When I hear up, I try to move myself into a position literally boxing out the other guy from any viable play on the disc. The thing is, as a shorter more squirrely guy, if I try to play the disc against my man (usually taller than me) I almost always end up getting skied. Therefore, I put myself in such a way that neither of us can play the disc. I don't know if this is the right strategy, but it tends to work until the guy starts throwing his weight around.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994039.post-75435796702857909282008-06-23T07:05:00.001-07:002008-06-23T07:05:00.001-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.parinellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03802604259779936852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994039.post-26134726483729620092008-06-23T07:05:00.000-07:002008-06-23T07:05:00.000-07:00I'd add (or maybe just reiterate):a.

If you're beat and you're pretty sure you aren't going to get the block, try to goad the receiver into misreading it.<BR/>c. If you catch up to the receiver well before the disc gets there, go around on the outside and try to claim the inside position.<BR/><BR/>What I had wanted to do with this was to compare and contrast the answers, see how similar the answers were (which was my first impression with this Issue, whereas other Issues had a range of opinions).parinellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03802604259779936852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994039.post-57015906802140239042008-06-19T08:27:00.000-07:002008-06-19T08:27:00.000-07:00I like the Huddle site.

I think this gives you the best chance to catch up to the well thrown pass, while still having time to adjust to a poorly thrown pass. <BR/><BR/>ajAJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04232789723776100948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994039.post-28387425191671256012008-06-18T09:10:00.000-07:002008-06-18T09:10:00.000-07:00No, Alex, it's not.
