[@peterscutti7078]

Paul is low-key one of the best disc golf teachers. This was really chill

[@joejohnson6209]

That was astonishingly good. So impressive. I’d like to see Paul drop in on some random local tournament, buy a putter there and beat everyone with just that disc.

[@johnhall9900]

Yes! Or with the player pack!

[@mikepesackis6439]

Paul could beat me with just the lid to a Pringle's can

[@mikehosier1239]

Please do this Paul!

[@JaredTG.]

Haha I always think that on my local courses. "I'm almost throwing my shoulder out slinging speed 7 disc while a pro could just float a putter to 10ft with no effort."

[@adrianenglish5989]

Pros dropping in on league night would be a good idea

[@marshallfike9537]

"Feel like I'm on kind of a hot streak right now" Yeah, you always are

[@jacktheiss4085]

You’d be surprised, even Paul McBeth is human. It feels so weird on the once in a blue moon that he’s off his game. But the thing is, him off his game is still better than 70% of pros on their A-game

[@Cody435]

@@jacktheiss4085 The only time I can think of him playing really bad was back a few years at usdgc other than that he's always great

[@patm3802]

This man is so damn good at disc golf

[@nataskaos]

Hey! Easy out there on that limb .

[@TheBorkka]

I'm always thinking I can do that too. But no, nobody can.

[@leksasdf]

Seeing paul laugh at an almost ace and smile a lot is heart warming, he's always so serious in tournaments.

[@gomd3rd]

I thought this was traditional golf lol. Pleasantly surprised. Gotta give it a try sometime.

[@55kolby55]

Just realize that this guy makes it look wayyy easier than it is lol

[@leksasdf]

Did you try yet? As Kolby says you were basically watching the Tiger Woods of disc golf or something lul

[@gomd3rd]

Haven’t found a public course around me. Kind of got discouraged after playing can jam. Still on my list of things to do. Have gotten better at regular golf though.

[@leksasdf]

@@gomd3rd That's great. Kanjam is kinda different since its with frisbees, those can be touchy. If you ever go by a disc store, pick up a luna and a buzzz and you're on your way to learn. Finding a course is helpful though. Hope many birdies for you though, discs or balls haha.

[@ryanwright4287]

Where are you located? Check out an app called Udisc it has a section that shows where every course in the world is! There are some courses where it’s pay to play but usually they are worth it for the 4-5 bucks a day.

[@MrKingsley16]

I never get tired watching Paul's teaching/practice videos or game rounds. Seems to be a true Class Act!

[@josephjohnson5116]

Paul's control is just out of this world.

[@JoseSalas-iyaoyas]

Wow! What a round with the putters! Thank you for taking the time to show us your thought process through that round! Again, I’ve been McBlessed!!!

[@connergarrett6346]

Whoa! This is my home course. So cool to see a pro play it

[@dwmichaels]

These are by far my favorite disc golf videos. While tournament footage is entertaining, this is like a 1x1 round with Paul McBeth, one of the best players in the world and I get his thoughts on how he's playing, what he's thinking. I can't thank you guys & Paul enough for taking the time to make these.... well... I guess I could thank you with cash, right? Promise, I'll go buy a disc from Foundation to say thank you.

[@FoundationDG]

Thanks so much Dave!

[@dickiebrewer168]

I wonder how many "perfect" rounds Paul has actually played. Probably more than I would want to know :) Glad you are making yourself more accessible to your fans. It's great for the sport.

[@user-uy3eq5hg1s]

McBeast is pure class. Great champion for the sport.

[@christofferhoff6669]

Started disc golf like 3 weeks ago, been enjoying this sport alot, thanks for all the tips!

[@lauri233]

I started 3 years ago and this is best hobby ever

[@sheldonmartin3768]

This was super fun to watch Paul shred this course with only putters. I miss seeing him in the foundation videos on the regular!!

[@YeSnOmAyBeSo8]

So true about the armspeed increase. Always was forehand dominate but once I knew I needed a backhand for the game I went down from drivers to putters. Helped so much!

[@jackheintz9747]

"So I'm not disc golf rich." Yes. Yes you are.

[@lsubeast16]

what a class act for the sport, cannot hate this guy.

[@Jamminn555]

Big thanks to Paul and Foundation for this AWESOME putter-only round. Great insights and walk-through from Paul. Thanks so much for posting.

[@FoundationDG]

Thanks so much!

[@justinpartridge226]

Thank you Foundation Disc Golf and Paul! Awesome to see how the best gets better!

