    Another point for throwing up hill: if the hill is very steep you can end in a situation where you have terrible footing. So in some cases stand still is mandatory and that should also affect the disc selection. Another shot I've had success with is a forehand roller, given the terrain calls for it of course.

  • @jeffreydheere4737
    @jeffreydheere4737 2 года назад +2

    The one thing that stands out to me to question is that when throwing uphill, you 'hopefully' are keeping the nose angle down. The disc (and your hands) path is still a straight line with the nose of the disc angled down relative to that path. The path just starts at a lower point and ends higher. If you get the nose up relative to that pull path, you'll get a floating and stalling flight rather than a drilling fast flight, but going uphill.

    • @davelopez9161
      @davelopez9161 2 года назад +1

      In fact, one video I watched said that to get the nose down, start lower on your backswing.
      I have a very short hole that is down hill with a low ceiling. On this hole I start high on my backswing and try to "air skip" the disc under the branches. The high backswing gets the nose up.

    • @Latitude64

      Totally correct, the flatness is always relative to the flight path needed, and not earths gravity. / Johannes

  • @xEricStephensx
    @xEricStephensx 2 года назад +1

    Love it. I do feel like you needed to mention the whole part of your footwork and timing is going to be way off. If your run/walk up is up hill your plant foot is going to hit the ground earlier then your use to and your throw will want to come out early and opposite for downhill.

  • @StephenKatt
    @StephenKatt 2 года назад +1

    My home course has a lot of uphill shots with tree lines on the sides, so you really have to be able to land in a small area on the hill or at the top of the hill. I've found myself reaching for something stable or even slightly overstable (buzzz or roc3) but throwing it very hard on anhyzer. It fights out of the anhyzer by the time it crests the hill and lands fairly flat. Not ideal for uphill distance, but seems better for uphill precision.

    Hi Team Jonathan64 :) You make videos with a very nice vibe. These are all exactly what discgolf friends feel, talk about and share with each other. Helping each other with juicy humor and celebrating in heart but showing off bitter when someone is doing something great :P You are very welcome to visit our Estonian parks :) ok but now for the important thing - I also make videos on my YT channel just to learn new parks etc. I noticed you are using a drone. Have you tried to chase a disc with a drone during a throw? Can its "follow the object" function automatically respond to the rapid movement of a disk, or does someone always have to operate the drone manually to follow the drive from some distance. How does it behave in the forest? You are doing the right thing and I wish you happy moments in discgolf and everyday activities! Big up :)

    Awesome video guys! However I *really* don't agree with throwing faster discs uphill simply because it "plays longer" yet I see great players on video doing it all the time (especially at DGLO on the Toboggan course), there are certainly times when smashing the fastest disc you have is appropriate and depending on the wind and whatever else you have to deal with other than the hillside it might be the right choice but if you have an uphill tunnelshot I prefer a disc I can rely on to land flat so depending on the slope I go either gobi or fuse (I did have a patrol for uphill hyzerflips a few years ago but I gave it away to help promote our sport, more people need to know about it... especially those that do yoga or have picnics right next to a basket).

    • @MaximilianBerkmann

    You guys wanna make a video on like a gym routine for the off season? So much snow over here that even if I played with ribbons taped to my discs, I still wouldn't be able to find them. BUT would still like to improve my form and overall physique.
    Maybe someone like Silver Lätt or Kristin could help you with the exercises.

    Something you didn't mention about throwing downhill.. Just like when you when you talk about disc'ing up for speed throwing up, you can disc down for speed when throwing downhill. You don't need to throw a speedy disc to throw far if you have a lot of air to work with, you need to throw a disc with a lot of GLIDE. This is typically a putter! There is something magical about watching a putter glide forever, slowly downhill. It will take long to reach its target ofc, but luckily this is not a metric that carries any punishment in discgolf. In my experience, throwing the distance driver downhill will cause it to zoom to the ground fast, or drop out of the sky. Because it is very very hard to get the perfect nose angle on the disc, because it has to match the speed perfectly. If you throw a putter slightly downwards and hard and flat, it wont care as much, it will just glide... and because it doesn't need a lot of speed to maintain its flight, it goes further.
