One of the holes on the course I designed is giving me fits on how best to throw it
The teepad is on the side of a hill, throwing across a small canyon 25 feet below, with the basket about 20 feet back up the other side so it's almost at eye level. The short basket sits on a knoll about 305 feet away, the mid at 400 ft.
The wind rips from 10 - 25 mph over the ridge behind at an angle, so that it's coming at anywhere from a 90 degree angle to 30 degree angle over my right shoulder pushing the disc straight down into the canyon.
What disc and type of throw would you recommend?
I find that a FH gets me the most distance and fights back against the wind cutting through it, whereas all my BH throws get beat down no matter the angle of release or disc type.
Thanks!
