All day Corey replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"The power grip is what I throw all the time with an X step or a version of the X step. With the right comination a Teebird will go 375' with a margain of error of 50' or so depending on weather conditions. Keep practicing with the disc…"
Jordan smith replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"wind helps.. i was out yesterday football field throwing with wind and i say i can throw 350 because i can get most of my disc field goal to field goal anytime. but yesterday I threw a couple and they hit the fence 20 or so feet behind the post so i…"
Trae-Bear replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"just get more snap and work on your drives in a field but dont just do that also work on your putting and approaches..."
Josh Osborn replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"Thank you everyone for your replies. I figured it had to do with snap but not sure how to go about it. I have only recently started playing again and i am playing as much as i can now that my shoulder has allowed me. So i have been playing as much…"
Charles Isaac replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"You know last year I had this same problem. I mean I could throw a ROC or a BUZZZ (or a Rhyno) the same as my best driver, like a wraith, destoryer et el. I have worked on lots of snap.
It is practice, practice, practice. When I first started in…"
Blake Meyers replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"the disc must tear out of ur hand to get huge distance tighten your grip to ensure that the disc doesnt slip out but rips out this adding more snap speed and distance"
Rescue replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"Snap/ Speed. For instance a Destroyer is a speed of 12 and the Teebird is a Speed of 7. Speed is not how far the disc will go. It is the required speed for YOU to throw it at in order for the disc to fly the way it was intended. So if you look at…"
nick young replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"I notice this sometimes happening when i can throw my predator as far as my surge. It happens because often at a field you are throwing for distance with all of your discs when at a course you choose a disc because of its distance and stabillity.…"
Donny Olow replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"Also get the correct weights in your plastic. Max weight is not always the best."
Ghost replied to Josh Osborn's discussion Driving Distance???"More snap and get the nose of the disc down. Until you have better technique, the faster speed drivers won't do you any good, so I'd pull the wraith, avenger, surge and destroyer for now. Snap is all about timing and it takes most people…"

I went out to the football field to throw my collection of disc to see which ones go farther and what not. So i got out there and threw all my drivers, Destroyer, wraith, beast, sidewinders, leopards, teebirds, tl, avenger, surge, tracker, eagle and couple others. But my confusion comes to that everyone of those discs i would throw about 290. All pretty much the same distance just with a little different endings. So with that being said i am wondering what i might need to do different to…See More
