Some people read about meditation, studying techniques and various schools of thought, paying gurus to give them a mantra and some people just medicate.
When you work hard and have great talent, you become Paul Mcbeth! :clap:
Didn't Kevin Durant say that? or did he borrow it from someone else?"Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn't work hard"

Don't know if you suck but it might be that you are over thinking the whole thing. It sounds to me that your friend is just going with what feels right. You studying and working on all those details makes you think way too much about your game.
Clear your head and just throw. See how that works.
I can understand where you're coming from. I've been playing about as long as you, and like to practice as much as I can. I've seen a lot of improvement in my technique, distance, and putting, but don't feel like that has translated to better scores as much as I would like.
My theory is, I'm building a solid foundation for myself that will allow my game to better grow over the long term. I'm not aiming to go pro or anything, but I do find the practice/improvement side of disc golf to be part of the attraction; it's not a matter of taking it too seriously, just a matter of enjoying the sport how I like to enjoy it. So my thought is, you're hard work and knowledge will pay dividends at some point, even if it may be slow in coming. That's certainly what I'm banking on.
I find it peculiar that the OP said nothing about his short game, and only briefly mentioned that his friend practiced putting occasionally. Hmm.
forehand and overhand drives dont take much skill to perform. i know a few hacks that get by like this. have him backhand one day and you sidearm and see what the scores are. bet you win by a landslide.
A friend of mine and I both started playing about the same time (about a year ago).
I just went back and read the entire thread. How awesome is it, PCDG13 that your thread has been visited by the reigning 2x world freaking champion? I love this website...
