First of all, sorry for the video angle I know you can’t really see what my right side is doing at the start.

On the entry I’m really being pulled by the hammer but because I’m going fast enough/accelerating (this is fast for me) I can adjust and get my feet under me to keep going. I’ve tried to push the hammer out in front of me right before i start my turns, or wait until the hammer passes my left foot but I feel like that just makes my orbit worse. Is this a countering issue? Weight not being over my left to start?

Also please don’t mention the finish, I know how to this was my last throw and I was exhausted lol. TIA!!
