I was just wondering what people think the keys to throwing the disc with the nose down are?

Permalink Reply by Disc Player Sports on August 14, 2012 at 7:58pm I believe what you are saying is getting on top of your disc.
It is getting the front edge, just cutting down enough to get a nice flight.
No nose up stalling.
Correct?

index finger on top of thumb grip will let you do it.

In that case it is the release angle and angle of your throw, you need to pull flat across your chest as opposed to starting from the waist and throwing upward.

Now throwing a putt nose down is another story. Some awsome putters do it. They throw straight up and the putter comes crashing straight down when it smells chains. Any time a disc flies to the right it is going nose down, that is for RHBH tosses. I could be wrong but I doubt it.
