  • The Spike Hyzer is an essential shot in disc golf primarily for going up and over obstacles. Mostly used for approaches but can be used for drives if you have the power.
    Most players cannot get the correct angle on the throw because they do not do this one simple thing. This is how to correctly throw the Spike Hyzer.

      Fair warning, you may find yourself getting a lot of them. I have 7 currently, and now I find myself needing to get a Scott Stokely series Harp too. The Harp is my favorite disc of all time! I've never had another disc immediately shave strokes off of my score like the Harp has.

    This is also a secret way to test yourself to see if you are not getting off your back leg soon enough.
    I struggle with this, where it traps some power by not letting all the weight shift onto the front foot.
    I was sure it was a timing issue, but I couldn't pin down the cause. I think practicing this move will help me iron out my timing issue.

    I now know that I've never thrown a proper spike hyzer....
    But, noodle-arm that I am, I've always just picked an overstable driver and put it up high and gotten nearly the same result as the up and down.
    I've never needed to throw it straight up and down like that, as my underpowered throws make high speed discs do that anyway...haha.

    @1andonlyMiro 2 года назад

    I'm going to let you guys on a little secret. If there is a hole where you don't want to go early left, nor do you want to go late right on a straight tunnel, you can actually throw a grenade. Grab the flippiest disc you can find, it needs to be so understable it almost turns when you PUTT with it. My go to was a BEATEN dx Sidewinder until I lost it. The throw is upside down, as hard as you can, LOW. It'll flip over and start gliding straight as an arrow. You COULD throw a hyzerflip BUT this is really fun. 😂

  • @MrSparge
    @MrSparge 2 года назад

    Stupid question... In the case of the shot you have here - over the gazebo. Why not just a big hyzer? I'm not sure I understand the spike-hyzer advantage over hyzer. Maybe I'm getting it as I type and it has to do with the landing? A thumber/tomahawk would hit the ground and stop. A big hyzer would likely skip hard-left (I think that's my answer). So, the spike-hyzer basically replaces a tomahawk maybe? Just wondering :)

    • @seanmorris
      @seanmorris 2 года назад +1

      Thumbers and tomahawks pan right/left form their apogee though? Grenades straight down or right if US, Spike hyzer slightly left. As to why a spike over a big hyzer maybe the height required to clear an object or if the right side of the approach is blocked (and as you say avoiding the skip)

    • @ScottStokelyDG
      @ScottStokelyDG  2 года назад +3

      I'm only demonstrating the Spike Hyzer not saying that would be the correct shot for this circumstance. The Spike Hyzer is simply a hyzer where there is no room for the swing to go toward the right so you need the angle to be more up and down.

  • @juanpcjr1
    @juanpcjr1 Месяц назад

    What stability is the disk to use so to achieve a spike hyzer?

    • @ScottStokelyDG
      @ScottStokelyDG  Месяц назад

      The more overstable, the better. The over stability compensates for the lack of angle steepness.

    Holyyyy sh*t did this make a difference in throwing a hyzer. Now I just need to adjust between a really steep hyzer and an absolute spike hyzer. I got so much accuract to my hyzers from this AND added SO MUCH POWER onto them with this. Might have something to do with my physique/flexibility, but I will experiment doing this with just hyzers as well. Also this can be a result of throwing in the winter, footwork is heavily affected by snow/ice/pretty heavy shoes.

    I am a fitness coach for disc golfers. To parlay off of Mr. Stokley’s advice. Folks, do some research on how to perform the exercise called (single leg Romanian dead lift). Start with body weight until you are able to perform the exercise with complete core stability then progress to dumbbells. Every single DG’er I work with executes this exercise every single session. Your game will improve. Your welcome

    On a vertical angle it will still go left Because of the same mechanism that causes a disk to stay in the air despite gravity, I the lift that will be normally generated Except it's not fighting gravity anymore in the left to right direction

      As he said, it's the same thing as a grenade. So yes, you will get a little sideways drift if you throw something quite understable. A very useful albeit infrequently called for utility shot.
      But that's why this and the grenade are normally done with a significantly overstable disc. Almost zero drift, extremely predictable parabola.

    But it's true that the disk shouldn't skip really because it's going to hit on at least that sharp of an angle that you threw And if it is a true spike heiser Then the disk really doesn't have much momentum left when it lands
