    Help with form please

    I’m not a far thrower, that’s for sure. I’ve never really measured though. I also play alone, as nobody I know plays in my area. This game is so hard! Thank you both for the tips. Sidewinder, I’m a bit confused about moving around the door frame. Is this a practice drill to eliminate rounding?

    Help with form please

    Hello all, I’m just getting back into disc golf after a couple year break. I’ve been wildly inconsistent, throwing extremely far right and left. From what I’ve read online, it seems that I’m struggling with rounding. I’ve been trying to work on moving the disc on a straight line. Please let me...

    Why to the right?!?!?

    Thank you for all of your replies, great stuff! I've realized I was releasing late. I've since changed my power grip just a bit, and the problem seems to be fixed. Thx again for all of your wisdom!

    Why to the right?!?!?

    So Saturday I was throwing nice and straight. Today all of a sudden, I am throwing wildly to the right! I feel like I am doing the exact same thing as I was Saturday as far as my form and release go, but obviously something isn't right. I guess I am releasing late? If so, how do I fix it?? so...

    Disc Golf Rangefinder

    I just did this today in the soccer fields. Mine measures in yards so I just converted to feet in my head. Mine was able to pinpoint the disc and give me an accurate reading. I say go for it!

    How far should I be throwing???

    Went out to the soccer fields today to throw my elite-z buzz, and my x-stratus. I was consistently throwing the buzzz between 180-200 feet. With the other I was throwing about 210-225 with one going for 275 (no idea how I did that one!). I am a true beginner, but practicing hard to progress my...

    Beginner's question

    I guess it's flying about 100 feet or so before it fades to the left. I'm not trying to throw for distance right now, so no run up yet.

    Beginner's question

    Hey guys, True beginner here. I've played maybe five rounds total, but I throw nearly everyday out in the yard. I've noticed that most of my throws go straight for a good bit, then at the end fade off a little to the left. Is this normal? The disc I've been throwing the most is a buzzz. Should...

    Just started playing this wonderful game last month. I'm looking to hit up some of these great East Texas courses. Also interested in meeting some new players in the area, since none of my friends play disc golf. I have only played a few times so far and I'm falling in love with the sport! Eager...
