When throwing the off board side do u angle ur alignment slightly to make the angle better or stay straight and as I was cut the bag a little to make the angle better?

Always try to keep it straight.......Good Luck!

I enjoy the videos you have put out. You go into some depth on things that are brushed over in other videos. One question I have is do you have an aiming mechanism in your throw? Or are you just aiming based on feel? for example, I'm been playing with the aiming using the V shape that my thumb and index finger make and with the way I release the bag, I can be pretty consistent if I feel like I point the V at my target. There are some shots that require great accuracy, so I'd be interested in both "Pops" and Blake's thoughts.

Just make sure you have that visual. Whether it's looking at the hole, or another spot. Sometimes, I treat it like a putt in golf. Look at the hole, bring the eyes back to you on a line that throw the bag back on that line. Seems to work for me pretty good. Good Luck To You!

For anyone having an issue with the butterfly grip around your index finger. From my experience just keep the index finger straight, with the tip of your finger apply pressure into the bag to help you grip the bag for release. Lemme know if that tip helps. Someone helped me learn

Seems like I play great when I'm not thinking. If I'm nervous and "trying", everything feels unnatural and I miss left and right.

If a player can get to the point where the throw is "simple" and doesn't require much thinking, then you should be on your way :)

What is the ruling on swaying side to side (intentionally or unintentionally) opposite from whomever is throwing. I had a couple old guys mad at me for swaying and I honestly was doing this not on purpose but they were very triggered by it. More so the thrower on my partners side across the way. Clearly he felt strong enough to call me out on it saying I couldn't do that. Me being me almost wanted to keep doing it just out of spite but tried to be respectful and let it go.

Interpretation varies by all players 4.d.iii.4. - A player may flip or spin bags, as well as move within their pitcher’s box as long as the movements are not directed towards an opposing player. 4.d.iii.5. - A player may not directly yell or talk at the opposing player with the intent to distract the opposing player while the player is in a throwing motion. General talking, or talking between teammates and fans is not considered for this rule. The same penalty for inappropriate behavior above is used for violations of this rule.

If you can get a place to give the facility use for free, that is the best option! If they are really having good nights when you are there, then you can possibly ask for compensation to run a tournament/league at their facility. Good Luck!

@northernwisconsincornhole15843 ай бұрын
If you have a flat bag, you can play the the roll/cut game. If you don't have a flat bag, then you should own set of faster bags so you can use your normal throw. Good Luck!

Wail your playing the game. During your game can you change your bags if you feel the ones you're using aren't working for you.
@northernwisconsincornhole15844 ай бұрын
Players are not allowed to change bags during a game. If it's 2 out of 3, you change in-between games in most cases.

Great video. Hey, when you say lock your arm and elbow, do you mean get the bottom of your elbow pointed straight behind you at address, or keep that rested and pointed behind you to the right. Seems like this is the only way I can avoid hitting my leg (pointed in left or straight back). Good luck this yr!!!

The hidden gem in this video is Joel talking about watching a lot of pros play...specifically, in-person. I learned a lot this past year at a couple of ACL Opens by watching how different pros approach and play the game. Talking with pros (including hanging out with you guys all weekend in Kansas) was eye opening as far as gaining perspective and insight into how to play the game at a higher level. 99% of pros are approachable and willing to share tips, techniques, strategies, etc. If you can't make it to an Open or bigger tournament where lots of pros play, videos like this are a great way to learn too!

Kinda shows what a pro game is really like. A good way to simulate would be to set up your boards at a busy Saturday market, and then play against someone way better than you. Ideally with about $1000 on the line
@falconpk8810 ай бұрын
Thank you! I can’t wait to practice more on these tips! Here’s a question, might be a loaded one: so, I’ve been able to throw a butterfly grip and my bag is pretty flat, but I’m inconsistent on my left to right aim. When I switch to a 50:50 grip, my bag is wobbly but straight. However, my bag kicks a lot and doesn’t slide true (throwing disc filled bags like Costello, BG assassins and Amnesias) I like the flat bag, but any reason why I’m inconsistent going up the middle with a butterfly grip? I’m thinking it’s tempo and release point, but thought to ask. Thanks!!
