Hi.
I'm hoping some of you can help me out with some questions I have about throwing my midrange discs.
When throwing a midrange disc for a short drive or approach shot, should I use the same 4-finger power grip I use for drives? Should I put an index finger on the rim (is this ever appropriate)? Fan out my fingers underneath?
Are the throwing mechanics for short drives and approach shots the same as for drives? When I drive off the tee I turn my head backwards and look at my disc during reach-back. Should my head turn back for shorter shots too? Should I keep my eyes focused on the target the whole time? It feels awkward not to look back and when I look forward the whole time, it feels like I don't know what my throwing arm is doing and I end up releasing early often and hit a tree on the left. If I try to correct, I hit the first tree on the right.
I'm having trouble aiming 100-200 foot shots throw tight holes. Any suggestions?
Thanks for any help.
