Having my back heel down causes my back foot to create a 90 degree angle. We have a video about why I think it can help you putt better

I have lost a little bit!

So stoked to hear this!

Awesome insight! Thank you!

Thank you for watching and for the compliment!

Hopefully it helps!

Absolutely! I thought of Uli’s putt after I finished filming and felt like an idiot for not mentioning it. Thank you for getting in the comments and can’t wait to see what you come up with next!

Well I don’t know if I’m really trying to teach, mostly just share what’s working for me, but thank you!

Hell yeah! So stoked to hear you’re getting benefit and absolutely with painting the pole!

Dude this is so awesome to hear! Great work implementing those cues on course!

Hey man I’m just making videos about what works for me. I wasn’t twisting at all so for me just getting the feeling of any rotation is helping. I also wasn’t getting any feeling of weight shift, so just feeling that is helping. I’m not trying preach about form, I’m just documenting what is working for me. These backhand form comment sections always seem to turn into these huge debates about this movement is right or that movement is right. I don’t really care what is right or wrong, if it adds distance I will take it right now and worry about dialing it in for accuracy later. I do appreciate your mention of over rotating I honestly didn’t consider that being a problem for some people, but for me twisting into the power pocket after a good reachback is helping me stop pulling so hard and use more core muscle and not all arm/mid back. Combing it with a good weight shift/brace should prevent over rotating, but that is just the next step I’ll have to implement.

I dunno maybe but it’s really helped my game since I’ve been doing it. Out of curiosity what do you think looked so bad while I was sitting?

@@NickCarroll I haven’t tried all the drills but this one seemed to click pretty fast for me

@@Schaibs_dg yeah man it’s been way too hot out here for any kind of beard 🤣

@@Marissa0823 excellent I highly recommend it! I added links in the description for a cheap adjustable height stool and fitness balance disc. I’d also recommend using a net if you have one but a throwing in the field will work as well

@@discsmd dude thank you! This has been a game changer for me already

Awesome please let us know how it goes!

@@puttconfidently Will do!

Hey Man that is awesome! I will be shipping all of them out the second i get the delivery! Honored to be a part of your channel/journey and i can guarantee the PowerSync is going to help your game

also, since you're being so generous to use one on our channel, and are such an early believer, ill send an extra one along so you can give one to your buddy!

@@puttconfidently Thank you! Looking forward to it!

@@d-clips-in-KC shoot dang! Thank you and have fun out there!

@@happyboyeeeee the clicking noise is coming from the training tool I’m wearing on my throwing arm to help time things up a bit. Great advice about the shoulder and keeping the arm loose and thinking about the timing of the back shoulder!

Thank You! I'm going to start using it more! Hopefully it helps you visualize things a bit better

lol no that's just something i had around the house, but it is really nice to have for the practice area!

@@puttconfidently I’ve always thought circle design was far superior to box diagram for the tee . Leaves room for the basket location to interchange, safari set up, tee sign visibility, this list goes on for potential construction of the course.

@@Schaibs_dg I definitely see what you're seeing! There would be a lot more options with circular tees. I assume they are just harder to build? I guess they only materials that could be used for circular tees would be rubber or concrete.

@@puttconfidently I don’t see why the same standard tee pad for the PDGPT couldn’t be circular, also gives the players who need longer run up the availability and more angles for shot shaping off the tee

On doing more research you are right. Someone more like Ray Allen would have been a better example for what i was trying to say that works for me. Thank you for pointing that out.

We've got a couple videos about putting that should help! What is it about your putting that you feel isn't working? Do You miss in a certain way consistently? It's amazing you can hit 400 consistently Id love to help you improve your putting so you can be an absolute monster in the Masters Division.

Well if you ever need to get some touch on your putt, I believe this could help you, and if you're aiming for the back edge of the cage, you are putting "through the basket"

Yes the same height as a disc golf basket cage would be ideal, I just didn't have that at my house but I'm sure that type of trash bin is available. I agree its not great for spin putting, but we don't push spin putting very hard on this channel.

