Shout out to Birmingham, AL and George Ward Park. Play the Blue Baskets. Lol.
I was about to say the same thing.
C'mon down to Lagoon Park or AUM in Montgomery
The best tip IMO is that you dont have to throw far, you have to throw to a good spot to throw your next .
My tip is you have to throw far. Because rec players are gonna get beat by intermediate players that are sand bagging. That’s why I don’t play many minis. I throw avg. 250ft. I still haven’t thrown under par because of 250ft. 250ft. Shots are not gonna get you birdies. I will argue anyone that distance is everything when you can only throw 250ft. Until you can surpass that 300ft mark then and only then is when putting is everything to get under par.
Totally! You have 3 tries to get the disc in the basket!....As for competition, yeah, probably don't want to play anything other than the lowest tier until you have some distance, but I play with a couple guys that have years on me and I stay in the game. Sometimes I win, sometimes I'm the longest drive, main thing to remember is, just have fun! Can't perform on the course when you're too busy worrying about other players!
I kinda disagree, maybe not for complete beginner, but for someone who has played disc golf half a year or so (like me). With short throws you can't play for birdie in most of the fairways and sometimes you do get a bogie or with bad luck even worse so you'd want to even that out on some hole.. Around half of the fairways on the 3 closest course which I go to have par 3's which are roughly 80-110m (260-345ft). If you can't throw more than 70m (230ft) it's almost impossible to birdie any of them. That means that HALF of the whole course is you getting a par at best and if you screw up there ain't much you can do to catch up.. This added up with some shorter fairways having quite small gaps or touchy shots you need to hit etc. makes the whole course a hell if you can't throw far on more open and longer fairways imo.
I'd say putting is the most important, but then comes long drives/tee shots.
I agree. Consistency is more important than risking terrible placement. Incremental improvement instead of grasping for a lucky shot.
Lol I’m throwing like 150 feet max. If I was throwing 250 I’d be stoked.
PDGA Pro here. This is all great advice not only for beginners but for higher levels too. Awesome video, Robbie!
When you mess up, just laugh. Laughing at yourself is one of the best ways to keep your calm.
I agree completely I used to get really frustrated because my friends would play way better than me and then try to hard and just make the hole worse. Now I realize that you shouldn't take yourself to seriously laugh it off and just get back to your game your not always gonna play your best
Gonna do this today at a local mini, cause i been getting annoyed when missing a line or putt that should be relatively easy
don't have to birdie ..just get par...well i need a beginner beginner's guide.
Seriously. I get excited when I get par.
@@2foleym that's the thing though. stop trying to throw too hard to make distance. Throw a putter for an entire round (or like 3 weeks). On hole one, just get it out there as far as you can, and fine tune from there. After a few holes, you should be able to throw 125-150ft with decent control. Should be able to start playing for par at that point. You'll never miss a fairway and your upshot will become fantastic.
Great point and here you go. Your 5 even MORE basic beginner tips to get you fewer big numbers and more 3, 4s and maybe yes a few 5s but not that many: 1. Ignore all macho idiots. Play the short tees, the rec. or am divisions and throw putters and understable mids. 2. Just put it in play. It's amazing how many strokes are saved just making 'progress' towards the basket. 3. Find a helpful teacher/coach/pro to WATCH you throw. No speeches and theory. Have them show you how to just get the dang thing to fly flat with enough spin to glide out there a ways. 4. Practice SUPER short putts. Like 10 feet. What you are practicing is making putts not missing them. And you can work on your form to get it to come in at a medium speed and dropping downwards into the basket. 5. Have fun and people will want to play with you. If you play enough rounds with good players (while standing behind them so you can see what they do well) you will learn fast.
@@robinmclean7203 so true also don't take it up at 38 with a bum shoulder lol
You started off like a real hype guy, and I thought maybe you were going to be a tool, but then you were really chill and mellow. That was rewarding.
Was thinking the exact same thing. lol
The self-talk segments are GOLD; so relatable!
This might be the best disc golf advise ever. Another one to remember, it's just a game. Unless you make you living playing it, it is just a game.
Here is your participation trophy
I hate you
I lol'd at the missed putt. I have to say I've been there. 🤣
Dude, I have watched every disc golf instructional video on youtube and your tips are blowing my mind. It's like you made this video just for me haha. Thank you! I can't wait to get out and throw now!
too kind!! Hope it helps!!
Recently came across this video and it was exactly what I needed. I was coming off one of the worst rounds I have ever played, and it was during my local clubs tags. Nothing felt worse than walking away with that day with a number most people didn't know existed for the club. Since then, I started following your tips, reducing the stress and playing for my pars and it has made the world of difference.
It is easy for pros to say "just putt with confidence as they knock down 40 footers, but when you are in the middle of a round just hoping to draw metal at some points, it is great to have these tips to fall back on.
