. . . and here is where my form is. Looking for feedback.

My distance and accuracy has increased quite a bit in the last two months. But, after watching this video, I think it's because of the towel and hammer drills I've been doing and not because my form is picture perfect. To me, I look very "tight" throwing. I've never been flexible ever and I'm 41 so that's not going to change. And I've lifted weights the last 15 years so I can understand why, for example, my arm doesn't flail around like so many other throwers' do. In addition, it seems like the timing is off between my upper and lower body. But, I'm getting my drives in neutral conditions out to about 370 feet but normal is about 340 which I'm not gonna complain about. Most of the time they are line drives about 10 feet off ground but when I do max out I can get some of the discs to do some nice S-curves.
Also, I've managed to really limit the wormburners and skyshots. They rarely happen anymore. These days my main miss is to the right off the tee. Rarely do I ever grip lock anymore. The discs thrown in the video are: Champ Leopard and Monarch, Star TL-Beast-Valkyrie-Roadrunner-----all bought very used but I like them. For rounds, max dist. off tee upwind: Star TL or TBird, downwind: Star Beast. 275-325feet upwind: Champ Leopard, downwind: DX Leopard. All other shots KC Pro Roc. Once again, looking for some pointers. Thanks.
