@@tristan_tanner13 hey Tristan, if you get this...when you say curl the wrist, do you mean inward toward your body, downward like the coffee pour direction, or a combination of both? Cheers.
Sheesh bro! Thats the clearest and most value filled disc golf tutorial video I’ve ever watched. Especially for intermediate players. PLEASE keep making these!
Excellent...best introduction to a disc golf video EVER... you stated what the problem was...plus # of people that you've seen have this issue (builds credibility)...what the video was going to do for the viewer and then got started...THANK YOU
Dang, wish more of RUclips was like this. What an actionable video. I almost never comment but this one totally deserves it. Great job, got a sub from me. Well done. Would love to see some forehand advice as well.
I’ve watched a ton of form help videos and this is the first one I’ve seen that explicitly mentions curling the wrist. I’ve got something to practice now.
Same. I actually figured that one out on my own when I thought my spacing was pretty good and still felt that I was rounding. Of course, I forgot to concentrate on it.
Dude, this is the only video that solved a rounding problem I have been having and you addressed two of it others don't. I was thinking why i kept rounding even after reach out instead of back.
SO refreshing with someone going straight to the information, good tips and how to execute without first talking 10 minutes about what they are going to teach you. Awesome. If I could, I'd subscribe again.
to add to my comment; What I've seen on my form records is that when I get to the part where you're starting to pull with your core and shoulder, I just pull too fast and my wrist is kinda "unloading".. like it's breaking outwards before the hit, so I notice a huge difference in spin when I slow down and get the timing right.
Watching this late at night so I can't go immediately try it out. But I love the concise tips that are straight to the point and with excellent explanation as to what and why you're doing something wrong. Eager to get out to do some field work and put these into practice. Thanks!
Thank you Tristan! I tend to forget about curling my wrist sometimes and i feel like im going crazy because i can't throw as far or accurate. This video is exactly what i needed!
I want to echo the comments I've read: this is very concise, easy to understand and not full of useless filler info. Excellent video.I will share this with my friends because we could all use the help!
I like to say that your form is the one i most try to emulate and watching the smoothness of your form has added 75% more accuracy to my shots. Today actually i was thinking about the curling of my wrist and ended getting the exact and nigh on perfect shot on a hole ive been trying to 2 for 4 years
You just nailed a bunch of my problems. The head has been a huge one. Whenever I commit to head down the disc is always much flatter and straighter. It's a hard habit to break. I keep forgetting about the wrist thing. A good reminder to think about today.
Any good brace tips? I feel like I plant my front foot, but don't actually brace, I keep my weight back too much. I am currently just working on a one step, making sure my weight goes forward and I am centered more. That is helping, but whenever I add a full run up, I still struggle to get forward and brace. I will keep drilling the one step until it becomes my form.
@tristantannerdiscgolf thanks. This video alone helped a ton today. By not opening the wrist on the reach back, I was able to throw much more straight and consistent in one session. It actually made the whole weight shift feel comfortable and smooth. Still lots to tweak, but it was a big help. I was throwing these beautiful dead straight floaty putter shots. I do have to get the nose down now, as my mids and my drivers were really high and not going much farther. I feel more consistent now and see a path forward. Thank you so much!
@@tristan_tanner13seriously, while making our video I implement the wrist curl and it was insane how it all came together. It was the final piece I’ve been missing 👍😎
I started playing around with this yesterday at my home course. This video has unlocked something for me that I haven't been able to figure out previously. Very to the point explanation that is immediately adding effortless distance to my throws. Now I just need to work on my aim when using it to make sure I understand where its releasing. Good stuff!
