So here is the long-awaited putting video, though this time I will not talk about the technical aspects of putting but the mental side. Putting is, after all, 90% percent head and 10% body. I have struggled gigantically with mental game, ultimately ending my career in tournament disc golf. This is why I know a thing or two about what NOT to do so that you keep your head cool and stay in the game.
Oh, and sorry about the video quality. I couldn't make it better this time, but try to imagine it's 2010 and Eric McCabe just won the Worlds and it'll feel just fine.

People always want to give tips, tricks, and routines to try… but few people talk about the MENTAL side to this game. This was good stuff as usual, Jaani. Thank you.
Thank YOU! There is a reason, why these topics don't get covered, and it's the lack of attention. Quick fixes get all the views, so naturally people focus on them. I knew this video will be my least watched but I wanted to make it for the few who want to see it.
Excellent to go through a whole process!
The nikko clips had me dying 'remember you have 30 seconds to putt' cuts to nikko at 40+ seconds
You saw what I did there...
So funny 🤣
Awesome! No one talks about the mental aspect of putting, which I believe is 80% of the putt! Good stuff!
This is why I watch these, nobody's talking about face tension, except Jaani
Glad you watched and especially that you noticed the face tension.
Relax your gaze is such a fantastic tip.
Thanks!
The part about relaxing the gaze after finding the target, and then staying locked onto the target no matter where the disc goes, is absolute money. These mental tips are great for every shot too, not just putts.
Thank you for the comment! Happy to help.
I don’t comment much on videos, but I love this. My putting has been garbage this season, and getting back to some mental basics may be just what the doctor ordered. Thanks.
C'mon, you can do it!
Thank you for all your fantastic videos. This video, like your other videos, is very easy to follow. Your approach is simple but understandable and highly visual, which suits my learning style perfectly. I'll definitely share awareness of your channel with my disc golf friends. Please keep up the great work. Your work makes it so much easier for the rest of us
Kiitos kaikista mahtavista videoistasi. Tämä video, kuten muutkin videosi, on erittäin helppo seurata. Lähestymistapasi on yksinkertainen mutta ymmärrettävä ja erittäin visuaalinen, mikä sopii täydellisesti oppimistyyliini. Aion ehdottomasti jakaa tietoisuutta kanavastasi disc golf -ystävieni keskuudessa. Jatka hyvää työtä. Työsi tekee sen niin paljon helpommaksi meidän muiden kannalta.
Kiitos tuhannesti kannustuksesta!
Well said!! And love the edits! Ha!
Thanks!
This is such a great video! Thanks Doctor!
Glad it helped!
Thanks Jaani, another great video once again.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think this is the best channel for discgolf. I've watched all your "Tips and tricks" and i kindafeel, that i have played wrong all these 6 years. :O Defenitely going to field and try all your lessons! Lernt from the bad guys I guess.
Not wrong, differently. But some "wrong" moves might cause troubles you need to correct with other moves and might become a vicious cycle of over correcting.
As always I love your content Jaani. Well explained, now I just have to do it, (big smiley)
You can do it!
Great video! Impressive range of clips you included!
Thanks! I tried my best choosing the best clips.
Great content, I always recommend your channel to both new and experienced players. thanks.
Glad you like them!
The mental game in any sport is always a forgotten looked over outlier. Thank you for taking the time to address it. That’s been my biggest issue on the course, what’s between my ears
Mental strength is what separates the good from the great.
Awesome video as always. We all know about the mental side but its so easy to forget how huge it is. Thank you.
It's everything that matters on the top. Every one is capable of winning, until it's time to win.
That moment when Nate told Nikko to cut it out is one of my favorites. A card member having a shit fit definitely can bring down the rest of the card. I'm sure Nate felt like Nikko's shitty attitude was starting to affect him (because that is about the most serious I have ever heard Nate sound). Just an all time great moment as a big NP fan (and not a huge NL fan.)
I just threw a PR on my lunch break. Three under through nine. Always be coiling. Thanks 🎉
Great job!
Thanks a lot your tips help me a lot with putting
Glad to hear that!
Really well put together.
Thanks!
Love your work man
I appreciate that!
As always a wonderful video, also incredible edits lmaoooo
Thank you so much!!
Great video !!! I’ve been trying to drill “ forgetting “ into my sons head for years !
You can do it! Maybe a routine that he'll have to do after every putt, failed or made. Something that wipes off the previous shot.
Interesting thoughts on the targeting: release the tension. RobbieC is know for smiling when he puts, after he makes his decision and picks his spot. His next action is to smile. Interesting that you both include this. Super difficult to execute this, especially when I have this sinking feeling inside, this anxious thought. But this leads to a question: to release this tension and inner turmoil, how do we still grip the putter with enough pressure?
Oh, like the smile thing!! Positive vibes will follow for sure. The grip... well, you don't need much tension in the arm or fingers. The should rest on your finger tips, no need to squeeze it.
Great content!
Thanks!
Mental is the thing! Super!🙂
This is a tip that will help you learn how to putt. Taking notes
Thanks Coach
Glad it was helpful!
My friend! I am really enjoying your content. I like your approach to the game. I am relatively new to the sport, but am still pretty athletic for a 53 year old. My forehand is great as I am am old baseball player, but my backhand is a work in progress! Was wondering where you are from... Finland. Nice. Greetings from Colorado!
