I'm having a debate with a friend over this concerning throwing a football.
I have two friends. We went out to throw catch some passes. They are both QBs. On like a 20 yard out route, Guy A hums that ball in there and I can hardly catch it, the velocity is so aggressive it hurts my hands. Guy B its not like that, its a softer throw with a bit of wobble and I have no trouble catching it. I told Guy B that Guy A has a much stronger arm than him and he disagreed, so he said let's have a contest to see who can throw the ball the FARTHEST. They both threw the ball 62 yards in the air. We measured it. That was their maximum distance.
Guy B thinks he proved his point that his arm is equally as strong as Guy A, but I said then Guy A has much more velocity, and he said that isn't possible because in order to throw the same maximum distance that means they have the same velocity. What do you guys think? Is there something in this equation we are missing?
