I've never even heard of a begginer. What do they beg for? Maybe they beg for beginners.

Very true.

When ever I try to throw really far, I end up releasing it late, with anhyzer, and nose down. So instead of going to +400ft straight like I wanted, it goes about 370ft to the right and does an curl roll to the center of the fairway.

Just work on being smooth.

Yeah, you must be doing something wrong, like releasing with with the wrong angle. I throw over 400' and can keep a valkyrie straight enough without worrying about it flipping. Any disc can be thrown straight, you just have to know what angle to release it at.

this sounds like off-axis torque.

generally this happens as "noise" in the throw, often in the form of a wrist roll over, leaning back during the throw, or diving the shoulder down and following through like a roller.

I was gonna say that you may be rolling your wrist over, but Blake beat me to it. He is the technique God.

No spin and a lot of force = a flying turd
