Long Turnover Throw

[shirfan]

The shot described in the first post is a gap in my game right now that I'd like to close. (Roughly, the reverse of a new teebird thrown flat.) For under 270'ish, worn gazelles will take the right line, but pushing out further has been a problem. I've tried a beat leopard but usually either throw it high and wild or have it not hold the late turn after flipping to flat.

Also, there seems to be a tendency for discs to take an edge on landing and roll back and away from the intended line with this throw.

How does one go about putting intentional OAT on the disc to get a long, smooth "anti-fade"?

I practice a flick for that shot specifically, but I have a beat up cobra and a road runner in my bag for that shot. They need to up thrown just a little bit higher to keep them from turning over too much and rolling... that's the tricky part!

the flip hyzer is one of the prettiest shots in disc golf.

understable disc throw with a hyzer, but in the direction you'd throw it if you were throwing it flast...and yeah...a best will do it for sure.

For me a Gateway Sabre or Goldline vision works perfect. Throw it "easy" slight hyzer, they will straighten out and curve to the right nicely (RHBH). Both discs do it right out of the box. no need to season a disc for this shot. Some complain that the Vision is too flippy. My experience is that you just want a soft, controlled throw. No need for too much torque these things glide well. my thoughts anyways.

LOL Yes, they do. Otherwise they turn into a cut roller and wind up about 100ft from where they should...

But I am really discovering the beauty of a DX Gazelle that is beat to crap...they do this shot naturally.

Pro Leopard does it for me really well. I wouldnt go with one that is too beat though. I like to put variations of hyzer angles to control when it is going to cut and if I want it to come back at the end, wind up almost full hyzer.
