I have been getting noticeably better thanks to these videos. I'm getting comments from my group when I'm making longer putts than I was. The two main factors are the quiet eye and proper brace. I still have a lot of work left, but these 2 tips alone are saving strokes for me.
Yes I'm very lucky to live pretty close to Norbrook, but the bugs are terrible right now as you could see, and the grass in the fields is getting a little long just FYI. We're there a couple Saturdays a month message me if you're coming up so we can get a round in!
I’ve been really focusing on hitting my brace in putting and it’s been making a pretty big difference, thank you for these 🙏🏼 and hopefully no malaria 😂
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
I think sometimes there's a problem with the language used when teaching things like this. The term "brace", at least for me, doesn't fit here. Weight-shift is more appropriate. I can honestly say that the best and most consistent part of my game is putting and the key to it for me is the weight-shift. I've spent a long time practicing and analysing my putt and the key to it all is to slightly rock the weight from the back foot to the front foot so you're transferring the momentum into the swing of your arm. The great thing about this is that you can then adjust the width of your stance to adjust for distance. It automatically allows you to transfer more momentum the wider you stand and your putting stroke feels very similar for anything from 1m to about 14m. After that, you're into jump putt territory and that's a different ball game. Obviously this only works for the spush putters out there but I do think that the spush putt is the optimal putting technique. Just look at who uses it. I've played around a lot with the straddle putt because sometimes you just have to have it and it's a complete sea-change so non of this advice works for that and I have to commend Kristin Tattar because it's not an easy putt to get the timing right on, but when you do, it's surprisingly accurate. Sorry for the rant =)
your channel has been the best help in my putting game. noticed a big difference this year already. plus, you're fun to watch.
Hey Dustin Thank You! I'm so glad you're seeing results!

Dude this is so awesome to hear! Great work implementing those cues on course!
I love how you are taking sports science studies and crossing them over to disc golf. Keep it up!
Thank You! Its really fun getting to combine two passions of mine, and hopefully helping some disc golfers lower their scores a little bit
Keep it up bro! Almost to 1k and it is well deserved. Thank you these tips and ideas are really helping my short game
I'm so stoked to hear they are helping! Thank you for the comments and support! its people like you that help us get to almost 1k
Great job.
Norbrook is a fantastic course.
Hope to see you soon.

That is fantastic to hear, a proper brace is a huge component of a successful putt that is repeatable and adaptable!
My quiet eye keeps pulling my putts right
