If you make it to Denton, I could show you how to grab and hold it in 30 secs and it'll allow you to throw a 7' (14' dia) and 8' (16' dia and not allowed in Texas ) easily. That 5' (10' dia) is a piece of cake. Bring it to Fishndude's TTH show booth and we'll catch some catfish. lol...
Heavier is better ...especially if you are castnetting something like shad in deeper water for stripers or baiting jugs.

Not yet. I threw it prolly 50 times in the yard today, and only one or two times it landed open. All the others it was like a taco or burrito.
Just from using common sense, I think I'm not getting it to rotate/spin and have centrifugal force help me open the net.
I thought about filming myself throw it a few times and posting that, but not sure if it would help others help me or not.
Do film it Shane. Save you some gas money, and entertain us as well. Being you do some of the best live threads here, it would be well followed and commented on!!!!!
And chalk me up as another that could show you in person, but not so much on the puter.
I'm thinking that if I was going to help someone with something, that seeing them do it their 'way' would help me offer suggestions....and yes, it would be entertaining seening me throw a cast net like a professed expert bow fishing guide.
I'll get the cam out tomorrow and see if I can record something for y'all.

Skinny
A vid of you launching tacos and hittin swig time poses would go viral in no time!
It takes lots of practice but don't feel bad. I have one with the cheater ring on it and I still have several of my throws that end up like a taco. Can't imagine trying to throw a 7'.
