    Throwing 400ft RHBH and looking for tips

    Been working on what everyone has said for the last 2-3 weeks and have pushed my distance up to about 430-450 on average so I have already seen some improvement, but I still know there's more I can do. This drive here is the furthest I have ever driven a disc on flat ground; it went 470-475ft...

    Throwing 400ft RHBH and looking for tips

    Its hard for me to see that but I think you might be right. I did a (very unflattering) frame by frame that shows me pulling through to about the center of my chest but I think I am deviating from the line just before the release. Nonetheless I think modifying the backswing to keep an upright...

    Throwing 400ft RHBH and looking for tips

    Thanks for the link. What I notice is at the apex of the "backswing" the disc is out and away from his body and the disc is being pulled from outside inwards to the chest right before release. There is also a straight armed swinging motion to get the disc out and behind the body instead of a...

    Throwing 400ft RHBH and looking for tips

    That gravel was quite slick and I was slipping all over, but I definitely see your point about being flat footed. I've been looking at Nikko's and Avery's reachback lately, I've always assumed a big reach back helped them get their distance. I guess i'm just overdoing it? At what point in my...

    Throwing 400ft RHBH and looking for tips

    Here's a video of me driving 6 times with a slo-mo following each drive. The first 3 drives went ~375ft and the last 3, when I was warmed up a bit more, went ~420ft. For reference, the fence is 380ft away and I was throwing into a ~20km/hr headwind. The pink/orange discs are Teebirds, the yellow...

    4.00 star(s) My home course -Very well groomed -two sets of concrete tee pads for each hole -beautiful park -in the heart of the city -decent variety of shots -18 baskets - short tees and long tees play differently on most holes -Every teebox has a number marker and a map, and is really easy to navigate. On...

    Review by jungledonkey in course Qualicum Bay Resort DGC

    3.00 star(s) Fun course Overall it is a fun course. The first 8 holes are all shorter technical holes through trees. Starting with hole 9 things open up a lot. The designer tried their best to make the open shots interesting by utilizing elevation. Hole 9 was very long from the long tees and if you screw up...

    Review by jungledonkey in course Fir Meadows DGC

    3.00 star(s) Non-existant There was still one tonal left at the entrance. There is no course. The course no longer exists. There is a new development being put in. It would have been nice for locals to mention this before I made a road trip to play it. UPDATE I've played the course since it has been...

    My backhand form

    Here's a video of me throwing max D golf shots. The second one is me trying a heel pivot. I tend to turn over my discs when I do it and I'm suspecting it's from OAT. What can I do to improve? My max D on flat ground is around 375-400ft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwPKwPoQfHs
