as long as you can come up with some crazy ideas that people will believe
About the eye thing or about being a caddy at the BHMO? Crazy ideas are a lock. Getting people to believe them is the hard part.

Idk about the legitemacy (sp?) of Feldys insight on dominant eye stuff, but ive heard a lot about it in regard to hitting in baseball, it surprises me that you havent heard some of the same.
A few seasons ago Pujols had changed up his stance a bit and instead of being mostly sideways and looking at the pitcher with primarily just his left side, he adjusted his head and now faces his head directly at pitchers. For the reasons of his right eye being dominant.
That doesnt proove its legit science or that it works for everyone, just throwin it out there that it has been discussed in major sports. Id be willin to be Sports Science did a piece on it also, ill try and search for a link.

yes 2 eyes does work better then one, which is a better way to see the ball, i have never heard of a baseball player only using one eye to see a baseball. but unless your playing darts or some small game like that. I just don't believe something like that will help a person putting. i see it as more of a excuse then a adjustment.

i'm pretty sure every shot i throw from my toes or ball of my foot, i'm one of a very very few that do. i always pivot if i have the room on every shot even putts

But, I dont think that its a situation where people are using one squinting eye (as a crude and obviously over simplified example) i think in the case of hitters, it helps them easier identify the rotation of the ball and determine what sort of pitch it will be, since one eye or the other is supposedly dominant.
Im sure feldy-science can have a way of sounding ridiculous tho.

Obviously Millenium and Innova don't have the same realtionship that Discmania and Innova have, but I'm wondering if, because there IS a connection, however tenuous, if you are allowed the throw Millenium in competition? I've never seen an Innova pro do so, so I can assume the answer is "no" but perhaps it's as simple as none of you really care for their discs.
If you could throw Millenium, what discs would you throw, if any?
Also (sorry for the double question) if you could bring back one extinct Innova mold, what would it be? My vote is for the Pegasus.

So you're saying that a majority of pro DG'ers pivot on their heel? That doesn't even seem natural. I remember Dave and The Champ commenting in their Fundamentals video about staying on the balls of your feet. Seems natural to me. Heel pivot seems like you're asking for trouble.
Almost every pro rotates on their heel.

Your heel is more in line with your leg than the balls of your feet, it's a lot better for you knees.
I have heard that heel pivot is bad for your knees. Huh. Weird.
