Zelezney--Left foot at Plant Goes Over to Left? jsalexanderson, Sun May 18 05:56

He moves his left foot over considerably left in the throwing position, correct, to get a more stable base for the pull? Is this correct? Hard to implement? Thanks.

Old Man Ranting: 700 gram Javelin Chuck Greene, Fri May 16 11:01

Words cannot describe the utter frustration of adjusting to a 700 gram javelin; very much akin to throwing the pre-1986 implement. It must be thrown absolutely perfect - lest it go straight up ....and straight down. Not only lighter, it's thin as can be; mocking my beefy paw. By the way..... What is up with 50... more
