I think Calvin can get that distance even without a full reach-back because he can produce the “whip” action better than most. Seems like he engages all his other muscles with perfect timing and whips around super fast
@@seekrdiscgolf There's more than one right way to swing a golf club (look at Jim Furick), and the same for DG. Not everyone is gonna look like Will Shusterick when they throw, and thats ok.
@@bcp5296d I love how you are challenging this “flash and no substance” disc golf channel that insults the professionals. It’s deserved. They come out with like 6 videos and have spent their mortgage on their studio/website without first establishing themselves as a trust worthy RUclips channel.
@@seekrdiscgolf I sent you a private message before I posted publicly and you didn't seem open to discussion with your sarcastic response. Sorry to have bothered you. Good luck!
@@seabas22 I agree that it is a little jerky, but if your timing is right it doesn't matter. Tiger woods is more jerky than Fred Couples, and look at bryson dechambeau, very jerky.
What you are seeing is young players adaptation to diversity in the human body. Muscular structure, etc being different for everyone, if you learn at a young age, your body will kind of just do it. Your body forms around the way you throw, as you are young and still growing. A lot of it has to do with the ability to twist or lack therof, and the makeup of your back and shoulder muscles. That's my take anyway. I know folks with horrible form who throw 450+. They started at a young age, and their body style is different. Shoot look at GG. No one will ever teach you to drive with your left arm over your right like that.
Yeah I feel like Calvin Hamburg kind of has her throw like that by not straighten out his arm all the way kind of keeping it bent a little bit, and then some players like Simon been their arm on purpose so they don't throw as far
Solid advice. I think Calvins form does look like shit although personally I think Ricky's looks pretty bad ass. Both monster disc golfers , but yeah I've noticed this. Barbsy, Luke humphries, Joel freeman and a few other pros have weird shitty looking form too I noticed.
@@seekrdiscgolf Not bad at all, you just subscribe to a recipe for success that works for the normal body type. DG is still in it's infancy, you should be open to learning and teaching based on body type, not one recipe. Golf has been played for close to a thousand years, and folks are still revolutionizing the swing.
@@JustDisc I agree with you man. 100%. Watch the full video my friend. I just said they look bad compared to others. Don’t come off all hot and steamy 😆
I notice much more snap and explosiveness from Calvin’s style of reach back.

Yeah dude. It’s so crazy how that happens. Looks so bad, but still so good. 🥹

@@JustDisc I think that's a little harsh. I just like talking DG as I've been playing since 99 and theres a lot going on in the game right now.
Idk ever since I started curling my wrist like Ricky's I get more pop on my drives
Nice! You do you Cody! Hopefully you don’t harm or hurt anything.
Ricky and Calvin have something in common. Being lanky. This gives them a big advantage.
Bro don’t we know it! 😂
@@seekrdiscgolf I’m a good bit shorter (5’ 10”) but my wingspan is about 6’ 3” so I gotta try to use that to my advantage
Definitely some hot takes. IMO the "double move" is anything but fluid, it's jerky.
Not if you do it right. I love how you actively comment and message people you disagree with. Great taste man. Shows a lot. ✌🏽

Exactly. So odd. But it works!
calvin has an amazing amount of natural tension in his arm and lats. People who have more relaxed muscles will want to throw like OP says.
And then... there's Eric Oakley .)
It's all timing.
Calvins form is good. Bruh has rhythm. He would laugh at these videos

Same. It’s so bad. But whatever! Haha