Glad you enjoy it! I am truly from Finland, but I stay most of my time traveling.
Very good video. The mental side of the game is a problem for many (including me).
It's the biggest obstacle. I never could go pass it.
Terveisiä 😘
Takaisin sinne!
nice break from form and technique. ty
Something different once in a while.
I'm always looking for a "trigger" to get me going through my setup routine.
Most of my missed putts are because I rush the shot.
But, if I go through my setup routine, the odds of making the putt goes way up.
But, often, I forget to go through my routine.
Especially if I'm playing with someone and we are chatting away...
Thank you
You're welcome
With disc golf being largely mental, I feel these steps could be applied to all aspects of the Sport. My best rounds have been ones where my mental game was on point.
Absolutely.
Damn good!
Thank ya!
I’ve watched so many people suffer from the mental game that I could predict my own wins.
Wow after this putting going to be easy! 😃
Haha, right on!
I have heard about similar aspects in Archery on Joe Rogan Podcast #1943, actually they talk a lot about the forgetting but a bit diffrent. And i already did the imagination stuff on putting. Sometimes i can't imagine the putt goin in then i decide to layup. Thanks for your Content, greetings from Austria
Yes
These resonate with my putting swings
Love the Stafford Woods/MJ clips! #SaveStaffordWoods
Thanks! MJ is incredible on the green.
I hope you are doing well, Dr.
I seem to have forgotten which video you mentioned your top 3 suggested vids/drills. I recall you suggesting...The Postman drill, the Spaghetti arm drill, and I forgot the third. Which one was it?
Always Be Coiling, but really everything you is connected to the other. Bracing videos are essential for the leg part, though.
What tournament round is the Nikko courtesy warning from 😆 14:07
Can't recall that.
What’s up with the Ken Climo “monkey putt”?
I’ve never seen that clip 😃
Yes, I think he was channeling his inner Brad Hammock or something. Looked familiar.
Classic clip, found here: ua-cam.com/video/vUr6PvIpUJ0/v-deo.htmlsi=HMdYvoxmMn1ec3da
I have apbantasia so I can't do the visualizing part. But instead I tell myself a little story about what I want to happen and I try to be specific.
Brilliant idea!
I have BIG troubles with long puts, around 30ft 40f 50ft / 9m 12m 15m and beyond those puts. I always try to do too much, and then my putter goes high without power and always fades to the left way before the basket. I want to put like pros, not too high with long and steady glide straight. How do I do that? Im trying to put like calvin, short arm and fast stop to gain spin
I will try to explain it in the near future.
Need to have Spin Doctor's aphorism discs with Dahmer glasses looking from behind! Seriously, I'll type these rules to my putter.
Maybe some disc company finds me someday and wants to make a special stamp. Not seeing that happen, but who knows!
@@dgspindoctor I can see a line of MENTAL putters, HIT drivers and SIT ON IT mids with a philosophical twist 😉
I would love that!
This sport would be so amazing if I was at least decent at putting
Oh, you tell me...
this feels targeted after this weekend...
Yea, you said it. After every tournament round.
@@dgspindoctor to the practice basket we go
Ehkä se tärkein osa-alue.
Tekisitpä vielä suomeksi näitä
Näin se on. Suomeksi on muuten tämä sama melkolailla samalla sisällöllä jo julkaistukin.
@@dgspindoctortotta! kävin katsomassa uudestaan. täydellinen video ja tarpeeseen tuli. kiitoksia siitä.
Tää on käytännössä suora käännös siis :)
@@dgspindoctor niin ymmärsinkin. ei tuo enkku lähe itellä vaan kovin hyvin :D
Jaania suomeksi kaipaillaan täälläkin (oppimisvaikeudet taustalla ja englanti ollut aina työn ja tuskan takana), mutta ymmärrän erittäin hyvin ratkaisun. 👌
Se tuntuu mukavalta, kun facesivuille postailet suomeksi ja välillä sinne tullutkin videomaistiaisia suomeksi. Ehkäpä se voisi olla kanava, jonne aina inspiraation tullessa tuuttaa asiaa suomeksi? 😊
Kaikkea hyvää ja kiitos videoista! ✌️

With lust and dedication?
So if suck at putting, does it mean mental issues, among other things? Wife asking.
There are SO many styles and every one of them can be equally good. It's the one that you feel most comfortable you should choose, and the one that let's you move without even thinking about it. There are some things to practice always and to know how to move, but eventually it's more about the confidence, resilience, perseverance to make the putts that count.
@@dgspindoctor True that! I have experimented with many different styles, can not say I feel more that more confident with a push vs spin put. Doing put training in back yard is I feel is almost totally different than on the course. On the course, the stance is always different, as is surroundings, bushes and trees.
This was though good content!
If you have your putting form mechanics down for whatever distances you can be accurate, making say, 75-80% of your putts while practicing, and you do substantially worse (say 15% or more) while playing a round where the putts are fairly similar to the conditions you have been practicing, I would say mental error is occuring.
Did u know the most lightheaded guys are best at putting , i think Weed is answer here for us who is stressed about it ! :)
This is the absolute truth for sure.
