This is the most solid take on this topic that I've heard yet. Regarding the rules, I think the responsibility for fair play is shared by everyone on the card, not just the guilty party. It can be just as mentally challenging to be the guy calling foul. But as in most cases, the sooner an issue is addressed, the sooner it can be resolved. Great video!
I completely agree about the stress of being the “bad guy” for calling the time violation. It seems like maybe the tide is turning and it will become normalized soon
In addition, let me add that this is a very good video. Well produced, well thought out and very kind to those individuals who could be said to be afflicted with 'a flexible relationship with time' in their putting routine. Liked and subscribed. Cheers, D.
Fun Fact -- many people putt slower, also Nikko is a much faster putter since the hate he got 2 years ago.... Also 1 putt for 50 secs > 3 putts that take 15 secs...
If its happening everytime,it needs to be addressed. Address it by calling a time penalty, they'll come around. Sergio Garcia was famous for "regripping", he got cured by the NYC US Open crowd when they sterted counting his regrips out loud,sometimes as many as 20, he came around.
I truly believe, that in the case of Nikko, he was such a hothead that his fellow players did not want to suffer the wrath of anger that calling a violation would incur. Just look how he treated the official at the European Open. He probably would have no problem trying to intimidate a card mate, if he was called out on his time violation, and nobody wants to have that angry guy giving them bad juju for the rest of the round.
I putt rather quickly with a "I've got this" mentality. Set my feet, grip the disc, aim and then begin my body in motion from my legs. I miss a lot of putts, but I always believe I'm going to make the one I'm taking in that moment.
It’s not really an advantage b/c they’re probably running loops in there own head of what the out come is and ends up bad putting but what bothers others are the constant routine every putt. Some times this affect other players b/c it changes their past of play as well.
Niklas Anttila got a warning for taking too long to today in a group with Gannon Buhr, so i think officials are cracking down on it all around. But yipps or not, rules are rules and they should be followed.
Add Gannon Buhr to the list. He also can take a long time to putt. And it is conscious for Cupcake. He has admitted to knowing that he does it and just has a hard tine committing to the putt. But he is actively trying to fix it. In the 2024 Maricopa open, he was quite a bit faster in putting. Even The Disc Golf Guy was commenting on it.
I just don’t get how anybody would have a tough time fixing this issue. It’s not like we’re asking him to putt within 5 seconds, but to not take more than 30. Spend a week practicing where you have a timer set for 20-25 seconds and do like 100 putts with that timer every day. You’ll quickly realize what timing you need and how long 20-30 seconds can actually be.
Yes, because they are 100% aware that what they do is egregious and annoying others. Doesn’t mean they’re bad people or anything serious, it’s just some BS that they chose not to be better
#:30 'Have some grace'.... How about these yipsters have some grace for the members of their foursome who have to endure the mental fidgeting of their fellow competitor(s) during each hole of every round they are forced to play with them. Thirty seconds is a finite value. If they go over thirty seconds call them out and stroke them. Their yips will end if this is done. It is not fair to other players. There is no other way to describe this. You've all either endured this behaviour or done it yourself. Cut it out.

I’m totally going to use that “flexible relationship with time” saying on and off the course! Thank you for the kind words 🙏

Yeah I think the jig is up and that should help them get over the mental side as well

Sounds like cupcake and nikko could learn from playing a round with you
Seeing you sitting on your bag - what manufacturer did you get it from?
Being able to sit on your bag is such a disc golf hack. Mine is made by ridge roller customs

Yes absolutely it would definitely effect my play

Yes I’ve heard that. Does he also have the yippy constant spin/grip thing in his routine? I don’t watch much live disc golf so I’m a bit unfamiliar
@@puttconfidently He's got that constant bobbing the disc up and down over and over.

No they have a neurological condition. In England this called Dartitis. Please watch TH-cam videos on this problem its eye opening
Oh very interesting! Dad Titus did not come up in my research but I’m going to go and TH-cam it now. Thank you for the insight!
@@puttconfidentlyHow did you know my dad’s name was Titus?
Yips is not a neurological condition, Jesus.
Lol he must be a boss with that name. *dartitis
@danielpenrodii2389 it's more than the yips
th-cam.com/video/eRphDXJY0Ww/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1Ot7tI2QHP69tY1p
Regardless of what is causing it it's not fair to others players. How about some grace for them?
Yips are no joke lost my baseball future because of it and it took FOREVER to get over it
Wow I am very sorry to hear that:/ they are a very scary situation
regardless of why they do it, its breaking a rule, period.
Yes, because they are 100% aware that what they do is egregious and annoying others. Doesn’t mean they’re bad people or anything serious, it’s just some BS that they chose not to be better
Yes I didn’t even watch this video I’m answering based on the thumbnail
Lol it might be worth the watch to see what sports science has to say about the reasoning

How do you get attention to your game when you have no game? Niko is yips. Jacob is being annoying. Imo.
