- Have you ever had that moment you wish you could just take back when it comes to your game? It could be an errant putt, a rogue drive, or an upshot that felt more distant than parked. We all make mistakes in our game, but the key is how do we bounce back from them?
I recently had a friend film my tournament rounds, and what started as a success all went sideways after one terrible mistake. This mistake haunted me throughout the round, and I want to take you through what I was thinking during and after the mishap occurred. What was the mistake? You'll have to watch to find out!

I would love to watch a series on practicing all the way up to tournament day! Big fan and I love all your videos! P.S. I'm definitely going to try the dancing technique lol seems like that would work. I like to think it's all about staying loose and confidant out there.
I second this. That video would be amazing
I know it is quite randomly asking but do anybody know a good place to watch newly released series online?
@Joziah Bridger ehh I'd suggest flixportal. You can find it through google =) -leighton
@Leighton Marcellus Thanks, I signed up and it seems to work =) Appreciate it!
@Joziah Bridger No problem :)
Damn what a great thought process. I've got the mental fortitude of a gravely abused gerbil so I wish I could incorporate more of this. I haven't even finished a round in weeks because I keep getting too furious and leaving.
For me having just started playing not quite a year yet, If i miss something that I know i cant "expect myself" to make, i shrug it off and say "well I guess that's why im not a pro". Go watch Eagle on round 2 of Waco. It can happen to the BEST. Only thing else i can think of is, i got into this sport to Have Fun, and we sometimes have to remember(even in tournaments) is to have some fun while we can. Thanks for the video.
Concur. I’m 1mth into DG and can’t thank my coworker enough for turning me onto this game. I expect EVERY round to be Fun and fulfilling so the only bad days I have are the ones I can’t play. Lucky for me there’s a course almost in my backyard to play after watching Robbie’s YT vids for beginners. He puts the info I need in a way I can understand.
This is great advice for not only disc golf, but my whole life. Thank you Robbie!!
I played the absolute worst round ever yesterday and really needed this. Thanks for all your hard work man
Had a round exactly like this yesterday. Had 4 spitouts, and it just felt like no matter how I threw the disc, it wouldn't go where i wanted to. This destroyed my confidence in the round and I had the worst performance I've had since last summer. Thank you for the tips for when this happens next time!
thank you robbie! this was the most relatable video on your channel for me. i’ll start off decent or even good at times and a bogey or a quacked putt will drain my mentality and it’s downhill from there. i realize it and try to shake it off or hype myself back up, maybe i’ll start dancing instead (:
Thanks Robbie - definitely heard some of the negative comments I say to myself all the time in this video. Going to work on the positive ones you mentioned instead :) really appreciate all of your content!
Your videos have helped me understand so many problems and find a solution, thanks my Dude.
Going to play a brand new track today. Can't wait.
Thanks, I just went through something similar last weekend in a tournament. Had the lead and was having a great round through 7. Then after an awesome drive on the next hole I proceeded to 3 putt. Then the wheels just fell off and I couldn’t get out of my head until the last 4 holes when I had no chance of ever coming back.
You are such a great teacher, plus I really like your style !!!
One of the best things I have done for my mental game in disc golf is read “Golf is Not a Game of Perfect” by Bob Rotella. I won my first tournament a week after reading it. I have read it multiple times since. It was written for ball golf but 100% translates to disc golf. I highly recommend!
LOVE.THE.DANCE. I have been working on positive affirmations this year not only in disc golf but in life in general. It definitely helps!
Love the quacks.
This can be applied to so much more then Disc Golf. Great Advice Robbie, Now to actually start thinking that way!
I'm so new to the game that bad shots are "normal" and I only remember the good ones. When I get home, I brag about the good ones to the sponsor, my wife. One round I was with a friend and said out loud, "Why do I even try?" What I meant was, why did I try so hard, if I just throw it usually works out. It took a moment to explain to my friend what was going through my head. I had to let him know I wasn't about to quit.
