taking what i learned from Jrawk :hfive:...i practiced a little bit today before i played, and started with no steps, to just 2 steps, and instead of a swooping run up throw, i was doing more of a pull through throw (more form correct)
i was basically facing backwards with my arm straight posistion pointing away from my target, taking 1 step and pulling the disc in a straight motion across my body during the 2nd step...i was able to throw low and accurate averaging 420-460, with so much less effort than my previous way of throwing. i feel like with the energy i was using to throw this far, i would of thrown around 350' with my other form. i was able to flip the destroyer over very easy, and the boss was holding its line from a flat release and going a little farther than the destroyer.
if anyone would like for me to post a video on this i wouldnt mind, its a great way to gain distance, while giving less effort, and being accurate (mainly because the setup is consistant) this is also a drive style that i believe can be used in the wooded courses.
i tried this same form on midrange discs as well as putters, and found that my form is not yet clean enough for these discs, as the disc comes out fluttering and diving to the right (mainly because i have not yet figured a good grip for these yet)...but for the drivers they come out very very clean, no visible sign of wobble.
