How I Train for Collegiate Disc Golf
nobody beats the raptor
That final throw with the cicada was 👌very nice. I was guessing it went 320 ft.
If you want a disc that turns, star roadrunner is my favorite by far. Straight flyer is the undertaker (esp) or Titanium. Road runner for someone who throws 300 ft will most likely be dead straight and the undertaker might finish a bit harder.
Got two new discs last week.. I'm enjoying my valkyrie.. But i can't get the passion to do what i want it to
Love that! I used to throw a Valkyrie! And still throw the passion
@@mayadisc my leopard is my go to driver.. But I'm pretty basic with my play style..
That is a very good question. 😂
What’s your top three ?
@@mayadisc Maybe the Inova Gorgon. (I'm getting old and my arm speed is slowing down. Kastaplast Berg in K1 soft. And some slow arm speed fairway. Still nut sure about that yet
Nice shot. Great flex. :)
This is next level!
Where both disc new or used? Types of plastics? Weights? Hard to compare without that information.
Passion used, cicada new Passion ESP, Cicada z plastic I’d have to check on the weight. I’ll get better at these videos, this was just my first disc comparison video. I’ll be sure to add that next time, thanks for the feedback.
What more proof do you need then that to see that we should all be throwing seven speeds. Congrats on throwing a 7 speed further than an 11 speed!
This was all incredibly relatable and helpful. You describing your putting spoke to what I've been dealing with so clearly.
Thank you so much! I’m glad to hear that you can relate! I’m hoping to create a community where we can all learn and grow together positively!
Congratulations on the new rating! Shows the hard work is paying off. Keep up the journey. :)
Thank you! 😊 I appreciate the kind words and support!
Those fly different than my OTB glow wave.
we walk so that the pros can run, its really super generous of us
😂😂
I would like to congratulate you for DDO. Playing every round above your rating. Between this and US Women's, your rating should jump next update. 😊
@@MrBearGolfn thanks so much ☺️ I hope so!
Freaking great form. I struggle with backhand so much.
Thank you!
Good lyrics 🎶
Great job! What’s the song name??
It’s open arms by Gavn!
Perfect
Thank you!
Stunningly wonderful pretty lady
elit women throw 500ft
Yes, but there are many women on tour that throw in the 300 range.
maybe 2-3 do it consistant.. thats not many at all..
Lol no the don't. There's like 5 women that can break 400 on the course.
I watched your video several times… I went out to Boggy in Niceville FL … our home town…I really improved my distance. I am 60 and just started disc golf in December of 2023. I love it!!!
That’s amazing! Thank you for sharing! I’m so happy that you found disc golf. It’s truly an amazing sport ❤️
Killer 1st round!
Thank you! Today wasn’t as great, but hoping for a better tomorrow!
I think I Gyatt something in my eye
Good aim! 😅
Thank you!
Discraft has the -1,1 down out of any of the brands that I have thrown. Crave would be the closest after these two.
I liked how my Passions flew, and had a few in the bag last season. But, I couldn't get over the beaded rim. Went to Craves and never looked back. 175g Glow Crave goes straight, 167g Plasma Crave for the s-flight and 150g Fission Crave for when I need something flippy. The fission is really fun getting the slow flip to where it juuust starts riding right at the end of the flight.
The beaded rim throws me off too sometimes. Yesterday when I was playing my round during DDO, I kept early releasing my passion because the rim kept throwing me off. I’ve heard the crave mentioned a few times now. I’ll have to try it!
@@mayadisc You'll be pleasantly surprised.
Using an x step for forehand is totally unnecessary, but the leading with the elbow tucked in tight the whole time, forcing the elbow to be the pivot point and bear all the torque from the whipping action, is the worst advice. That's exactly what caused Eagle McMahon's elbow injury. Caroline Henderson has one of the best tutorials on throwing disc golf forehands - ua-cam.com/video/1h5N1bR189U/v-deo.htmlsi=EiQOhMnQxVCbYfOB
Agreed that Caroline has good forehand form, and I believe she comes from a softball background, so she knows how to throw. It's also very similar to what Scott Stokely teaches.
Agreed. Watch Ricky, Ryan Sheldon, any sidearm pitcher. Their elbow is not tucked. Also, hips need to be forward when throwing.
I see an Ace coming on that hole soon. :)
I’ve never aced so I’d be stoked!
Worthless video
Good video. Learning tips for all to learn. Fun to see our small improvement adding up. Good Luck to you this weekend.
"Your small improvements". I've got to look closer before hitting send
Thank you! I hope there was some value of some sort for you!
Love the content. The thing about the Passion if you do a side by side comparison of a 8 speed disc from another manufacture the rim (wing) are not even close. The passion's rim (wing) is closer to a 6 speed discs by other manufactures? You need to compare the Cicada VS River Vs Maul Vs IT Vs FD they all have very similar rims (wing) and feel.
That’s good insight! Thank you! I’ll consider looking into those molds!
