I've always struggled when people say "You aren't any good, so you can't coach." That just doesn't make any sense.The best athletes in the world have coaches that cannot perform as well as they do, because the ability to perform is not the same as the ability to teach. They are not the same skill. Thanks for everything you do Robbie, keep up the great work teaching, and improving in your own game.
Hey Robbie! Sorry about the rough week last week. We appreciate you and all the hard work you put into building up the DG community! As a newbie, your channel has been an excellent resource, and you genuinely seem like the most awesome guy! Have a blessed week this week, and many more weeks in the future!
Honestly I had to ask myself how I would shoot if i played a pro level distance and woods course, and he still did well. Scott stokely is a great player and shot plus 25 at Jonesboro.. all it takes a few double bogies each day and that’s easy to do.
Robbie, you’re the man. Thanks for still Putting the is video out! I don’t take it lightly when someone says they had the worst week of their life. You are still standing tall and being you. The fact that people take time to Dm you and talk trash is a pretty sad thing (for them!). I really appreciate your positivity cuz, lord knows, I could use it after the past few months I’ve been having! Thank you.
I'm sorry to hear you had a rough week. Thanks for all you do for the sport. You have made me a better player, and I enjoy the game more because of what I have learned from your videos!
I really enjoy listening to talk about disc golf in a positive way. Your videos are a bright spot in my weekend. I’m sorry about last week and I wish you only the best.
I hope that the worst week outside of disc golf is going better for you. I’m sure I’m not alone in saying you leave the game in a better place on a weekly basis. I appreciate everything your videos have done to help improve my game.
Absolutely love this! I’ve never played an event, and my own personal competitive nature is part of the reason why. I really appreciate how real and authentic you are - it’s refreshing content in general, and even better when it’s in regards to how to approach and process competitive events. Thanks Robbie!! You’re definitely a winner in life for putting yourself out there like this, and thinking of others!
I love the overall message of this video, be it casual or in a tournament. I try to keep a positive attitude every round I play, call out every good or pretty throw made, and try to keep any criticism to a minimum because we all have hard days, and sometimes pointing out faults is more distracting than helpful.
Played my first event Pdga event couple weeks ago. Everyone had a good mentality and made the card better. Had a fun round! Went in as relaxed as I could.
Hey Robbie, I greatly appreciate you and your videos! My 12 y/o son and I watch your videos together. We both get a ton of value from your videos. Thanks for everything you put out! 🙏
Considering starting to play in my local course's weekly tag rounds...usually just play once a week with friends so this video is gonna be much appreciated...I have spoken
Ever want to just give a dude the biggest fist-bump, or hug? Well, that was me after this video. A true inspiration, and definite advice and words of wisdom to keep in mind through our tournament journeys - whether it is our first, or 100th.
Coming back to watch this after my first two events you can't be more right! This came out a week before my first tourney it helped and I think I won because of it. After moving up and doing terribly in the next tournament because I wasn't having fun, I can now look forward to improving, making it worth my time, having fun!
I have no idea who would see your content, see you, see a person who is nothing but a smiling face giving beginners some tips on how to up their game and then say “You know what would be a real good idea right now? I’M GONNA TELL THIS DUDE HE SUCKS!” Honestly am at a loss on that one. People suck sometimes but just know there are more people out there who love your content. I genuinely love watching these videos and it’s nice to learn a thing here and there as a beginner
Don't know how I missed this when you first released this video, but you are right on everything. I love your attitude when it comes to playing. I played competitive tennis for years until one day it just clicked. I was pushing myself so hard to do well that I lost the love of the game. It was just a job I really didn't want to do. Since starting disc golf, I have told myself I wasn't going to make the same mistake. While I haven't played in a tournament yet, I plan on doing so in the near future. My expectations are to do my best on that day, and not worry about where I end up. If I shoot well, then great. If not, then I know what I can work on, but either way, I have to have fun while doing it. Thanks for the great video as always. Keep up the good work.
I’ve followed for a while, and came back and re-watched this today… As I prepare for my first event this weekend. Thanks for all the tips and encouragement you put in your videos. Keep it up!
