2022 Disc Golf Season Prep + Practice Tips

[@aklevin]

That music while you threw and this beautiful course made me feel like I was in a computer game.

[@cedarriverwoodworking]

1 min and 30 seconds into the first video i've watched on this channel and I have hit the subscription button. I absolutely appreciate that you highlight the disc in flight.

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

Wow, thank you so much! All thanks to my video editor on that one!

[@daniellemos9413]

6:00 in “don’t be hard on yourself , focus on what you got right “. That’s my problem ! Love the video

[@jerrysiadek4323]

Love watching you play or practice you are the reason I play at 61 yrs old and a number of others I've gotten to play disc golf love it too.

[@JBinUtah]

Loved this video Paige!

[@tymonjames8577]

Really enjoyed being a fly in the trees! 😄 Great practice tips. Thanks! I want to see you dial in that side-arm. Once you do, you will DEVASTATE the competition!

[@markbarbieri4243]

Paige has been making really great content lately. She is such an incredible asset to the sport. Her parents must be extremely proud of her.

[@travisfinucane]

I bring that positive vibe when my tree kicks go off into the woods. I want to work on my scramble game, anyway.

[@kjwaugh2364]

It was so cool to see you throwing forehand shots! Good luck in 2022!

[@jacobr57]

really have enjoyed throwing the stalker ! Awesome to hear how Paige thinks through her decision making process on disc choice .

[@wproct11]

This was so good Paige! Almost makes a person feel like you giving a private lesson. Pretty cool.

[@discgolfsurgeon27440]

I have 3 of your TS Buzzz from 2020. Can’t say enough good things about it. It’s a perfect stable version of the stock 👍🏾

[@trapbeeper2301]

don't let anyone get in your head. don't change up just keep pushin...

[@parkerexplores]

Love how you show all your shots, not just the good ones:) Thanks for all your videos and tips💪

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

We wouldn't be disc golfers if we didn't hit some trees now and then!

[@davelopez9161]

Great tips from a great athlete. LVC is the 24-27 of February. So, more like a couple weeks. Also, last info that I read, discs fly differently at sea level (where you are) then they do at 2000 feet (Las Vegas).

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

When we filmed it was farther away, this wasn't in real time :)

[@davelopez9161]

@@paigepiercediscgolf Oh okay. Thanks for the reply. And thanks for the video. It helps us beginners too. Something to work towards.

[@emmakateh]

I never actually go practice in this way. Always just casual rounds. Thanks for showing some behind the scenes! This has been inspiring and I’m ready to get out there!

[@rubylong8897]

Wow! So much good stuff🤩Thank you for sharing your process🥏⛓💥

[@kevinclark1068]

Everything about this video was dope. The tips, the insight, the circle that tracked the flight, camera work, and talk about some dope colors/plastics/swirls! Thank you for the content!

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

Thank you! My videographer / editor did such a great job!

[@LiftOperator52]

Love hearing your thoughts on the how and why you are making small adjustments. Such great insight and helps me know how my instinct compares.

[@aeparaflux]

Wow, those chains on Bakset 6 were the rustiest I have seen on a course! Good tips, Paige.

[@ReluctantAardvark]

Such an informative video. Sorry we didn’t see you in Thailand this year.

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

We were so sad to cancel our trip! I hope it was great!

[@ruckeddeadup]

"Don't be to hard on yourself" Everything is beautiful and you love everything, big Bob Ross vibes. Love the vids.

[@user-qj9bf7iw8v]

Awesome video! I just wished I had watched it before my round yesterday

[@moralpaniken]

Great video. alot to learn from and thoughts on disc selection. If you have time make more of these and bring a friend and look at both ideas of shoots. Good luck in 2022.

[@kylerebo5261]

Awesome video with some great advice. Makes me wish i wasn't covered in snow in northwest Montana so I could go throw! Also,. on the first hole those are some SICK undertakers!

[@resplendentdave7335]

Paige, I can tell you're excited about the upcoming season and you should be ! You're looking great !! Good luck and let's all have a fantastic 2022 disc golf season ! Can't wait !

[@brandon24816]

I have not watched this yet! But I know it will be good. Paige, you never disappoint with content. I love all of the processes you present because they have Purpose. Now I’m gonna watch the magic.

[@JoshJackson13]

Wow 😳 I noticed this weakness (power down hyzer flip tunnel shots) in your game and probably the only glad to see you working on it. I use a overstable mid pyro on Annie 4 hand full power for tunnels

[@Chloe_Alice__]

This was amazing!!! That is such a pretty course. The 2020 PP Buzz is my fav! ☺️ Also something I have been working on is slowing down my backhand drive I as well like to throw everything full speed so learning how to slow down and become more accurate is ideal lol keep it up Paige!

