Throw a putter to help your distance driving - worst advice of all time

[BrotherDave]

Posting image macros has actually been proven to hurt your distance driving.

Going into a field and throwing putters helped me clean up my form a lot. I think that it is good advice to learn how to throw putters. I've me very few DGers who Have learned correct form by throwing a boss or a force

To each their own. That is why everyone doesn't have the exact same disc line-up in their bag ;P

Well obvious troll number 2, I have every right to give advice here. The question is, why are you posting on this thread if you do not like it?

Oh yea, troll...

You need to grow up.

It doesn't work to call people trolls, when you made a thread knowing good and well it would be trolled. You're basically trolling the trolls, with a thread made for trolling.

Bad thread is bad.

Of course, if I was having trouble throwing my putter, wouldn't you suggest I take my putter to a field and throw it, not say, a Firebird, right?

You are throwing your discs over 200ft HIGH in the air?

To warn others.

Thank you.
I do not question that just throwing in general will help form. My peeve is people can learn the same form throwing a slower speed driver like a Teebird, and disc down from Bosses and Destroyers, but still have the feel of a driver in hand.
