It can do wonders for confidence when you know you're not throwing it over the basket. A couple of those that you hear hit the ground just bounced off center pole because it's only a portable basket and I was 15' away throwing like it was 40'.Damn! Now that is some power from the front leg!
I was wondering how I could transfer this new balance feeling to my throw? I've been having some better luck focusing on pushing my left hip targetward with my rear elbow. I'm definitely still coming "over the top" a lot.I'm really thinking that it can be easier to show someone how to putt in balance and then learn to throw better from that as a base.
Your vertical line comparison on your throw setup vs. follow through with my putt a few posts up also really helped me feel more leverage. I have to feel like I squat more into my plant, and it helps my lower body counter the torso better as it swings forward and I can have balance more similar to in my putt. Haven't got to try it yet with a disc but it feels very powerful and easy to balance, while being easier to create space for the swing.
I'm feeling good about a 2020' tournament season now. I can at least compete in rec/int now most likely. A lot of work to still do though.
