Never saw that flick method before. When I was young, you had to hold the pencil/pen with one finger on the top against the paper, then by increasing pressure and tilting the angle it would eventually slip and draw your shot. Sometimes a very long shot. Was a fun game.

This is correct, flicking isn't involved

Wild way to hold a writing utensil.
