great to see Martin! he is a great guy and discgolf4you is my favourite shop to buy my gear.

[@dgspindoctor]

Couldn't agree more!

[@Vanbulance89]

Really appreciate the captions, adds a lot of context. Thanks for the video.

[@dgspindoctor]

Glad you like them! I thought of making a pic-in-pic commentary, but figured it sticks to mind better if you read and see, and not only hear and see.

[@Vanbulance89]

@@dgspindoctor 100% sticks better for me.

[@NickCarroll]

I love this hands-on video! So many people need that little bit of extra help, and this is a way of showing how to make changes in person.

[@dgspindoctor]

Yes, and this was only a 30-minute session. Relatively fast fixes here, but I would like to address the brace more thoroughly next time.

[@stuartwilliams2373]

Watching a player with a similar build work through this issue is adding a lot of clarity to your last video. Keep up the awesome content.

[@dgspindoctor]

Glad to help

[@austinnunnery4781]

I have chronic elbow dip and this video has made things super clear now. Thankyou Spin Doctor!

[@dgspindoctor]

Happy to help!

[@aztodd]

This is sooooo me! Heading to the field now. Thank you!!

[@J-Swan]

You are an outstanding coach. Thank you so much for your insights and instruction. Top notch coaching. Truly.

[@dgspindoctor]

Thanks.

[@krUsberry]

This is actually great. Thanks Jääni

Nö pröblem.

[@lancerobinson8738]

Fun to see the training in action. A good coach is invaluable.

[@williamfreshwater1139]

I love your videos! You are a tremendous teacher. I have been playing disc golf for about 3-4 years. In that time, I can’t remember a time where I heard actual “snap” while throwing. I went out to the field today and heard real snap on 75% of my stand still throws! The disc was flying out of my hand and flying smooth through the air. It was so cool! Thank thank thank you for this incredible video and lesson. I cannot wait to get back out and practice

[@dgspindoctor]

Great to hear! Thank you so much!

[@steveackerman5066]

I love this video because you see how to slow things down and work in minor adjustments with excellent results.

[@dgspindoctor]

Glad it helped!

[@JumboJabs]

Wow! What a difference. I need to go out to a field and do this exact same thing. Thanks for the help. Cant wait to get out.

[@dgspindoctor]

Yeah, but remember, this is a drill only. The actual "pull" is a bit different.

[@villejansson7124]

@@dgspindoctor This is probably the right drill for me, how is the pull actually supposed to feel like

[@MrSTAYUP33]

been my no 1 problem for a long time, makes me throw down but also its weird that it doesnt feel wrong but you get bad results so its definitely wrong. thanks/good vid

I’ll try this out. Thanks

This is how you find the snap. I hope other viewers will realize how important this video is!

[@happyboyeeeee]

Just an FYI, the audible snap is not what you are looking for. Back in the day, snap was a hot topic, but it was misrepresented by many as that audible snapping sound. That sound is not necessarily bad, but it’s arguably not great either. The only sound you’re looking to hear is the whoosh of the disc, and if you don’t hear that then something is wrong, but hearing it doesn’t mean everything is right either. More on the history of what is known as snap. The real snap was referring to point of tendon bounce at the hit. It’s what happens when you’re doing everything correctly, and isn’t a sound or really anything that’s aimed for. It just happens. There’s a couple old videos describing snap, but in none of those do they describe the sound or highlight anything to do with the snapping sound. Many years have passed since then, and far too many videos referencing the snapping noise. Until recently, a few videos and other discussion has been released describing what I’m trying to say here. Some discussion points out the audible snapping sound as being very bad, and accounting for distance loss versus gain. I’m not on either side of the audible snap sound. I’ve not seen enough evidence to argue if it’s good or bad. I will leave you with this though. Having been around and very close to many pros throwing short and long shots, some have an audible snap on release while others don’t. Those that do have an audible sound are typically long 500+ foot drives with some late release, which is common for those players. Paul McBeth is a good example here. Regardless of there being some snap sound or not, every pro’s shot had a very audible whoosh that could be heard over 100 feet away regardless of it being a short or long shot.

i need to try this as im having similar issues with my form

[@ernokoivistoinen]

but im afraid i will need actual one on one coaching to get over this obstacle :(

[@noahhardesty3035]

Can we get a breakdown of Aaron gossage back hand form ?

[@ChristopherLoverich]

Was stuck here forever. Recently really getting it, SUPER helpful to see you work him through the mechanic of bending that arm in (out and in). James Conrad is a good one to watch, he peaks reach back very early, and you can very clearly see his timing of when he bends in relative to his rotation.

[@dgspindoctor]

Yeah, but remember, this is a drill only. The actual "pull" is a bit different.

[@discgolfchainhigh]

This is the way.

[@dgspindoctor]

Somewhat, yeah!

[@nordicdiscgolferatrumble9430]

Mr Spin Doctor!! This "try to aim lower with the disc" is very interesting. I sometimes do it during fieldwork and it sometimes makes my throws come out pretty clean and at least seemingly nose down, BUT some say throwing at the ground makes your body autocorrect to avoiding hitting the ground thus cause a nose up airbounce, but im confused if I agree with that or not. What is your take on it? Would love if u could elaboratea bit! Thanks for a great vid!👌👍

[@dgspindoctor]

Here I'm adressing the position in the pocket, not the flight of the disc.

[@nordicdiscgolferatrumble9430]

@@dgspindoctor ok, but what does "aim lower" do for the throw/form?

[@dgspindoctor]

@@nordicdiscgolferatrumble9430 Because my student here was throwing from the neck height, I wanted him to exaggerate going much lower.

[@stonos282]

What do you mean by pushing down? Is that pushing on the foot trying to straighten the leg or collaps over the foot?

[@dgspindoctor]

Collapse your body over the leg. If you push up, you do it too early. Go down.

[@ChrisSolarski]

If you come to Zurich, I'd gladly pay for a similar lesson. 🙂

[@dgspindoctor]

I'm glad to be invited and paid by a club or individual to give lessons

[@ChrisSolarski]

@@dgspindoctor Let's do it. 🙂 I'm sure that I could gather a few other local players. Let me know.

[@dgspindoctor]

@@ChrisSolarski We can discuss the details on my Instagram. PM.

[@Gh0stz9211]

Nice video! He looks like he will be bombing soon. For the stance, do you want to kind of be in a football type stance? Or similar athetlic stance? I realize I've been pulling with only my arm and am trying to involve my body now

[@dgspindoctor]

Go low, soft knees, butt out, nose over toes. The arm is the only thing you need after brace.

[@yogibehr77]

Do you do 1 on 1 lessons online?

[@dgspindoctor]

Sadly, I can't devote my time to those at this point. I hope it's possible in the future.
