What are the disc golf throwing styles and what specific discs are best suited for each style?

There are various throwing styles in disc golf, each with their own specific techniques and appropriate discs. Here are some of the most common throwing styles and the appropriate discs for each:

  1. Backhand Throw: This is the most common throwing style in disc golf, in which the player holds the disc with the back of their hand behind them and spins the disc to their left side to generate speed and distance. Discs suitable for this style include high-speed drivers like the Innova Destroyer, Latitude 64 Ballista, Discraft Force, and Dynamic Discs Trespass.

  2. Forehand Throw: Also known as a flick throw, this style involves holding the puck with the front of your hand forward and spinning the puck to your right side to generate speed and distance. Discs suitable for this style include high-speed drives such as the Innova Firebird, Latitude 64 XXX, Discraft Nuke, and Dynamic Discs Enforcer.

  3. Tomahawk Throw: This style of throw involves holding the disc with the back of your hand forward and throwing the disc at a high vertical angle, causing the disc to spin backwards in the air. Discs suitable for this style include midranges like Innova Gator, Latitude 64 Trident, Discraft Buzzz OS, and Dynamic Discs Justice.

  4. Roller Toss: In this style of toss, the player throws the puck at a low angle so that the puck rolls instead of flying. Discs suitable for this style include low-speed drivers like the Innova Leopard, Latitude 64 River, Discraft Sting, and Dynamic Discs Escape.

  5. Putting Shot: This is the shot style for short shots close to the hole. Discs suitable for this style include putters like the Innova Avian, Latitude 64 Pure, Discraft Challenger, and Dynamic Discs Judge.

It is important to remember that choosing the right disc also depends on each player's personal preferences and the strength of the throw.