That is my long way of saying, Thank you for making this and many other of your videos as they are truly helping me and I am sure others. If there is any way to help support the channel, I would be interested in those details.
As a beginner i really needed this pep talk broski. Thanks for the tips.
What i like best about disc golf aside from the relationship I'm building with my son, is the community.
Everyone i meet is encouraging and helpful and down to simply have fun and be in the moment.
Bo thank you for exsisting I absolutely love your vibe, the comedy you share with others is the best thing you can give. Laughter ✌🏼
Make sure to take care of yourself and your mental health, you're important. 💖
As a beginner that has played a handful of tag rounds I can attest that these are very helpful tips, especially the stay in your lane tip. Thanks, man!
3 years later and still solid advice! Glad to have seen this before my round today 🤘
I'm glad I stumbled across this video. I started playing disc golf late summer in 2020. I played my first tournament this year and it was amazing, and your tips will help new players.
Great stuff man, I appreciate the lighthearted fun-ness of your content. Keep it up brotha
Absolutely love your videos.......I have watched at least 15 in the last few days.....the ones on upshots literally improved my game immediately......Keep up the great work
Just got into disc golf, this is the first video I've seen and all I could pay attention to were all the boardgames in the back! Cheers!
First time I've seen one of your videos & I must say I enjoyed it immensely! Just played my first tourny recently & these all sound like very helpful, informative tips. Thx.
I would add this: play with people that are clearly better than you! Will you lose? Probably. What you will gain, however, is new skills. Watch the other person throw, see how they approach their shots. I can tell you from experience, the REALLY good league players only want to see you succeed. Don't be afraid to ask for them to watch your throws and provide constructive criticism. More often than not, they are more than happy to do so!
Edit: Really good tips video! A lot of people tend to forget how important the mental game is.
This is very true
I used to do this with skateboarding... always trying to play better skaters in a game of skate
Robbie you are the MAN - thank you for all of your content, top notch episodes and excellent tips!
I appreciate the tips. I find one thing that has really helped my game as a newbie was not trying to throw my arm out trying to make distance like the pros. Once I slowed down my arm motion, I became lot more accurate. Big difference between throwing from bushes than middle of fairway
GREAT videos and advise. Just got my first game in at age 65 and looking forward to lots of improvement following these tips. lol Cheers !
I like how the tips weren't about how to play in a physical but a mental sense which is the part I've been tripping up on lately thank you for the video
Well, the intro alone made me subscribe.
I appreciate the humor within the honesty 👍
For anyone who plays BALL GOLF as well as disc golf, this advice applies to that sport as well. These tips are so simple and so obvious but also so often forgotten and so helpful. Great video.
This was an amazing video and not only was the info very helpful, but your presentation was fantastic! Thank you! I've played 4 rounds so far, and am watching a Ton of disk golf content! You are indeed among the most helpful!
So much appreciate your advice and your positive attitude! Great video!!
Love you video as I have been doing many of these things….. so thank you! Also I noticed you have the board game smash up so you just became even cooler and earned my subscription!
Really great video Robbie :) I found you out this week, and I like the serious/funny switching it is really entertaining and helpful at the same time ! I'am myself a beginner at disc golf and I'am enjoying so much this game at the moment :) Subscribed, and I'll be there for future videos ! Keep up the great work.
Dude killer advice!! Just found your videos! I’m impressed! Love it! Keep it coming!
I need to stay following these tips. Thanks for helping my mental game.
Brand new to disc golf, this is stellar advice even for outside of disc golf. Bravo.
Great video, very relatable for beginners like me. I like that you make the game approachable.
What a great video , simple and underrated advice 👍🏻 keep up the great work mate !
This is great stuff! I'm going to be playing novice at my first singles tourney soon, and I think these tips will come in handy!
Great stuff!!! Glad I found the channel!!! Had me laughing and learning!!!
Great stuff man. Some of these tips are great tips for life too! 🤣
I love when me n the boys all play good together
Great stuff! Thanks for a fantastic video. Loved the fun and the edits.
Right on man! 👍May your throws be with you.....
This is the first video I ever saw from Robbie, gives good tips, and happy to see where he is now
Love the humor in acting out the scenarios.😀
Love the collection of table top games in the background.
I have watched this video several times. Very good advice for any tournament player. I like to rewatch this when I get the nerves before a tournament
Tied for 6th out of 24 and shot a personal best round on the first of two.
This was awesome, great advice and I really think this will help me in my future rounds. Thanks a lot 😊💯🙏🏽
A fellow disc golfing board gamer! My two favorite hobbies!
Been watching a lot of your videos for a few days. Hoping to put some of it to practice this weekend.
I like the “there ain’t no shame in my game” tip with sticking to what you throw that works.
