I had a board member who cared. Although that's a statistically insignificant sample, he had a good point. If you do an underhand toss, the ball has to travel farther. Any small error in the angle of the toss will be magnified by the distance it has to travel. His recommendation: either two-hand toss it (which I do now) or shot put it.

Chuck, thanks for the idea about scooting the players back. I usually start outside the circle, whistle, march smartly into the circle and toss it quickly. If the players are too close together, I'm in trouble. I think I'll try the approach you suggest.
