The format of this video is great, less about competition and more about building each other’s game! We’ve all seen the utterly common razz rounds, which are good, but this is a refreshing take on a practice round. Thanks Paige, Kona, and the GK crew 😊 Ps. Can this be a regular thing?
Two of my faves!! I started off watching more guys in the sport, but you two have completed changed the game for me! Thank you for creating awesome content and gives us so many tips 🤩
I love how you both shared your thought process for each shot. Teaching the mental aspect and thought process are probably equally as important to the teaching of form. This has become my new blueprint for practice. Thanks for the great content.
5 min into this video…I love it as a disc golfer! Can’t wait to watch it all through and look forward to new content! This is the kind of discussion during practice rounds that I like and want to have!
Subconsciously I’ve taken something from both of your games too. I didn’t even notice it happen but I changed from a stagger jump putt to stepping my back foot up to the disc like Paige. I have way better control and the same distance. I also recently have been working on my forehand upshot game and I find myself picturing Kona’s form both for timing and smoothness. Thanks to you both!
This is SO good content. I think Page's content really has a good infortainment balance. It's clearly about sharing information and showing stuff, but it's also well produced and has that hangout-vibe. Also all respect to having one's own faults in the content, makes it much more relateable.
Great video this is the kind of video that we all need. It helps us talk to shots thank you and good luck with your endeavors and yes stay in the moment
Most of my bag has discs with PP or Kona on em! Top two favorites in the sport. "Do you have a putting practice routine?" "Ummm..." That right there tells you what she needs to work on! If she had your putting she would constantly be at the top with you.
Paige wasn’t at Delaware, but Kona(and Colton)was the first person out on the course Monday morning trying different lines, ranging objects and taking notes. I was very impressed with how dedicated Kona and most of the touring pros are to their craft.
Perfect amount of information on what you guys think for shots and advice; without to much over explaining. Great practice round and congrats Kona on DD sponsorship!
This is a fantastic idea for a video and I'm enjoying it a bunch. Love to see the supportive atmosphere-I feel like it's stuff like this that will get more women out.
That is one of the amazing things to love about both Kona and Paige, helping their fellow competitors if they notice something and also being able to accept that advice from a competitor.
I love waking up & watching DG. This was a great way to start my day. Loved this. You're both so fun to watch & learn from. Oh & I saw that Passion @ the Match Play but forgot to ask to see it. Wow is that a pretty disc!
Thanks Paige and Kona. I'll try taking a lot of this on board and hopefully using it to improve my game. I hope you'll be doing more of these in the future.
I LOVE the format of this video, Paige and Kona! This is such great content and really great tips in here. Love seeing the shot process, mindset, tips, and encouragement here. More of this content, please! This is GOLD!
You better watch your discs, Paige! Kona tried stealing my disc when she was signing it at the Preserve! LOL would have tackled her to get it back! Love the video! Fun and casual!
In the off season you might want to look into increasing your hamstring and quad strength. This can help with maintaining a smooth controlled form throughout your throw on shots in which accuracy more important than raw distance. Having more strength in your thighs allows you to bend your knees more which gives greater stability.
Actually taking a little winter break from Minnesota to play this course in 2 weeks. Will be 1st time to the east coast. I'm glad you put this video together. I'll take all the advice I can get.
Thanks for the great video hope to see more of these! That yellow crystal fierce has been my fav disc since it came out and the Passion is right there with it. Awesome discs Paige! I actually switched putters from the Luna to the Fierce cause it's that good of a disc. (Don't tell McBeth🤫)
WOW, first I liked this even more than I expected to. Both of you are athletes that I have learned a lot from over the years. But when you two started talking about being on the road it caused a pang of pain. After almost 4 years on the road I'm settled down in a house and as the cold and rain settles in I find myself second guessing myself. I know for me it is the best at this point in my life but wow I sure miss being on the road. Love you guys. Have a great off season.
Just started watching. Thanks for showing how the sausage is made. It would be easy af to edit & only show gr8 shots. Thanks for lowering the curtain, ladies.
picked up a little gem from Paige there. even if you think it's probably not the right shot, try it out in practice and remove all doubt for the tournament.
A great practice round with some great players. Hope you both have an awesome tournament! The way I like to think of poorly executed shots (no bad shots here), is I get to work on my scramble game. No point in dwelling on what's already happened, since you can't undo it. It gives you the opportunity to assess new lines, and work on shots that you don't usually practice.
Wonderful stuff! It's amazing to go along for the ride following the thought process of 2 friendly "rivals" helping eachother out =).. As far "stepout hyzer around trees" I do have some insight on that from years of being off the fairway. Those throws are essentially 90% upper body and arm because your legs become so locked in place in order to give you both a legal stance and a line to throw. The 2 principles that work for me are: 1) swing through close(r) to the body to avoid the early outside treehit and 2) use a "lead pec" powerpocket to allow the arm to sling through fully without yanking the disc off line (the more modern "mid chest" or "rear pec" powerpockets are far more dependant on momentum into a good weightshift to help the swing come through at the right spot). The only video example I know right off the bat for "lead pec" powerpocket would be Dan Beto's old 2008 driving video, but I think there might be one or two "patent pending" throws by Cale Leiviska (Waco tournament?) that pretty much pull the disc in all the way to the shoulder before slinging it. Edit: Matt Orum's style can be considered "lead pec" but In my opinion he is so unique it might actually be more correct to describe his style as "lead shoulder".
Paige saying try so you'll never have to think later if you should have. I feel this is one of the greatest things to tell anyone, not just in DG, but life. Trying is not just about the failure, or success, but should I waist the energy, or not?
You ladies are SHREDDING this course. Make it look way too easy 😂. That Leopard3 is a lethal weapon in Kona's hands. I find it more understable than the regular leopard and it's perfect for those low long wooded drives. Curious what's replacing that one in the new bag!
I'm a big Paige Pierce fan and root for you at every tournament. I recently discovered disc golf and have binge-watched every FPO tournament back through the end of 2019 (not a fan of MPO golf, too much testosterone-fueled competitiveness). I just wanted to let you know about an observation I made regarding putting results and the type of basket. I noticed baskets with chrome plated chains reject puts a lot fewer times than those with galvanized chains. Shiny chains are good; dull gray chains are bad. Keep up the great work representing women in athletics.
Throw a more overstable putter or upshot disc like a zone or md5. It was actually a wasp in fresh z plastic that made me understand clubbing down and throwing hard.
Brian here.. 52 y/o Vet, (near Harmony Bends)... Here's my deal.. I Cannot Putt!! My drives are Great, Both backhand and Forehand.. But, I miss 6ft putts, 7,8,9,etc.. but I can drop a 60ft Hyzer, or creative flexers.. I just wish someone could show me the Correct way To Putt!! (I think its because everything comes out of my hand, in hyzer). Any suggestion would be Appreciated!
Hey Brian, try adding more force to the bottom of the disc through your middle, ring, and pinky fingers to pop the disc up in the air flat. For me putting is less of a throw and more of a lob. If you have to, exaggerate the anny angle in your mind.
For me dealing with anger I give myself 10 seconds to be as mad as I absolutely want to then after 10 seconds I ask myself ok, how can I fix this or get out of this and it helps reset my mindset from mad to problem solver.
Glad your doing these kind of video's as I have learned so much about disc golf from you girls! As a fan I would love to see a video with you and Kristin Tattar! Thanks for the tips. Enjoy the off season

