Throwing a mid-range disc is different than throwing a driver and it took me a long time to come to that term. But I had to adapt to throwing a mid-range disc, than throwing a driver. And it's two completely different throws, two completely different grips, and I'm just coming to terms with that. One of the grips that I just learned with throwing a mid-range is to use just three fingers or even just two fingers on certain shots. Where when you do a driver, the big pro grip is all four fingers all tied up in there with your thumb right on the thumb track and you squeeze it as hard as you can and you just let the disc go. I tried to do that with these mid-range discs and they immediately just turn or fade. They get about fifty feet, and I'm embarrassed and I walk away. And so I've learned that throwing one of these discs with just three fingers cuts off on the inaccuracy that my pinkie or even my ring finger will create when the disc is out of my hand, because most of the power is coming from my thumb and my index finger. That's where I'm creating the most pressure. Thank you very much, name is John Stone.
