I've only 3 weeks into learning how to throw a disc. I did take a slow motion video, that I'm quite embarrassed to post because I can see a lot wrong with it. Anyway, what's some advise for just starting out throwing a backhand? I currently dont do a run up, because I'm working on form more than anything and have been told adding that to it would just confuse and make things worse for now. The few things I've noticed and have been told are:
1. When I throw I come up in my stance and don't shift weight forward
2. I don't always follow through when I throw (possibly because I dont do a run up and have momentum)
3. I bring my arm up and throw high (could be because of #2)
4. In my slow motion I noticed my disc isn't flat when I'm coming through (possible grip? wrist angle?)
What's some suggestions on starting out? I know practice practice practice, but is there some drills ya'll have done or steps to work on the throw? Basically trying to break it down, step by step so I dont think about 7 different things during my throw. Thanks
