    400' now what?

    This is solid advice. Also try to develop a routine. It will allow to focus and become more machine-like in your putting. The routine itself doesn't have to be short or long, just something that you do before every putt. When it comes to putting practice I find that I have better success...

    Review by theeterrbear in course Reservoir Ridge DGC

    3.50 star(s) Open but Wooded Reservoir Ridge is a very good on course on the whole but has a few things that keep it from being top tier course. But it has a whole lot going for it too. The setting is a beautiful park between two reservoirs. It seems that everything is very well kept. This does have a...

    Weight lifting & disc golf?

    He says not to start with crossfit, and once you have a good base established outside of crossfit then it wouldn't be a bad thing to incorporate. And he also defines functional, being that all muscle is functional as its purpose it to function (the redundancy hurts), but I feel it was unspoken...

    2014 BHMO

    As someone said earlier it's tight dogleg right that basically forces a placement shot from the tee, unless you're Simon Lizotte who can throw a flex shot that goes above the trees, but I'm pretty sure he ended up in the woods anyway in the first round when he tried that. He also put his drive...

    Why don't people call back?

    The local disc shop in Columbus has done this in the past. One day I got a call out of the blue about a disc I had lost probably 4 months earlier and chalked it up as gone. The guy who found it was trying to get some money for it from the shop. He got bupkis and the shop called me to let me...

    The SFD true Distance (This Summer 2014)

    I seem to recall OP saying that he liked math, so I'd be willing to assume he's got some strength in calculus and so if he has an estimation on the flight path and can come up with a function that is a reasonable model, then the flight length can be determined. I'd also be willing to assume...

    High Speed Video - Form Critique

    Thanks for the input! I see what you mean. Focusing on not setting my rear heel down while doing some slow dry motions feels completely different. The feeling is kind of bouncy and overall much more light-footed. Overall, most of the motions (that I noticed) seem to fall into place more...

    High Speed Video - Form Critique

    Hey everybody, I've been waiting to be healthy enough to actually throw in order to record some high speed video of my driving form, and that time has finally come! jeHhPDoLEZQ The biggest thing that stands out to me is the high backswing. It creates a scooping motion that causes air-bounces...

    2014 Tourney Videos

    This is flippant, adds nothing, and incredibly condescending. I'll leave it at that. Character is also exposed when making judgements on other people. I find it disappointing that people are forgetting this so quickly. Although, benefit of the doubt here is that you specified at his worst...

    Distance????

    As of last August or September I was around 410', 440' and I think 440'. Stupid body just won't stop falling apart though so I don't know where those numbers have dropped to. I've noticed that hyzer distance has always been shorter than straight or anhyzer. I would have to agree, but at the...

    Request: 400ft+ Max D Videos!

    I know I want to see it so you aren't alone. I hope to be making some of these videos starting in 2014.

    NERD ALERT!!

    But at the same time a heavier disc will cut through the air better because drag will have less of an effect on the disc. Food for thought. To make it more accurate, it really boils down to whether the two discs are actually thrown with the same amount of force and how the energy is "spread"...

    New/Used basket, should I?

    I leave mine outside. I used to bring it next to the house or inside, but it's been sitting there for a couple months now. Real bad weather is the what makes me bring it in. Don't want tree limbs falling on it. I live in a nice neighborhood in a nice town.

    Backhand Distance Progression Instructional Video Idea Thread

    This is true yes, but kind of misses what really generates power and accuracy. Most high level players have essentially the same mechanics past a certain point. The "hit" and the moments just preceding it are almost universal, in that there is very little variation in the actual mechanics of...

    Why do people Jump Putt?

    Guess what, there's a clinic that Dave put on that was recorded where he mentions this. The admits that he was illegally jump-putting instead of putt-jumping. He states that's why he does the step through -- the walking putt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_7RPOmSSsU SORRY GUYS I'M BAD AT...
