4!!![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
