Default How long do your TTQB's last?

Hey guys, as some of you know i'm very new to this. I got my first set of ttqb's in the mail the other day from miggle, actually had 4 in total. I think i am down to 1 now. Not sure if i am pulling the arm back to far or what, but they keep breaking apart at the ankle. Plus when i pull the arm back it always bumps the handle on the back. Not sure if there is anything to do about that. I heard Tornado alley is making a Passing qb but cant find them for sale or anything so not sure if they are out. Any suggestions for making my ttqb's last longer?

Default Ttqb

Take it easy on the the pass. A quick flic is all you need aim and flic. Do not pull back all the way to pass just add some tension and go quick release is a must for it is plastic. Kickers and passers are rarely best when used for both have each as a specific player Kicker or QB only. You will get deeper wisdom to follow from some of the Qb masters out there so stay tuned to your post. Know this a TTQB will win or lose a game for you if or if not treated kindly Dont be hard on yourself for you will and must go through a few inorder to find your rythme. You are on your way. Once you get that TTQB that does it for you, be mindful that stress on the lower leg will change the degree of tension you can apply on a pass....' EZ does it"

#1. QB doesn't have a leg - take it off; the Kicker does!

#2. If you are right-handed then you need to bend the upright part of the handle to the right (looking at the back of the TTQB) enough so that IF you were to pull the QB back it wouldn't touch; then bend the handle itself to curve to the right instead of straight back. This will fit into your fingers better.

#3. Aim and flick, DON'T crank back rock left and right, up and back, crank back a lil more, look up, look around, crank back a lil more and then release and wonder why you missed!?!?!?!?!?!?! ROCK AND FIRE, BABY!!!

I'll try to take a visual tutorial before Sunday's game.

haha, thanks for the tips guys. My qb's were going down like they were playing the 85 bears or something. I'll have to practice some more with my new found information.

Here is a passing video I did promoting the MFCA passing tool. This is something I do from time to time. The techniques I use here are what I use in game action.

My QB, I have been using the same one for 38 years. Take a look at this Youtube video and see the quick strike and some stress put on the leg.

i have the old TTQB from the early games...these are made to absorbe the pressure of pulling the TTQB to pass.... send me a PM and I can see about getting you or anyone else one that will last a good while.

the current QB I use - I have been using and winning with it for over 5 or 6 years now........
