What disc do you throw for max distance?

what disc did u throw tho

Watch Scott Stokley!

These comments feel empty, maybe this will help 😂

The wrist snap hurts my elbow. I'm 40 years old and had to quit using forehands so much Lighter discs, less throws, more warm up to preserve what is left of my tendons I save forehand for scrambles and accuracy on certain upshots

Wow!!!! 👍👍

As a tennis player, I can hit a ball 80 to 90 mph on both forehand and backhand. However. I can barely drive the disc 30 feet on the forehand side, ripping it at 100 percent power and almost throwing a shoulder out, and after watching several hours of tutorials. Still new to this sport, but the forehand seems like a huge amount of effort, compared to a backhand that I can throw over 200 feet standing still, with very little practice.

I take it back i am no longer interested

This made me want to disk golf :)

The thing I've learned lately is my rating improves a lot faster if i spend more time practicing my putt than my drives/max distance, but doing both is still important. I used to just do putt reps without really diving into technique like i do with other parts of my game.

I didn’t even know you could throw forehand.

practicing bad form also will destroy your elbow which did mine.. i would go out to the field and literally throw 30 times max distance and yeah needless to say only way my elbow heals now is 3months ZERO disc golf and i just cant manage to not throw so seems my elbow will NEVER heal.. take this kids advice and warm up so that doesnt happen to you!

i think ppl that dont like the tips just dont believe them.. wither they can throw 500ft and know better or they cant and need to at least try what you say! do you think anything about your elbow in the throw? what about your left thigh do you flex it into the throw?

i notice the best distance sidearm guys throw them like theyre skipping rocks on a pond ..

💥 "Promosm"

pretty sure the answer to getting better the fastest is get to 90%+ c1x putting aka mostly practicing putting

Let’s go!

I have gotten better by going back and up. Like skipping a rock

UMHB! What course are you at? I’m new to disc golf and have been exploring the courses in the area.

HEHEHEHA

Evening Score!!!

👍👍👍

Hi, Sam!!

Good game!! This sport is getting very interesting to me!!

That was a nasty forehand and even nastier putt

What you said after you scored?

👍👍

Nice get

“Yussssss”

Was really excited to watch this.. Was left thinking after the video how Anyone with a 420 FH golf shot could possibly watch this and then get to 500 😢

Hi, Sam. Keep up the good work

Your videos are very informative. I can tell you like this sport & you take it seriously.

I would have a go but it pretty rare in uk il just stick to regular golf for now but maybe one day

No

I'm here for the cake 🍰🎂

I never heard of this sport

👍👍

if the phrase "nice and easy" was a putt

I like your shirt

I like your videos.

Your back foot isn’t pointed towards the target, causing you to lose hip rotation and forcing you to arm the disc

Nahh

That reminds me, I need to do another forehands only round.

Nice bomb. But that putt!!! Swoon!!

BUTTER!

Did the trees have a glitch?

👍👍

Watch out for poison ivy 🥸🙌

I dont throw 500' forehands. But I do know a guy who does- Scott Stokely. And Stokely teaches to throw the disc like you would a ball, and not emphasizing (or overemphasizing) keeping the elbow close to the body. As weird as it is to say to you, even though you can throw 500' the elbow pain is an indication that your throwing mechanics are not good (in the sense that it's not sustainable long term). If you want to avoid expensive surgery, it's best to lay off throwing forehands for a bit and rework the mechanics. It might feel like one step back, but you can take 2 steps forward when you're throwing 500' all round without pain
