Looks like you're quickly getting some pop! I like your patience and tempo in the swing.
You might be landing slightly too far back on the heel heading into the plant in throw 1 and your upper body is too behind (toward west/left of tee) of your foot in throw 2 so you got slightly jammed up. I think I also see the disc creeping back toward the camera a bit in your backswing, so you can probably get off the rear side a little more aggressively into the plant. Side of tee view/whole body in the frame would be a little easier to see now.
Too much stagger. Either stride straighter into plant or start x-step more diagonal walking back left to front right pad so the stagger happens from a straight stride but on the diagonal walk.
So basically too much distance between my feet east-west-wise?
Could you elaborate on the second alternative? Won't that alternative misdirect the force in the wrong direction?
What drill to work with? Herz?
X-stepping straight along 20 degree diagonal.
Love lurking your thread & form dev so 2 more cents here.
A little variability in how you stride is the most obvious thing to me. Looks like you get off your rear foot a little more instep than the toe in the first throw in the first vid. First vid second throw is looking pretty clean. In the second vid, 2nd throw you appear a little caught behind the plant stride/brace so your rear leg counterbalance height/swim move come a bit off axis.
So I might keep working the strides & tightening up the transition from the rear foot into the plant stride.
Showing you what I mean against the follow through position of you mirrored vs. some pros. Left panel of you from first vid is looking pretty good, right is where you're caught more behind the plant stride/brace from the second vid:
Hershyzer Drills. Hard to see from that camera angle, but looks like your front foot is leading your stride, instead of your hips/CoG. Your foot leads and then you try to drive too late. You can see your head drifting to the right thru the release instead of staying centered/balanced on front leg.
Your right foot is kicking the wall in hershyzer, instead of driving your butt cheek into wall.
Yes, head is drifting east.
