Hit the GAP like MATT ORUM (5 minute Form Check)

This Off-Season I take a look at the best players' form. Not to teach you "the right way to throw" but to inspire you to learn from the great. There are a million ways to make the disc fly far and accurately, and they are all dependent on the individual. That is why I want to show you the many ways that can work perfectly so that you can develop your own, unique style.

The thing about a player like Matt, why it’s refreshing to see him win and play at such a high level consistently, he’s a great example of finding what works for you and just refining it through years of persistence, once you get into tight highly technical woods playing, trying to have impeccable form will get you in trouble, feel and your ability to manipulate the disc come front and center.

Well said!

"He won't lose any meters, but you might lose some feet." Made me laugh out loud.

[@joeblow2426]

Excellent form breakdown for Matty-O. Really shows there more than one way to get to an objective. I may experiment with it. I greatly enjoy your teaching :)

[@dgspindoctor]

Glad it was helpful! Matty O is SO good!

[@TheMakki]

Great tips! I've also been holding the disc in the power pocket and "aiming" with my elbow before trying to hit a narrow gap. Been working like a charm.

[@dgspindoctor]

Glad it helped! Less is more when it comes to accuracy.

Great topic! Matty O's throw is so clean ive always loved the looks of it. one thing i took from it is how he soars it out there with his chest, made me notice how scrunched together my shoulders were trying mistakenly to get momentum punching my left arm while trying to "lag" my throwing arm by leaving my shoulder limp, rather than getting the power from my whole core and in turn legs. (This didnt work at all and was really bad on my shoulder.) I just misunderstood what all the coaching videos online were trying to describe with the "whip". Actually your "cooking the spaghetti" is what gave me the biggest breakthrough realizing the power pocket is where you basically whip from the elbow not the shoulder, which in turn lead me understand why people like eagle and drew would say "just try to elbow something really hard!")

[@dgspindoctor]

You got this, man!

[@moecantileverjr]

Thanks Doctor. Good show!

[@dgspindoctor]

Glad you enjoyed it!

The last 24 hours has been like waiting for Villeneuve's Dune back in 2018. I am really looking forward to this series.

[@dgspindoctor]

I hope the waiting pays off!

[@ContentsMayDiffer]

@@dgspindoctor It did!

Many thanks for the awesome content (as usual)!

[@dgspindoctor]

My pleasure!

[@magnusgranlund3138]

Nice topic.

[@dgspindoctor]

Glad you think so!

[@Smauli]

Erittäin loistava konsepti videosarjalle!

[@dgspindoctor]

Kiitti! Toivottavasti siitä on apua. Jos ei, niin vähintäänkin inspiraatiota.

[@Karocko]

Great video as usual, I think your form videos are the best on KZbin. Btw, what music are you using in this video? It sounds so chill and relaxing 😎

[@dgspindoctor]

Thanks! The first is Tides by AK: uppbeat.io/track/ak/tides and the second is Satie by Oliver Massa: uppbeat.io/track/oliver-massa/satie If you have seen my videos, these songs play in almost every one of them.

[@Karocko]

@@dgspindoctor Thank you so much!

[@LuckyDogwood]

In his shadow swings pre-shot he turns the key at the end, interesting way to "eliminate" some of the nose up of this swing, curious on your thoughts!

[@dgspindoctor]

Haven't looked at that, but if you throw from the neck height, you could potentially need such a band-aid move to fix problems it causes.

[@ErnoAlias]

Mielenkiintoinen video 👍

[@calebdyer6332]

I have a lot of success hitting tight lines by throwing the back of my hand that the target like Matty o

[@dgspindoctor]

Fewer moving parts, smaller margin of error. This is what I believe.

[@benharrison5816]

Matty O's putt kinda looks like a short version of his control shot here. Like he just pushes the disc straight out from his neck and laser beams it into the basket. It looks very repeatable for him at least. Also you forgot a key part of his form, your glasses need to fly off your head when you throw.

[@dgspindoctor]

Yea, I know. I need to buy some cheap sunglasses to wreck.
