    Durable minimalist/barefoot/zero drop shoes

    From my experience Vivobarefoot have way better durability than Merrell and Xero (haven't really tried any other minimalist brands for disc golf). In the summer I like the Primus Trail FG and for winter the Tracker boot. They also have the Magna for something inbetween a boot and shoe. They are...

    [Recommend] Looking for slightly more overstable Envy

    The one Proton Envy I have is a lot more overstable than the ten or so other envies I've had.

    putting finger pressure

    Try different grips while you're experimenting with finger pressure. I changed my putting grip from a fan grip on the flight plate to a stacked fan grip on the rim and instantly got more power and control.

    Leverage & Centrifugal Force are Sideways

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try doing the Hammer Throw Drill and the Door Frame Drills to try and get another feel before I go to the field again. When I've gotten just a bit further on my own I'll put up a video. I was really surprised to read that the javelin has been thrown with a spinning...

    Leverage & Centrifugal Force are Sideways

    I've been doing fieldwork and videoing myself for a couple of months trying to fix issues with pulling too close to the body, releasing in front of the body and opening the shoulders too early. I just haven't been able to work out these kinks. While reading your post it occured to me that I've...

    Any flick putters out there?

    I've been experimenting some with throwing overhead upside down forehand shots for short putts. I'm just as consistent within 20ft or so as with my normal push putt. I use my regular forehand grip and hold the disc in a 20-30 degree angle just in front of my forehead. The thing that seems to...

    Form critique

    Thanks guys! It makes perfectly good sense what you're saying. I think the camera angle makes the shoulder rotation look even worse than it is, but I will just have to both correct my form and the camera guy for next time hah. Leading more with the elbow could posibly also improve on nose...

    Form critique

    Really it's anywhere but the distance department where my troubles lie in shooting a decent round of disc golf. But still I can obviously improve if not just for some added distance then more for getting my form down just right and posibly improving my consistency. It's difficult for me to...

    How long should I throw a highspeed driver if I throw speed 7-9 drivers 410-425 feet?

    Can someone explain me how you throw a high shot nose down? To me a high shot logically needs to be thrown slightly nose up. There's something I'm missing here.