Thanks brother. I just had the worst tourney of my life. And was playing awesome before this tourney. Thanks for the uplifting video
I think that playing poker is good preparation for these situations. There is a chance that your Aces get crushed (spited out) by bad luck, but sometimes it's just because you played them badly (that left corner). However any outcome doesn't mean you are bad player. It means that you lost one hand:-)
We just need to focus on longterm outcome
Love your speech about bifocals
Started playing AM3 doubles it's great. I'm such a noodle arm I always was scared of entering tournaments. The doubles set up has been a huge confidence builder but more so I discovered I don't have a long drive but do have deadly up shots and technical approaches. My partner gets us down the field most of the time but I end up putting us at the basket.
Solid advice! Thanks for another great viewing!!
Liking and commenting for the algorithm.
Great Advice.
Great video! I am not an amazing player, but I appreciate your faith in us all.
Fella all your videos are helpful (and sometimes FUNNY). Like this one.
I struggle with this a lot as a new player. Great video
I've definitely done this more than I'd like to admit.
HA Dude! You were the one by the basket when I was practicing and had a putt land on the top of the basket and fall in lololol
Subbed!
I can shoot a -10 on any given day at my local course and then at a tournament I shoot even par. Always get nervous and timid and it causes me to miss putts and shank throws.
It seems like you do a LOT of thinking during a round. Fortunately, I'm not terribly bright so thoughts (good or bad) rarely creep into my head during a round. On the other hand, the last song I hear before I start is crucial because it will play over and over in my head the entire round.
Great advice for players of all ages and skill level. The mental part of the game is equally as challenging as the physical and requires that we work at it too...Thanks for giving us some tools to help us become well-rounded chuckers. Count me in for the Practice to Tourney Day series.
Can we get a video on the board games in the background? Risk and catan? Saweeeeeeet
I even worry when I'm sucking if it's causing others to start making mistakes.
I start Rooting for my card mates, in hopes a rising tide lifts all putters.
Want for others what you want for yourself. Helps me to get out of those selfish thoughts and nagging putt ruts.
For sure how to translate practice rounds into tournament positives
It was great getting to play a round with you Robbie C
Tony!! It was awesome getting to see you just demolish that second round!!
And you make an appearance!!
Good stuff Robbie! Very helpful. Just out of curiosity, are you intermediate, advanced or other?
I play in Advanced MA1!
@@RobbieCDiscgolf nice! That’s my goal over the next couple years. I’m about to move up to intermediate. I appreciate you’re channel and your humor!
Really enjoying your videos!
Great stuff!
YEET! Now go pick them up and put them in the proper recycle bin ♻ 😎 😂
Thank you for sharing. I was loving the dancing and I have to ask, what were you listening to?
Hahaha this is probably the question I receive most duriing rounds. I have a playlist that me and one of my brothers share that is over 36 hours long. It's filled with basically any song we find interesting! So always hard to tell what exactly it is at any moment.
@@RobbieCDiscgolf love it! Keep dancing, man! Check out G2G by the rx bandits. That will get you moving.
"Tim, you're the greatest disc golfer of all time."
2 Months Later
"OH MY GOD, I'M THE WORLD CHAMPION!!!"
Gotta love those dance moves, though!
What course was this tournament at?
Heads-up: your Patreon is giving the 404.
You are a rockstar! Thanks for all of the great content!
Dude... the whole round during sanctioned play I am focused on keeping out of my own mind... I am gonna have to try the dance routine.
Do you have music in your ear during the round?
I do! I keep one headphone in on a super low volume. I still want to be an active and engaged cardmate, but also have the ability to get in the dancing zone!
Did you dance on that 1st missed putt?
For some reason when you were down on yourself Stuart Smalley quote came to mind:"I'm a fraud.
I don't know what I'm doing. They're gonna cancel the show. I'm gonna die homeless and penniless and twenty pounds overweight and no one will ever love me."
Man, you're hard on yourself! I'm jealous you can go from "flossing" to discing in a matter of seconds.
Feels like when your too loose and trying to be to clear in the head you have 0 focus. That putt did cost you the tournament
But what if you really are sort of bad? Lol
I know in my case, I am a tale of two players. I play much better alone and seemingly become a head case when in league play. Frustrating to say the least and sometimes just play bad even alone. Am an atrocious putter
What mistakes!?🤣🤣🤣
