Whoops - yes 90 degrees. Good catch. Will amend post. Here's a sketch. Not sure why the image flipped between image-taking-device and online filehosting site, but crane your neck, I suppose. The general idea is from advanced sprinting theory: most of the "work" of positioning the leg - i.e...

Whoops, the thread title was supposed to be Simple Weight Shift Exercise Super Secret Weight Shift Technique - Do This One Thing to Get Big D! Are you a longtime forum-reader-form-tinkerer who has grown tired of the onslaught of hand-cue debate underpinned by the squabbling of internet...
Lol at the "we've done it" dude, but all time great disc golf forum repartee in "If your theories never make it off DGCR to a disc in the air..."
You misunderstand the throw in its discrete parts because you are blinded by the total system, which is, of course, a burning bush. Here's a test...
Real talk, big dawg. Similar phenomenon with the Chris Taylor talk about golf swing/standstill being fundamentally different than a disc golf x-move because of "force couples" created by two limbs contacting ground vs. one. Similar phenomenon with the horizontal vs. vertical force debates. Why...
It's a dinker distance-wise, but the challenge of landing your shot on the ridged-green is pretty fun. Though, the mayapples have made it easier to land by being fleshy enough to limit additional ground skip. For whatever reason, the design has produced a bunch of shot-selection fiddling from...
For sure is frustrating, especially when already answered questions chew up your limited event-day time. We've had to do things like gatekeep the PDGA Live scorecard password to a player meeting announcement to prevent players from skipping the MANDATORY player meeting. I've included things like...
Mayapples on disc golf greens, captured on May 1st. Can't recall seeing them this close to equipment before. Course isn't open to the public yet, so less traffic to tramp 'em down.
"Use" DiscGolfScene: from the tournament manager view, click emails (subsection of registration). There's a few settings that can be toggled. Click on one of the green boxes that says "Email this list", and DiscGolfScene ports/formats the information to for your particular email service - the...

I'd confirm w/ Camp Cullom before stopping that they're open for play. Wabash Disc Golf Club hosted CC's annual spring event Beat the Nettles Doubles a couple weeks ago, but I'm not sure if that means it's open for the season yet or not.
Private course bagging opportunity: we're installing a...
Matt Bell mention: I swear he tosses/spins the disc in his hand as part of his routine when stepping up to/lining up a putt. He's definitely an expert Frisbee fidgeter. Somebody's got a clip. New advice tactic: what can putting grip teach us about driving grip?
Neil: you've missed the point. No prescription was written for palm placement.
Here's a corollary: anybody who has spent time around really good Frisbee players has also surely observed how much they seem to love holding, handling, flipping, spinning, tossing, or playing with a disc in hand...
Shoot, now that's a reasonable freakin' analysis. "Bill Rawls, you are a reasonable fucking guy."
Neil: the most important grip factor is how it works within the greater biomechanical system to balance/counter the weight/geometry of the tool being wielded. Here's the slowplastic form thread...
Excellent read. Thanks for linking that here. Sidenote: article author Kevin Foster is the reason the Jan Zelezny javelin throw gif gets posted here so often.
The notion that there is something fundamentally different going on in a standstill vs. regular throw because of "force couples" and...
What's up, feller. I haven't been following the nose angle debate much, so finally watched the video rustlin' everybody's jammies around here.
"This tip that Josh gave me. First and foremost, Josh is the one that came up with this verbal cue for throwing nose down."
First question, which is...
