    Threw 350' for the first time.

    If you understand all of those parts of the throw, I have to imagine your strong arming. You don't actually "Throw" a disc golf disc. You whip it. Your body is like your arm, your upper arm is the handle of the whip, your forearm is the body of the whip, your wrist is the tip of the whip that...

    Preventing early release

    Several people addressed keeping your disc on the line, see disc golf monthly 94 David Feldburg explains this very well. He also covers grip. As you said you get the basic concept but when you have the disc in your hand firm up all the muscles in your fingers and palm(WITHOUT SQUEEZING). This...

    XCAL vs PD2

    Disc golf center still has C-PD2s at regular price. Guess I'll start with those since the window is so small on picking up C-line ones, and I do love destroyers.

    XCAL vs PD2

    I'm only throwing about 425 right now so I'm actually looking for the least stable of the 3.

    XCAL vs PD2

    If an Xcal has positive turn for an arm like Beto that is scary overstable.

    XCAL vs PD2

    Seriously? I hate it when they do that. I could try a Force their stamps are a little harder to remove before you dye them, but I could deal.

    What is your 2 favorite Drivers in your bag?

    Orion LF and I find myself skipping down to my Wasp instead of Teebird lately.

    XCAL vs PD2

    I just recently started "Half hitting". I used to use my destroyers for head winds but now they fly stable for me and turnover in a headwind. I need a new head wind driver and since Champion plastic is my favorite I'm looking at the XCAL and PD2. I normally use this chart to decide...

    Discmania Question

    In Discmania's video series they have an extreme distance episode. The guy who started the company says he is gonna use a jackal because even though it is a fairway driver it's glide is just that good. Avery Jenkins throws a blizzard boss 600ft, and he throws his jackal over 500, pretty amazing...

    Longer lasting Wizard

    I completely forgot about Vibram, some one has recommended them to me before for wooded courses.

    Longer lasting Wizard

    I've fallen in love with my G9 Wizards for shots off the Tee. Both of my home courses are heavily wooded and the G9 plastic is not the most durable. I got an HPP wizard but it's domey, making it less stable. The HPPs also feel shofter and it doesn't feel like the release is as clean. I am...

    Max dg line question

    1. Masters/Grandmasters outscore me all the time using nothing higher than a valk. 2. Leopards are an awesome disc to learn how to hyzer flip. 3. If you can throw a beast 320 a vulcan would probably go over 350 for you.

    General form issues?!

    If you throw a putter with a stablility of "1" and a 13 speed driver with a stablility of "1" the 13 speed driver will always fade more (finish left at the end) because all the weight is on the outside of the disc. A wizard or Aviar big bead will fly in a straight line and fade inches off the...

    right pec drill question

    Beato said in one of his posts (I can't remember which one now) that your arm should be straight, but your elbow should be slightly bent at the hit. This is to prevent hyperextension, which IMO is what happened. At the moment of release your whole arm AND shoulder should be firm. You allow your...
