Throwing a spiral
Question
Hi. I've been able to get the ball to spiral quite nicely but each time I throw it the ball will angle slightly to the right. I'm right handed and haven't been throwing all that long, also I live in Australia and American footballs aren't all that easy to find, so I usually Australian-rules footballs. They have a somewhat shorter seam and more rounded ends compared to an American football. Any tips on getting my ball to fly straighter more consistently? Thanks.
