    [Westside] Prince- overstable distance driver

    Their numbers are so far off that it doesn't fit too terribly in their line up. The War Horse is (I think) oop, or at least hard to find, and the Adder is way domier and chunkier. The Giant is closer to a Boss IRRC and the Sorcerer is flippy, like a Bolt or Katana, but with a thinner rim. Based...

    [DGA] All things DGA thread.

    I'm relatively new to DGA (had a few tosses with Hurricanes and Pipelines back in the day) and am really impressed with their mids in particular. I picked up a Vortex in the used bin and it flew really great! But after a tragic loss of that disc (threw it about 20ft up in the middle of a...

    First time form check

    Checking in after a few months of practicing. I've been taking videos of my lefty form and practicing as much as my schedule allows and I'm excited to be making good progress. I got out today at a local course where the longest hole is about 340. I was able to get out to about 300-320'...

    [Discraft] Comet love?

    I guess I've never thought of the Comet as a similar slot/disc to a beat in KC but the more I think about it, this makes a lot of sense. I'll probably always keep a thrashed DX Roc in the bag for big turning shots, but the Comet will probably be a workhorse for me.

    [Discraft] Comet love?

    Once my elbow is better, this is the plan for me. This is one of the reasons I really enjoy DX Rocs; they're a bit more OS obviously, but the do hold lines really well being a 4 speed. I know the Roc/Comet combo is coveted. I've been really liking the Jay from Innova, might pair that with the...

    [Discraft] Comet love?

    I miss Rolling Hills, I moved from Michigan to Wisconsin a couple years ago and miss all the good golf. Still good golf here, but all of my aces are in Michigan haha As a general comment, I'm learning lefty golf to let my right elbow rest and picked up a Comet a while back. It's a little stable...

    [Millennium] OLF Mega Thread

    I keep seeing the Era being mentioned for a perfect control driver that is less os than a Thunderbird and that gets about as much distance as the Wraith. Isn't that just the OLF? In my limited testing, that's basically what my QOLF is. (I'm sure the Era is a great disc, just interesting to see...

    First time form check

    I was able to get out for a round recently and threw everything but putts lefty. Accuracy is still getting there, but I was getting the Buzzz and Comets out to 240-260'ish, which all things considered I'm happy with. Other than a sore shoulder and chest (definitely not bad pain, just using...

    First time form check

    1 and 2. Got it, I'll work on integrating the swing and step more as I get closer to an "actual" throw. I didn't realize the little step was a literal suggestion but more of a different way of thinking about the shifting weight. I will certainly work that into the routine. This would be to start...

    First time form check

    1. Swing is feeling better and I'm getting more consistent while thinking less. Weight shifting is making more sense, a revisit to the golf swing helped me at least conceptually. 2. In other news, I went to the field for a while yesterday to try and develop my lefty throw while my right elbow...

    [Westside] Prince- overstable distance driver

    Another Round posted a video of the new Westside Prince. Looks like a Matty-O disc (did he help design it? or perhaps just a tour series/signature disc?) that fills a big gap in Westside's line up. Looks to be like a Destroyer/DD3 type disc.

    First time form check

    Alright, today I wore shoes, changed my position in the living room, but have the same floor unfortunately.

    First time form check

    Yeah, our house is pretty tiny, I'll try to find a better space or at the very least put on shoes. Now that I can feel the plant/shift a little more solidly, I'll focus on the upper body and centering my body.

    First time form check

    My focus for this drill today was feeling like I was falling into the can crush. Like Brychanus mentioned, drifting toward the target in the reach back, and like biglefty mentioned, getting the heel down before rotating. My arm feels like it's being pulled through from my rotation rather than...

    Par 5’s are good for the game.

    One of the Jomez guys made a comment about this in a commentary about how in traditional golf, par 5s are more scoreable, where in disc golf they're typically harder. I think at least in the woods, longer means more challenging despite the ability to chop up the hole into smaller bit-sized...

    Par 5’s are good for the game.

    I agree with this. There can be hard courses that aren't on the pro tour and that's great, actually. If the par 5 in question was the only one in a 300'-and-under park course, sure it would be out of place. But if the course has a good mix of shots and distances, there can be the one hard hole...

    First time form check

    I answered my own question- does this look better?

    First time form check

    Here's a crush the can drill from earlier today. I noticed when I swing through as if I'm throwing I tend to lean back. I think my torso needs to stay a little more vertical, right?

    the1DiscChallenge ITB

    Great thoughts, I might try to find a premium Comet and pair it with my beat up Roc for now. It's been years since I threw a River but I remember them being really fun. I'm also realizing that I should realistically be discing/stability-ing down because my current bag is all a little too OS for...

    the1DiscChallenge ITB

    Noticed some elbow pain the last few field sessions and rounds, so I'm taking a bit of time off. But in the meantime, I need some serious form work. I'm going to pick up a couple discs to toss that will be much easier to throw while I recover/build good form habits. Thinking about a: Glitch...
