Primary Throwing Style - Poll (Attempt #2)

[djjeremiahj]

Are you a BH or a FH or Both?
Curiosity.

Both -
60/40
Interestingly enough, i favor my BH, but when i play rounds entirely with my FH i seem to do equal (or maybe better???) - am confident to take any shot with either method.

 

[bradharris]

The backhand is coming along, but I'm still primarily forehand.

 

[roadtripstuff]

Both.

 

[whiz]

Both. It is a big advantage over primarily bh players.

 

[jsun3thousand]

the poll is illegitimate. rollers can be thrown overhead, backhand, and forehand.

inb4 the prerubing.

 

[BrotherDave]

Really both minus the equal confidence and ability part. I'm probably ~60/40 on BH/FH, BH for distance, FH for a lot of approach and fairway stuff.

 

[OcDiscGolf]

Both for me, although I still shank about 10% of my forehand drives off the tee into the ground. This is compared to never doing this BH, so my BH confidence is about 400% more than my FH. For "less than full power" shots my skill is very close in both and it helps drastically with "Leftie" holes.

 

[sidewinder22]

All the above and where's the chicken wing option? I throw whatever gives me the best look.

 

[woodcutter]

Iv always threw BH, but this year Iv been really working on my FH. I belive it will help my game as a whole.

 

[Alucard_Jh]

I'm a terrible FH

 

[Connor Jones]

Forehand is definitely my distance shot,give me an open hole and a beat pro destroyer and I can near 400,maybe break it with some wind.

But I really prefer backhands for line shaping,but i'd say i'm truly about 50/50,from the tee and the fairway.

 

[eegor]

I started all backhand. Then went 80% forehand... then went all backhand... now I'm 80% backhand / 20% forehand.

I have confidence in both, but throwing too much forehand makes my shoulder hurt.

 

[Triflusal]

I mainly drive with an airbrush

 

[412Disc]

I'd say I'm 70/30 backhand and thumber.

 

[RoundWounds]

Both, equal confidence and ability.

 

[cfair]

you miss a few things...

I throw BH both right and left handed.

 

[discgolfer25]

Forehand 95% of the time

 

[SAxDrc]

When I started I was all FH. Now I would say I am equally confident at BH

 

[MrFixIt]

Mainly backhand. I only use forehand/overhead/rollers for GOOT shots. I will sometimes forehand a short hole/approach, it's coming along somewhat :gross:

 

[TheWCG]

I'm half and half. Having both FH and BH opens up a LOT of different options. Options are good!
