Gloves?

[STSgoalie]

I throw a lot of forehand drives, and lately the bottom of the disc has been ripping my fingers, is wearing a glove on my throwing hand legal? Thanks

[mmyersdisc]

just tape them...I would think the gloves would mess you up...

Yes, you can wear a glove.

I have the strangest callouses on my release points on my throwing hand.

It eventually stops bleeding and becomes scar tissue. Overcome and adapt.

The under armor gloves work pretty good. They are like receiver gloves with little stickies on them with good grip(not too grippy), and fit tight. I wear them under 30 degrees, and yes they are legal. I also wore them after my Boss ripped off of chunk of my middle finger knuckle. After it callus's and you play regularly it won't blister anymore or hurt.

Innova I think the phrase you are looking for is "adapt and overcome." Those under armor gloves sound promising. I will remember those for next winter.:)

Here is a great pair of gloves to wear. I don't think anyone would ever bother you either if you had these on:

I prefer this glove as it works well with the power grip.

My gloves will get you out of a fight. That glove will get you into one.

I believe we have hijacked this thread with stupid jokes.:D

I regularly use my own variation of the phrase as a byline but it is based on that quote.

Nice eye. I did not want to copy their slogan, but I liked the concept.


Another good one is.

Observe and learn...

under armour has a pair of gloves for 30 that are thin and have grips on the fingers. i use them in new england in the winter. dick's sells them. they help me.

I used a glove with the fingers cut off this winter, originally I started using it because my throwing hand was getting cold. Before I started using the glove I was developing a nasty callus on my palm sort of between the bottom of my middle and index fingers. What the glove effectively did was teach me to throw the disc with a looser grip, so now I don't have any palm calluses and my drives fly much further.

All my DG buddies laughed at me for wearing the glove though, but they all laugh at lots of things I do when I throw. lol I really could care less. :D

Like mmyersdisc said just use tape. Or the Power glove. Or just have your companion throw for you...
