    Women’s Backhand

    It’s been a while! It looks like my wrist pops up for a second, I’m seriously trying to not have that happen but it still happens—any ideas? I believe I may be turning my shoulders early and I’m slightly overtop. Thanks for your help! https://youtube.com/shorts/4isNWy0tR9M?feature=share...

    Dingle Arm to Elbow Bend

    Yes. Lower arm lags. I guess it's kind of wide rail-like. Would it be worth trying to keep that timing? Should I try to increase the elbow bend or just let the lag happen? I historically have trouble getting my weight shift to happen completely before my swing. If this lag is correct, maybe...

    Dingle Arm to Elbow Bend

    You've got the right idea sidewinder. I kind of place the disc and my arm where I would theoretically "release" with my arm around 160 ish degrees. It's definitely not 90 degrees. I had read that the upper arm shouldn't really move much and it should hold an angle around 100-160 maybe.

    Dingle Arm to Elbow Bend

    I've been out of commission for 2 months due to a knee injury. Went out to toss the other day and my arm disc alignment was all out of wack. Discs would come out nose up with tons of hyzer--kind of like a newbie. So I tried aligning my disc and arm in front of me the way I wanted it to release...

    Questioning my forehand alignment and grip

    Where is the pinch pressure?

    The "Pull Through"

    I thought the "wrap" was supposed to be unconscious and also due to passive movements. I believe others have said you should try not to bend in your wrist at all (at least not on purpose). Can anyone clarify?

    Grip Pressure Point

    I have recently decided to further investigate grip within my form. I have tried to read the following link's page extensively to really figure grip out. https://www.discgolfreview.com/resources/articles/gripittoripit.shtml However, the article seems to contradict some things I have heard...

    Backhand form

    Okay. So. Let me know if these look okay or terrible: One Leg drill. I see that I happened to swing high to low here, but I was tired and just wanted to see if things were kind of right. gmtYtpRWTMU This is closed shoulder and one leg. I should probably just do closed shoulder and post...

    Backhand form

    I guess I'm wondering if it's an arm problem or a weight shift problem....

    Backhand form

    What are people's thoughts on keeping your wrist down/straight. One problem that I can't seem to get rid of is my wrist bending up and I don't keep the disc on a flat plane during the pull. I can move my arm and disc slowly and keep the disc flat for the whole pull, but if I go back to throwing...

    Backhand form

    I'm back on the improving bits and pieces...little by little. I worked on keeping my rear heel up and off the ground. I've also developed a plan to keep my rear arm in, grabbing my shirt/vest. I bet I am still having trouble with spinning out and drifting left. Let me know. HnIdQI1BO1o

    Backhand form

    It's been a few weeks since I've been able to toss so there are kinks back in my form. What I am curious about though is whether or not I have "fixed" my body sway to the left. Otherwise, during this swing I go offline, bringing the disc up in my pull through, slight nose up release, and rear...

    Backhand form

    Another drill question. The one leg drill. I've tried it. It feels super weird and weak. Should I video myself trying or just stick with working on the clement drill I recorded myself trying?

    Backhand form

    Tried to stay on my toes a bit more. It looks like I'm falling over top, likely due to my seeming inability to get braces on the front leg before starting to rotate. However, my back leg appears to be exaggeratedly pushing forward and not spinning out. Wasn't able to shorten my final stride...
