Robbie, I have the exercise that you are looking for. I was working on holding my head in place and inadvertently was holding my trailing arm back and in the process overextended my left shoulder. I will do my best to explain the exercise. Arms bent at 90 degrees and elbows against the body. Hold a stretchy band between your hands which should be face up and shoulder width apart. Rotate your arms outward while keeping your elbows against your body. You will feel the pull on the inside of your shoulder. If you are working on an injured shoulder, there are two additional adjustments to this exercise. The first is to only work one arm and start it against your body and work it outward. The second is to employ a looped stretchy band with one end attached to a fixed object and the other looped around your arm just above the elbow. This will further isolate your shoulder and keep you from cheating the exercise. I am not a medical professional, just an old, broken disc golfer. If this exercise has a name, please let me know what it is.

Hi guys, im a physical therapist. If you want a decent shoulder/arm care routine look up something called the throwers 10 program. I would also encourage you to look into some type of thoracic (upper back) mobility exercises and hip rotation exercises to avoid injury as well

at 61 years old and in my 3rd season of playing this wonderful sport I have almost completely stopped doing a run-up altogether. I have been doing just stand still shots about 95% of the time in my field work + casual rounds. I have finally hit 270 feet a few times, which is huge for me. normally I am averaging about 230-245. making one minor form change at a time has been key. If you are a new player, "please" go spend time on the practice field...that is where all of your progress comes from.

I'm one of those students that blew my old max distance out of the water. After struggling breaking 300' for about a year we happened to be playing around at our local pitch-and putt. He had me try the backwards drill on hole 16 with a few soft throws, but on 18 I kinda had the motion down and let it follow through with my grace and tapped in a birdie on a 340' flat ground hole. I'm glad we did it towards the end of a round, that way you know for sure you're good and limbered up. Pre-round for me is gonna be kinda tense. Warming up properly is going to be key to avoiding injury. I still hit 350 pretty regularly, but every now and then I can poke out to 375, or 390. Now, if I can get my nose angle consistent, I might be able to hit my 400 goal by the end of the year.

I was once told in my early growth stages to not get discouraged when you feel like your not improving because the game is all about 1 step backwards to get 2 steps forward. Another great tip I got along the way was you don't have to always get to the basket from a scramble shot, you can focus on your putting comfort zone. Totally different angle than to the basket that's probably a way easier shot. Boom another stroke saved! 👊🥳 Go get em today!

@@OneFocusPhotos speed is easy to fix Focus. One thing the disc needs besides forward speed is spin speed. There's 2 things that makes the disc go far: 1- forward speed(arm speed), 2- disc spin speed. #1 arm speed starts a split second if not at the same time as your last plant step. A smooth walk up and a Bruce Lee explosion when the arm is ready to fire. #2 spin the sweat of it! You can get more distance with the same arm speed as long as you spin the disc more. Keep physics in mind. Think about what the disc needs. The disc needs forward speed and spin speed. That's pretty much it. Next topic is the proper disc for the job... Hope this helps. 👊👨‍🎤 #2

So, I am coming up on 13 weeks post surgery (Reverse complete shoulder replacement) and have also had 12+ weeks of PT. I am now ready to re-learn how to throw and I am searching for tips and instructions. Your videos are so inspiring to me, thanks so much for breaking this down so I can build back better! (unnecessary political pun intended). I have a follow up appointment with my doctor next week and I intend to show him and my physical therapist the motions I learned from this video. To retrain, I will start at 20% speed and take several weeks to ramp up slowly. I will also need stretching exercises specific to my right shoulder, the very area you showed in this video. Because of my addiction to disc golf, I have been playing LHBH for the 6 months (which really sucks) but I am out there and not on the couch. Thanks again, I feel better now that I have a plan.

Went out to the field to try the backwards throw, and with minimal effort was throwing almost as far as a normal throw (which ain't very far). Started to put a little more energy into it and was throwing as far or a little farther. Then tried the "focus on the bag" thing (used a mini to focus on) and I could instantly FEEL the difference. The distance was probably +30 feet on just a few tries, and the disc was coming out dead straight. Can't wait to practice this more and hopefully make it stick. Thanks as always Robbie!