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

Thanks Chloe!! The Buzz is a go-to. Slowing down helps so much with accuracy!

[@jordanurbanski6400]

Love seeing more content im finaly joining league this sunday something ive always wanted to do and my first ace was with a PP Ti swirl stalker absolutely love that disc so thanks. Hope you have a great year.

[@Yelbomsirhc1]

Thank you so much. I really enjoyed that . When you play you seem so unbelievably good that it's nice to see how you still need to work on shots. I'm really excited to see you working on new lines and new shots, including more forehand. It is going to make you even more formidable!

[@Double2KK]

This is great content to show us amateurs how the pros prepare during their offseason and how we can use this content to improve our games.

[@davedisilvestri2759]

Focus on the GOOD! That's great advise for me. When playing and in life in general

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

It's perfect everyday advice and it helps out your mental game so much!

[@hendojr3296]

I love playing gator links but that pro pad is no joke lol I'm struggling from the AM pad!

[@patrickmulvehill292]

what a great video, love the tips on practicing both the mental and strategic parts of the game..Best of luck to you Paige hope you win your 6th.

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

I'm glad y'all enjoyed it!

[@seanbinder8316]

Great content Paige love the breakdowns and how you look at a couple of options on each hole.

[@eilishcummack7887]

Great video!! 😍 Some amazing tips that I will think about on the course 😊

[@BinkHitsBills]

I would say use the Zone for the approach anhyzer forehand at the end, it pans a lot nicer and never turns over into a cut roller. It’s perfect for that shot shape!

[@matthewwilson6788]

Great video! On your forehands, practice your follow through. Looks like you're sort arm-ing those flex shots. Good luck this season!!

[@parpalsdiscgolf96]

Beat videos out there teaching a lot of people good job

[@DazO9874]

Thanks Paige some great advice, I've just added a buzz and a pp stalker, so I've got some things to work on. Thanks also to Alicia (not sure of spelling) for all the coverage. Have a great 2022. God bless

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

Awesome I hope those work well for you!

[@discgolfillustrated2640]

This video reminded me of many important practice points plus introduced some excellent ideas to improve my game and help my students to improve and enjoy disc golf even more. Thank you Paige

[@susiepittman601]

Great, helpful video.

[@JupiterHikes]

Love this video!! Paige has so much insight and solid information, I hope you two make more of these!

[@jcjcjones33]

I love seeing the method Paige! Looking forward to seeing you play!

[@FlyersSTEM]

Great video. I feel like OB is your nemesis. Anything you should do to work on that? Does your clubbing up discussion have anything to do with addressing that?

[@tomdalziel4607]

Great video content Paige...thanks for emphasizing ANGLE OF RELEASE for shot shaping !!! Wishing you a MARVELOUS 2022 season !!

[@44shaner]

Sweet video! Thanks for the tips and the content! I also really appreciated the editing of circling the disc in flight so we could see. You're the best!

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

It was such a great touch, thanks for noticing!!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, lucky for you there's lots more to come!!

[@randallkornholio2971]

Awesome, Let's go!! Hopefully in the off season because we need more content right now. Jomez and Foundation seem to be the only ones releasing videos on a consistent basis right now.

[@tiedyejelly]

First off...Great Video!! Unique format and great editing! Non pro tip! When you were throwing the turnover forehand approach with a putter I noticed something that might help. I throw a Innova birdie on tons of lines like that. Tip: if you move back right foot more left on that approach it makes your mistake to never curl over and roll. Vice versa moving back right foot to your right! Hope it helps. I love throwing forehands that look like a backhand.

[@calebwalin8754]

I’d love to see you get that “Jerm throw” down. Working on that slow turn sidearm throw too.

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

I'm gonna need some lessons from the master!

[@kunle91]

@@paigepiercediscgolf How willing are pros to work with other pros? Would you have to work with a shot coach for example? Not that you need one, I'm just curious.

[@butleradventures5499]

That is one of my favorite courses to play to practice right wooded lines! Great content, Paige!

[@mawage666]

I've had Buzzz's since I started disc golfing. However, I've never thrown a Buzzz OS. I love having a disc that just goes straight and glides a long way. Favorite disc for hole 4 at BRP.

[@raidonbay]

I'm loving that we are seeing more vids and updates from pros, even in the off-season. I don't even realize the effort , but I know enough to greatly appreciate the work. Paige, do you ever practice, for example, roller only drives? (Or unconventional only)

[@steveackerman5066]

Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to get outside to practice.

[@stevencoleman3494]

I absolutely love Gator links. It was my favorite course in the area for a very long time. I have been going over to the new blackwater course lately and just saw you playing with Eric Oakley there a few weeks back.

