I am a right handed player.  I throw back and as well as forehand.  I get my distance driving forehand.  My favorite is the "NUKE".  When I backhand it, it goes to the left.  When Forehanded, it goes to the right.  As of late, I have been hurting myself when I backhand.  So I want to be a full time forehander.  It allows me to see or keep an eye on my target.  I take less steps (generally only two) so there's less chance of messing up, and I drive a hell of a lot further when i forehand throw a disc.  Lastly, I have not injoured myself driving forehanded.

So I am thinking of only being a forehanded thrower.  I know that being a "switch hitter" has it's benefits.  But I think I should find one style and master it versus being a decent "Jack of all trades".

So when throwing right forehanded which Discs are best for...............

Long Distance right

Long Distance left

Long Distance straight

Mid right

Mid left

Mid straight

Thumb

Roller

Tommy

 

I primarily throw Discraft.  But I do have other disc in my bag like Innova, Ching, Ion, Aerobie, and Millennium 

 

Yes I understand that I may have to start over.  So you right handed forehand throwers or flickers, please give your input.

What you say makes a lot of sense, when I play tennis I always backhand.  My forehands go too long or into the net.  Instead of practicing forehands, I just position myself for a backhand.  I don't play competitive tennis, just friendly matches, but I definitely see what you mean, nice post.
