I Had a chance to go throw in a field at the family farm for a while today- first field work I have had in a while. Threw stuff I don't usually throw that much, and was trying for good technique over my usual style, of crap. Avoiding rounding at all costs, pulling into the right pec, and slamming my right heel down into the plant, trying to use my lower body more.
The first several throws were cutting hard right. Some were going high, some were going low. After a while I got it a little dialed in, got my trident out past 250, which I only ever used for thumbers before, it cuts hard.
The big surprise for me was the Scythe- usually I throw the bolt for max distance- or something a little more understable since my form isn't amazing- but i got the scythe out to 360 today, which is usually a pretty beefy disc for me.
Had my first successful backhand roller- with my daughters Opto air diamond- 373 feet-
Feels like progress is being made- but there is still lots of work to do. Still not feeling the snap, I'm kind of stuck on that point.
Anyone have any ideas on how to chase the unicorn? To find the mythical "snap" that unlocks miraculous distance?