Robbie don't listen to the haters! I love watching and learning from you! The best thing I have taken from all your videos is have fun and help grow the sport! Thanks from me personally, hope your week gets better and we love ya
I my word "we" were just talking about Robbie C at work. We do said often both in learning phase of disc golf thus this channel gold for us. My friend is brand new. I am very old and so though playing for three years now I would call my level "the social level" or "do something fun while getting my hike for the day done". Even though Mr. Robbie C teaching in his vids we both are sure the cat can play based upon his form while doing his teaching. So exciting that we were right: Motor City tournament is real event.
By the way I have done a few events always entering the level I know I will not "win". As one of my boys that did wrestling as a kid said, "I would rather finish in the middle of the pack wrestling varsity than win a JV event." It was funny/sad to see one of my disc golf friends win AM4 and just get trolled for sandbagging. My friend on a good day is AM4. Fun to play with given he does make a handful of good shots each round. He throws these In between throwing deep into the woods or finding the geometric center of a pond. He had never played so well and was not able to enjoy the results of his best day ever by far given the trolling.
Hey sorry bout the rough week you were having! And when people get on you about being garbage it's usually that their jealous about where you are. The fact you were even allowed to compete at a pro event is amazing and I bet those people talking are not even able to get into a pro event. I am brand new to disc golf and your videos have helped me go from a +39 on courses down to a +17. So sometimes you don't need to be the best to teach new players how to even start thinking about getting better!
Robbie i watched this video on my way to my first ever sanctioned tournament. MA3 and i got 2nd. I have to say thank you because it was this video that helped me keep my cool out there. Keep up the great work man and again thank you.
my first time playing was in my local clubs monthly. i'm mid 500's right now on my rating and sticking solidly to the MA3/MA4 tiers. Won't move up to Armature until i'm at least over 800. Decided to play AFTER finding your videos. Just became a part of the Birdie Fam
I also just played at my first local club round. I figured I would just get out and I shot my personal best round at that course! The vibe of this video was what I was going for yesterday lol.
Hey Robbie you have definitely helped me get better at this game and you were one of the first channels I subscribed to because I saw the value in what you were teaching is helping me to get better so let the haters hate keep doing it you’re awesome
Thank you so much for the advice. I'm going to be playing my 1st tournament April 23rd and 24th. Hearing these words of wisdom put me in a better place. I'm still nervous but not as much. Thank you and I will definitely be watching this again the night before.
Hey Robbie! I was on your card 1st day of the NADGT Championships! I will never forget that day and it might have ruined disc golf for me if it wasn't for your healthy attitude. Your approach to "leave the event better than you found it" has been a positive influence to me in how I approach my mental game, both on and off the course. Thanks brother!
Keep it up Robbie! You're right golf can sometimes be one of the most frustrating things you put yourself through. But in the end of the day you do it because you love it! Can be hard not to forget that in the moment. Keep on making some of the most inspirational, fun, relatable disc golf content out there! Cheers!
You've helped me a lot through my disc golf journey - this is my third year so pretty much since the beginning. Thank you for the time you put into the videos and know a lot of us do appreciate you. Looking forward to the next video. Cheers!
Legendary vid…thanks a bunch. Tomorrow I’m playing my first social round in Melbourne Australia and very excited to go on this journey. Love the sport. BTW U r wise beyond your years!
Great advice. Just joined a local club and am the worst rated player in this group by a lot. Finding this community is a great group of people who are out there having fun. Since you are building up the amount of great content, there are plenty of other Robbie C videos to choose from if I need my Birdie fix.
Your channel is amazing! Only played in 2 tournaments so far, however the 2nd of those was similar to what you mentioned; high winds & trees falling all around (was intense) that being said, I had only played the course 1st before the tournament & the conditions were quite the opposite of the event. A lot of overstable discs & understanding that everyone is playing in the exact same conditions. I placed 9th with 20 over. You have been a huge help in keeping my confidence on the course. I use your advice not only for myself, but to anyone I encounter who has questions. For this and so much more I say thank you.
Hey, even if you didn´t beat Dickerson (this time), you went for a pro tournament! Big achievement! There is only one way from here, and it´s up! Great content Robbie!
Plenty of good stuff here. Thanks for the content, Robbie. My first event - about a month ago - was so much fun and did wonders to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of my game. Tons of penalty strokes. Just getting that knowledge helped me improve. Interesting card. My second event - two weeks ago - was even better. No penalty strokes. Played to my strengths. Great card, lots of fun. Next weekend, third event. I'm excited. Am I good? No. Well, no. But, no. I am enjoying the journey to get better, which will never end. Looking forward to my first round with Robbie C - need to get that on the schedule.
