I’m not brand loyal but I don’t throw Disccraft (aside from a buzzz I found). Their rating system means nothing to me compared to the four number system most others use.

Love Wizards I tried a RFF Wizard and it just works for me. I bought four more exact same weight.

I was at a Play It Again today and saw a few Pro Shrykes. I bought one. The weather is terrible so I don’t know when I’ll throw it. I didn’t think Innova made these so I’m curious about them. Can anyone fill me in on how a Pro Shryke flys in comparison to the other plastics. Is Innova making...

What do you look at and where is your head facing when you release? Apologizes if this question has already been asked.

I was curious if the domey champ Shryke had noticeably more glide.

I have a star and Gstar Shryke. I really like them, especially the gstar. I’ve always noticed the champ Shryke has a much taller rounded dome to it, but I’ve never thrown one. How do the champ versions fly in comparison to the others? How does the domey flight plate affect the flight?

So if I’m leading with the head and right shoulder too early I should focus on keeping my midsection relaxed and waiting as long as I can before I start pulling with the upper body. Also keep my head/eyes focused on a point on the ground 90 degrees from the direction of the throw until after...

Is a good mental cue comparing the pull on the disc like pull starting a lawm mower? When I pull the mower rope I don't lead with the head and throw my right shoulder all the way around. And I pull the rope to my right pec. Where should I be looking, head facing during the pull and release?

Questions on timing So I’ve been thinking about this topic lately and really like the diagrams in this thread so I want to revive it. When driving I open my shoulders, leading with the head, from the full reach back position. It feels powerful but it sounds like I’m really missing the...

I believe I know why changing to this grip increases distance for many that try it. I can bend my wrist toward my forearm more when my thumb is closer to the rim of the disc. When I point my thumb more toward the center of the flight plate the tendon going from my forearm to my thumb is already...

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. I really like the comparison to hammer throwers and discus throwers. I was a national champion discus thrower in college and competed in the Olympic Trials many years ago. I was also a 69 meter hammer thrower. I think the closest comparison with dg...

Just picked up this bag. One question about it. If you remove the U channel disc holder there is a flap of cushioning sewen inside the bottom back corner of the bag. Is this flap supposed to be laying on the inside bottom of the bag or up against the back side wall of the bag?

I see on videos players putting by tossing the disc up high then the disc floats down to the basket. Is there a name for that style of putting? I’m interested in learning it.

Thanks all for the recommendations. I think your spot on. I went to the field over lunch and threw clean hyzers with my most understable discs with my old grip. I think I was doing just what you said Slowplatic. I was dropping my elbow and rolling my wrist over in an effort to throw flat. Now...

This is on backhand throws. No wobble at all. This happens when I attempt hyzer and flat releases. Same to slightly less distance.
