    Finally figured "it" out...

    Just got back on the course recently after a very slow winter (mostly due to snow and cold weather). Anyway...probably have about 5 rounds under my belt and was practicing at a short 12 hole course near my home the other day when I think it clicked. It was kind of serendipitous in that I was...

    Putting like feldberg "no spin"?

    Ha! That's pretty funny. Didn't expect the man himself to jump on this thread. :D I know that Feldberg and Nikko at least putt with their finger on the bead. Everything else I've said on this thread is still applicable and has been a big help to my putting game.

    Putting like feldberg "no spin"?

    McBeth and Schultz putt with their index finger on the bead. Your index finger should run along the rim of the disc with the tip tucked under the disc on the bead. The first horizontal line on your finger as you move down from the tip is the part on the bead. You need to fan out your fingers...

    Putting like feldberg "no spin"?

    nope. Thank you. Completely agree about the routine. Practice makes perfect. You want to get to the point where everything is really muscle memory. That way when you are on the course you are simply putting and not trying to remember 10 different things to do at once. Agreed. No one...

    Putting like feldberg "no spin"?

    I have been experimenting with a new putting style after being way too inconsistent for my tastes. I spent a lot of time watching Nikko, Feldberg and Shusterick. All of them are very good putters and do things very similarly, but with their own unique take. The frusterating thing is that none...

    Loosening your grip

    Thought I would share. I have been dealing with accuracy issues (specifically throwing straight down narrow fairways) for most of the summer. However the last few times I've gone out on the course I've really loosened up my grip and it has made a huge difference in my game. Just like with a...

    [Question] Good Forehand Disc to Learn With?

    My main mids are Rocs...in fact i'm one of those "a roc for every midrange shot kind of guy" with dx and kc-pro molds in various stages of wear. Yeah...i think my problem is technique vs not having the correct disc. That is going to be my goal this winter once we set the clocks back and start...

    [Question] Good Forehand Disc to Learn With?

    Forehand shots have always been a hole in my game. Never been able to quite master the technique. What is a good all around Forehand Disc to learn with? Not really too concerned with throwing it a long distance yet, but just need to find something I can consistently use and get better with...

    Should I switch to heavier discs?

    I have been playing for about 10 months and have almost exclusively 150g DX plastic. The reasoning for this is because I heard it was better to start with lighter discs to develop form. About 3-4 months in I was really doing well. Had a good snap and discs were going exactly where I wanted...

    [Innova] Skeeter vs Mako

    Thanks for the feedback Fwiw...both my roc and stingray are dx 150 class. Might just start with a skeeter considering its $8, although it might become an issue if it beats in too understable considering i play mostly woods courses

    [Innova] Skeeter vs Mako

    I had a Mako last year and I really liked it, unfortunately I lost it at some point this winter. Looking to replace it with a midrange disc that falls somewhere between my Roc and Stingray. Ideally something I can use for those long and straight tunnel shots. I would be happy to bring another...

    Disc Golf Basket

    Likewise. Should be able to pick one up for no more than $120. Super light, but reliable. My second recommendation would be the Innova Skillshot. Also a great basket, but 25 lbs vs 13 lbs for the Traveler

    Cold weather Golf. HELP!

    I live in CT so we are not dealing with such extreme temps as MN or AK, but it can still get pretty cold here. Here is my complement of cold weather gear: Quarterback Muff: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001H1Z9M/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00 Champion Long Sleeve Cold Weather Compression...
