Three cheers for the AMP I made a tremendous 300' turnover FH with it for a par save in yesterdays tourney. Most memorable shot of the day. It's great fits right between my Roadrunner and Volt. I won my division by one stroke..

Learning to FH an Amp is a valuable skill. What are you "dying" about?

Just a guess, but probably that a RHFH turnover is (almost) the same shot as a RHBH hyzer or straight-with-fade shot. There's utility in it, and that's most likely the situation that elicited Throwasurge's own shot, but I'd definitely throw backhanded on any shot that allowed me to long before I'd opt for a FH turnover.

But that's just me.

Of course Phenn, but nobody should shun the idea of someone wanting to learn FH.

Yup, I'm with you on that. MVP's discs are great for FH, they've really helped me develop that part of my game.
