Just a quick update today guys.
Got out of the house early this morning wanted to beat the sun heat today. Did those drills the elephant walk one was worried that I was anticipating the step/throw/ follow through. Probably needs some more work, but had a chance to experiment with the other drills I found yesterday as well.
Checked the footage and didn't see much difference however I left the field ran some errands and tried to think about body position and how to get the shoulder down more.
Went back out and felt like I finally found a bit more leverage on the elbow getting it through and out and really feeling that whip at the end of my fingers on release. It felt kind of weird reminded me of watching Eric Oakley how he had that low to high reach back but swinging the disc down over my toes really got my spine over my rear hip and deeper shoulder rotation even though it didn't really feel like I was rotated over my hips together as I thought was how it went.
Then pulling through tried to get the lead shoulder down as much as I thought needed (I still think it looks a bit high in the video) and pulling through.
However after a half hour of spinning on my heel last night in front of the mirror I can see that needs extra attention and my stance here at least is dead up and down peg leg with no bend until I start the backswing. Also the follow through on that leg still being up and down is atrocious but I can work on those two items unless I need more attention to something else swing wise.
Thanks for the help and if I'm way off on this please let me know
