ACCURACY
Like distance throwing, formal accuracy competition is more of a pure test of skill type of game. There are, however, particular strategies which help to produce consistently good scores. Accuracy and golf require much the same type of skills. There is a major difference, however. Golf has no second chances. You must assess the situation, choose your shot and offer it up. If you are wrong, you can take it into account in the next similar situation. Accuracy presents that situation immediately. The great accuracy throwers are capable of immediate and effective adjustment. Each shot affects the throw of the next. For this reason, the timing of the throws is very important. You must be sure to maximize this adjustment procedure. Throwing to quickly won’t allow adequate consideration of each shot – posturing over each throw for a minute lets your body forget what it just did and allows the wind conditions to change. It helps to experiment with different deliveries from the various sites. Some players use up to three different throwing styles. Simplicity is important however. If you find the adjustment difficult, stay with one dependable throw you can get into a groove.
