Before you begin, choose a very open area and make sure no one is in the throwing zone or in an area where the object could land. Start with controlled throws to get a feel for the stick's trajectory. You should increase the intensity gradually as you become more comfortable with the movement. Wind conditions must also be taken into account: gusts can significantly alter the trajectory.