Perhaps one of the best videos you have put out. Of course all are great! Honestly this video was the “light bulb” moment where other videos and instructions from you and others just clicked and made perfect sense! Thank you thank you thank you! 2 instructional content ideas I would love especially from you: 1) from the day 1 disc golfer perspective, how should I start? Basic beginner mechanics that show a brand new disc golfer how to get started. I understand this is a lot and it could even be a great video to talk about it enough to get the person started on drives, approaches and putts and then you can comment on included links to previous content that goes more in-depth. 2) I would love a video with you take on how someone should bring introduce a person to disc golf. I mean if I was to bring someone out to the course for the first time, what is a good curriculum or tips on how to demonstrate the technique and what are some key mechanics I should prioritize when helping them get started. When I bring someone new to discgolf (playing less than a month for example), what should I focus on showing/teaching them. I typically end up overloading them with 10 things to work on and although I have good intentions, I feel at times I take something that should be fun and easy to start into and complicate it too quickly. Obviously this is a me issue but hopefully others have the same issue and would find this helpful.

I have called "looking for the shot" chasing the disc. My brain is so excited to see where the disc is going to that I chase the disc with my eyes. A local coach also calls it something along the lines of needing head patience, and their drill was really similar to the bag drill, but he would make me keep eye contact with him as soon as I started my walk up through the disc getting to the ground. Love all the tips and coaching you give! Gonna have to go out and try that backwards drill at my next fieldwork session.

I had inadvertently been sorta doing this drill with my flight towel before rounds way back but completely forgot that feeling as of lately. Started doing it again but this time focusing on exactly what you taught. I just start off very slow with the towel, maybe do some sprinkler twists first, then work on slowly increasing that hand speed till I feel like I’m at 60-70% effort. Then just stop and take the first few holes easy. Wow, not only am I hitting lines more consistently but the discs are going way farther with less effort. This seriously has me eyeballing those private lessons. Need to get my putting game strong!

First time leaving a comment. I started watching your channel when I started playing and the channel was relatively new. I liked a lot of the older content on you playing rounds and talking through your strategy. You do that some with the break 1000. I also like the pig battles as you spend a lot of time focusing on the shot shapes and the disc flight when you compare. I have found those things very helpful for my game and I would like to see a lot more of that content personally.

In the traditional golf swing, keeping the chin down through the swing makes a huge difference. I do the chin tuck for my backhand throws. It keeps me more focused on proper mechanics. Supper easy to look down at the plant foot, our footing, squirrel, shinny object, rather focus on that power moment. Tighten core. Hyzer bend. Athletic shuffle. Tuck that chin, boys and girls.

Hi, I am not a medical professional! However, I was given a stretch by a licensed Physical Therapist as part of a stretching regimen. There are two ways to do it, one requires an inside corner, and the other requires a door frame. i find the corner more comfortable, but I know some folks find the door frame more comfortable. To do the stretch, all you do is have one foot in front of you and one behind for balance, then you put your arms at about chest height and place your hands on either the walls of the corner or either side of the doorframe, and you control the stretch by leaning into that front leg. Hold it for about 30 seconds, rest, then switch legs. I was given this stretch to do once a day, however, now that those muscles are more flexible, I don't need to do it as often. One thing to pay attention to is making sure your hips aren't tilting back too much, try to keep them up right as best as you can.

I always tell beginners that getting the feel for all the throws…backhand, forehand, approaches, putts… in their hands is the absolute most important thing for success AND distance. Spin, angles, and force. I recently hurt my right arm for a few weeks and started throwing lefty, focusing on form from the fingers back, and when I started throwing righty again I had gained like 40 feet on my drives and better juice on my putts.

