I really like that logo. I was introduced to DG 13 years ago on my 30th birthday. My wife needed a way to get me away from the house to throw me a surprise, so she recruited a friend to take me. It was love at first throw, but I didn't really start working on my game and playing consistently until the past couple years. I still can't seem to figure out distance - I've maybe touched 300 a couple times. If I could throw 300 consistently and relatively accurately I'd be happy with that.
Thanks for the comment James, nose down is the key or getting the nose to be neutral will really help. I struggled with this for a long time. I did get a tech disc which does show you your nose angle but it doesn't teach you how to throw nose down. Check out my video "this changed everything and then check out how to throw nose down". I hope this helps and slow down and trust the process, you might think if I slow down. It won't go far but if you get your technique down, it will. Keep up the great work.
I started playing with my son back in early 2000 just for fun. Then, we started playing again in 2021. This time we played more seriously. I like the content of your videos, you give a lot of good advice that applies to guys that have slower arm speed like me. Thanks
Hey! Love the instructional vids. You do a nice clean, slow and articulate delivery, easy to follow. I started playing disc golf this year in april, my good friend @tom_hood26 got me started. Currently my biggest struggle is throwing anhyzers.
Thanks for the comment. Throwing anhyzers can be tough, I realized that you can cheat nose down for this throw. You have to get the nose down for anhyzers to fly correctly without stalling out in the air. Work on your nose and record yourself, lean back at the waist and keep working on it. Try and keep you elbow up when doing this, it should help.
Thank you for your video. I started playing disc golf about six years ago because a friend of mine would not stop inviting me. Of course I fell in love with it and have never looked back. I am 52 years old and I think that the thing I struggle with most is, seeing these young guys in the videos talking about throwing 500+ feet with this little tweak in their form. The farthest I can throw is 360 feet and that’s with everything going perfect. I struggle with being jealous and trying too hard, which leads to injuries. I appreciate you, reminding me, Danny said, slow is smooth and smooth is far. Thank you very much for your contact. God bless you, Todd.
Todd, 360 is good distance but I feel you. I have a lot of guys I play with throwing to far and it is difficult for them to slow down on the easier shots. I worked on being more consistent and that has helped me out tremendously. But I still strive for extra distance and I have been getting their but I do have to rely on my flippy stuff. Keep at it. Thanks for the comment.
This is my third season and my son got me into the game. Really interested in trying that little space on the palm of the power grip. I am going to give that a try.
I started playing disc golf for my son's 8th birthday party. It was a first for both of us and we were instantly hooked. Since then, he has taken disc golf up as his homeschool sport of choice. I work from home and we are able to head out almost daily to play. We have been participating in local events and now have his teen cousins playing as well. My biggest struggle is consistency. When I get out there with others, I tend to mentally abandon my game and mimic their approach. I need to learn to stay focused and play the way I know I can be successful.
Marc, I meant to reply back to your comment. You are correct, play your game and not someone's else. My friends throw these booming hyzer shots and that is not me. I can still do those kind of shots and have been seeing some improvement but I know my high to low risk when it comes to course management. This is something you have to figure out and when you are not good a specific shots, work on those when you can or during a casual round. It helps. Thanks for commenting.
I don’t do any social media so can only post here. I am 3 months into playing disc golf and am addicted so everything about my game needs help lol. So thankful I found your channel as the way you explain things 100% make sense to me. Thanks for the content!
Started playing Spring of this year at 52 years old. My brother has played for years and got me interested in it. I have a course close to me and I wanted another reason to get outside. My biggest struggle is placement off the tee.
I've been playing on and off for 7 years; however, for the past 6 months, I've been hitting it hard and enjoying the game with my wife and daughter, not sure who got me into the game but enjoy watching your videos and Robby C for the amazing tips, my struggles would be consistency off the box and forehand.
Consistency can be tough, but I figure once you get your technique down with your form. You will start to be more confident and realize you can start shaping the shots you like and what you are good at. I like hyzer flips to flat, I don't have a great forehand but I do have a good anhyzer that has gotten me way more distance than any other shot. Thanks for the comment and keep working on your game.
Hey Tony. Digging the channel. Been playing regularly for about five years and a few years occasionally before that. My brother-in-law introduced me to the game, and I have a good friend who gave me a bunch of discs to get started with. I struggle with pain after a round and am probably using too much arm and shoulder on my throws. Would like to get same/more distance without the pain.
@soundseas, yes this is important. You don't want to be feeling pain after the next day. Feeling sore is different and eventually that will go away because you are working muscles that are not normally being used. But pain is a different story. I developed tennis elbow pain last year and that is when I realized I was pulling and muscle-ling down. when I threw. Check out my video on this changed everything. I think it will help and trust the process.
Started playing back in the early 90’s with some buddies I worked with (John and Hector) recently got back into it a few years ago with an invite from a buddy named Steve. My biggest struggle is adjusting my form for more distance.
Jeff, I feel you. Nobody wants to adjust their form and go through the heartache of loosing distance, but if you trust the process and practice with good intent, it will payoff. I hope you like the video content. Keep it up.
@@let_it_fly_dg the grip part really is helping my nose angle, thanks for the tip. I’ve used the pour the coffee for a while, but this is the first time I’ve actually heard about hand placement!
This can be tough. It does come down to your arm speed and the stability of the disc but for now with my arm speed, I like to hyzer flip with havoc's, destiny, bolts, and sapphire's. Nose down is really important for this as well. Thanks for the comment.
@@let_it_fly_dg it’s a delicate balance of speed, spin, and angles. Get it to stand up and maybe turn a little, but not burn over. And my speed, spin, and angles aren’t consistent enough. Haha. Thinking I should not worry about too distance as much and maybe hit one angle lines for more control.
No worries Edgar. Just make sure you are subscribed, like the video and post you comment below based on the instructions in the video. Thanks for the comment.
Love the details about your grip
Only been playing a few years. Really like the new logo looks great.
Man i dig the new logo
Thanks Robert. We need to get out in to the field.

My buddy started me playing early 2021 and been in love with it since. I’d say I struggle with high speed driver(on hyser-flip) accuracy.
