You are The Batman.Dude I'm a mod, I can compare IPs. I know the account "TotallynotZenbotfromDGCR" is you.
Sorry, I should have asked this before, but are you using a big, distance line to get to 450'? How long are your golf shots with fairway drivers, mids and putters?[/QUOT
I feel comfortable throwing putters up to 250-275 ft, mid-range I try to not throw anything longer than 320-330, Fairway drivers I use up to around 375-400, and for anything further I like destroyers and boss. These are just examples for open space. As you know depending on elevation, elements, hole layout, and disc placement you will have to adjust what disc to use. Example: I wouldn't throw a driver on a hole that's 360 going down a hill. I would use a mid range because the distance is not a true 360 in the air. I throw mainly straight at a basket up to 400ft with a little "S" curve and if Im going for longer then I use more of an "S" curve. Hope this helps.

Hey bud, I am throwing champ destroyers and champ boss. The weights range from 171-175 but I prefer 171 - 173. I was actually testing out having my arm pulled back farther than normal and sometimes it helped ,but the majority of the time it was not as controlled as I like. I have good control of my drives when throwing straight towards a basket up to 400ft and between 400-450 It's more of an "S" curve which requires a wider amount of room and is little less accurate. I have gotten better at judging where my disc will land when I'm going for the big distance. Most throws are within 30-40 ft of the basket when I throw distance and use more of the "S" curve. When throwing a straight shot to a basket thats 400ft or less I am very comfortable in getting the disc within 30ft. -This is in response to "Searchingfordistance"
Yep, it helps.
Are you able to throw putters, mids and fairway drivers farther and choose not to or are those really the top end of what you're comfortable with for golf shots?
It's hard to say for sure, but it sounds like there's some things you can do to increase your "snap" to get you an additional 20'+. The Dan Beato and Bradley Walker videos can help with that stuff but it can be really hard to pin down. If you haven't yet, I'd check out DGR too.
The 400ft mark is for me also just the point where I feel a strong control over the disc and when I want to throw past that mark I most likely throw drivers with more speed such as Star Destroyer 171g,Champion boss 175g(flippy)/173g(stable) and some other ones I am trying out.If a disc has more speed then you may need to be able to put more body into the throw so it will fly as it should. (rotate the body so the back points to the direction where you are going to throw and come through with the driver as fast and powerful as you can AND remember to not only use you arm when you are throwing,,,The shoulders/upper body also have a great important job in the mechanics of the pull through.
AND one more thing...I am more into Discraft and Latitude 64 coz the Surge was my first disc to travel over 400ft and the 64 discs work like CLOCKS, they are so fun to throw with and they are very reliable in my opinion.
No. Bodacious bros with a perchance for keg stands.
