That should be banned in Disc Golf community!!
Folf Club?!? Geez!!
Looks like that concept/design came from skeet hand thrower that I use to throw when in Boy Scout for skeet shooting.
Using it, you'll have to think like sidearm throws.

Re: Want more D ?
The atlatl was invented numerous thousands of years ago - this concept is nothing new. Not really related to "disc golf" in any way (and certainly can't be used in tournaments, etc.); just some specific way to "throw" farther with aid. Sort of like ball golfing with illegal balls, etc.

Re: Want more D ?
T'wil pose an interesting quandary...and one that the PTB should be looking into right now - as the whole Pistorius thing (in the Olympics, not the shooting thing) should've opened people's eyes to such.

Not so.....This thing is an oximoron. You throw with a sidearm/forehand motion but the disc comes out spinning clockwise like a backhand throw. Look at the vid the discs thrown with this thing righthanded are fading left.

You're correct. I just tested myself. Yeah, it does spin clockwise. But still, you will have to throw like sidearm style anyway.
