    Throwing 90m (295') - how to improve?

    Yeah, I think this is the exercise I need right now. And I can practice being on my toes while I am at it. Maybe it will add 10m when I get the hang of it and when I get the timing right. I will be back when this is fixed.

    Throwing 90m (295') - how to improve?

    Update and new record Long time since last post, so I want to come with an update. Last year I focused on playing disc golf when I had spare time (instead of practicing technique). Last winter and this winter, I threw with more of a walk up rather than a run-up, eliminating the hop in the...

    Heisman drill for disc golf

    Thanks for clearing things up. I don't stop the movements like Mr. Slingshot (let's just call him that now) does in the video, but do it slowly and take notice if things are correct, then I slowly continue to the turning part of the throw. I have found this helpful, and I focus on how the body...

    Heisman drill for disc golf

    This video has been out for a couple of weeks, but I don't think anyone has posted it here yet. I just want to ask the pros here what you think about this drill? Mr. Sling Shot talks about getting in the right position before the body turns, and then doing the heisman. I found this really...

    Start hip rotation by your left knee or arm?

    Seeing the light I have been really confused about the hip movement in the disc golf throw for a long time. I have of course been in the SW camp, but seeing a lot of videos of other coaches looking like they are "squishing the bug" made me doubt all of it. Who's right? After watching the video...

    Throwing 90m (295') - how to improve?

    Thanks for the reply! We actually talked about the double dragon drill during the practice. I can really feel the weight of the foot dragging me forward, which I don't feel in my actual throw. Practicing the hershyzer drill, kick the can and double dragon hopefully will sort things out. I also...

    Throwing 90m (295') - how to improve?

    Update september 2021 Hi! It's time for an update. My form is still quite similar, but I am throwing about 110m consistently whenever I want. I have not been practicing as much as I have wanted, because I have prioritizing playing. Been playing some tournaments and have been doing well. My...

    Pros vs Ams: Shoulder Rotation and Arm Depth

    Yeah, this is a good way of putting it. Load the springs (in the correct way), and let it go. This is some deep Sh--t! Seedlings and Navel, thanks for elaborating on the door frame drill, how to get use of it and what to feel! Interesting. Have to look more into this. I have not tested "the...

    Pros vs Ams: Shoulder Rotation and Arm Depth

    I tried to search for this in the forums, but did not find it. I think it deserves its own thread, though, because it shows what you all have been talking about so clearly. This was eye-opening for me. Sidewinder, this is what you mean by the arm being pulled taunt? If I understand it...

    Pros vs Ams: Shoulder Rotation and Arm Depth

    This video shows the difference in shoulder movement between a pro and an amateur ball golfer. The two GIFs show the differences in the movement. The blue gif is the pro and the red is the am. If there is one thing I have learned here, it is that ball golf technique is very similar to disc golf...

    What were your big lightbulb moments?

    This may be the same lightbulb moment as the post above, but I found out how to get the rear leg pointing sideways as opposed to backwards before the swing. I have tried to work with the lower leg for a long time, but the video below made me realize that the problem is in the hips. It is so...

    Throwing 90m (295') - how to improve?

    Thanks for the reply! But if I would listen to you before that throw, I would go 20m too far, so it was all part of the plan :thmbup: No, just kidding. You are absolutely right. Thanks for pointing it out. I have practiced the swim move in the living room, but not incorporated it in a real...

    Throwing 90m (295') - how to improve?

    Another question. I am planning to film myself and to some side-by-side comparisons with a pro. Who should I choose? I have been thinking about Aderhold or McBeth, since their form is so clean. Or maybe Lizotte.

    Throwing 90m (295') - how to improve?

    Hey I'm on a stream Hi! Planned to post a new video when the snow was gone, but it is still here. But, something cool happened. Today was the first weekly tournament arranged by my local disc golf club, and some guy actually streamed it on Twitch. Thought I could leave a link here. In the video...
