Instead of learning how to throw a perfect spiral, let’s see if we can understand the physics behind a perfect football throw.

There are a few principles at work in a flying football, like gyroscopic precession and parabolic motion. Looking back to some basic physics classes, we can understand that the way a ball flies depends on the launch angle and the speed it is thrown at. However, you can throw a football as hard as you want, that doesn’t guarantee that it will fly in a perfect spiral. In order to get a football to fly perfectly, we have to be a little more concerned with inducing gyroscopic precession.
