I'll preach this forever now that I've seen what it unlocks: protect the extension at all costs. It's by far the easiest access to leverage. Hips and knees and all that are a smaller percentage of the force than the basic mechanism of leveraging the disc from the right pec to the hit.
Most players are so far out of balance and their body is in the way that they can't get extension or create a power pocket.HyzerUniBomber said:I'll preach this forever now that I've seen what it unlocks: protect the extension at all costs.

There isn't, really. It's a personal thing and doesn't have much, if any, bearing on what happens. Everyone develops their quirks, perhaps for some it helps them keep their sense of space and shoulder turn as well as the plane the disc is on. I know for me it felt really weird to keep my off arm out of the way. The problem is that if you don't get that cradling arm out of the way ASAP when you start to turn, then you will lose a lot of speed on that turn. Best to stick to basics until you get it down well.
HUB are you Blake T in disguise?

well, i went to my local short course today and practiced a round throwing slow and hit a 182ft ace with my first throw, hit 2 baskets and tickled the chains on another
I also hit an ace this weekend after working on the elbow smack drill and slowing things way down...
Guys, that is FREAKING AWESOME!!!! Words can't even describe how stoked I am for you. I had these moments in the field where I'd felt my way into that motion of effortless accuracy and it was like, "this is insanity! I can hit a basket at 245' at will! I gotta understand this! WHAT IS IT?!"

I really think that you gain an absurd amount of accuracy because you have all this time during a slow back-swing to make sure the disc is on the right angle. There's no moving the disc around to get it adjusted, your shoulder's not bouncing around, head is quiet.