GREAT video, Robbie! You gave a lot of much needed advise in there. As far as those internet comments go, they are internet comments and usually come with a side of jealousy. You're a great teacher and have a huge amount to offer in that regard. (And look at you out there crushing it. I ain't proud, you're a better golfer than I'll ever be.) Hope you had a blast at the tournament. Sorry about the bad week. We all have them. Hope things have turned around for you
I have taken to using the word GOLF to refer to anything difficult or trying of the patience. Came in at the break of dawn last weekend and the wife has been golfing me ever since. Raising children be some real golf.
Hey Robbie great videos a friend of mine had suggested your vids after years of playing disc golf wrong, after watching and re watching and watching some more, my game has improved greatly! Keep up the great work..You're Awesome!
Just wanted to let you know Robbie that your recent putting video literally changed my game. I could never figure out how to get power on push putts and literally just pointing out the finger pop and putting the disc on some hyzer for more rotation was a game changer. I’m now consistent from 27 feet and in and it’s felt incredible trying it out for the last couple of weeks
Love your videos and advice. Keep it up. I started July 2021 and I love this Game. I totally relate to your videos and advice. Please keep it up. Your advice extends beyond this game.
Honestly I'm new to DG I love your content ignore the haters cause and of the day they are pawns. The community outweighs with friendly people instead of those pawns. Which is why I start love playing DG. Hope everything is all good 👍 stay safe and have a fun at the tournament
I hope you did well in your first tourney but more importantly, I hope you learned ways to improve for your next one. Keep doing that, and you'll never have a bad day on the course or anywhere! Keep up the great work on the channel!
You are awesome. A real inspiration for me as a casual player. I made two throw in birdies last week on a really hard course. That's because you made me a better player. Hope you play a lot more pro tour events.
Dang, Robbie! I am so sorry to hear about having an absolutely awful week and truly hope that things are on the mend! I followed you all weekend, and was rooting for yeh!
How many times have I said "I parked this one in the practice round" meanwhile I'm standing 90 feet away from the tee after hitting first available. It is true that no matter how much you practice the course, it all comes down to the morning or day of the tournament round and what you do with it in the moment.
Just a thought, I believe that anytime you test yourself, you get results and data. How honestly you examine and logically assemble those is important. Goals and expectations should be reset after each test. Pushing forward, even if it means an initial lateral or backward move is what's important.
Glad to hear you made it through the roughness. And congrats on making it through your first Pro event. Kept track all weekend. Thought you did excellent for a first event, congrats 👏. Thank you for this video btw. Ironically, my group has been discussing trying a few tournaments this year and i think a lot of what you said here, will help calm some nerves. Always excited to see your videos and hear your advice, can't wait to see where it all goes from here.
hey robbie hate to hear it went bad for you in Tennessee...also hate to hear you have hate mail...your great... keep up the great videos.. I'm 62 been playing about a year and have thought about giving it up quite a few times but your advice and videos keep me playing...have really debated a tournament but just can't talk myself into it...also hard to find tournaments with my age bracket...tks again for your videos
Good Luck to you for the tournament... I really hope, you can be proud of yourself afterwards. And Thanx so much for your content - it´s been helpful for a while... and fun to watch... because of course it is for the fun... Although... that last putt I missed... :-( - hihihihi - I am not competitive towards others but as you said: I want to be proud of my disc golf - and that is hard - because as you said: disc golf is hard! ;-) Liebe Grüße aus Berlin, Germany
I was a my first tournament last week, I played extremely poorly bad putts, long upshot, but I had ton of fun talk with the card mates and meeting new people. Plus the round I played after the tournament I beat my personal best on the course would say my first year of discgolf been amazing 😊
Hey man truly sorry to hear about your bad week. I am playing in my first tournament in about a month and it's at a tough course that I have only played a handful of times. This video came at a great time. Can't think you enough for all you do for us as a community and I'll let you know when I blow up the score card of ky first tournament (good or bad)
As a crappy player that is trying to get better, I can relate to the frustration of playing bad in front of others when you know that you should and could be playing better. I need to work on being more positive though though the bad rounds. Learn from it and move on. In the end, it is just a game. People will most likely not remember you for your bad round but for you being a bad card mate. Be a good person first and a good disc golfer 2nd.
I get so mad when I play casual rounds but I feel like if I was in a tournament I would just accept that I suck and try to have fun with it. Getting better though!
