Just watched the videos and thought I'd share some initial takeaways. 1. Brian is a dead ringer for Coach K. 2. That's where slowplastic has been! 3. "The method" aka the rear thigh turn reminds me somewhat of what Mike Maves is showing in his navel video (I'd link it but can't find it. He has...

Round 2 with a few new additions. Purchased a lightly used E proxy and buddy lent me three drivers to try out. 1. E Proxy ~170g - Dead nuts straight for the most part. Goes for days. Will this season into a flip and hold turn disc? If so, how long in y'all's experience? 2. Neutron Virus 174g -...

I got it second hand on the Reddit exchange page. It’s a lab second that I’m assuming is cosmic.

Decided to try some axiom/mvp after feeling a couple of their molds in the store recently and being very impressed with the feel and apparent manufacturing quality. I dig the flatness in slower molds and they have it consistently it seems. Bought a new pyro and a 5 pack of throwers off of...

Call me old school, but a pro wraith with two weeks-ish of season on it will hang with just about anything. Look for mild dome if you can.

I'm in the area for a work trip and I have an afternoon to get a round in. I'm equal parts distance to Huntington Beach course and La Mirada. Which one should I play? Any locals around here?

Makes sense. What I liked about it in particular was the visual aid with the PVC or whatever implement he used. Similar to ride the bull with the pool cue but shorter - so it helped me with some pretty immediate feedback wrt orienting the spine on either leg. It was pretty eye opening, or at...

Ok this concept is starting to make sense. How do you like this for side bend/tilt? He goes into some hip depth/butt wipe as well around 7m in.

Many thanks. For clarity’s sake, was this in response to my most recent vid? Reason I ask is you mention the pendulum and I’ve used a pendulum style throw in past recent videos. But you also reference the pendulum momentum in general so just wanted to be sure.

I'm starting to think that my previous cross step was too long and perhaps throwing off rear leg balance. Tried a more vertical little hop today and really focused on keeping my mass inside of my rear foot (Northward). Also was thinking of my rear leg almost as a pole vault pole (but less...

Not a critique, merely an observation: Looks like you're bending over a good bit out of the backswing/in to the plant - almost like you're squatting into the rear leg/sending the ass back somewhat. But it's hard to say because your rear knee doesn't seem to flex much. Again, just an observation...

Tried a couple things yesterday. I notice no cosmetic changes mechanics-wise, however, adding a little hop did yield about 10% more distance with much less input effort. Issues still persist with posture and balance, so rear leg balance will continue to be my focus before I worry about...

Swung a 15lb kettlebell today. Pretty enlightening. You'll see the momentum 'toss me around like a rag doll' then you'll see my try to mitigate that (probably to little avail). What this did teach me is that the brace is way more active than I thought, or at least than how I was...

Dumping a few clips from today's session. Things are generally all out of whack. Need to figure out this rear leg pronto as my plant side joints are starting to feel fatigue. If any of you fellas want to trade my cash for your coaching via zoom or otherwise, drop me a DM. I tend to struggle...

Back with a quick DD attempt. On the first toss out of it, the shoulders did seem to settle a bit more into a natural hyzer orientation. Still looks like I'm shifting more in front than behind, however, and there's perhaps some shoulder collapse.