Also I do think learning what the others are doing may reveal something better for yourself Only if it’s within your beginner abilities.
😂 5:45 I like to save time and just throw my whole bag in the basket in those situations lmao
I used to be like that cuz I can’t wait to put them all in until I realise every stroke counts.
Approach every hole like it's your favorite.
Playing my first PDGA-sanctioned tourney in a couple of weeks. This was helpful me. Love your attitude!
Hoping to do the same myself...good luck!
How'd you do?!
Nice stuff man, as a beginner this was really helpful, subbed.
Needed to hear this, thanks man!
Seriously great advice here. Highly recommended for Nubies, Ams and even talented but still new 'Advanced' players.
Learnt it a hard way!!! Wish I saw this earlier!! Great tips! Fun video! Love it !!
This stuff cracks me up. Hope to see the channel grow. Keep wearing headbands and I'll keep watching.
XoXSLIMXoX SLIMnation you got it!!
The intro was good enough for me to subscribe lol. Love it. Ok, now, back to the video.
I'm new to disc golf. These videos are awesome.
Great info! Found your channel last night. George Ward is where I learned to play, way back in 1998... Getting back to playing at age 43 now.
Good advice and happy to see a fellow disc golfer who enjoys board games! ;)
About 2 weeks ago I started following you on IG. Weird how YT recommended your videos now but I’m cool with it. Great video with important tips to keep in mind while playing.
As board gamers who just started playing disc golf, it’s so fun to see your room! :D Great games and a good looking table! Thanks for the video :D
I love this vid Robbie, you just nailed it and your acting is hilarious! 😁
This is so relatable and hilarious
Great edutainment. Thank you!
Great instructional humor! 😂 First AM Womans 40+ tournament for me this weekend, great tips to take with me! Thank you!
really digging this edit man. Appealing to the eye
Great pointers, thank you!
Entertaining and educational, great video!
I'm a total beginner. Thanks for the tips, these are solid
Can we talk about the gaming table and stacks of board games... Maybe a vid explaining that... From a disc golfer and gamer. Great tip vids by the way
JoelLivin lots of chatter on the gaming setup. Maybe we’ll purchase the Birdie board game and play it for a video?
@@RobbieCDiscgolf I came here to talk about the games and sweet table too.
Saw the games and instantly paused to see what he got lol
This a bumyong table?
I came for the disc golf tips, but I stayed for the sense of humor.
Well done!
Great video man you had me cracking up! I started playing last summer with my 2 teenage boys cause of COVID and everything else was closed lol. We suck but we have a lot of fun. I parred my first round a couple weeks ago so that was awesome!
Hilarious and so true!!!!!!! My Raider stays on deck!!! The missed putt scene is my favorite! 😂 😂 😂
Great video!! Thanks for good advice
I've got my first tournament Saturday and I'm so nervous. I know I'm a bottom of the barrel type player, so I don't need to win, I just need to play the best of my ability. If I can do that, I'll consider it a success. Thanks for the video, these were great tips.
Got a new sub from me. About to play my first tournament and can't wait to use these tips!
Awesome video thank you.
Laughed a few times and learned a bit. Thanks.
Love the attitude man!
This video help me so much👍
I love your acting in these vids :D Anyway great tips thank you much!!
Hello from a fellow board game geek and disc golf lover!!
Good tips, man! I like not comparing yourself to others. I can be a bit stubborn when it comes to taking tips from other people, I'm gonna open up to that a little more.
Great tips! Thanks!
I have a tornament this weekend and I'll take this advice! Plus George Ward is a nice park to play in
I like the advice of playing for par. Taking crazy risks is great when you want to do a practice round amd learn. If it's competitive maybe throw lighter, or take a fairway driver over distance to get through a tight fareway and play for par
I think keeping your cool goes so much further than you can imagine it can effect your card players and they won’t want to play with you are in the future
Nice Board Game Collection! Thumbs up!
Thanks for the tips! looking forward to using them this weekend! Also mad respect for the game shelf, some of my favorites! :D Edit: just finished the vid. LOVE THE VIBES!!! CHEERS
Great and fun video!
As a new player I appreciate this thanks my dude
Great video man!
Wow! Everyone of these things is me. What should I expect my game to be after 8 months? Pro status. You just showed me how ridiculous I look playing. Things are about to change baby things are about to change. Some times you have to see the ridiculous to realize it’s you. Thanks Robbie.
this was very helpful
When you started chuck putting!! Bahaha my buddy and I just did this the other day as a bad round stress relief. Tennis grunts and all (people probably thought we were nuts)
Great video. I kept these tips in mind and scored my best round ever at Clay, -1 from a previous best of +3 and average of +5! More enjoyable and lower scores, win win!
Let’s go!!!
Those are some great board games in the background there!