Thank you so much, and yes thank you to Kona and the GK team. They are fantastic!
i love PP laugh when Kona gives paige her putter hahaha
It was fun to watch! (it was nice to hear Kona on the mic!)

Loved every second of it. 2 of the best disc golf forms to watch and compare mechanics with. Thank you both for the hard work!
Love this type of content! Very helpful for me and entertaining as well.
My two favorite FPO players!

2:30 in and already a fantastic tip that I'll be applying in my next woods round
Awesome, my 2 favorites doing a solid practice round. Super excited to watch!
Paige wasn’t at Delaware, but Kona(and Colton)was the first person out on the course Monday morning trying different lines, ranging objects and taking notes. I was very impressed with how dedicated Kona and most of the touring pros are to their craft.
There's a lot to figure out before you get out on the course, and so many variables that could effect your shot!
This was truly enjoyable to watch!

It is such a fun disc to throw, I'm glad you like it too!
The synchronized putting on 12 was Fun! Nice job Ladies!!
Thanks Paige and Kona. I'll try taking a lot of this on board and hopefully using it to improve my game. I hope you'll be doing more of these in the future.
You're so welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@@paigepiercediscgolf I enjoyed it a lot. I got out to play earlier today, tried out some of the ideas and had a great session!
Great content here ladies. Really like the suggestions on sharpening our games. Thanks 👍
Digging the content, great job ladies!
Amazing, thank you!
Kona’s outfit is on point!
Always

Thanks for the great video Paige and Kona! Love hearing your thought process on the shots. I need to get my hands on one of those Passion discs soon!
Yes you do!!
The Passion is really solid. I thought it was going to be flippy but for my 300' power it's just really straight with a baby fade.
In the off season you might want to look into increasing your hamstring and quad strength. This can help with maintaining a smooth controlled form throughout your throw on shots in which accuracy more important than raw distance.

My home course of Hornets Nest. Great course with a lot of challenging shots.

I loved this ! wish there were more females out playing and totally support that. Thank You !
Kona is going to win a bunch in 2022. I think once her putt has the confidence of the other aspects of her game she'll be a dominant force on FPO.
Sweet video ladies!!!🌸💗🍨
Go girls. 🤘🏻💪🏻

Lub this😎 two of my favs😁
Hi paige
You heading back to the big island again in ur off season? Aloha
Wait, if you throw the same but club down, won't you turn the disc? I can't throw my putters the way I throw drivers
Throw a more overstable putter or upshot disc like a zone or md5. It was actually a wasp in fresh z plastic that made me understand clubbing down and throwing hard.

@@ronmellen-stier1081 Thanks! I'll try it out!
If konas dad wouldn't see this video she was totally ripping that passion!! Haha 😉
🔥
Is every hole's average 3.8??
A Kona Panis with a Paige Pierce putt.... just imagine that
For me dealing with anger I give myself 10 seconds to be as mad as I absolutely want to then after 10 seconds I ask myself ok, how can I fix this or get out of this and it helps reset my mindset from mad to problem solver.
How do you mis spell preparation? Or is that some RUclips glitch
Glad your doing these kind of video's as I have learned so much about disc golf from you girls! As a fan I would love to see a video with you and Kristin Tattar! Thanks for the tips. Enjoy the off season
I’m thinking that if you want to swing less improve your putting.
I want miiiiiiiiy coach to be Kona or Paige.... wahhhhhhh.😭
I love crepes!
