Mikk, I've noticed the same phenomenon in myself and others ... big distance, way right (rhbh).

I've been practicing one-step throws on my patio (hanging onto the disc) and find that sometimes the maximum "swoosh" comes after my hand comes off line and is rotating to the right. I'm assuming that means the optimal hit point is late; hence, bad mechanics that need fixing.

Probably this, and because you are grip-locking and therefor putting more spin on the disc (ripping it), explains the increased distance.

I'm now working on getting the max swoosh to occur while still on the target line, and am getting personal bests while on the fairway ...

Congrats of the physical recovery!
