Wow, thank you! I definitely got the sense that my mids were releasing late, but I didn't even notice how open my hips are when I plant to throw. The rounded path of the disc from reach back to release definitely sticks out as well. Thank you again! I will try to get more video as I work...

Hi everyone! I have been slowly coming back to disc golf this year after a ~4 year hiatus, and am trying to build up better backhand form in the process. Finally got some videos of myself this morning while doing some field work, and would love some critique and/or drill suggestions. Not...

Tee signs have been removed from tees and placed on there own for at least a year or two I believe. The pictures posted are of the white tee and the A-pin. I've played this hole a lot and have gone OB probably more times than I can count. This hole typically requires throwing something pretty...

In reference to Brodie in the college finals a couple years ago, not sure if you remember, but Carleton also had multiple TMF's in that final (at least one having to do with making bad calls). Not defending Brodie, I know he has a pretty bad rap from his college days, but he is a pretty...

Awesome, Vince.

I am somewhat of a cynic by nature, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. Caddying for one of the touring pros seems like it would at least be fun in the sense that you get to watch up close and can really be a student of their game, probably ask questions or for advice before/after, and...

Ehh, seems like you may be romanticizing it a little bit. This isn't like ball golf where professional caddy is a full time job and a lot of caddies know more about the game then the players do. I think most pros (at least the ones utilizing a caddy who isn't just a buddy helping out, in that...

I play both(played top 4 college regionals level for 2 years so somewhat competitive) and to be honest haven't felt a positive or negative difference from it. If anything disc golf has helped me to understand disc flight, but in my opinion they are different throws because an ultimate throw...

I would think that (more than likely) the things that strengthen the hammer pound feeling are the same as the good fundamentals you speak of learning. I think it's entirely possible to have "good form" and not be able to throw far (i.e. clean throw/release but little or no hit, this is a point...

Something I've been wondering, when people refer to Aviar distance/throwing Aviars without turning, is it in reference to beaded Aviars (KC's, JK's, etc.) or DX Aviar P&A's?

I think typically if the TD report has been submitted the unofficial ratings go away (so no ratings listed till the official ones come out at the next update) and the tournament/points will show up on your PDGA page. I have a tournament from the same weekend already showing up on my results for...

It looks like the TD report for that tournament hasn't been submitted yet.

Indeed I did. My first viewing was with no volume and closing the window imediately after the final putts so that's probably why. Good to know though, thanks.

Does anyone know if DGM has anything in the works for the rest of the footage from the PFDO? I know it's typically one episode for one event, but I think they also filmed the lead card during the finals and it would be a shame if none of that footage even made it into the highlights package.

Yeah, basically my concern with the DX's. My KC's have been used as throwers for quite a while, but if anything the grip has deteriorated from tacky to slick in that time. Still love them for throwing, but they definitely feel slick to me when it comes to spin putting. I will definitely still be...