[@thomasberglund]

Awesome! Beautiful practice course. Thanks for letting us tag along here on KZbin. Gotta love that hyzer flip up Sol shot. One of my favorite discs! Any chances of more Cryztal Fierces being produced this year though? :)

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

Thank you, I'm hoping so!!

[@alexanderjagell2963]

What a nice place!! I wish we hade more courses around here.

[@VEwing08]

I want that pink passion so bad

[@jeremybishir1475]

Paige your putter is pretty understandable. Do you ever use something other than the fierce when it’s windy? I use the fierce but struggle in wind.

[@SebM72]

She's a flat spin putter so she probably just adds more spin in the wind. Mainly hyzer putters that expose the bottom plate to the wind get affected by it.

[@zbstreams4272]

I really need to practice more on the corse and watch this video at the same time

[@gboone1167]

Fun, makes me want to practice! Love the high flick putter turnover shot, that’s my favorite shot to use in the woods!

[@CHAINHUNTER]

Great to see you preparing for 2022! What is the circle disc tracker you using?

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

It's a custom disc tracker that my video editor used!

[@CHAINHUNTER]

@@paigepiercediscgolf thanks & wish you the best on tour this year !

[@michaelcushman]

Wonderful video and content. Regarding more confidence with the sidearm, watching at about the 4 min mark, your steps start with hips facing the target. Consider starting more sideways, like Sarah H. The release point and angle can best be controlled if you minimize the hips changing from forward to sideways as you are winding up. Imo. Love watching you play. Your BH form is fabulous! Off the charts good.

[@LME1]

Lets frickin goooooooo

[@comegetsome9442]

Amazing content! Love the practicing quote! Practice until YOU CANT GET IT WRONG! Gator Links is a great course as well! My first tourney was at that course last year! If I run into ya dont make fun of me for fan girling! lol jk! Good Luck this year!

[@natebell4764]

The forehand flick upshot is one of the few things I am actually comfortable throwing with a forehand. If you haven't tried it before; I like to splay my index finger out toward the center and only use the middle to press on the rim. I feel more comfortable controlling the angle this way at lower speeds.

[@michaelnewell9662]

i recognized Gator links right away - welcome to the Emerald Coast!

[@arr64lima63]

How would you recommend practicing the timing of the release? The problem is either early release or grip-lock. What do you recommend? Looking forward to seeing you on KZbin in 2022. Best of luck on your quest for the 6th World title.

[@derekcooper8227]

Awesome video! I'm curious, what weights are the passions that you throw?

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

Thanks! They're max weight.

[@roymartinez3440]

You should try the crush for a good flex forehand or a power dead straight forehand

[@rafg.1320]

Great work on building those forehand shots

[@wacky295]

a true athlete . . .

[@callummy3250]

It's a fricken addiction Alyssa!

[@wisherb1]

on your scrabble approaches, why shy away from a hyzer approach? With it holding the angle the whole way it would be more consistent in all conditions. If not, then touch ani forehand is great for strech scrabbles. IMHO. great content and discussion.

[@sfincione2000]

Those passions must be like -4 high speed turn are they? They're really flippy.

[@paigepiercediscgolf]

Nope they're -1.0. The ones that faded back to the right are just incredibly beat in!

[@haydukelivesforeversomrtim8173]

Oh Paige well and good we are

[@davelopez9161]

Question: I'm 63 and have been disc golfing for a little over a year. I ball golfed for about 20. I actually played in a disc golf tournament just after thanksgiving. What I noticed is that everybody on my card (all over 60), after a while started making the same play. The low score person would go first, and then the rest of us would, unconsciously, try to duplicate his throw. Meaning, the low scorer was sort of controlling the play. How does one over come this unconscious play of following the leader. Especially when they make a bad shot and so I would do the same. Also, there seemed to be a lot of mental play going on. Especially on day 2 (2 day tournament) Like when I used to play ball golf and you would say stuff to your mate to try to get them to blow their next shot. How do you train your mental game?

[@elrod1240]

lets go champ!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@EricLeeStepp]

Is Paige living near Charlotte like all the other pros now? I wish I could get out and play but it's all ice and snow here in Ohio.

[@JoshJackson13]

4 hand I suggest you use the first angle you thru but use a 162 gram stalker maybe I use 162g firebird when you throw it on Annie it's more consistent and don't skip

[@jtaschler5020]

Do you muscle up to throw or do you relax your arm?

[@charlottekuhn1060]

Paige, what corse are you at? Also, is this your favorite course in the area or do you have another course you like better?

[@charlottekuhn1060]

As always thanks for taking the time to show everyone some of your practice tips. Tons of helpful tips.

[@JoshJackson13]

MY BEST ADVICE 400 ft tunnel hole. DON'T throw fairway drivers just use 180g meteor off the tee or a putter to 250ft then 200ft upshot trust me. Play to your advantages.
