Which do you use more?

[JKP21]

Do use more tomahawks or thumbers?

What distances?

What discs?

Thumbers
Predator
300

 

[Beetard]

Either the line is available for.

Firebird for control thumbers, orc for tommies, flick for thumber distance

200-280 Hello, auto-birdie!

 

[brennan]

I was taught the tomahawk when I first started play, and didn't even know what a thumber was until I started reading this board. So, I throw tomahawks mainly. I use Banshees, just because that's my normal overstable driver for flicks and wind. I can throw them ~260 ft. I've never measured.

 

[BIG MACK]

Thumber...my max D is about 315. Currently with a Monster. Ever since I started throwing the thumber, I can no longer throw the tomohawk...weird but true.

 

[Roy]

It depends if I want it to end to the left or to the right. If I could throw a more conventional shot I would, so I am only using these shots for unique shots.

tommy :175 champ RR, 325/350, great control
thumber : 175 Z Pred, 220 max and who knows where its gonna go

needless to say i use my tommy 1000% more than my thumber

 

[kern97871]

Thumber feels more natural to me (I guess because of baseball). Don't use it much except for short shots over obstacles. If I were to throw them more often, I would either use my z pred or get an flx pred for it. Last time I threw one it was ~280, but I could probably hit 320+ if I were to practice it a bit more.

 

[Spinach D1]

I don't think I ever throw thumbers more than about 200 ft. Maybe 220.

I never throw tommys, but I supose it would be nice to have the right-to-left option. The problem is that to shorten the shot I face the top of the disc toward the ground to various degrees, and I find that quite hard to do with a tommy but easy with a thumber.

Thumber
Flick
350

 

[arowan21]

I'm pretty accurate with the thumber, but can't throw a tommie at all.

 

[The Clergyman]

tommy
proD Venom
280

 

[Mr. Wick]

The better line, I use em both.

z-predator - 300-330

 

[pointdisc]

Whatever lines is available, but 75-25 t-hawks to thumbers.

200-330 - air, low line drives, skip shots...

Champ Firechicken or Eagle-X for more left-to right action, Z-Wasp for shorter holes

pd

 

[zj10021]

tommy with champ 11x eagle-x. tried it with z pred and firebird but the eagle just performs better for me

 

[SpikeHyzer]

Thumber
Proline Firechicken/Z-Xtreme
280-300

 

[BarrabusTheDiscGolfGnome]

shot: thumber
disc: champ banshee
distance: usually into the nearest tree trunk. But if I somehow get through, 180-200.