[@johnhall9900]

I really like the laid-back sensibility of these videos, Foundation crew. Seeing Paul in no-pressure rounds is, IMHO, one of the better approaches to building rapport with us, the disc golf rich (LOL). I think the majority of disc golf viewership already knows Paul as an intense elite player, this allows to see the teaching mentor nice-guy side of him. There's just enough game help to be instructional without getting dry, and playing on a course like this (regular folks park course) allows it to be really relatable to journeymen amateurs like me. Good job, you guys!

[@FoundationDG]

Thanks so much! That’s exactly what we were going for!

[@tammyrogne1471]

Paul seems like a real nice chill kind of dude! You'd never know he's a "stone cold killer" on the course!

[@joebrannon8843]

I can’t explain how thankful I am for content like this!

[@fourcubed47]

Great idea for improving throwing form. Really loving the Luna for putting.

[@mikebordner3820]

Great video, and great to see Paul taking time to make more and more of these videos. Keep them coming

[@Jclary2004]

Thanks for the thought process! Love these breakdowns

[@gunchbandit4422]

Love it Paul. Keep doing your thing. Love watching you and all the other pros.

[@leo_7477]

Nice to see the roach getting some love! Ti is my plastic of choice!

[@PDubbbb]

This was a great video! Love seeing Paul go through a practice round

[@Coach.I_77]

Thank you for the video. Have just started playing some putter rounds and am enjoying it. New idea I saw on KZbin so it is cool to see even the best do it!

[@quazzydiscman]

Wow! Such an awesome video; fun, informative, impressive... Great work.

[@TJ.Lewisdale]

Great job guys! Quality work in the woods. Mid Atlantic disc golf RULES!!

[@nodl2509]

Paul throws those putters so smooth and that last basket definitely has a dent in it ! Always like these videos and seeing Paul is an added bonus.

[@FoundationDG]

Right?! I’m still shocked by how smooth his form is!

[@Zeth3n]

Thank you Foundation Disc Golf! Very informative video and great camera work. Looking forward to that Foundation face off.

[@izerman4261]

I love that the best disc golf player in the world still wants to grow and learn.

[@stevenosmond2168]

Thanks for the instruction during your practice Paul.

[@byuidan]

Thanks Paul! I appreciate your insight.

[@rachel2journal]

I appreciate the importance of learning the putters as a foundation to growing my game. Thanks!

[@FoundationDG]

I see what you did there 👍🏼

[@MrMatches616]

This man is my hero.

[@t.noeltrudell-kays2004]

Thank you for the video. I would like to see how Paul grips his putter when he throws it off the tee.

[@ryanmartin07rm]

He responded to me saying that he power grips all drives with putters except when putting.

[@Meddy_Medhed]

Keep'em coming! These are great videos! That new Grip bag is going to be perfect for these kinds of rounds

[@jonlissner2259]

Great video, fun to watch! Give us some more!.....please

[@ActBreaker]

I've recently tried putter only, putts only. It's working wonders on my putting upshots; especially, getting long upshot putts through gaps while still hitting it hard enough to get there.

[@gardenprojects]

I would love to see more videos like this with Paul explaining his shots/routine. Random challenge videos can be fun, but I want to get good lol.

[@codered3411]

Thx for doing this!

Paul swatting at the bugs is a big mood. Me too paul.

[@andrewkoastephens210]

”I think I’ve improved my game.” -Paul McBeth Yeah, well. Stick with it, Paul. Maybe someday you can play in a local tournament. Haha! Seriously, I think if McBeast threw a score of 18 he’d try to figure out how to improve.

[@Cody435]

Well think about it this way on one of his 18 under rounds he got an eagle and a par if he would have birdied that par hole he'd have an 18 and 19 under round on pro tour caliber courses which is crazy

[@IRRIGATIONKINGS]

Awesome song!

[@Commish2009]

Been too long since I threw a putter round. Thx for advice. Especially on a shorter course prep for big course.

[@markhumphrey8894]

Hole 17. Poppies, poppies, poppies! Yep. Land of Oz. He plays a game that most of us only dream about. Roach is a nice feeling disc.

[@justinw9192]

Roach is so underrated! I knew he'd be throwing one when he signed on with Discraft!

[@KaiserCal19]

I said the same thing. The Luna is just an overstable roach.

[@justinw9192]

@@KaiserCal19 Luna is also deeper dish. I prefer the shallower Roach, personally. I putt and upshot/drive with it!

@@justinw9192 I use the roach for both too. It's really my go to disc these days.

for all the locals, he just tore up your course w/ a putter.

[@justinw9192]

Yes, yes he did. And we like it.

[@justinw9192]

Actually, most of us play with putters because so much woods here in central VA...

[@michaelcarwile4624]

I played there Sunday!! maybe one day...

[@flo-bezee9547]

How much deet do you go through in a week? Are the mosquitoes bad there? Cause when I was up in Montana. I used a can about every 3 days.