I've been playing casually for 20+ years. These quick videos are exactly the simple reminders I need to improve my game. I can watch these clips in the soccer field and then practice applying the adjustment. Thanks, Tristan!
I would like to say another positive comment about this. Even if form tips don’t work for everyone (due to misunderstanding or different body type or overall different mechanics that they want to use) I think this is very good food for thought. And, food for thought is exactly what this sport needs to grow. So if the form tips you’re talking about help you, then they serve as “data points” about what works for some people and what also doesn’t work for some people. Coming from you, you clearly honorably dedicated a lot of time into this amazing sport and it is a great privilege to see what works for you. This gives me great food for thought, and I think what works best for me is watching throws and just trying to copy… and also having videos like these in my head to add “stock” to arguments of why or why not certain things work for me. Thank you very much!
Gosh dang that open wrist was robbing me blind for a solid year and a half. My releases are all over the place with this wrist tweak but when i get em on line they do go further. So now i just gotta get my release timing dialed in with the wrist changes and ill be feeling pretty confident on the teepad. Thanks Tristan!
Guilty, guilty, guilty. You named my three bad habits. I knew two of them, but having trouble breaking them. The wrist curl thing i didn't know. Antilla is the only pro I can actually see doing this, so I thought it was optional. Great video! Very concise and easy to understand. Thank you sir!
Soooo gooood!!! Perfect breakdown, tip number 1 and 3 are things I've thought about changing just because it felt right but having it explained why it is important really makes me want to implement the changes right away! Thank you!!
Good tips , I'm going to go over them in the Spring.. I improved my distance 80 feet last summer from average 320 to 400 feet Drive , I had some hip issues from a prior sport injury that I was working out - and I've got that rectified with a great stretching routine...and not bad for a 50 year old dude.
Wow, this is the most concise and effective instructional video I’ve seen. TT coming out with a banger! Curl dat Wrist! Pop dat Backside! Smash dem Shots!!!
The stand-still drills did wonders for me last winter, I have a natural tendency NOT to follow the disc but I do set my sights properly ( you have to look 'where your disc' potentially SHOULD be going.. at some point in the movement) .. Yes stand still form drills are great.
I was working on form a lot the past few years but nothing made such a difference than keeping my eyes on the disc. Trying to keep the head back never worked for me. This tip really made a huge change for me. Thanks ❤
one year during a dglo practice round I watched you hit the base of the raised basket on 16 with a hope. that was cool as hell mister. trust this mans advice my friends
I like the last little bonus tip - to think like you're pulling from the inside of the disc. That's an interesting one. I'll have to implement that and see what it feels like.
Teaching online and teaching in person are very different. Language online has to be way more intentional. I’m actively working on it, glad you enjoyed!
I had a chance to try out a tech disc recently. Totally baffled everybody there by consistently throwing 58 to 60 mph with less than 600 RPM. ?! We thought there was a fluke with the equipment! Nope, I just have a serious lack of spin on my drives. Went out in the field with a mid-range after watching this- bam! Way more spin and way more carry. Thanks. I've been throwing 350 with hardly any spin. Looking forward to seeing what I can do when I can add some significant revolutions.
@@tristan_tanner13 I really like the pulling from the inside of the disc tip! And I was definitely doing the open wrist reach back. Thanks again. Just what the doctor ordered here.
I tried throwing with a too-curled wrist - the disc flew like with a grip lock. The positive is that it felt like I had 20% more power - so I will need to continue working on the brace and angel.
Well that's about as straightforward, to the point, and awesome as it gets!
Glad you enjoyed!
Roger that!