It's essentially a similar flight to the Crave. Both are great discs that have a nice tight S flight with a forward to left finish Currently I don't throw my craves as I'm working on removing accidental anhyzers cuz it'll hold the turn right into a lake 😂 and the Cicada will probably donthe same lol
I’ve heard a lot of people like the crave! I’ve never thrown it though! I’ll have to check it out one of these days. Good luck with that! I’m sure you’ll get it sooner than you think 😊
Oddly impressive how loud the microphone can be, just got past the two minute mark when music stopped playing and you could actually hear over it decently still.
Yeah we messed with an audio setting that we don’t usually mess with when we edited it & it made my mic volume at the same level as the music. It’s been killing me. I feel bad about it, but there’s not much I can do to fix it except delete the video & reupload it with the fixed audio. At this point, I’m just trying to take it as a learning experience & do a better job adjusting next time. Hopefully it’s not completely unbearable.
Throwing low and into the ground is usually a sign you're pulling through too quickly or leaning forward during your reachback, which usually leads to being off balance on your plant leg. Notice your ground shot with the Passion you literally fall/off your plant foot. Good content/editing. Keep up the good work 👍
Great insight! Thank you! I’ll look into that! 😊 I appreciate the comment & im glad you enjoyed the video !
Never lose your passion... or your cicada 🤙
I’m in it for life at this point! Thanks for the comment 😊
I bag the Cicada and the jawbreaker Z Flex Passion. They definitely have different flights, but I like them both.
What kind of shots do you like to use your cicada on vs your passion? For the passion, I usually throw it for straight flights & or lower ceilings. I’m gonna put the cicada in my bag though. I’m just gonna have to learn it some more.
@@mayadisc The passion is a straight shot for me. The z flex plastic is more overstable and has a big fade at the end. Cicada has that nice turnover. The wind behind me I am throwing the cicada, the headwind is the passion. I ordered the Paige Peirce Drive. 11 5 -1 2. I am looking forward to throwing it.
@@fisherguy45 oh dang you got your hands on one of those? Is it the prototype? I saw they only released 50. I was gonna order one but saw it too late. I definitely want to try the drive!
@@mayadisc Yup, the prototype 😊. They released a big supply of them on Friday to the retailers. Might be worth a check to see if they are back in
@@fisherguy45 oh cool, didn’t know that! Thanks!
Great video. Music was a tad loud at parts
Thank you! Yes I agree. I’m usually better about adjusting the music, but didn’t move it down enough this time. I’ll be sure to double check it next time.
You should turn down the music it is way to loud
Yeah this one the music is a little loud. We try to turn it down anytime we use music , but it didn’t get turned down enough like we thought we had done. I’ll fix it for the next one.
Two great discs but the cicada is my choice right now in the bag.
I’m with you on that one!
I throw a lat64 River, which seems very similar to that cicada, and I think its my most thrown disc. So I completely get why you like it. Do you throw discraft only?
I’ve heard great things about the river! I throw a combination of trilogy & discraft primarily. I have a few mvp in the bag & one innova disc I throw.
Cicada is my favorite fairway driver
I fell in love with it today!
What's the comparison of the hand feel between the 2? I've tried the Passion but do not like the feel of the rim. Thank you for the review. And Congratulations on your new PR.
Thank you! I actually ended up throwing my wave after I finished recording and got to 338 so I made an ever bigger PR than I showed in my video which was exciting. I think I do like the grip I can get on the cicada better. I felt I was able to hold on to it better. I’m not a huge fan of the passion’s rim either, but I can always rely on it to go straight even after it’s been beat in which is why I still throw it. It’s definitely handy to have but the cicada felt great.
Nice PR 😮 Looks like the your form is really coming together. You should try the Discraft Mantis next!
Thanks! I actually threw my wave after the video was over and got to 338 so I’m pretty stoked my distance is growing! I’ll check that one out!
@@mayadischave you tried a Valkyrie? If you're at 300+ power they should be effortless distance for you.
@@martinmartins7703 the Valkyrie was actually the very first disc I ever had. My dad gave it to me when I was a little girl & then I had one again when I first started actually playing as an adult. It’s been a long time since I have thrown one, but I’d definitely consider it! When I started out the Valkyrie used to be over stable for me so that shows I’ve come a long way haha

LFG MAYA RINGGOLD DISC GOLF!!!
Cool idea!
I thought so too! I hope it picks up traction.
Super neat. I happen to live a crossed from a soccer field. Perfect for me.
That’s perfect! Now you have the ability to play anytime!
Unfortunately they don't let us throw a ton on soccer fields down south. The divots and spots where we throw would get destroyed
Oh darn, that’s unfortunate. We asked them permission to use the fields, and our local club didn’t have an issue with it. I’m thinking this concept will be more popular overseas vs stateside because of soccer being more popular & have more public access to fields.
how do throw 400 feeet
Practice and patience. It was a long process to go from 320-350 feet max drive to about 400-420 consistently. The biggest things I have changed is my nose angle and committing in to my brace.
Timing and athletic ability.
Interesting concept..' Thank you for introducing it to us. Defiantly go give it another on a calmer day. I'm sure your scores will improve.
It is! I hadn’t heard of it before yesterday, but I figured it would be a good content opportunity especially while it’s being freshly introduced. We will probably try again one of these days (hopefully with less wind). Thanks for watching 😊
Check out DG Spin Doctor. He has a slightly different take on forehand, and who knows, might work for you. Good luck :)
