    I really appreciate that you acknowledge your mistakes while instructing. I see tons of teachers on youtube say how to do something, demonstrate, clearly mess it up, and then just not acknowledge it or do a camera cut. As a viewer, I know everyone makes mistakes and it is so helpful to see what can go wrong when fixing something else AND how to address it. As someone who loves to turn and watch the disc (I do the same thing in golf) it is refreshing to see it talked about because I don't see it mentioned as much in the disc golf swing as I do in golf swing instruction. That has caused me for a long time to think it must not be a big issue. I feel better knowing it is, because I can fix it.

    Just a month ago, I almost threw my bag in the trash on my way out of the course because I was so frustrated that I couldn’t throw as far or accurately as I wanted to. In the last month, mostly because of your videos, I’ve added nearly 50’ to my distance and I’m playing 5ish strokes better on every course. I’m playing -2 on my local easy 9-hole course now. All thanks to you guys. You really make a difference.

      Yikes. You're not on the pro tour, chill out and relax and enjoy the game. You need repetition, not to be treating every round you play like it's life and death. It's not for you if you only enjoy it when you do well.

      Josh is the best coach on YT. Idk what got you throwing your bag away last month, but I'm glad you're still here and I hope your bag is too homie. Don't get frustrated, fun is the most important part. Remember, the field is for work, the course is for fun. Don't take anything too seriously unless you're playing for a paycheck.

    Committing is my #1 issue. So many early releases that go low right (lefty backhand). Then I over commit and turn too quickly resulting in a “late” release and yank the shot wide on a spike hyzer line.

    Often times when pulling right, you’re trying to sight your gap or something with your head and your head leads the pull. Keep the eye on the ball and head down and pulling right becomes pretty hard to do other than a grip issue.

    I think it’s important to state that these tips are “form fixes” that should really be applied during practice instead of a tournament setting. The mental game I feel is really what should be focused on in tournament play because no form fix is gonna save you if you’re already out of it in your mind (taken from personal experience). Regardless, great tips that I’ll work into my shadow/field work

  • @callaway5148
    @callaway5148 4 месяца назад

    I find myself making another mistake that causes right shanks (RHBH). If I am scared of turning over to the right because that is the error to avoid, I will often walk up angled left because I'm subconsciously wanting to avoid going right. However, to throw the disc straight the direction I want, my body now has to compensate and throw it back across itself. Well, that almost always results in an overcompensation and yanking it right. I fix it by committing to a straight walk up and trusting myself to hit the line. Of course, if I sighted my shot from my lie and walked back straight as Josh demonstrates, that would fix it. I need to do that. I tend to position myself behind my lie (or at the back of the tee area) and then sight my line and choose my walk-up direction. I will change that ASAP!

    @DannyRWade 4 месяца назад

    Cool video! I think I understand the general point of the video but I have a question : If it’s a ratio between hand involvement and body involvement like you said near 9:30, then why for both misses do you have the same fix? You say that if you release late there’s too much body involvement (=need less body) and if you’re releasing early your hand wasn’t involved enough (=more hand). If it’s a ratio of hand and body involvement then aren’t both fixes changing the ratio equally? Surely this doesn’t mean you should increase hand involvement and decrease body involvement for every miss?

  • @affonen
    @affonen Месяц назад

    As I understand it, you’re saying that the chest going forward may cause late release. Yet, if you look at Eagle’s drive (e.g. the new super slow motion video on the Anthem Films Disc Golf channel) you can clearly see that his chest is virtually facing the the trajectory of the disc at the hit point. Yet, he doesn’t shank because the disc leaves his hand at about 11 o’clock or so.

    • @OverthrowDiscGolf
      @OverthrowDiscGolf  Месяц назад +1

      Correct. Eagle is more open than most at about 25° open. If his chest was more forward than it usually is, let’s say 45° open, he would probably miss right. It isn’t about everyone be more or less open than each other but compared to their own form.

  • @NzSw4t
    @NzSw4t 3 месяца назад

    I also find I miss left due to a weak grip or early body turn resulting in the disc hitting my back shoulder (not finding the power pocket). Usually the latter is because I’m rounding. Reaching outwards on a 45 fixed this (for me)… imo

    This is something I've been noticing and trying to tackle myself. I've come to the conclusion it's my grip. If it's too loose, the disc "falls" out of my hand going left. If it's too tight, the disc literally sticks to my index finger and goes right. Are you saying grip doesn't even matter?

  • @Corrigan65_
    @Corrigan65_ 4 месяца назад

    I'm nobody. But everybody knows this feeling, when you know you did it right. Pre OT I was using Nate Sexton's tip for beginners, Line up your lead hip or elbow with your target. Danny boy Lindahl taught me straight back reach back and cured my rounding issues. ;Relax boss, this is pre OT discovery, don't hit me...Again (Josh hits us) So, the routine demonstrated here to line up the shot would've been game changing for me if I saw it years back. Just like putting, there's a routine when you're on the tee pad. Like a tree, the roots of my routine are too deep. So, next stage was feeling the disc, Not disc selection for the shot. Every disc felt like it cab aim me as crazy at that sounds. transmitting,🔭 into my nervus system was connected to it. Sometimes the disc aims me if that makes sense. but that requires me to take my hand out of the 90 degree box because I need it in my periphery on the walkup. It's still useful at times but when you're shooting down a hallway. To me, NOW it's become about listening to your feet. To the original point, I had an epiphany about a month ago. Tunnel shot downhill out of the woods where the branches create a low ceiling arch; sloping downwards. No hip angle because it's downhill and I don't know how to negative hip angle. So gave me one less element to account for. So the hip thing gone, my mind just walked that line. A fury. Understable fairway driver. That moment where you know it. I knew I laced it. Again, I'm nobody but I wish I saw this video years ago. I tried this walk back from the front of the tee pad, Unfortunately my system can't accept this addition to my routine, But for the aspiring, I would definitely do this if you're starting out.
    And if you read this far, I believe when you're throwing down a hallway this video is the 1 to watch.

      It's my most memorable moment of this year. I didn't ace, but it was a moment of grace. It's directly related to this video's concept of getting the walk up line on lock The way I do a tunnel shot is kind of gypsyesque. I look at the tunnel and the slope. try to feel where I should stand. then adjust hip for swing plane if it's uphill. It must be annoying at times for my friends to watch me. Or amusing

      @@OverthrowDiscGolf I thought about it more today during a casual round. When it's bombs away open field. Sounds paradoxical, in a sense but I'm thinking a wide open shot, your approach line is actually much more critical. Where you walk to the front of the tee pad. Where do I aim with this disc. Don't always see it in the deep blue sky but you know where you want to see that disc fly. Ok look down a little bit. Ok ill line up with that thing. walk the line backward.
      In this hypothetical scenario, I'm not focusing on footwork, don't have to hit a line. I just walk back from my point of reference on the horizon. Like a bow and arrow? Because if it's wide open, I'm using hip tilt, just have to walk back and forward from my reference point, and put my pentium 2 processor on the angle. If that makes sense.
