@@Subdivision21 This is no joking matter and I'm taking these kinds of accusations and even hints at them very seriously. I am not taking responsibility for your possible injuries. You alone are responsible for your actions, especially since I'm not watching you practice and don't personally know your issues or what you do and don't do when you throw. I can only give a rough outline of the form I consider good, and since it's done through videos, I cannot vouch that it works for you and your body, your style of throwing, your shoes, your tee pads, or the potholes in the field you may end up tripping in as you practice. Sorry for the strict reply, but I have to make it clear for you and everyone out there looking for opportunities to get victimized and blame others for their stupid actions leading to injuries.

I think I finally found the drill that will help with my issue of getting the disc "stuck" behind me and not having my feet offset. Didn't notice how bad it was until I filmed myself from behind. It seems so counterintuitive, but after trying it out, I feel myself actually bracing more correctly and my arm whipping through faster with less effort. Was recently trying to actively turn my hips and "break down rhe door with my elbow" and all that stuff which completely messes up my timing. Your videos make way more sense.

[@noahhardesty3035]

DR I watched your video on the modified fan grip. I have tried using it for approach shots but it is catching on my pinky and I am pulling it right every time. When I do a fan grip splaying my fingers down the back of the disc I am developing a bad blister on my middle finger but am more accurate. What do I do? I literally only need to learn the approach grip and my game will be so much better. PLEASE HELPPPP

[@dgspindoctor]

Keep on experimenting and most of all, relax.

[@ContentsMayDiffer]

Tried this today. I found it really hard and uncomfortable, so I obviously needed it. Thanks!

[@andrewjung6987]

Doc!! Got something to run by you. Been really implementing your teachings and getting far away from “slingshot back leg” throwing. Your car crash analogy is great, but personally I was still struggling with getting the weight into the brace while moving slowly. Instead, I exaggerated the movement by thinking of my right foot as launching my body (car) into the wall, which is created my the right foot landing and bracing. So, using my right foot to launch back into itself, essentially eliminating the left cross step from thought, and putting little to no weight on it all. Almost as if im keeping the weight solely in the right leg. I guess it’s like a modified cro-hop? But why im writing this is because after doing that, combined with your teachings, im getting mids 350+ with relative ease and finally getting above the 450 mark max distance with drivers. Have you tried this, and is there some downside I should be concerned about?

[@dgspindoctor]

That is perfect. Look at DoubleG, who is almost in the air for the X-step, the back foot barely touching the ground.

[@andrewjung6987]

@@dgspindoctor ohhhh, so that’s the exaggerated version of what I’m doing somewhat, that makes sense. There’s no chance that would have clicked if I wasn’t drilling all of your video tips, thanks a ton Doc. Parked a 415 foot hole today with relative ease thanks to you

Thanks for posting! You're my go to resource and we have gotten a few beginners to almost our level in record time :)

[@Matarro1980]

I don't really have a problem with late release anymore but I still tried this drill and I liked it. It actually feels easier for me to aim with the run up angled towards 1 or 2 o clock but I lose power (of course). Going back to normal throwing I worried about problems with early release but if anything I aimed better than normal with maintained power. The drill caters to a problem I don't have so maybe it's pointless but since it felt good I'm going to keep doing it for a while.

[@jeffgood1580]

Best coach there is imo. This is mind boggling. If I was to put a drill together it would be running up the opposite way but I’ve been working on shit for 2 years and this is my exact problem. This makes sense. God dammit. If you’re ever in the states let us know!

[@_piitsi]

Me 200%. Gotta try the drill asap. Very good video! And you posted it right when needed the most 👌🏻

[@SmarteeSteve]

Your videos always help! I would have figured my throw was maxed out But you show me how I'm barely scratching the surface and make believe I can yet get big distance I've been over-rotating for sure, to the point of hurting my back and arm.

[@SmarteeSteve]

That one part should read "make ME believe"

[@theskibo1198]

Definitely going to work on this one...even though i try to throw from my right peck, it still doesn't feel like im doing it correctly. I think this may be the missing piece for me...your the king Jaani! 🤴 🙏❤

[@dgspindoctor]

Of course throw from the right pec if you can. This is just a drill, remember.

[@cartoonhand]

You are such a great teacher! I don't know what is wrong with my form but something feels of... I can't throw over 110 meters, no mater how hard i try! I just keep releasing the disc late if i try to throw harder. My record is 104 meters and i usually get between 80-90 meters on my full power throws. I will practice this drill and let you know the results!

