I just started playing a few weeks ago, and have been getting out every chance I get (3x a week).
I throw RHBH & RHFH, with equal distance (200') but have no accuracy with FH, so I am working mainly on my BH (drives especially).
My problem (or question) is, I can throw my midrange discs (Cobra, Stingray & Buzzz) the same distance if not farther flat footed than I can my drivers (with a run-up or flat footed). Is this common when starting out?
I have read everything I can on driving, and have watched a lot of youtube clips, but can't seem to get my driving down. The discs I have tried are mainly 165ish and are Wraith, Valkyrie (170 & 150), Sidewinder, XL, Stratus, Cheetah (150) and Cyclone. I tend to go with a standard 4 finger (power) grip.
My best guess is that I don't have the arm-speed to make these drivers fly as they were designed, but unsure. I'm also fairly certain my technique is sloppy. I practice as much as I can and don't planning on giving up, so any advice or links to vids or articles (any advice at all) would be greatly appreciated.
