Of course! I have the marks on my hands to prove it! :lol: You should see the 2 discs that I've set aside to use for take and tug. They are riddled with little tooth holes. Lol!

DK~ I cant WAIT until it warms up and we start having playdates again. I feel much more confident, and she is showing me that shes ready to keep moving forward. Her flips get bigger, her catches are becoming more consistant.
My biggest worry is distance throws. We havent had the place to practice those at all. So when the snow is finally gone that will be where we need to start working. Oh, and my own throws, too.. (I suuuuuck at throwing.)

The nice thing is you really dont need distance throws for freestyle and the catch 22 field isnt terribly long. If you can get your form down and consistantly place the disc for short tosses I think you will be in great shape to extend their reach.