Ha. I remember when my dad first came to see one of my events (2nd round). Let's just say that my first round was awful (2nd to last) and I was nervous about having him watch. Turns out I had the best round in a tournament to date. I told him that he has to come to the rest of my tournaments. 😂
You're an awesome dude Robbie. Have you heard about an awesome disc called the pig? This TH-cam guy I watch never stops talking about it. Must be good, right? 😁
Howdy... first PDGA event Sunday May 1. I get 4 Sundays/year out of the pulpit at my church where I'm senior pastor. Wife wasn't thrilled I'm burning one of our vacation weeks playing disc golf, but she let me sign up anyway. Is she awesome, or what?!!!
I dont understand why everyone that I've seen give advice says to wait to enter a tournament. I guess I just went backwards on all of it. I entered a tournament before I ever played a full round. other than the one practice round I had before the event (minus a couple of holes). Granted I did not do well, at all. but it gave me an idea of where I stood and gave me opportunities to see actual improvement based on rating.
Stopped playback to respond to your "people tell me that I suck statement and I shouldn't teach" comment. I have been playing for less than 2 years. I find your videos to be the most helpful because you are not "the best". I think the most important thing you do is show the process you used to get to where you are now, and the process you use to improve. Watching a 5 minute video of the best pros saying "hold it like this and just throw it in from 200ft away" is not too valuable to me. Great players often are not good coaches. Lets face it, playing and coaching/teaching are two entirely different things. In any sport. In anything. Keep up the videos. I enjoy them. And if any one give you shit, use the standard NY response . Tell them to f-off. (I had to edit that for Facebook, but you know what I am saying 🙂
Sorry to hear it’s as been extra bad time for you. I hope things get better for you soon. I wanted to say Thank You for being at MCO, you where one of the players that made an actual effort to “Thank” the volunteers. 👊🤝👊🤝 🪨📄

I've always struggled when people say "You aren't any good, so you can't coach." That just doesn't make any sense.The best athletes in the world have coaches that cannot perform as well as they do, because the ability to perform is not the same as the ability to teach. They are not the same skill. Thanks for everything you do Robbie, keep up the great work teaching, and improving in your own game.
Hey Robbie! Sorry about the rough week last week. We appreciate you and all the hard work you put into building up the DG community! As a newbie, your channel has been an excellent resource, and you genuinely seem like the most awesome guy! Have a blessed week this week, and many more weeks in the future!
Honestly I had to ask myself how I would shoot if i played a pro level distance and woods course, and he still did well.
Scott stokely is a great player and shot plus 25 at Jonesboro.. all it takes a few double bogies each day and that’s easy to do.
Especially with all of the artificial out of bounds
This guy literally speaks to my soul. Every time I have something going on in my game Robbie makes a video about it…
Forget the haters, we love you Robbie and value your time and advice
On my way to my first tournament right now listening to this in the car. This was so great. Thank you Rob.
Robbie, you’re the man. Thanks for still
Putting the is video out! I don’t take it lightly when someone says they had the worst week of their life. You are still standing tall and being you. The fact that people take time to Dm you and talk trash is a pretty sad thing (for them!). I really appreciate your positivity cuz, lord knows, I could use it after the past few months I’ve been having! Thank you.

Excellent way to approach the game
Played my first event Pdga event couple weeks ago. Everyone had a good mentality and made the card better. Had a fun round! Went in as relaxed as I could.
Love the clear expectations! Makes perfect sense! Podium finish is what I EXPECT!
Hey Robbie, I greatly appreciate you and your videos! My 12 y/o son and I watch your videos together. We both get a ton of value from your videos. Thanks for everything you put out! 🙏

You've done better than most people on this planet ever have or will at disc golf. Keep having fun and dropping knowledge.
Yessir Robbie! You’re the man and keep it rolling
Coming back to watch this after my first two events you can't be more right! This came out a week before my first tourney it helped and I think I won because of it. After moving up and doing terribly in the next tournament because I wasn't having fun, I can now look forward to improving, making it worth my time, having fun!
This one hit home...... great video Robbie
I have no idea who would see your content, see you, see a person who is nothing but a smiling face giving beginners some tips on how to up their game and then say “You know what would be a real good idea right now? I’M GONNA TELL THIS DUDE HE SUCKS!” Honestly am at a loss on that one. People suck sometimes but just know there are more people out there who love your content. I genuinely love watching these videos and it’s nice to learn a thing here and there as a beginner
Thank You!! The kind words mean alot!!
