Hi everyone!
I'm back and ready to do more field practice. I took a break regarding field practice, we had the best summer in many years and I felt for playing and having fun vs. throwing in a soccer field. I probably have a lot of the same leaks as I did in the past. Now I want to become active again and fix my terrible form. I'm happy with my distance, it has improved a lot, but I'm not steady at all.
One thing that happens a lot, is that the disc is close to my stomach area. Sometimes it hits my stomach and change the angle, a total grip-lock. Mostly this happens when I'm trying to throw on a straight light, which makes me throw understable stuff on a hyzerflip line to prevent this. When I'm throwing anhyzers, it rarely happens.
I'm going back to throwing standstill for a while, trying to fix my issue and implement it in my run-up routine later.
Things that I think is the problem:
- I'm bending over instead of holding a straight line with my spine. When I'm throwing I feel like I'm holding a straight line. When I practice this inside my house without throwing, I'm holding a straight line. Whenever I get a disc in my hand and actually throw this changes.
- I might think that my reachback and pull line is forcing me to bend over the disc. I'm not sure about this. When I practice this inside without throwing a disc, it looks good I think. I consider buying PowerSnap Disc Golf Trainer. Anyone recommend this?
- There might be something wrong with my grip?
One day I think it is my footwork, one day I think it is my grip, and one day I think it is my pull line. I just don't have a clue and it makes me really uncertain.
Anyways I'm ready to try and fix this problem I've had for quite a while. I appreciate the help.
