Learn to throw a Leopard as far as your Boss Chase and you will develop great form. Now if you are throwing it 450 then maybe not but you should be able to get one 350.

I totally agree. The problem is most of us are looking for a faster way to add some distance besides practice. So we hope buying a faster disc will work for us. Of course I'm the same way. I upgraded my Eagle to a Wraith as soon as it came out. Go figure.

I know exactly what you mean. Almost every person I run into has a Boss or Xcal and its really not doing them any good, theyll never harness it because they havent even learned to control the discs that came before it.

Agreed, but some people throw forehand and need something pretty overstable and fast such as an Xcal, Force, Boss, etc.

yah, i met only one guy who was using it for forehand, and it was still wayyyyyyyy too overstable for him, and this was a big guy. but i see your point, i was mainly talking about backhand. i am just playing rounds with putters lately and maybe a midrange now and then

By "some" you mean Woodlands guys right?

Its about time to learn the right way to throw a disc.

No, I meant more along the lines of anyone who is able to comprehend how to do the same thing multiple ways

Doesn't everyone?

That is just part of the game.

I did. But if you use a forehand for anything more than certain holes/shots that probably means you need to work on the backhand.

Only 1-2 1000 rated players throw Forehand as their main shot and even Geoff Bennett has starting using mostly BH due to the fact you will eventually throw your elbow out if you have REAL FH power.
