upside down super high spike hyzers
Scooby shot? That is what peeps in Texas call it.
I agree. Reading the OP, seems kind of like a regular RHBH with the disc upside-down...think I'm missing something.
sounds like a scoobie to me.

Nope. Grip a thumber (actually technically a hook thumber) Turn the disc rightside up and throw a backhand motion. Not really sure what it is called, but this is a rightside up throw that at least Hysell is talking about. I've goofed around with it 2-3 times and on one of the first throws I got about 325 out of it...
A scooby is a backhand where you set up for a backhand but the disc is upside down, but your hand is in a fan/control grip with the thumb inside the rim and the fan is under the disc on the normal top of the disc.
You can also throw a forehand scooby. Scooby as in the dog... as in you are throwing a dog dish. :doh:
Then there's the scoober... that's a tomahawk/forehand grip that instead of overhead is thrown upside down starting at the opposite shoulder...
Grenade is a lot different (at least how I think of it). Grenade's upside down grip and the arm arc before the release is over your head (almost 90deg to reg motion)... it does a parabola and usually ends as a roller.Sounds like your describing a grenade...
i think it has different names in different regions but i'd call it a scooby
One of the guys I play with every day does this on 11 at the Z. I do a regular spike hyzer on this hole.
That's what it's called. Texas has more parks and players than any other country in this nation . So we trump all other names. It's official, in the air, or on the ground... this is known as the Scooby. opcorn:
You are asking what the shot is called, or if it even has a name, and you obviously know quite a bit about DG... seriously, how are people supposed to know what you know and don't know... then you get pissed off when people aren't interpreting your text description of it the way you intended. Pictures are good, videos are better. Text descriptions of physical concepts can be difficult.No need for all these people to pop in and say it's a scooby when it's obviously not. If it was a damn scooby why the hell would I have to ask what it is? Maybe some of these people should be asking what a mother****ing scooby is. :|