Keep at brother!!! Life's definitely not easy most of the time!!! We all love and respect you!!!

Have my first sanctioned event tommorrow and came back to rewatch this, it was fantastic meeting you at the NEDG expo ❤
First tournament next weekend at Taupo-nui-a-tia. I hope to keep this vibe going into it, thanks. Can’t wait 😀
Hey sorry bout the rough week you were having! And when people get on you about being garbage it's usually that their jealous about where you are. The fact you were even allowed to compete at a pro event is amazing and I bet those people talking are not even able to get into a pro event.

Robbie i watched this video on my way to my first ever sanctioned tournament. MA3 and i got 2nd. I have to say thank you because it was this video that helped me keep my cool out there. Keep up the great work man and again thank you.
my first time playing was in my local clubs monthly. i'm mid 500's right now on my rating and sticking solidly to the MA3/MA4 tiers. Won't move up to Armature until i'm at least over 800. Decided to play AFTER finding your videos. Just became a part of the Birdie Fam
I also just played at my first local club round. I figured I would just get out and I shot my personal best round at that course! The vibe of this video was what I was going for yesterday lol.
Love it!!!
Hey Robbie you have definitely helped me get better at this game and you were one of the first channels I subscribed to because I saw the value in what you were teaching is helping me to get better so let the haters hate keep doing it you’re awesome
Thank you so much for the advice. I'm going to be playing my 1st tournament April 23rd and 24th. Hearing these words of wisdom put me in a better place. I'm still nervous but not as much. Thank you and I will definitely be watching this again the night before.
Hey Robbie! I was on your card 1st day of the NADGT Championships! I will never forget that day and it might have ruined disc golf for me if it wasn't for your healthy attitude. Your approach to "leave the event better than you found it" has been a positive influence to me in how I approach my mental game, both on and off the course. Thanks brother!
Thank You!! What a battle it was…against the elements! 🤣🤣🤣
Keep it up Robbie! You're right golf can sometimes be one of the most frustrating things you put yourself through. But in the end of the day you do it because you love it! Can be hard not to forget that in the moment. Keep on making some of the most inspirational, fun, relatable disc golf content out there! Cheers!
This is great timing. I am playing my first PDGA sanctioned tourney on Saturday. Sorry to hear about your hard week! Prayers for ya!
Sorry to hear of your rough week. I hope that all becomes easier & better from here.
Getting prepared for my first event and super excited great tips and ill also see ya there at my first event
You've helped me a lot through my disc golf journey - this is my third year so pretty much since the beginning. Thank you for the time you put into the videos and know a lot of us do appreciate you. Looking forward to the next video. Cheers!
Legendary vid…thanks a bunch. Tomorrow I’m playing my first social round in Melbourne Australia and very excited to go on this journey. Love the sport. BTW U r wise beyond your years!
Great advice. Just joined a local club and am the worst rated player in this group by a lot. Finding this community is a great group of people who are out there having fun. Since you are building up the amount of great content, there are plenty of other Robbie C videos to choose from if I need my Birdie fix.
I how your life is going better dude! Thx for taking the time to explain even after the worst week of your life! Stay up man!
Your channel is amazing! Only played in 2 tournaments so far, however the 2nd of those was similar to what you mentioned; high winds & trees falling all around (was intense) that being said, I had only played the course 1st before the tournament & the conditions were quite the opposite of the event.

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I needed this today. I am headed up to the non-DGPT MCO on Thursday. Great stuff.
Hey Robbie, hope things are getting better for ya! Love the content, you keep making it.....I'll keep watching it!
Super glad I had the opportunity to follow you and the rest of your card and witness your first round. It was pretty OK
🤣🤣🤣that’s what we wanted!! Hahaha Thank You for hanging!!
Hey, even if you didn´t beat Dickerson (this time), you went for a pro tournament! Big achievement! There is only one way from here, and it´s up! Great content Robbie!
Plenty of good stuff here. Thanks for the content, Robbie. My first event - about a month ago - was so much fun and did wonders to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of my game. Tons of penalty strokes. Just getting that knowledge helped me improve. Interesting card. My second event - two weeks ago - was even better. No penalty strokes. Played to my strengths.

Looking forward to my first round with Robbie C - need to get that on the schedule.
