[@Vhreez]

Can we just take a moment and appreciate how much more comfortable Ricky has become on camera.

[@Pullapelle]

Yeah, he is super smooth now a days and extremely fun to watch.

[@haydnsmith4650]

Can we take a moment to realize it’s been solid for a couple years now and we don’t need to still comment this on every video of Rick

[@masterp69]

yeah, he has come a long way since those first bouts with McBeth.

[@DocSportello1970]

Yes, he has come a Long Ways since the infamous "Pineapple Express" video. You remember, the one that was quickly took down at the request of his Sponsors?

[@caseybunker4521]

Best human for teaching people on camera

[@filamacan]

[@baldjustice393]

Big fan Rick, thank for the tips! Can't wait to see you in Michigan at DGLO!!!

[@joshuabeaty9363]

Thanks Ricky. Tip 5 is very helpful for me.

[@dbak322]

Ricky is the man! Thanks brother

[@TwannGoDisc]

I've seen damn near every putting video I feel like & this is by far the best I've seen. Should have known once I saw Rick. I need to get surgery on my wrist so I can get the 100% range of motion. It's definitely holding me back.

[@madammo7786]

Ricky has gotten so much better at public speaking and explaining himself on camera. Nice job!

[@matta.4816]

Thanks Ricky! We’re rooting for you!

[@joeditta2321]

And the unsolicited, unmentioned tip #6: Practice like there's no tomorrow. Thanks for this helpful video, Ricky!

[@dynamicdiscs]

Always

[@TFDY-Disc-Golf]

You're the man Rick!

[@joshuaheck6495]

Great stuff from Sockibomb! The Dagger is 🔥🔥🔥!!

[@papigringo5692]

Thanks, Ricky! I'll be trying all these tips out next time I make it to a course.

[@scottgaringer]

On point advice from the people’s champion. I just used a couple of these ideas had a fantastic afternoon of putting. ⚡️

Thank you Ricky man, you’re a legend with those new generals at the euro tourney. 🎉

[@schilkeman]

This instructional video is very timely for me. I have been struggling! Thank you Ricky and Dynamic Discs.👍🏻

[@wizardsyndicate5505]

Dagger was my first putter and actually my second and third! Love it as a putter!

[@chazsmith4351]

Nice video rick, looking forward to a follow-up one where you explain to some of the newbies what the wind does to a putt so that they would know what to do in terms of aiming for which chain.

[@rogernock7865]

Go putt in the wind and find out

[@jesselough]

This was so helpful! Really love this. I’m 100% here for more Ricky tutorials.

I was so excited to try these out, I was putting this morning before I had coffee. Big change!!! Thanks for breaking it down Ricky. Really helpful.👍👍👍☕☕

[@CentralOSurvival]

Thanks Ricky!!

[@PJ-gg4zh]

As a new player I greatly appreciate this video

[@contextiscool7308]

Awesome tips, Ricky! I’m fired up to get some putting practice in now! Thanks for putting this together, Dynamic Discs!

[@HarrisonStaab]

These tips are simple but so helpful. Thanks for breaking down your form! I can already tell these will help me develop more consistency with my putts.

[@Deanvandam]

At 56 yrs old, I just purchased a cheap beginners set. This is a great video on putting. I will use these tips to learn to putt. Keeping it simple and not over explaining. Thank you. I subscribed to your channel. What’s the difference between a spin putt and push putt?

[@lukasvyvial9686]

Push putt is what ricky does. You are pulling the disc by shoulder from bottom of your body. Spin putt is when you use elbow by your primary power😊.

[@Sketto8]

Excellent video. Short and direct - the best kind of advice video. Thanks, Rick.

[@DUMBPUBG.]

This is very helpful

[@mattp4007]

My disc golf course is inside a dog park that holds group exercise classes. Thanks Ricky for the aiming tips

[@ERICWAGNERSLUCID]

A true “master”! (And great commentator)

[@jensenmccue494]

Could be one of the best putting advise vids ever. From probably the scariest guy to be one up on with 3 to play.

[@Jamminn555]

Super clear, super helpful putting tips from one of the world's greatest players and putters. And a huge YES to Daggers!! Thanks so much, Ricky! And thanks to Dynamic Discs!!

[@JoshJackson13]

Thank you Rick for being a awesome. You turned my life around 2.5 years ago I'm so much stronger now.

[@gavincathie9516]

Ricky posts a "beginners guide"... Me already in MPO immediately clicking the video and writing down every word he says

[@zakksimoneau8401]

Nothing wrong with getting tips from one of the best in the game

[@BruceWayne-jq1tn]

Great tips

[@enricdepablo3488]

Great tutorial

[@billbaker7114]

Excellent tips! Thank you!

[@alexgweiser]

Ricky's got a powerful putt. This was helpful. I totally forgot to include him in my putting video! 🙃

[@TheShadowOfTheJoker]

Ricky you are a legend! I'm rocking your signature destroyer in my bag one of my favorite discs as is the guy himself :P

[@paulrayburn9345]

Great, very informative, Im going to practice that , I've tried the turbo putt , its good, but not easy

[@putterparker]

Awesome video Ricky. Keep them tips coming! 😀

[@SimonT54]

How do you hold a disc? Great video thank you!!!

[@aarondoliana6628]

Amazing!

[@attackingtheinjustice.2324]

Thx Ricky. They don’t call you Sockibomb for nothin’. Great tips.

[@ThatguyDiscGolf82]

Saved this video, my putts no matter how close wanna hyzer in and usually miss

[@cryptotex420]

Great tips and congrats to dynamic for bringing such a great talent to your team!

