Re: Noodle Throwing Strategy

With that, I was able to reliably throw the noodle almost half the length of the field, and sometimes quite a bit farther. Our team's human player from last year tried this method as well, and he was able to throw it a bit farther than me. On one attempt he threw it almost the entire length of the field.

I don't know if that was a very good description of the technique, but I'll try to explain it further if anyone is interested.
Do you think you could post a video of it?
I've been trying but couldn't quite figure out the technique.
Thanks
