I think you've got to be able to see form before you can learn. I think every advance I've made is because I've been able to perceive something that I was previously looking at but couldn't really see. Part of the issue I have is having to run down so many red herring tips that are ultimately...

I've stopped messing with UDisc and only track my scores on sanctioned league and tournaments. What a relief.

Jawbreaker breaks in to a more neutral disc pretty quickly, which gives it more distance. I like the feel of that plastic, too. Pair that with a Z and it's an interesting pair—very different flights, same disc. I've recently added a lighter Halo Roc3, which is actually nice and flat. That will...

It's amazing to me how much I lean on my Jawbreaker Zone for forehand ups and short wooded drives. I have to make myself work with backhand ups or risk losing my touch.

mine started delaminating on the layers around the top of the toe box. Glueing them back down was a mistake as that cause the whole fabric to start to rip from the extra friction I loved the feel

I've wondered if there's a phase aspect to any OAT or distortion of the disc where it may wobble, return to true, then express the wobble again—like the oat expresses in waves of stored energy. I wonder if this has anything to do with when a disc turns. Hard to know with variable wind...

Cool to have a course close by.

I spend more on tournaments and league than discs year over year.

Weren't discs like $10 to $12 when I was buying them out of trunks in early eighties? I can't remember. Asking for a friend.

Smooth, clean hyzer with an understable disc will be more stable. Wind obv., but practicing keeping a flippy disc on hyzer is informative and beneficial from my perspective. You can almost craft any shot with an understable disc, it's just harder, and the wind might take some of those shots...

Been driving out to Royalton Ravine, which has to be the best course in this area. Did OK. Takes me a while to learn the holes and shots. Doing a bit better at this throwing downhill. Foraged some ramps.

Maybe it's that, or they accommodate right and left hand throwers by recording a +/- data point.

I'm definitely building new muscle and muscle memory as I go, but from the first times I filmed myself I recognize a primary issue is starting to uncoil before establishing brace. I don't watch Trebuchet enough to characterize his methods or contrast those with any other coach. I do recognize...
