I'm just starting to play the game and have many areas to improve. My question is on drives and mid range throws, is there any advantage/disadvantage to throwing backhand vs. sidearm? I simply have not had any success throwing backhand (no distance, no accuracy - it's just plain ugly) but when I throw sidearm I get a much better, somewhat consistent throw.
Since the sidearm motion it feels better and gives me better results, I'm refining and drilling with this motion. The only time I use a backhand motion is when I'm putting - and it's more of a push motion than a backhand.
I don't want to have to relearn my throwing technique later down the road, are there other players who use these same techniques? Would it be better for me to learn, no matter how painful it may be, a backhand throw?
Thanks,
Dray
