What handle do you hate most?

I think what would server you better is finding out what the prevalent handle is for the part of the country where you compete (if there is one) and getting one of those.  For example, I have never thrown a game in the Southeast that didn't use ring handles, so that is what is on all my practice implements. 

That said, when I competed in Texas at the beginning of the season, I threw with triangle and D handles just fine.  Perhaps I'm not good enough for it to make a difference or perhaps ring handles are the worst case.  Your mileage may vary.

Handle doesn't matter that much IMO. Get whatever is comfortable and learn the positions with it.

I'd go with whatever allows you to get the most practice reps in, because it really shouldn't matter that much. You may have to modify your hook a little between a thin ring handle and a thick D-handle, but its not as though the throw technique changes between handles. If you chose a handle you hate its probably gonna take away from from working on positions in practice.

Small diameter ring handles. Like holding a FFFFFing razor blade.

lmao, this is the first I visited the thread and saw what Geoffrey Cast wrote.


Small diameter rings are the worst. Large diameters are meh, but they're doable. I do, in fact, prefer the D handle. All of my big throws are with either a D or a triangle. 90'2 in Pton was a triangle and 48'8 in Estes was a D.
