I'm currently re-learning to throw after a decade or so layoff from the game. I learned after a few years of trial and error playing ball golf, that all that matters is how the club comes into the ball at impact, and the 18 or so inches post impact. There are endless ways to get there, but if you look at any tour pro, that 2-3 foot impact window looks identical.
Is the same true in disc golf? Is all that matters is the disc gets to center chest with the hand on the outside (9:00 position), elbow up and pointing forward, ready to drive (facing 12:00), and the arm extends to about 10:00 for release, with the hand moving from 9:00 to 3:00 around the disc?
If that's really all there is, then I need to completely start over, just working on that (Beato drill), and very slowly and gradually adding more momentum to that action (brace, hips, x-step).
I want to start playing in tournaments in the spring. Is this the thing to focus on?
