I have read posts that emphasize using the putter for training, play rounds with putters, and people throwing the putters hundreds of feet.
I have a 167g GStar Aviar P&A (new). When I throw it on a slight hyzer line(which is what it appears Mike C is doing), with the same power that I throw my drivers, it flips up and turns hard into a roller. If I drop the power/reduce the backswing I can keep the disc in the air much longer. It goes about the same distance as the roller but it's more controlled (150'ish).
I also have a 171g Star Roadrunner(few marks but new). I throw that on a slight hyzer and get a nice hyzer flip that sometimes has a slight turn before fading. If I throw flat it gets a nice pronounced HST before getting a light fade.
My understanding of discs is that the harder/faster a disc is thrown the more pronounced the HST is and the less pronounced the LSF is. This doesn't jive with Simon Lizotte chucking a putter 400'.
I can throw about 300'. I clearly don't have the same power as Mike C or the distance of Simon Lizotte but they can bomb putters out there without them turning into rollers. How are they doing this?
