Pro (Throw) Tips #1 - The Two Ball Throw

Hey, YOU! Take a look at this throw:

Neat stuff, huh?


The cool thing about this throw is that you don't necessarily have to be ambidextrous to try it out. (I was taught how to throw with my right hand at a young age).
The first ball should be thrown near the opponents feet so that it bounces in front of them. This would serve as a distraction for you to throw the second ball with your dominant hand.

Now you might ask, "why not just make two throws with the same arm?"

Well, first off, the first throw is a great bluff, but the better reason is for speed. After making the first throw, your body is almost perfectly set up to make the second. Your opponent also is a little more focused on the first ball thrown.  Having the ability to pretty rapidly fire two balls at an opponent gives you a huge advantage in the game - not to mention it's pretty unexpected.

If you want to take this throw to the next level, try to not bounce the first ball, or try to hit two people.

Let me know if you tried this out!
