The point here isn’t when the hips rotate, where the arm is, etc etc
The point here is this.
The hip doesn’t just *rotate*
If it did, then there would be no point in planting perpendicular to the target, because that inhibits rotation of the hips.
Power does not come from the hips rotating. It comes from the weight of your butt down, mostly from the trail leg. Like pulling down a post.
Take it from me-I can throw 450 with terrible form. Got it videoed, wheeled off, etc etc.
It’s wrong form.
I’m coming over the top and not bracing properly.
Imagine you’re pulling down a post that’s directly in line with, in your case, your left arm that’s out in front of you. Now try and pull that post straight back on one leg with your arm. When you feel it through your heel and you’re using your butt and leg to pull, that’s the feel.
Now imagine instead of a post that’s a disc in your hand. Your back muscle pull the disc to your left as your arm swings out, and your trail leg”pulls” the disc, just like you pulling the post.
That’s the effortless feeling.
That’s the feeling of an effortless shot.
The arm simply acts to keep tension on and aim the disc, but it’s a pull-just like pulling a post out of the ground.
You can’t get much of any force pulling a post out of the ground by Simply spinning your hips without leveraging your trail side against the post.
