Is there a resource that describes, in great detail, the various methods for launching HLG's? I' ve been launching using the finger hole in a LB2 and an overhand throw facing 90 degrees for the arc of the throw (like a baseball throw) but was wondering if, other than the discus throw, there were

Help! I need someone to transport my HLG to Pheonix in time for the HL Golf contest on Friday. I've got someone to take my TD ship, but they aren't sure they'll be there in time for the HLG contest. Contest starts at 3:30...I'd hate to be there with nothing to fly :-(. Can anyone give me a han
