just wondering what everyone else does.... i've been doing the one handed shot put toss for the last few years and it works pretty good for me, but i see a lot doing the 2 handed toss, so i try it the other night, i did a couple of practice tosses in the locker room and went out and tried it in a high school scrimmage game, i think i about hit the ceiling with it, i guess i was worried about getting it high enough and went a little overboard, it was pretty funny!!!! Is there a matter of preference to the 1 or 2 handed toss to Assignors?????

I did 1 handed, then I discovered that the spin I got on it would change it's course slightly when it gained hight, so I went to two handed, but I think it's just a personal feeling and touch deciding

Never heard of anyone caring how many hands are used...so long as it's straight and goes the right height. I use one.

I use one hand and sometime two.

1 handed toss, no whistle. :)

Two
 

I use both hands. I have been to camps where they only teach the one handed toss, it just does not work for me.

Peace

I use one and toss underhand. Someone suggested that I try overhand (hold ball like a waiter holding a tray above his/her head to toss) and I'm considering switching, as tossing that way does appear to have less variability from toss to toss.

I go one handed. To work on it, I stand by a basket and toss the ball so it goes a little above the rim and doesn't touch it. Someone showed me that as a slick way to practice once.

3 hands here.

I bounce the ball off the floor. It has to go a little high though because the players aren't expecting it, have to give them a little time to gather themselves.

I am a 2 handed tosser, I was thinking about trying to switch to 1 handed to give me a hand to protect myself with.

D@mmit, I wuz gunna say that.

1 hands, 2 hands, who cares? Do assignors really care about such crap?

Actually, I take that rhetorical question back. At a provincial finals tournament, I was once told to not touch my elbow as I report the # of FTs a player gets. ::rolleyes::

Definitely a one hander. It works for me so I'm not fixin' what ain't broke.

I hope you're kidding.

Did it once in a class C intramural game (lowest level) once. They got a kick out of it.

But I'm a one hander.
