Why Throws Pro is Redefining Track and Field Equipment
In throwing events, the smallest details can decide the biggest outcomes. The right discus grip, the right rim weight, the right hammer wire length—it all adds up. That’s where Throws Pro has emerged as more than just a retailer. It’s become the go-to hub for athletes and coaches who take performance seriously, from high school fields to Olympic stadiums.
The Coach Behind the Company
Throws Pro’s edge comes from the man behind the brand: Scott Cappos. With 25 years coaching in the Big Ten at Iowa and Nebraska and a career spent training athletes at every level, Cappos brings an insider’s perspective few businesses can match. He’s not just selling equipment—he’s lived it, taught it, and continues to coach elite athletes chasing gold.
That’s what makes Throws Pro different. Every product recommendation, every guide, every customer interaction comes from practical, lived expertise.
Trusted by America’s Top Programs
Numbers tell the story: over 80% of Power 4 schools choose Throws Pro. These programs don’t compromise when it comes to quality—they compete for championships. Their trust signals a level of reliability and expertise that few can claim.
But Throws Pro isn’t only for collegiate powerhouses. Thousands of high schools across the country rely on its equipment and guidance, ensuring the next generation of athletes is prepared with the right tools from the very first throw.
Building Knowledge, Not Just Sales
ThrowsPro has taken on a role beyond outfitting athletes: it’s become a source of education. Partnerships with the Throw Big Throw Far Podcast and the Thrower X platform turn complex equipment choices into clear answers for athletes and coaches.
Want to know which shot diameter works best for smaller hands? Or how a 75% rim-weight discus flies differently than an 85%? ThrowsPro makes those answers accessible because they’ve lived those decisions on the field.
Partnerships with the Best in the World
As a Certified GOLD Gill Dealer, ThrowsPro connects athletes with the world’s top brands: Polanik, Nordic, Nishi, Gill, Nemeth, Dominator, Fibersport, Walshot, and Thrower X. These aren’t just names on a catalog—they’re the same implements seen at championships around the globe.
Giving Back to the Sport
Throws Pro’s role in the throwing world doesn’t stop at the checkout page. They sponsor elite competitions like the World Invitational, support organizations such as the Ironwood Pro Throws Club, and provide equipment for the World Police and Fire Games, Wounded Warrior Games, and Special Olympics.
Personal Service, Proven Value
At a time when most online retailers are faceless, ThrowsPro stands out for keeping it personal. Customers get access to real coaching expertise, not just a customer service script. And with a lowest-price guarantee, they prove you don’t have to sacrifice value for expertise.
More Than a Retailer
Throws Pro has created something rare: a company that serves everyone from Olympic medalists to high school beginners with the same level of care and expertise. They’ve earned trust through quality, built credibility through education, and shown commitment through community support.
In a crowded market, ThrowsPro isn’t just another vendor. It’s a partner in performance—a company woven into the very fabric of the throwing community.
