Just got my DGN subscription in today and was feeling great about the season starter. Only to find out that its not covered this year. That sucks. Watching the Memorial has been a tradition for me and my friends.

So USDGC is not included in the normal subscription?

Does anyone know how many days is the billing interval for Disc Golf Network. I want to know if I'm be able to watch the USDGC for the same money if I subscribe today. The USDGC final is on October 8th.

I assume your referring to Bradley here. If you ignore his a bit edgy person you can see that he is clearly on a mission from teaching perspective. I see his provocative style as trying to shake up the field on purpose. Coaches often are persons. I'd probably not hire him if i was trying to go...

I'm wondering whats the purpose of this video. Are we supposed to get something out of it or is it just entertainment? In learning perspective it's like a 30 year old explaining how to ride a bike to a 4 year old. Everything about bicycling is obvious and automatic to someone who has been...

Thats why I dont understand why the pros make the same video over and over again. I'd really like to hear about the learning process rather than the same old beginner stuff repeated. No science or even common sense arguments nor experience based explanations for anything they say. And...

Is the video you just posted probably 100 times better than any of the disc golf forehand videos out there or am I just out of my mind? Shoulder-hip separation, shoulder level and collapsing into the brace. Wow, everything that dude said makes perfect sense. I plant way too open, my left...

Indeed. The problem isnt just disc golf, it just manifests on the course. If you are short fused and impatient in your everyday life how do you expect to be anything else on frisbee course? Meditation and mindfulness are great ways to learn about your thought patterns, triggers and reactions. A...

Its your expectations and most probably your energy and blood sugar levels that lead so such behaviour. It doesnt have to be a big adversity to get the snowball rolling. It's been scientifically proven that anger control is much harder when the blood sugar is low. Fatigue makes emotion control...

Thanks for your answers and time again. I'm afraid that I'm too stupid to understand even the simplified versions you provided. Plus not being a native english speaker wont help that at all :). Could not guess it would be that complex. At least now I remember why I lost interest in physics...

So where does the term arm speed come from? Clearly its not the thing you want to look for and so many people including me are trying too hard instead of a controlled movement that gets the job done better power and controlwise. Perhaps theres a ratio between lower arm speed and disc ejection...

Thank you for your detailed answer. Really refreshed some memories from way back, especially the classic Newton laws and the delta sign that represents change in velocity and time. Good times over 15 years ago. So how do you calculate the force and mass you need to resist if you know the length...

Yeah I think they do. But disc golf was not much of a thing back then here I Finland when I went to school

Okay so that sounds like a very complex thing :D. Maybe too complex for anyone to actually calculate it on a case. So basically the faster you accelerate it, the heavier it becomes? And if I read correctly along the lines, its just much easier for amateurs to make a slower acceleration to not...

I kinda knew this was coming because I could not state the question properly because I dont know physics too well. But everyone knows a disc will feel very heavy for a split second in a good throw and objects inside the car become heavier in a crash etc. Thats the phenomena I tried to describe...