[@johnnymars7873]

Wonder if the os roach was really a test big z Luna since it would be nearly impossible to tell without stamps and way it was filmed? I understand why it would want to be kept low key if so, just think it would be awesome to see some footage of players playing casual rounds with test molds or plastics just to get insight on their thoughts when trying new things they personally had a hand in designing.

[@jesseniethammer7422]

What grip are you normal throwing off the tee with a putter? Full power grip or more of a modified fan style?

[@FoundationDG]

According to Paul “pure power” grip

[@starkai6806]

I love Paul! It's weird but all my discs changed to discraft this season lol... i have no idea why ;P

[@chefkda]

Amazing round with just putters. A Foundation Face-off with Paul would be cool. He might give Zach, the 6x champ, some competition.

[@FoundationDG]

We did a faceoff with Paul a little while back! Check it out 🙌🏻

[@chefkda]

@@FoundationDG Thanks for correcting me. I've seen the Throw Everything Round. Wasn't sure if that was considered a faceoff.

Yes sorry! But there is more to come 😏 stay tuned

Paul, you gotta work on that all driver round next!

[@FoundationDG]

That sounds like a good Faceoff idea!

[@johnhall9900]

So, on this, my 2nd viewing, i noticed that while Paul talked about forehanding his Zones, there was only one shot we got to see of that. Moar plz!

[@Debbiebabe69]

Sometimes, when playing club golf, if my short game is off I just play the tee shot with a normal club then stick to the putter after that....

I love putter rounds any chance i get to throw putters Im excited

[@joshuafreeman9807]

Is there a mcbeth throwing tutorial?

[@cameronhubbard415]

Hi Paul. Where is the prototype and the Luna at compared to your roach in terms of throwing putters and why?

[@FoundationDG]

Not Paul, but I think I can help. He only putts with his Luna and doesn’t throw it currently kind of like he used to with his mcpro aviars. The Luna seems to have less glide and be slightly more overstable then the roach when I’ve thrown it. I think the main reason is he likes to throw his putters in more premium plastic so he can really get to know the one in his bag before it gets too beat up. Hopefully that helped!

[@cameronhubbard415]

Foundation DiscGolf thanks for vid, thnks for the response. Working out my preferred throwing putters, I have too many that I like, this helped. ✌️

[@ryanmartin07rm]

Paul, do you change your grip on shorter holes vs longer ones with putters?

[@FoundationDG]

He says he power grips all putter shots unless he is putting

[@ryanmartin07rm]

He throws his putters farther than I throw drivers. O.O

[@matthias19850]

@TheRaellz That or it means I started playing in November and don't have anything close to the arm-speed or technique he has. ;) My Valkyries fly really nice, and get a lovely S on them; my beast goes the same distance, but no S, my Leopard3 makes a nice shape, but doesn't go as far as the Valk. Max distance is just shy of 300 for me.

[@chasebarrett3801]

Ok guys we are going to play todays course with all putters because since I no longer bag innova the only driver suitable comes in your pdga membership pack and just like the innova mini Driver it also dubs as your disc marker.... I bet I could 3 hole 10 with my mini driver JS.

Anyone else concerned Paul is still elevating his game? :(

I think it's awesome that he is STILL LEARNING STUFF EVERY ROUND. I'm envious. I learn what not to do every round, LOL.

@@johnhall9900 That's also learning :p But if you have to relearn it every round, maybe play more? :D

Question for you Paul McBeth do you remember if practicing in Utah 1 years ago with a guy named Noah lantinga practice I think it was 2 years ago can't be a hundred percent sure but I'm his older brother and would love to play with you sometime in the future would love for you to come out to Michigan Orangeville Michigan ingrate our course is saints Francis Church course would be awesome

Paul, what grip are you using for backhand throws with those putters? power grip or fan grip. I have such a hard time throwing putters with power grip. Im also new to throwing putters off the tee. Doing excatly what you said and trying to work on my form. Thanks for the video!

What grip does Paul use when throwing putters

Power grip!

[@kyleweir689]

The normal player probably shouldn't power grip putters, though. It's very, very hard to control

[@ericbican4634]

Kyle Weir true but I was wondering, cause I throw putters power grip.

[@kyleweir689]

@@ericbican4634 It's tough! Try a little more fanned of a grip. Almost like you're holding a champagne flute.

[@justinw9192]

@@kyleweir689 depends on the putter. The Roach (and Zone, for context of this video) has a shallower-than-most rim and is actually quite comfortable to power grip (IMO). But I get what you are saying. Power grip psychologically makes you want to throw harder. The harder you throw, the more you sacrifice accuracy/control. Start out with a fan grip and work your way up.