Yeah I don't have a perfect prescription, its not meant to be a perfect solution but just something different that can give a different perspective on putting, that could help especially if you need to practice getting some lob on your putt. Thank you for the feed back!

@@puttconfidently The thing is.. Anyone can get a plastic rubbish bin for about the price of s disc.. and you could probably use it for other things like... holding rubbish. I was thinking about portability... on a calm day, a camping chair would be a good choice.

@@TheButlerNZ oh yes a camp chair would would be a great idea. I agree this is not super portable. I didn't think that far ahead but I believe I was imagining this as at at home drill when I started filming.

@@puttconfidently I have both... The bin is 20ft from me now.. in my sitting room... catching cans and musli-bar boxes and the odd 2lt soda bottle. Disc Golf has done wonders for my bin throws... (Tip, 45deg hyzer for a musli bar box...) q8D

Oh yes those I take every time lol. I forgot to add an asterisk saying those are good. The point i was trying to make was just for the drill of not worrying about the chains, and just focusing on arcing the putts in to the bottom of the cage. Thank you for the reminder to mention that!

Yes I think the main benefit from this experiment is goin to be pace adjustment/touch. It could help you putt flatter but I didn't really explore that. Please let me know what you think after trying it, and if it does help you putt flatter, that would be an awesome added bonus!

That is fantastic to hear! Thank you for the feedback and support!

That is super champy of you Alex!

Please let us know how it goes! and keep and eye out next week I'm going to attempt to put more data behind getting the heel down

@@puttconfidently Copy! Looking forward to it

Keep an eye out for an even more detailed video about it coming out soon! Its helped me so much and Id like to pass along as much information on it as possible to see if it can help others on the putting green

Hah its all good were all about playing smarter not harder! Id say its very comparable to an avair from innova. The takapu is a bit deeper though which I think gives it a bit more glide at slow speeds which is why I included it in this video about missing low. Please let us know what you think if you try a lightweight innova putter or two!

Thank you! Yes we are going to be doing all of that, starting with backhand stuff. It'll be a few weeks we've got a couple more putting ideas we want to get out there before starting that.

Thank You! Keep an eye out for a give away soon so we can give back a bit for all of the support from the community!

Great job putting the work in to practice and implement them!

Hell Yeah! That is amazing to hear thank you for sharing! Hearing this gives me even more fuel on the fire to keep sharing tips/tricks that at least work for me

I believe he keeps his putts on a more direct plane with a sh*t ton of spin comin from the neck area even from circle 2, but ill have to check this out

i dont know if you mean this as a joke or seriously. Are you trying to practice the quiet eye period and you're missing right because of it? Because that sounds interesting. I'm going to be making a quiet eye specific video soon so your insights with it would be useful to include

I used to be a darts player that played several high end tournaments across the country before disc golf. I discovered then I was right handed left eye dominant , the adjustment in darts is to throw from center face like pro phil taylor. Being right handed but left eye dominant I could never shoot a bow regardless despite what pro shop would try to rig up. I am finding the eye dominance issue is harder to work around in disc golf

@@clawshooter5867 wow very interesting. I've read about cross eye dominance but I've never heard of anyone is disc golf having it. where do you have the most success aiming when putting at chains?

@puttconfidently I've spent loads of money on private lessons including 2 current dgpt mpo and 1 dgpt fpo player and from our local 1000 rated players. My putts come put nice and flat fully committed I never miss left low or high. I've tried numbers styles spin,push, push. Straddle right and straddle left and not matter what I pull all my putts right. I focus on the the pole, but I now it's the eye dominance issue because I feel I don't see the basket squarely in my vision, I see it angled no matter how I stand. It's especially bad because I have 425' backhand and 350' forehand at age 43 and I play MP40. Putting is the biggest leak of my game

@@clawshooter5867 wow I'm sorry to hear this about your putting, but I have to admit its pretty fascinating to me. I'm going to do some looking around in sports science studies and let you know if I find any cross eye dominance tips/tricks specific to golf that would translate. I assume you've already tried closing one eye to get a more true vision of your aiming point? it would be a kind of weird thing to have to do when putting but maybe it would help

We love rants around here! Thank you for your insights!
