i didn't understand.
If you have a 30 inch sling, with overhead throws, the rock will have to go towards your target from a spot approximately 30" above your head. If the target is on the ground, you have to account more for latitudinal variation than with underhand.
The rock from an underhand throw would leave the sling about a foot off the ground and if your target is a foot off the ground, it only has to release straight, plus, if it lands short it will likely bounce right into it.
I would like to see a strong/powerful "strict" underhand throw from someone, because as CA said, I tend to make it more Balearic than anything in order to engage the hips more.
