I'm practicing throwing it the well-off-redneck way, by throwing it into the swimming pool. I threw it right handed till that arm got tired, then switched to left handed. I think I'll try over handed and under handed next. I WILL learn how to throw the darn thing.

I end up with a "C" shape and all the weights on the same side as opposed to the perfect "O" shape it should be. What am I doing wrong?
Tyme, you know there is a cheater out there. I have a net assist thrower that is like a frizbee with a handle. You load the net on the thrower and grab the handle. You trow the net out of the thrower much the same way you would throw a frizbee. The net opens fully and completely into the perfect O shape.

I looked at Bass Pro (where I got mine) and they no longer carry the same model as the one I have. However, the do have a net thrower that looks different than the one I have but in the description works much in the same way.

I do practice throwing it without the cheater, but I use the cheater when I just want to catch some shad/bait.

This is the one BP currently sells.

But the one I have does not attach to the net, you place the net on top of it and throw it out of the disc.