[@tankthis85]

Just awesome tips

[@Ashtonegood]

Awesome Ricky this will help a lot

[@608tttv]

Rick did one of these but he explained about going under a board and over the next board in front of you and that help me with so many strokes

[@quproduction1107]

Thanks for the concise explanations. This is a great tip video. You are great in front of the camera. Keep up the great work.

[@InbredJed82060]

This entire disc golf season i struggled with putting as my ego was too big to listen to anyone. After watching this i practiced on my basket and my putting SIGNIFICANTLY improved immediately. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@SamuelGrubbs]

Super helpful stuff!! Thanks a lot!! 🙌

[@Djkold]

Thanks, Ricky :)

[@caiograndi8968]

More videos like this if possible:)

[@dillertheskiller7550]

Great video short and right to the point and easy to go back and rewatch. Now put some slammers on the market for me to buy! :)

[@herbertgoober]

Wow, Ricky is an excellent teacher. Clear understandable instructions in manner that keeps your attention.

[@gregrussell1787]

Late to this... But I did just switch to Daggers! From the out of production Lat64 Spike. Complete opposite putter in every way. Love the float. Love how they just drop at the end of the flight. Going from super low profile to a beefy dagger w/ a bead? Not as big a deal as I thought.

[@jasonsutherland3496]

My favorite pro.

[@evanjohnrobasci7356]

RICKYYY!!!!

[@theaquariantv]

Awesomeness

[@77nizzova53]

I'll always accept a tip From Ricky!!!!

[@jeffgood1580]

Perfect

[@jcunclejim1265]

Focusing on a specific chain link is key! I have chains by my TV, in my bathroom etc. so I get used to focusing on individual links! this also helps eliminate Basket anxiety!

[@jontsa8752]

Well that is... strange 😂

[@justinlongley9058]

Arms give you the Line... Fingers and wrist do the spin. Great great great.... love this advice. Coming from one of the hardest working pros. Thanks Ricky and Dynamic Discs!

[@theaquariantv]

Thank you

[@keithmiller9369]

Thanks DD for throwing 10 million at my favorite Pro Disc player. Congrats Ricky on the money to secure your future in the sport,life, and success this year.

[@jonneliukkonen1869]

great vid

[@breakoutoutdoors1934]

Right on

[@Nickeeefy]

Lots of great tips you dont see from the other pros basic tip vids!

[@looneyluigi9661]

What putters do you use? And do you prefer them to weight heavier then your distance disc or the same or lighter?

[@playwaterpolo]

Really good from a physical education standpoint. Starts with footwork to fingers, gross motor to fine motor, 4 critical points that stand alone to look like a putt, and an emphasis on accuracy with a little focus on timing/mentality. The only thing I think is funny is that Ricky spins his hand off line, not really 'shake hands frozen at the basket'. I can putt either way, sometimes freezing helps me aim when I'm throwing my body into it and missing my arm plane, but when I'm feeling it I can spin my arm way outside and nail the chain link I'm looking at.

[@travisov]

Tip #5 ftw (for the wind)!

[@Jono.]

I think Ricky’s got the camerawork down these days. Great video DD team!

[@andreashoppe1969]

Whenever I am at the discgolf place I practice nothing but putting and approaching. I don't care too much about my drives yet, but my goal is to make like 95 percent of my C1 putts. Sometimes I even putt 4 hours straight. Withing 7 Meters I make all of my putts now, from 8- 10 I make 80 percent perhaps. My farthes putt was 15 meters but that was still tough for me. . Putting videos are what inspire me a lot. Nothing is as satisfying that disc hitting the chains

[@TheCrimsonFear]

All right, so I like spin putting or at least what I feel is spin putting, I'm still new. Though I'm a tad confused on the wrist movement that's talked about. Should I be turning my wrist inward and then "shaking hands" with the basket as I toss or keep the wrist straight and static the whole time? Any input from you guys would be awesome, thanks in advance!

[@barrypeirson3710]

I would say keep it straight as possible the whole time. If you rely too much on cocking the wrist you will find that you miss right or left. Get spin with finger tips and how you hold the putter. If you follow Ricky's too where the power is generated with the legs you will find you will get to the basket without tons of spin.

[@slighthyzerpro7074]

Tip #1 (a) Throw your drive 540 ft and land 15 ft from the basket.

[@jontsa8752]

Yep, eliminates the putting game altogether 😂

[@iThrowFrisbees]

I just got some Sockibomb Daggers and there amazing

[@jupiter2089]

Hey Ricky, quick question, where when you say that you are aiming for a link in the center of the basket how high up are you aiming? I ask because recently I've played a couple tournaments in a row with baskets whose chains didn't catch putts. So, my putts that I was hitting dead center, with pace, were either pushing through the center of the basket or hitting the pole and bouncing straight back. However, your putt seems to hit dead center and just drop in. Is that just because of your nose angle on your putt? And, if so, what you suggest to someone playing with baskets that you can't trust? Should I change my putting style to drop in the cage, or keep aiming dead center but maybe change the nose angle of my putt? Thanks!

[@prestondier7046]

Rick’s the best at sharing his secrets. Now we just have to work as hard as he does and we can be millionaires.

[@hoff0839]

Can we talk about that thumbnail for this video please?

[@savageshotz8722]

He's good

[@michaelking1059]

Great VIdeo....one other thing I would've liked to be addressed was "Grip"

[@DrFlemingR]

Gonna need to train my raptor legs after watching this

[@NatiHighLife]

Lets Goooooo

[@daynonweaver292]

That might work on C1X. My long putts, because of my wrist, consistently miss. I even missed from 20' because of it. And on top of that, I'm playing in 15mph winds with 25 gusts on a High-level course.

[@DDPMonster]

Raprot legs has to be the #1 tip

[@rxs5527]

Tip 6- tip the front of your disc down 3-5% while maintaining a neutral throw. based on wind speed imo.
