I have a background in mechanical engineering. You're explanation about pulling the disc toward the chest combined with the rotation of the torso to keep the straight line makes total sense. I've never heard it explained like that. I would love to see some drives filmed from directly above to show this mechanic in action.
Wow. Some great information to take into consideration that I have not heard any pros talk about so clearly, if at all before.
You are a good teacher
Great vid! That above pic helps so much! I think I've been trying to reach back TOO much (if that's a thing) and it throws my shoulders and everything out of wack. Slow is smooth is going to be my new mantra.
Thanks, can't wait to go to a park and put in some practice time. I think having a camera set up directly across from you is very helpful in reviewing where things go wrong, and what aspects are spot on. Power drives happen fast, but with the ability to play it back and pause, you see every detail.
...Now if I could only improve my putting LOL
This videos are really good!
I throw around 330' on my good throws. I am having problems with the shoulders and elbows. My shoulders turn to early like you mentioned. My elbow seems to come across much to low which causes the disc to go from high (at the back-swing), to low (across my body), back to high (at the finish of the throw)... this often results in a nose up throw. What are the best ways to correct these two flaws?
These are great. Really helpful info. I can't wait to get out and do some field work now
good tips man! thanks and keep em coming!
Great video Danny.
Another great video Danny!
He is pretty good at this, yes?
Hey Danny,
I was wondering if your supposed to keep a loose/noodle arm, all the way through the drive, or are you supposed use as much arm as possible after you noodle your arm to your chest to add extra distance. On some discussion boards, disc golfers say they don't use any arm at all as the flexing would slow your arm speed down. Just wondering because right now I'm sitting at throwing about 310, 330 and would love to hit that 400 one day
The 90 degree shoulder to arm tip is great!!! I believe it will be an "ah-hah" moment in my game when I get to try it out. When pulling the disc to your chest should you be pulling to your left pec if you're RH? I feel like I'm getting more power (on practice swings) when I do this instead of to the middle of the chest. Awesome work tho, I look forward to move videos!
Was it?
Thanks.. good advice 👍
Is the elbow smash from the reachback, or once it gets to the chest?
Good vid! Thanks!
I couldn’t understand where the other half of that basket went or what I was looking at! It was so confusing... then I realized it was one of those small target baskets
Kinda weird hearing the CCDG music
Welllll, I know that CCDG used that song in their videos. It is a song that is copyright free for TH-cam creators. And, if you look back at some of the older videos we have been using that song for some time with that logo into.
Don't get me wrong. I am not hating on CCDG. I love CCDG. Ian and his group do amazing disc golf videos.
Great stuff. Now get out of the chair, and show us more, please! :)
Can someone link the video at 2:03 playing in the background?
Isn't is hypothetically not a "straight line" only because once you reach back, you need to pull the disc toward your chest which actually deviates from the line.
who the hell was that goober?