GREAT video, Robbie! You gave a lot of much needed advise in there. As far as those internet comments go, they are internet comments and usually come with a side of jealousy. You're a great teacher and have a huge amount to offer in that regard. (And look at you out there crushing it. I ain't proud, you're a better golfer than I'll ever be.) Hope you had a blast at the tournament. Sorry about the bad week. We all have them. Hope things have turned around for you
I have taken to using the word GOLF to refer to anything difficult or trying of the patience. Came in at the break of dawn last weekend and the wife has been golfing me ever since.
Raising children be some real golf.
Hugely agree with the draining the fun out of my “practice” games leading to my first tournament. I play better when I have fun
Hey Robbie great videos a friend of mine had suggested your vids after years of playing disc golf wrong, after watching and re watching and watching some more, my game has improved greatly! Keep up the great work..You're Awesome!
Keep up the good work, Robbie - we appreciate you and wish the best for you. Thanks for the good content
Just wanted to let you know Robbie that your recent putting video literally changed my game. I could never figure out how to get power on push putts and literally just pointing out the finger pop and putting the disc on some hyzer for more rotation was a game changer. I’m now consistent from 27 feet and in and it’s felt incredible trying it out for the last couple of weeks
Let’s go!!!
I've been looking for a video like this!!! Great content!!! You're not only a disc golfer you're a psychologist I love it!!!
Love your videos and advice. Keep it up. I started July 2021 and I love this Game. I totally relate to your videos and advice. Please keep it up. Your advice extends beyond this game.
Great timing on this one. Im playing the rain or shine on the 16th at redstone. It will be my 1st tournament
Keep up the good work. Really enjoy the videos
Honestly I'm new to DG I love your content ignore the haters cause and of the day they are pawns. The community outweighs with friendly people instead of those pawns. Which is why I start love playing DG. Hope everything is all good 👍 stay safe and have a fun at the tournament
I hope you did well in your first tourney but more importantly, I hope you learned ways to improve for your next one. Keep doing that, and you'll never have a bad day on the course or anywhere! Keep up the great work on the channel!
This one comes at a good time for me. Sorry for the rough week Robbie, but I think it's so cool you got to compete on that stage!
Keep up the good work. I find your videos very entertaining!
You are awesome. A real inspiration for me as a casual player. I made two throw in birdies last week on a really hard course. That's because you made me a better player. Hope you play a lot more pro tour events.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Dang, Robbie! I am so sorry to hear about having an absolutely awful week and truly hope that things are on the mend! I followed you all weekend, and was rooting for yeh!
How many times have I said "I parked this one in the practice round" meanwhile I'm standing 90 feet away from the tee after hitting first available. It is true that no matter how much you practice the course, it all comes down to the morning or day of the tournament round and what you do with it in the moment.
Just a thought, I believe that anytime you test yourself, you get results and data. How honestly you examine and logically assemble those is important. Goals and expectations should be reset after each test. Pushing forward, even if it means an initial lateral or backward move is what's important.
This came at the perfect time…hope all is well!
Glad to hear you made it through the roughness. And congrats on making it through your first Pro event. Kept track all weekend. Thought you did excellent for a first event, congrats 👏. Thank you for this video btw. Ironically, my group has been discussing trying a few tournaments this year and i think a lot of what you said here, will help calm some nerves. Always excited to see your videos and hear your advice, can't wait to see where it all goes from here.
Thank You!!! Glad to be on the other side, can’t wait to recap it for yall!!
hey robbie hate to hear it went bad for you in Tennessee...also hate to hear you have hate mail...your great... keep up the great videos.. I'm 62 been playing about a year and have thought about giving it up quite a few times but your advice and videos keep me playing...have really debated a tournament but just can't talk myself into it...also hard to find tournaments with my age bracket...tks again for your videos
Definitely appreciate your videos . I bet it's alot of work with everything else going on....
I enjoy making them! It’s a release lots of days!!
Good Luck to you for the tournament... I really hope, you can be proud of yourself afterwards. And Thanx so much for your content - it´s been helpful for a while... and fun to watch... because of course it is for the fun... Although... that last putt I missed... :-( - hihihihi - I am not competitive towards others but as you said: I want to be proud of my disc golf - and that is hard - because as you said: disc golf is hard! ;-) Liebe Grüße aus Berlin, Germany
Great messages. Thanks man
Great video thanks for the advice!
