Just starting my disc golf journey. Played about 60 rounds in the first 3 months of playing. Going to start my off season grind for the first time and using the playlist as a guide!! Thanks man!! You’ve really gotten me into all this and I can’t thank you enough!!!
I think it just clicked. I’ve been arming it this whole time. I need to rotate lower body first! Thank you for sharing Josh’s critique. Might’ve just saved me shoulder surgery 10 years from now.
Setting up the hips like that was something I had not considered. I couldnt figure out why some days my throws felt so much more fluid and easier. It definitely has to do with activation of the hips and just general rotation of my body rather than just strong arming the disc. This was very informative for me, thank you.
While I'm no pro at dg, I am FH dominant and hold my own thanks to it. I was however a AAA baseball catcher that needed to relearn how to throw, from using forearm muscles to, even in a rush, depending on "long arming" the ball instead of short arming. Basically using your body more. He's right, you don't want tendinitis from using your elbow too much. Haven't seen anyone else really do it, but I (RHFH) kind of cross/X step my right foot way left of my my pointer/left foot while going forward to absolutely make my body rotate rearwards and coil/release for not only extra power but making sure you aren't using your arm too much.
Your vids have been inspiring me to get better so thank you for that. I was struggling to break 300ft just a couple weeks ago, but something clicked timing wise that allows me to keeps the nose down and now I'm pushing 375. ( not very accurately tho lol) Keep up the great content my guy! I will def be following your journey.
“Shadow swinging” really helped my backhand. Took the time to do it often and I pretty quickly saw an improvement and consistency with my timing. I would film it or do it in front of the mirror
A great man told me to compare my side arm shots to a pro short stop baseball player. This video seems like that same idea. Keep up the good work bud!!!
so much info without being too much... not to push back tech stuff on forehand but got excited that this cat wants to do next level, "qualify for tour card" and doing the work up front... the thing that caught me is the wisdom to be doing non-disc workout... this game, like most competitive sports, has a major attrition attribute - so many rounds in whatever weather, NOT sleeping in normal bed/environment in between rounds, et al... my, I am social level player so my opinion more from three decades of coaching D1 sport and then seeing it in my elder self, best rounds always second round - r1 gets me in disc golf mode, next day hitting lines/putts, next day shows fatigue physically and mentally
I think looking at tutorials on baseball swing lower body mechanics and engaging the hips could really help for both forehand and backhand power from a lower body rotational mechanic perspective. There is a ton of material out there focusing on these mechanics that directly correlate to lower body disc golf mechanics that are taught at a high level that are more easily incorporated than anything i have found for discgolf.
Best nets to buy are the cat-nets that people put on their balconies to keep pets from falling. Cheap AF, durable as all hell and usually large enough to string up pretty much anywhere. Mine is 3x4 meters and cost about $30.
I currently use the same forehand grip that you used to use, and I have a difficult time maintaining the angle I want to throw on. Perhaps I should make a change as well.
Firstly, great video. Secondly, I recently started watching your videos and I think they're pretty good. Lastly, what kind of equipment are you filming with? (Camera, mic, editing software, etc.)
Nice job Anthony, very helpful. I have a lot of off-axis torque. Definitely have a lot more power than spin. When I try to cock my wrist more, I lose a lot of grip. Feels like this disc is slipping right out of my hand. Did you have this issue at all?
Form question! I noticed a seemingly big difference from the advice given here to the afvice of Ryan Sheldon. Whereas Overthrow recommends a 90 degree angle of the back foot for mobility, Ryan preaches forward facing feet and hip shoulder separation. So the movement is more a core coil/uncoil than hip-based. Any thoughts ? :)
Both Ryan and I are teaching hip shoulder separation. I also don’t think he is talking about a forward facing back foot during the load. In other words I think we are focusing on different parts of the throw and people think we are talking about the same moment
@@BodanzaDiscGolf I putt almost every night 50-100 times with 10 different putters. Luna judge roach banger warden nomad aviar glow Reko k3 Reko rainmaker. Reko is by far the best for me. Nomad is best on Annie
Except sidearm baseball pitcher follow through very differently because the spin is different. But for lower body and off arm I think this definitely is a good idea
This turned out great.
so good I might even try to hire a coach now...

