    Grip pressure incident

    I always try to. But when my fingers slipped off accidentally, it surprised me and my entire focus at that point became pinch hard with the rest of my fingers.

    Grip pressure incident

    Something interesting happened today. I was going for a hyzer flip and it turned out to be a huge anhyzer. That's not the interesting part though. The interesting part is during my run up as I swung my arm back and the disc started to move forward I relaxed my grip and my last two fingers (pinky...

    Standing throws

    In that video, when he is braced against the front, his front shoulder looks high. Is that because he is doing a downswing as opposed to how we swing in disc golf? Or is it just the angle? I've been watching so many shawn clement videos that, that part may have seeped into my brain at some point...

    Standing throws

    Ahhhh, makes sense. So many things to remember in such a quick motion. I will work on keeping my front shoulder down, bringing in my off arm, using my rear foot to shift behind me instead of in front, extending the disc away from my core, and maintaining my spine position. One quick note, I...

    Help with the backhand technique

    I made a quick picture that may help you understand what sidewinder22 and Mocheez are telling you. http://i.imgur.com/nZZtW7K.jpg

    Standing throws

    Thanks, I think part of the shoulder problem is as I'm using my rear foot to help shove my hip forward to a braced position, it's tilting my spine towards the back of tee and causing my front shoulder to rise if that makes sense. Do you have any tips for that?

    Standing throws

    Thank you! Those still photos and diagrams are extremely useful and give me a good idea of what you are talking about now. So to summarize... 1. I need to keep my shoulder more closed through the pivot, it seems I'm opening it too early? I also need to keep my front shoulder down, at least so...

    Standing throws

    Thanks, I've watched that video quite a few times before. I've tried mimicking Will's form but the guy is gumby. All legs and arms, lol. I'll keep working on my weight shift, it's what I've been trying to focus on with my focus on bracing and using the rear foot.

    Standing throws

    Focusing on a few things right now. Trying to brace and stop my body moving forward and also working on pushing off with the rear foot and keeping the heel moving forward ahead of the toes. Help and critique are appreciated, thank you. ZM2_74rF8U8 KnmSDCbX2bE ZRyUZ-UJcjE

    Holding to the Hit and Horse Stance

    Holy crap this thread has clarified something I've been missing, at least if I'm understanding it correctly. I think I understand where HUB was coming from. It seemed like he was was focused on the knee drop and the hip turn but sw22 was pointing out that it all starts at the ground, where the...

    Form critique and distance help please

    Ok, I've been watching more slow motion videos carefully and I just noticed something! I'm amazed I didn't see this before. I noticed that the pros consistently have all their weight on the front foot and their rear foot has come up before the disc has even passed the middle of the chest. Does...

    Form critique and distance help please

    Thank you for the feedback! I'll work in shortening my stance. It feels like my momentum might pull me off balance if it's too narrow and it feels harder to brace? How wide should my stance be about? Can you elaborate a little more on the rear foot? I'm having a hard to visualizing what my...

    Here's my drive - how can I improve?

    Took me awhile in the beginning to realize this, but the heel pivot will happen naturally as a consequence of planting your foot heel down, shifting your weight, and pivoting your hip. You don't really have to consciously do it. If you want my .02, I'd advise you to slow down and build your...
