Hey Guys,
In the past few months I've decided to take my DGing seriously and I watched a boat-load of youtube videos and read a bunch of articles to help improve my RHBH throw. I've come across conflicting advice with regards to grip either saying "grip it as hard as you can" or "It should be loose and comfortable". I've changed my grip to the power grip because there seemed to be somewhat of a consensus as to this being the best grip for maximum distance (previously I had a control grip that I learned from years of throwing a frisbee). However, since I started using this grip I've developed a nasty blister just above my top knuckle on my index finger. It doesn't bother me terribly, but I'm wondering if this rubbing against my index finger is messing up the spin of the disc. I can definitely feel it catch each time I let it go on a long drive.
Am I gripping too hard? Not hard enough? or Is it the fact I have freakishly small hands for someone who is 5'11?
Any advice is appreciated!!!
