that’s something i’ve been working on for a while. it’s difficult on hyzers to load onto my heel, but delaying my reachback as long as possible has actually made the most difference on the pivot. the robinson brothers both like to pivot off the ball of their foot more than not from what i’ve noticed but yeah most high-level golfers go on the heel.

I get my I-Blend 169g Sphinx to have a nice turn and reliable fade to 260'. Standstill, with my most natural throw that has a touch of hyzer.
There are holes on my local courses that I simply can't reach, and I've been okay with that since I started off not being able to throw 175' last summer. Now I'm wondering if I could reach for something like a Mamba or Maya to push closer to 300', and if so what weight and plastic?

Once I stopped throwing everything up and nose up, the thing that got me over 300' was spin. Look at your grip and wrist position in the power pocket and I'm sure you'll find improvement.

also do yourself a favor and buy used from a play it again or something. Beat-in plastic is almost always better and cheaper.
also also more speed doesnt mean more distance. I throw about 315 and mostly throw 7 speeds or understable 9 speeds.

I lost a thunderbird in the water crossing at my local place the first time I went so I dove for it and came back with 16 more discs. I kept the ones without numbers and only one (1) still smells like swamp ass.

It's a great sport. Once you start buying you cant stop tho. Just picked these up from my local shop.

Love Clash, but I hate the look of the Steady Ring.
