Just a little background....
I started playing disc golf last May '09 and had no teacher or someone to point me in the correct direction. This usually spells disaster for the noob and it did for me. I started out throwing whatever I thought looked cool or sounded awesome. I bought drivers I wasn't capable of throwing yet and learned bad habits.
After educating myself through the interwebz I've learned the error of my ways. I then retooled my game and tried to unlearn my bad habits. Now I predominantly throw Gazelles, Teebirds, Comets, and putters. I ended up buying 5-10 of these discs to throw over and over in a field shaping lines. I feel like I have a good grasp on these discs and that my form has improved. I can throw a Comet ~330+ and a Gazelles ~380+ with several over 400'. I figured after getting consistent with these discs I'd be able to graduate to the faster discs and throw them well....wrong. I need help or someone to explain to me what changed. I guess videos of me throwing would help you help me...I should be posting some stuff on Youtube soon for you all to see.
I figured that I'm not the only person who has faced this issue before and I wanted some input from those that have had experience with this dilemma.
