    Get Me Away From A 300' Backhand!

    I guess I slacked off on the field work least year and let this thread die... Anyway it's been unseasonably warm and snow-free in New England as of late so it's back to the field for technique work. I got some feedback from sw22 in the Facebook group already but wanted to document where things...

    Get Me Away From A 300' Backhand!

    So I did some work on hitting the gas pedal today... Good news: - definitely hit some gas pedals, though still extending the rear knee - more centered and balanced rotation without tipping over front foot - somewhat naturally picked up better off-arm habits that resemble a swim move - starting...

    Get Me Away From A 300' Backhand!

    So I haven't actually managed to correctly apply any of the advice here yet, and my timing and footwork still suck, but I did manage to squeak out some easier distance by loosening up my upper body a bit with the Seppo reachback :D A couple Star Beast shots, measured 360ft flat no wind...

    Get Me Away From A 300' Backhand!

    Hershyzer and Door Frame it is - I'll revisit these over the weekend. This is hole 4 at Moose Mountain in Brookfield, NH. The course is pretty much a pitch and putt - this is one of the longer holes at 317' slightly downhill. Great practice spot though, and there's a longer tee behind it at...

    Get Me Away From A 300' Backhand!

    Yeah, absolutely. This is indirectly what I was referring to with the stride length issue; the rear foot gets turned away from the target a bit during the large x step, then a little more going into the plant. So I end up planting closed to the target but effectively still horsestanced, if that...

    Get Me Away From A 300' Backhand!

    Hi guys, I've been lurking on here a while and am a frequent poster on r/discgolf. I've posted a couple form checks on there but I figure it's about time I get a DGCR thread going with the experts! Some background: Typical Discs/Distances: golf, max Putters (Pure, Proxy, Envy): 220-240ft...

    Forehand Tutorial: How to Properly Lead with the Elbow

    These guys all have excellent forehand games, but what I think what sets Jerm's technique apart is the finesse game and the ability to work slower and more understable discs with confidence. Barsby is another good one for sure. His go-to is a beat Eagle if I recall correctly; you need...