Proud of you man!
I was a my first tournament last week, I played extremely poorly bad putts, long upshot, but I had ton of fun talk with the card mates and meeting new people. Plus the round I played after the tournament I beat my personal best on the course would say my first year of discgolf been amazing 😊
Let’s go!! Way to bouncr back!
Hey man truly sorry to hear about your bad week. I am playing in my first tournament in about a month and it's at a tough course that I have only played a handful of times. This video came at a great time. Can't think you enough for all you do for us as a community and I'll let you know when I blow up the score card of ky first tournament (good or bad)
Really enjoyed the video.
Keep it up!
Nice Trash Panda t-shirt! You're welcome in Denver any time!
As a crappy player that is trying to get better, I can relate to the frustration of playing bad in front of others when you know that you should and could be playing better. I need to work on being more positive though though the bad rounds. Learn from it and move on. In the end, it is just a game. People will most likely not remember you for your bad round but for you being a bad card mate. Be a good person first and a good disc golfer 2nd.
Hey I played my first event a couple weeks ago. It went pretty well…besides taking a drive to the back of my head.
Oh no!!!!
@@RobbieCDiscgolf hey no worries. I started playing better afterwards!
I get so mad when I play casual rounds but I feel like if I was in a tournament I would just accept that I suck and try to have fun with it. Getting better though!
Ha. I remember when my dad first came to see one of my events (2nd round). Let's just say that my first round was awful (2nd to last) and I was nervous about having him watch. Turns out I had the best round in a tournament to date. I told him that he has to come to the rest of my tournaments. 😂
Well done
You're an awesome dude Robbie. Have you heard about an awesome disc called the pig? This TH-cam guy I watch never stops talking about it. Must be good, right? 😁
I’ll have to try it!! Some people keep recommending some lame sounding disc called a…zone?? Heard of it?
@@RobbieCDiscgolf like, commercial? Residential? That's weird. That's like throwing a harp. How am I suppose to throw this heavy instrument?
I hope things are better now.
How did you do in Nashville?
Howdy... first PDGA event Sunday May 1. I get 4 Sundays/year out of the pulpit at my church where I'm senior pastor. Wife wasn't thrilled I'm burning one of our vacation weeks playing disc golf, but she let me sign up anyway. Is she awesome, or what?!!!
That’s amazing!! I remember the days of only getting a few Sunday’s off!!
Hope you're ok man, praying for ya
Just played my first doubles match last weekend and the putting was well, a bit rough with the pressure
Great video. Also haters going to hate
So what your saying is that to have more of an outline then and a detailed throw by throw plan for each hole. Word.
I dont understand why everyone that I've seen give advice says to wait to enter a tournament. I guess I just went backwards on all of it. I entered a tournament before I ever played a full round. other than the one practice round I had before the event (minus a couple of holes). Granted I did not do well, at all. but it gave me an idea of where I stood and gave me opportunities to see actual improvement based on rating.
I’m with ya!! All about knowing yourself and seeing what works!!
My first event was a Jomez thing. My son and his buddy couldn't make it so I was alone. I was so nervous and choked so badly. 😕
It’s ok!! Onto the next!!
Stopped playback to respond to your "people tell me that I suck statement and I shouldn't teach" comment. I have been playing for less than 2 years. I find your videos to be the most helpful because you are not "the best". I think the most important thing you do is show the process you used to get to where you are now, and the process you use to improve. Watching a 5 minute video of the best pros saying "hold it like this and just throw it in from 200ft away" is not too valuable to me. Great players often are not good coaches. Lets face it, playing and coaching/teaching are two entirely different things. In any sport. In anything. Keep up the videos. I enjoy them. And if any one give you shit, use the standard NY response . Tell them to f-off. (I had to edit that for Facebook, but you know what I am saying 🙂
Probably a dumb question but is there a minimum number of disc for tournaments etc (PDGA) ?
the better i play the more fun i have
This Sunday… I’m very nervous.
Word.
Got the same atlas bag in sand color
Sorry to hear it’s as been extra bad time for you. I hope things get better for you soon.
I wanted to say Thank You for being at MCO, you where one of the players that made an actual effort to “Thank” the volunteers. 👊🤝👊🤝 🪨📄
Here we go!!!
So grateful for the army of volunteers from Music City that made it amazing!!
Hi Robbie how I can get in contact with you for some coaching thanks
