    Grip problems - middle finger knuckle catching disc

    Unfortunately, the power grip tucks the exact problem area into the inside angle of the disc to get ripped out from. I've had some success setting putters deeper into my palm but still too many throws come out like a wounded duck. Getting grip pressure on the leading edge of the disc is a 50/50...

    Grip problems - middle finger knuckle catching disc

    No matter how I trim that nail it flattens where the disc rests against it and the area under and the cuticle to the side gets irritated like crazy. This point seems to always be the last part to release from the disc on all types of my shots. I've moved it all over the plate and have settled on...

    Grip problems - middle finger knuckle catching disc

    Marked to watch this thread - my issue is the area a few cm from the knuckle where the nail meets the cuticle. I can't seem to avoid that point on either BH or FH throws (at least decent ones)

    The moisture thing took us a minute to figure out, and when you first buy one you should gently wash the head in some soap according to the inventor. Production puts some type of gunk on there apparently.

    I have a few others sitting in the cart, might pull the trigger. The Shryke is one of the farthest flying discs available but in Halo Star plastic, it handles extra wind or the torque of big arms like a dream. Add 3+ discs and enter 'ilikemyshryke' to try an F2 Halo Star Shryke for FREE!!! Link...

    Innova Racer

    I used some reward points to pick up one of the first run metal flake Racers. I had just lost a perfectly tuned destroyer so this looked interesting, but the one they sent is absolutely gorgeous and I can't bring myself to throw it.

    2024 Reviewer of the Year

    Rainbow Vomit is a good time, decent tacos next door too. I took both the 6 and 8 year old to Meow Wolf, they loved it.

    [PDGA Major] Champions Cup 2024

    IMO it's nice to see the pros play a hole that has them kicking their bags too. Sure beats another 2 dozen hyzers.

    Dallas/FW April 20th or 21st

    Saturday looks like thunderstorms all day :( I'll have to skip Sunday if it really pours, Turner is a lot of driving to slip in mud for a few hours.

    F2's are normally always in the 'popular' weights, not necessarily the best for the average arm. I'm pretty happy with this 167 FB though, that's my usual driver range. I doubt they'll ever freebie anything lighter since they just don't make as many runs in those weights.

    I've never thrown a Hawkeye so missing this week, but the Halo Firebird I got is just about the most gorgeous disc I've ever owned. So far I haven't found the F2 issue with it. Easy to power up for long straight flights, the [7|5|-1|1] Hawkeye has quickly become a favorite, especially in the...

    It works (mostly) if you can find the event. The menus/navigation is so bad it should run for office.
