You are correct. I have small hands and struggle getting my fingers around the rim on anything with a fairway driver thickness without the disc pointed at a 45 degree skyward with my arm extended. All the throws stall out (nose up). I'd like to get to a regular power grip, but haven't figured it...

Thanks for the tips. I'll give it a shot.

Here's my first video. My 8 y/o daughter shot it for me (we play a game where she starts at my first throw). I play recreationally. I'm experiencing an invisible wall at 300 ft. I can hit 300 ft MAX on a great 1 out of 10 throw. 220-260 is a better average. So, what do you more seasoned pros see...

You are confusing the terms "fade" and "turn". So, to correct your statement... For all intents and purposes, many discs will turn right, fly right, and hit the ground right of the direction thrown... out on the course. Look. My intent wasn't to start some ticky-tack argument or get into a...

Throw those discs 50 ft. Which way did they finish? Exactly. The only reason I brought this up is to clarify with the op that if he's talking about a disc thrown RHBH (clockwise spin) to fade out right, it doesn't exist.

Exactly. Given enough time, the clockwise spin will turn left. But with the right combination of weight and understableness for the arm speed will result in a right flying disc like I said. You can get a RHBH thrown disc to turn right, but it will still never fade (low speed "finish") right...

You understand that the shear dynamics of throwing a disc with clockwise spin will always finish left, right? Throw a paper plate RHBH, and it will finish left. The trick is finding the correct combination of weight to understableness for your arm speed. That will result in a right flying disc...

My MVP Tangent does this shot for me every time. It's great. When new, it wasn't as under stable, but after a few tree strikes, perfect right finish.

It's basically how fast YOU have to throw it to get it to fly as rated.

I just got a Verdict a couple weeks ago. Works great so far. If you're looking for a very stable mid, give it a try.

I don't play tournaments (still pretty new), but couldn't you call the offending player out on his/her bad behavior and start taking adding strokes? By the rules, you have to follow the rules, and enforce the rules, or that's against the rules. ;)...

I played the course this weekend. VERY short. If anyone was going for that most holes in 24 hours record, this would be a good place to try that. But, the course was fun. I had the wife and kids with me. This course is great for kids. My 7 year old daughter even pared one or two of them. So...

As for where to buy, do you have a Dick's Sporting Goods, or Academy Sports nearby? Those big chain stores carry an OK selection of Innova discs. You should be able to find a good putter/mid/driver combo there.

I've always wanted to see the flight shape of a disc thrown from a VERY high platform...say, a hot air ballon. What would the steady state flight look like? Like, after the fade, does the disc stay vertical and fall to the ground, or does it pick up speed and turn back horizontal-ish, and start...
