  • @brittany1195 yea i just started track and field and im throwing 90-95 and im in eight competing with high schoolers and i made the team

  • @DohertyRobby Heck yes, particularly if you just started. I'm a girl and now REALLY getting the hang of it, been doing it for several months, and I'm only throwing about 88-90 ft (your 30m) froma stand still.

    @bigjoe1231000 heck when I was punching only 80 something my coach said I could go 100 or higher with the full turn so I'm pretty sure with your 95 you're gonna get a lot farther. A guy on my track team punches about your distance to 115 & now throws 150 ft consistently with the turn.

  • im 15 and in grade 10, i just started practicing for the year. i can thow 26-30 m average on a stand still with the heavy disc, is that good?

  • @bigjoe

    98-103 probably.

  • @theoneandonlybillow lmao, same here, i've learned how to throw the disc on youtube :p

  • i do this and idk why but i just cant pivot off of my left foot. i take a little step to the center

  • @180NateDawg ya ikr i just found a disc for the first time and threw 340' with two fingers. then a shotput came out of the sky and i threw a 95'. are these good? i'm thinking of joining track.

    how's that for a youtube claim?

  • Ya I'm throwing 160 with this throw. It's sweet when u get the technic. And u dont need to be super strong.

  • @AdrenalineShuffle u suck lol when i was in 8th grade i threw 130' and im a freshman now and only throwing 85-90' because of the heavier disc
