Awesome video...please keep doing videos where we watch "over the shoulder" views of you demonstrating the concepts. Your authenticity is fabulous...the best coaches aren't typically the best players. Keep up the amazing work!!

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Thanks Roger. We plan on using this format a bit more.

[@toryroberts1343]

That intro one billion percent had no right being that amazing and hilariously AWESOME.

I've had so many "that disc was going in if" shots that I've lost count. Love the editing on this one!

You are by far the best coach on KZbin. Great content!

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

The highest praise. Thank you so much!

[@lyricalenthusiast9659]

As a new player, I find your videos super helpful and just a joy to watch. It's awesome that you guys don't cut out mistakes or imperfect throws. Makes us newbies feel better knowing that even skilled players don't always have perfect shots. Keep up the good work, I look forward to your next video 👍🥏

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Haha. 80k would be ridiculously awesome!

[@Juliano_DJOL]

100% agree with u! Strategy is just as, if not more important than form! I've looked all over for books and videos on this topic and improving my mental game. I've found and read a few good sports and ball golf books that talk alot about this but never see much disc golf media on this. Best book I've found so far is Mind Gym which is a book about the mental side of sports, def worth the read!

[@t0m1337n]

If you still havent fixed you missing putts to the right, look how you adjust your left shoulder to be a little bit more back on the ones you hit. After seeing someone talk about that on KZbin, this worked really well for me at least. Anyways, love the format!

[@williamburk5818]

At the mini I went to on Monday I saved so many strokes due to risk management. I haven't been playing a lot lately and I've been trying to make changes to my backhand form, which is just destroying my accuracy at the moment. And I was pretty tired, but I really wanted to go out and play that day. Despite feeling totally out of touch with my backhand form and my putting being off, I at least didn't shoot my worst round ever because I was playing safe and within my limits (which were especially limiting that day). I think you bring up a great point about shot selection/risk management becoming a bigger discussion. I was definitely affected by the importance placed on form. Been playing a year and trying to work on form, then a year in I actually play my first mini and I get my ass handed to me because I don't know how to make the right decisions in the heat of the moment. The way I put it i needed to start focusing less on the "disc" and more on the "golf."

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

I hear ya on the accuracy portion. I’ve been trying to get the distance gains in the field and the consequence of that is less accurate at the moment. But we can always go back to accuracy when we dial the form in.

[@MrHardgabi]

love the intro

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Props to Mikey.

[@Juliano_DJOL]

Well now we know where u spend the most time...your throw and form is on point! But u gotta get that putter going man haha! I used to be and still struggle with the opposite, I putt almost everyday and can def get the putter going, but can def struggle off the tee sometimes! Its hard to keep both up to par tho!

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Haha. I had only worked on backhand drives for the few months leading up to this video. Since then I have been putting everyday. I'm on day 21 today. It's getting...better haha

[@natebell4764]

I think the only other people who talk about the decision making and shot brake down on the course is Uli, and Stokley. Every time I watch this kind of content I immediately shave strokes. I hope color coding will help these ideas stick, even after I throw one of those really bad shots. The kind that make you question why you even play.

[@twofifty6]

Sorry but I had to stick around until the end. I can’t miss the sweet outro music!

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

5 minutes you'll never get back. Sorry about that

[@LetsTryVlogging365]

Interesting way to thing about your play and your skills 😊 I just had an absolutely red round at our local league the other day 🤣 so i feel ya on the missing right but at least it's a consistent miss 😉

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

When the putt is off everything is yellow/red. Lol. Sucks

[@nlcke3265]

Thanks for the mini movie. 😂

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

You’re welcome. More mini movies to come

[@timw.9987]

Could you do a video on snap and how the disc comes out of your hand when you throw backhand? I hear it in all your throws and when you throw it seems effortless with a ton of snap.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

That one’s on the back burner. I’m trying to work out all my talking points and work through the concept because there is a lot of varied information on it out there.

[@eliarnold6497]

[@odedgegaming182]

I had a putt at league today on the first hole from around 35 feet, which I would go for normally... if the basket wasn't on slope halfway up the hill. I didn't go for the putt because the terrain color was orangish-red!

[@Juliano_DJOL]

Maybe you cld play a course with a little more OB or Hazzard or you cld film like 3-4 rounds in different conditions or at different courses then take the highlights of the shots that were extremely hard, played safe, laid up, etc...putting too, I see so many newer players miss from 30' for bird, then '20 for par, then 25' for bogey...etc! You know what I mean its happened to all of us! The putting is one huge thing in ball golf, like on longer putts they are mostly trying to stay close and not run way by the hole!

[@Js-rq9uj]

yo my man maybe try a little less wrist curl with your putt, let the forearm generate the power and the line and make the wrist do a little less, just was practicing with that in the backyard. been wondering exactly how much spin I really need and whether I should rely more on elevation for distance. gotta make some compromises when spushing.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Good look. I actually advocate for what you said but have had zero time to practice and haven’t given a thought to it. Gonna change here soon though.

[@Discgolfology]

Love you

[@professorb3744]

If not now, when?

[@cutrolldiscgolf]

I can tell you exactly why you are missing right. Think of your elbow as a door henge. If your elbow is pointed to the right it will cause the disc to miss right if you are late on your release. To fix this try to keep your elbow down so there is less possiblity of being off your line. It feels really awkward at first if you are used to what I call "Door Henging" but I promise, keep that elbow down and hitting your lines will become so much easier. Let me know if this helps.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

That makes sense! I hammered keeping my elbow up on drives so that’s probably where I developed it. I am on day 7 of rebuilding my putt and will look at this during today’s practice!

[@cutrolldiscgolf]

@@OverthrowDiscGolf let me know how it works out.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

It does work! I had actually fixed it a different way without thinking about it but o believe you are right!

[@cutrolldiscgolf]

@@OverthrowDiscGolf Ayyy!!! I don't think it's the only way people should putt, cause there are a lot of pros that door hinge and putt really good. I guess it's whatever works better for you. Paul McBeth is one of the best putters and he keeps his elbow down on the release. I actually thought about doing a video on my channel about it cause it literally took at least 5 strokes or more off my average. One practice routine I like to do with it is at my local course, the practice basket has this spot where there are 2 trees side by side and the gap is exactly the width of the basket. The best way to practice in my opinion. I'm curious to see where your putting is a month from now.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

@@cutrolldiscgolf I looked at Paul’s putt before I went out today. Prior to today I was pulling it down like Paul. Now I am pulling it more in like my old spin putt. I actually set up with my disc up like Paul’s which naturally pulls the elbow inside the body a bit. Hard to explain via text but you’ll see it if you keep tabs on the vlog.

[@emmittkison2321]

Bro those putts are looking rough. Love the video though. I beat so many of my friends because they have the 'birdie at all costs' mindset

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

I’ve decided to combine all my putting knowledge into one major technique. So far it’s not working.

[@professorb3744]

@@OverthrowDiscGolf personally, I’ll aim right side chains expecting the disc to hyzer in…but then I end up putting it where I want it and missing right. So I’ve been focusing on aiming center and letting my subconscious do the adjustment for the hyzer on longer putts

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

@@professorb3744 my problem is that I haven’t practiced putts since making our putting video and now I have the technique from 4 styles in my head none of the muscle memory from any of them. Not a recipe for success unfortunately