Seconded. Very clear, concise, yet enough explanation to instill confidence. Great video, Tanner.
Curling to bring the disc on line closer to the forearm
FInally someone who can explain disc golf without wasting time! Love it!
Glad you enjoyed!
most have something else to sell other than lessons - and they want to take up time for ad-revenue
This was the shortest and most helpful video I have ever watched when it came to throwing a backhand. This guy knows what he talking about.
Thanks for the simple break down.
You bet!
You explained in 3 minutes what took me a year to figure out on my own. Great video.
Glad it helped!
Sheesh bro! Thats the clearest and most value filled disc golf tutorial video I’ve ever watched. Especially for intermediate players. PLEASE keep making these!

I’ve watched a ton of form help videos and this is the first one I’ve seen that explicitly mentions curling the wrist. I’ve got something to practice now.
Do it, it works!
@@bloodsoup8377 agreed, holding the wrist curl deeper is an important point that you don’t hear about much
Same. I actually figured that one out on my own when I thought my spacing was pretty good and still felt that I was rounding. Of course, I forgot to concentrate on it.
@@brianc1651 I would think it has to be done in the field?
I find that concentrating on the middle and ring finger really improves accuracy (with proper foot placement) when gripping from a curled wrist.
3 minute video taught me more than watching disc golf tutorials for months
Disc Golf instructional courses are broken
id have to agree seen so many videos but this is gold, just realized i dont really curl my wrist much at all
Same I've watched so many video that were giving me just as many bad habits as good ones. This video quickly corrected some of those bad habits.
Dude, this is the only video that solved a rounding problem I have been having and you addressed two of it others don't. I was thinking why i kept rounding even after reach out instead of back.
Glad it made an impact for you!
so much info in so few words! i'm a fan!
Glad you like it!
On point. All killer, no filler.
I started with my wrist more curled and increased my spin from 1400 inconsistent to hitting a pr of 1600+ RPM and consistent 1500!. Great tips!
Heck yeah, that’s great!
SO refreshing with someone going straight to the information, good tips and how to execute without first talking 10 minutes about what they are going to teach you.
Awesome. If I could, I'd subscribe again.
that last tip with the pull-focus being on the closest part of the disc is actually REALLY good!
to add to my comment; What I've seen on my form records is that when I get to the part where you're starting to pull with your core and shoulder, I just pull too fast and my wrist is kinda "unloading".. like it's breaking outwards before the hit, so I notice a huge difference in spin when I slow down and get the timing right.
Happy to help! Definitely makes a difference!
I don’t really understand this tip. Tristan can you explain more
When you were demonstrating not to look where the disc was going and that kid was walking by my whole body tensed up. Great comedic timing.
I do my best to not throw discs at kids!
Lmao I thought the same thing. I was like... oh no he's about to bean that kid...
wow, my hair grew back watching this video. thanks tanner
Any time!
Great stuff, just what I needed! I'm going to have to save this, so I can bury it in my head and practice. Thanks, good to see ya again!
Watch it as many times as you need!

Daang. Just used this the last two days. Amazing. Thanks.
Great to hear!
This got me over the 380-390 hump, I threw 418 ,410, and 405 in one day . The wrist curl was the biggest thing for me .
That’s awesome!
Good tips. The drill that pulls it all together. I would like to see a drill that gets the hips moving like that.
I can do that!
Honestly the 2nd tip makes more sense than most videos I’ve seen in the 2 years I’ve been playing! Good stuff!
Glad it helped!
holyyyyy pls do more of these! i just got tons of info and it only took 3 minutes… putting next
Will do!
You the man! Good luck in the upcoming season!

i had the same issue in ball golf, not keeping my eye on the ball. it's like we are pets about to play fetch with ourselves LOL
Always ready to chase something!
The first two tips are fundamental are exactly my problem, the third is the one I learned.
Glad it helped!
Why have I never heard the phrase back end rounding? Positive I'm doing it and have never seen a video highlighting it. Thank you!

James Proctor has insane wrist curl, and he did pretty well at MVP. Point taken.
Of the three tips, this is clearly my biggest shortcoming.
Great example!
Exceptional breakdown Tanner!
Thank you!
I’m 51 and soakin’ my bones, but as soon as I get out, I’m going practice that! Thanks!
Best tutorial ever. Why does no one else speak my language?
Teaching online and teaching in person are very different. Language online has to be way more intentional. I’m actively working on it, glad you enjoyed!
Good info for the my beginner like myself. I’ll most definitely keep these concepts in mind on the next round.
Glad it was Helpful!
Random Tristan Tanner post hit hard... Need some more content from my fellow Arizonian.
Won’t be so random anymore!
omg. a GOAT of training has been born !
I had a chance to try out a tech disc recently. Totally baffled everybody there by consistently throwing 58 to 60 mph with less than 600 RPM. ?! We thought there was a fluke with the equipment! Nope, I just have a serious lack of spin on my drives. Went out in the field with a mid-range after watching this- bam! Way more spin and way more carry. Thanks. I've been throwing 350 with hardly any spin. Looking forward to seeing what I can do when I can add some significant revolutions.
That will help you so much!

Thanks for watching!
That was rapid 🔥Tristan!
Thank you!
I tried throwing with a too-curled wrist - the disc flew like with a grip lock. The positive is that it felt like I had 20% more power - so I will need to continue working on the brace and angel.
Release point can definitely change with more wrist curl bc most people are used to early releasing!
Nice style of video. Keep these coming.