Great instructional video. What was amazing was that after 193 close calls you never knocked the coffee over!
fastest talking review ever but always so good, appreciate the review, and your comparisons.

Also I was waiting for your coffee to just get decked by your elbow

Awsome, thank you. I'm new (ish) at discgolf, this will help!
I see that Trash Panda sticker on your laptop! Lookin good
This coach is sick! Gonna hit the field right now :D cheers
Great info. Love both of the channels. Looking forward to your next form progression vid!
Just found your channel, amazing content! New follower here. Good luck with your journey.
Keep up the awesome work! Definitely following this!
Great video! Would be great if you publish your backhand breakdown by Overthrow.
Yeah - backhand vid would be sweet!
Sounds like when he was speaking of the hips and hip rotation, reminds me a lot of the baseball swing
I currently use the same forehand grip that you used to use, and I have a difficult time maintaining the angle I want to throw on. Perhaps I should make a change as well.
Great video for everyone!
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
I'm glad he's now teaching that your foot can face more forward than 90 because if you watch the Andrew marwede video he is in a different opinion
I still haven't started! Yes, I haven't done my putts today 😅 I'm sure you will, or make up for lost time 🔥
Hey man, when I throw my forehand sometimes when I release it. The disc flairs up instead of going straight. What should I do?
Visionary disc golf has a great net for disc golf!
Firstly, great video. Secondly, I recently started watching your videos and I think they're pretty good. Lastly, what kind of equipment are you filming with? (Camera, mic, editing software, etc.)
I'm impressed that you never knocked your coffee over.
Great tips!!
This is good bros.
If you decide on a net, I'd love to know which one you got, because I'm looking to get one too
definitely contact visionary disc golf, tell him Purdy sent ya ;)
PLEASE tell me the North East is in your Tour plans, liiiiiike Rochester 👀

anyonEO we know? man i love oakley sunglasses though. did u know my brother's name is eric?
What camera do you use??

You played with Eric Oakley at UWF!?!?!
Pink tutu for your first tournament
The concept is exactly the same as pitching. The only thing I had to learn was not to throw the disc but let the wrist snap the disc.
Random disc golfer that totally isn't Eric: "IS THAT GOOD?"
0:53 Have you done your putts yet? It's 12:01 AM haha, it's the next day!
I use light weight over stable for forehands to save on my elbow. 162-167 gram. Firebird destroyer or standstill roadrunner pyro
Nice video! Also, tenets, not tenants :)
I'm curious what you do for a living?
It's tomorrow. Did you do your 200?
/Have you done your putts yet?
The 'Eric Oakley' 🤔
Can’t focus on anything but where that coffee is #spillanxiety
Awesome! My forehand is 💩
Try to say Irish Wrist Watch 3 times fast
Who wouldn't recognize Eric's voice haha
Forward energy, not rotational energy. That’s me! 🤦♂️
Did you do your putts yesterday?
Did you do your putts today?
Idk if I’ll be able to get much more distance on my forehand I’ve only been playing for 2 years now and I have a 420-450ft forehand
Have you done your putts yet sir??
Bro have you done your putts today
if you need help with disocord im a content creator and also am a mod for like 4 larger community discords
But have you done your puts yet👀
Have this instructor ever been a professional disc golfer?
Have you done your putts yet?
0:55 - when did I say to ask???
Also, yes I did lol check the insta! haha
@@BodanzaDiscGolf lol next video
@@BodanzaDiscGolf I putt almost every night 50-100 times with 10 different putters. Luna judge roach banger warden nomad aviar glow Reko k3 Reko rainmaker. Reko is by far the best for me. Nomad is best on Annie
Have you done your putts today?
Have you've done your putts today? :)
Did you get in your putts today? 😁
Don't you do nothing crazy like shave your head. Those of us who are follicularly challenged would be dismayed.
I think what every disc golfer should do is start to look at MLB sidearm pitchers to learn how to throw forehands.
Except sidearm baseball pitcher follow through very differently because the spin is different. But for lower body and off arm I think this definitely is a good idea
Your wireless mic is absolutely horrible.