[@tor-henninganda7537]

This is literally me. Ive been stuck at the same distances since mid summer last year

[@truthstands4ever]

Me too. I can throw 250-270 feet fairly consistently at full power, but no more. I've hit 320 a time or so, but it seems like all the work on my form has taken my distance down some.

[@scotranney8456]

This is a super drill and you explain it in minutes they way Walker can't explain it in hours :)

[@KingKerrmitt]

I have always noticed when I focused on not over-rotating my throw was so much better but I keep sliding back into that habit during rounds. Definitely going to try this drill for an extended period of time to hopefully teach my muscles. Thanks for the drill!

[@youropionmattersnot]

Nice! I noticed that on the throwing plant, there was the "window" between the feet that i saw on several other videos. The throwing window helped me increase my distance but my accuracy is not as consistent. What you demonstrated looks to be the ticket. Great video!

[@dgspindoctor]

Thanks! I tried to find a video about it, but couldn't. To this day I'm not sure how it's done "the correct" way, but this is my version of it anyway and this is how I've done it for years and made my students go through it.

[@kbarb3071]

@@dgspindoctor yeah it's amazing there wasn't a video made on it. It was hailed as the most important drill in the spin and throw method. I was never sure if we were supposed to step to 2 o'clock only in the last step, or if the whole run-up should be towards 2 o'clock. I think I even asked the question in the group and I got at least a few different answers. I think your version makes sense - enough for me to actually try it 👍

step towards 2:00 and release at 10:00 sounds crazy. Am I the only one that notices Paul McBeth and 'everyone else" steps to 10:00 and releases to 12:00? But whenever anyone speaks about this , it comes out backwards. I don't get it.. Paul always steps to the upper left corner of the tpad and releases straight.

[@dgspindoctor]

Maybe watch the video again?

Great drill, really forces the correct throwing motion. Are you familiar with the "throw around the pole" drill? I like that as well because if you yank it right of the pole, you know you threw late. However, I like this more than that one. ❤

It takes a lot of time for some people to get to this point but after you start developing that straight line shot that is in line with you shoulders the entire shot, that's when you know your form is dialed because you can throw on a rope at almost any distance.

[@RBadding]

Nyt taisin keksiä, mistä homma kiikastaa. Vertasin omaa heittoa Lindahlin heittoon (kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHa0doKoq6mAhas). Lindahlilla lähtee paino siirymään eteen silloin, kun kiekko siirtyy taakse. Itselläni paino menee kiekon mukana taakse ja kiekon mukana eteen. Lindahlilla homma menee toisinpäin, paino on jo menossa eteen, kun kiekko menee vasta taaksepäin.

[@dgspindoctor]

Se se on. Kumpi on tehokkaampaa: venyttää kuminauhaa yhdestä päästä kun toinen pää pysyy paikallaan, vai vetää sitä kahdesta suunnasta kireelle yhtä aikaa? Niinpä. Mä heitän Rocia n. 100 metriä paikaltaan.

@@dgspindoctor Hyvä analogia. Itse asiassa olisi hyvä tehdä heitosta animaatio, missä kaikki liikkeet on mahdutettu samaan kuvaan (nuolien kanssa). Sellaisella olisi oppinut melko hyvin, luulen. P.S. Olin Talin Tallaajissa jäsenenä jo 2000-luvun alkupuolella vähän aikaa. 🙃

[@tschimms6138]

Many thanks for your videos ! Highly appreciated What I don’t understand here : I have to let the Disc go early, right ? I mean not like in a usual drive where the disc leaves the hand itself. Hope you understand what I mean :-)

[@dgspindoctor]

No, I do not "let go" of the disc. It rips out. In the drill, the aim is more out of the body than across the body, so the disc will leave the hand earlier naturally. This is a corrective exercise to eliminate the late release, so we exaggerate. To drill is to exaggerate.

[@iPodtouchfan622]

So are you presenting this as just a drill to practice or are you suggesting that running up at an angel should is how we should be throwing straight shots? Because if this is just a drill, after we practice it and then go back to a straight run up, we will now be throwing NOT straight, but rather left. Hope that makes sense

[@dgspindoctor]

No, it's a corrective drill to get rid of bad habits.

[@noahhardesty3035]

Do you recommend a standstill for new players off tee pad? If so how would foot placement and everything look opposed to a run up

[@dgspindoctor]

Stand still is good, but I would always take a small stride keeping the back foot on the ground.
