* Avoid leaning back, sticking your elbows out, or twisting your body to the side.
  +
* Make sure that none of your backcrosses or normal throws are lower than your [[basic pattern]] height, and that you're not waiting too long to start a throw, so you will have enough time to make a proper throw before you have to catch another object.
  +
* If you're throwing clubs out too wide, you need to hold on to them longer. If they're hitting you in the head, you're holding on too long.

Backcrosses are crossing throws made behind the back, where the object comes forward on the same side of the body where it will be caught.

Tips

  • Avoid leaning back, sticking your elbows out, or twisting your body to the side.
  • Make sure that none of your backcrosses or normal throws are lower than your basic pattern height, and that you're not waiting too long to start a throw, so you will have enough time to make a proper throw before you have to catch another object.
  • If you're throwing clubs out too wide, you need to hold on to them longer. If they're hitting you in the head, you're holding on too long.