Danny really said it best. "Slow is smooth and smooth is far" Assuming you have pretty decent form, trying to throw fast isnt applying that speed to the disc. More than likely what is happening is your rushing the time in the pock or missing the power pocket all together. Don't think about speed. Thing about strength. Think that you are loading energy into the disc. Im 5,6 130lb and I can throw about 400 but if I try to throw 420 by going fast I'll only get 300. Take your time put things in there place. Feet, Hips, Let your body pull the arm. Fully articulate your leavers. Keep your head turned away from the target until the disc is torn out of your hand. Don't let it go! Take your time.

Can confirm that hand/arm speed is very key. This season I have only gone stand still, after a test round where I only used stand still and focused on accelerating the hand. I went from like 260-270 feet max distance to somewhere 340-360 feet by just standing still and making my arm/hand move fast. This off season I hope to put in the time to get the rest of body involved but if I am honest for a MA3 player with around 300 controlled distance now my distance is fine. (but 400 would be nice...) I was learned by a possible time travler that is called "Being curious"

yeah for some reason they teach to just hold the wrist straight and dont think about it, but I have been watching Nick Crush and he's grinding the tech disc and rear loading the grip and curling the wrist to attain spin and a negative nose angle. I think thats why the best throwers in the world look like their moving slow, its the last lever in the arm, the wrist, thats moving so fast, and you cant see that in real time. It's like their body and arm moves slow, but the disc comes out so fast!

Today I tried keeping my head down until my left shoulder brought it up and boom 350ft with ease and lots of distance with less effort.

Daniel Lindahl went from teaching straight pull to teaching wide rail and now it seems that you, OD and a bunch of others went in the opposite direction. Disc golf is confusing man.

@ViJt-oq5nq

Weirdly I've been on this topic with my own form and feel a need to go wide rail. The pull I think depends on the individual... Your body shape and what your 'stock shot' is. If you're tall and lanky with longer upper arms it'll probably be easier for the disc to clear on a straight pull or deep pull. Or if you're naturally bent over more and throwing hyzers you can probably create more space that way. Shorter or and larger frames can probably benefit more using a wide rail. Right now my issue is I have a habit of reaching straight back for a straight pull, then the disc runs into me, or I naturally give it an anhyzer tilt so it can clear my torso. If I wide rail, I get the clearance and a much flatter and smoother throw. Playing in FL we have very low ceilings, so my 'stock shot' is trying to throw low n flat.. so if I'm naturally going to be more upright, a wide rail is better for me.

@@ViJt-oq5nq That's actually really helpful. I guess I'm in the tall and slightly lanky category and with that in mind I decided a moment ago to drop my stubbornness and just try out a couple of backward throws. I was actually really impressed with at what forces they were ripping out of my hand. But then when I tried to let the body naturally follow the disc around, everything went completely out of sync. So now I have a serious decision to make. Up to this point I've been very disciplined about sticking to one lane and shielding myself from all the information out there that contradicts what I've learned so far. Because going back and forth between a bunch of different approaches doesn't seem like a good way to build up muscle memory. But I guess that this is one of those fundamental things you just have to experiment with in the beginning in order to make an informed long term decision?

​​@@muchograndeyolatengo Yea, you absolutely cannot mix styles. Probably the largest issue I see with online Disc Golf is there ARE several throwing styles with extremely few personalities willing to just admit different styles can exist instead of claiming right or wrong. Specially when on the pro tour you can clearly see different throwing styles. Which one is the best? Probably gonna be dependent on the individual or where they're playing. Counterweight has a hyzer bias, arming the disc is hard on the shoulders, slingshot requires you become dominant with your non-dominant leg, lawn mower pulling has been deprecated.

Ok with that standstill backwards drill I throw farther and straighter more consistently than ever before. How do I work that backwards into a regular throw? I’m seriously throwing lasers backwards

By run up is 30 ft shorter than my standstill so I always throw standstill. Still trying to get to the magical 300. Tried the overthrow method. Didn’t really change anything. Stuck at 45 for arm speed

Could it be more about the acceleration that should reach its peak when the charging of the rest of the body has been oriented to the hand?

My question to you is, what if you're trying to help a well-endowed woman with her reach back and release.. that would help a friend of mine throw further than 60-70 ft.. in my opinion
