Really well done video! I am a 67 year old male who started playing a year and a half ago. I actually found Holyn Handley's advice for wonen's backhands to be a HUGE help. I immediately saw improvement and am throwing farther than ever, and much better accuracy. Uli's advice for putting in the wind has really helped as well.

this guy knows what he is doing

If you're in michigan I could 100% fix your putt. For now pick one spot say 7-15ft where you feel confident in 7-8 out of 10. Just practice that one distance until you get a pop feeling and keep doing that. Your body will adjust on the course for distance. Eagle McMahon does this and made a video about it a few years ago. Also talks about it in clinics. Pretend you're sliding the disc along a table from your bellybutton. For more power add some pendulum like Calvin. It's a good mix of power from the swing, spin from the arm and hand like a table, and touch from the loft and height you give it.

Thanks for this. Extremely well designed and edited videos. Rally enjoyed watching. As for the PDGA, I've been a subscriber now for a couple of months and for me it has helped some aspects of my game, with a lot more viewing and practice to come. Worth the relatively small investment, imo.

You always get a little worse when you change your form before it gets better. Its weird but true paul mcbeth even says it himself.

Slow is smooth and smooth is far is the right expression, simon got it backwards lol. It stems from slow is smooth and smooth is fast. edit: typo

I’m about six minutes into your video and want to drop a quick comment before I forget. When you’re putting you seem to stop your hand quickly and mid air when you release. What has helped me a lot with my putts is following through after I release. I used to stop my hand the way you do, and I would always miss short.

@@dmcreatives 100% and you got a jmilly co-sign

You inhale too much before you coil (hence the heavy puff post-toss). Filling your lungs with air makes your torso stiffer and you have to work real hard to coil. Try taking a deep breath then just letting your chest collapse on its own to expel air. That's roughly how much you should hold when throwing. It should be 15-30% of your max lung capacity, but should feel like basically nothing when you're standing up straight.

Think your put would get exponetially better if you just slow down the last part a bit. Just try to build the stroke a bit more like an x2 curve.

It is always hard to pay money for content, when there is so much free content around.. Overall youtube is a better source (because it has it all), but PDGA have a really structured course, with concentrated content from top players. It might not suit your play style, and other youtube will. For myself, I joined PDGA, and I immediately saw improvements to my putts, it was night and day for me... Even my friends noticed and agreed that I got more power, and more spin into my putts. And upped my 20' putts to 80% from 20% Thing is you can get it all from KZread, but on the PDGA you get it all, no need to look at someone teaching you bad stuff.

Congrats! I set NADGT as my goal this year. Same as you, my tournament play is nothing close to my casual rounds. I podiumed my first tournament at Roy G here in ATX...MA-40. Since then, I can't get a score lower than +9. Even scored +22 at Circle C. Ive NEVER EVER scored that low. Ive improved my putting this year immensely. Next is backhand to get to a consistent 300 ft. My max ever was 390 and that was 50 ft of rolling and 340 in the air. My first ace was last year: 327 ft skip in. Even with some success, consistency is the true goal once we break through. What division are you playing?

Oh I noticed lol... I've been editing this video since March and every time I got to that section I was disappointed in my consistency. Maybe I should make a video on consistency 🤔

I got a lifetime membership for 60 bucks because I was early

So what I heard was the academy didnt teach you specifically any new skill but rather forced you to try new approaches to your form or methods and that was the kicker. I know you’re a big Discraft guy and technically discs dont make the player but I will say Ive learned a lot just trying a variety of different discs from all companies. Even learning new things that I can apply to other types of discs. Id love to see a video of you trying a mixed bag of recommended discs from other companies for a month and seeing if you learn anything that you can then apply to your Discraft bag.

I can tell you right now, I have had zero luck with Slingshot. I signed up when he was running a promotion for 1 year of his videos and a 1 hour coaching session. After signup, I had zero communication from him and was unable to access the course videos. After weeks of attempts to contact with zero response(before the 1 on 1 which was originally scheduled for next week), I called my bank and got a chargeback on the funds. Still absolutly zero communication from him or tech support.

What is your pdga number?

A man plays disc golf. Same man desides to improve by actually training. improves. goes back to old style. loses. starts again. nothing learnt about how to improve and stay on the path. searches videos. looks at the mirror and desides to play for fun. welcome to being old.

I think you’re conclusion may be flawed. I’m not saying that the power academy or any in-depth analysis doesn’t help with improvement. But it’s more putting in your 10,000 hours and maybe the process of practice. Like Simon said it’s not how you do it. It’s the fact that you’re analyzing yourself. The fact that you’re practicing with the purpose of getting better. So as great analyzers of sports have concluded, it’s put in your 10,000 hours and improve your process of practice. And that may be any coaching. Especially multiple coaches. Helping you to analyze what’s working for you.😊

I respectfully disagree. While practicing has definitely helped, knowing what and how to practice made a huge impact in my game. This was especially true when I won the NADGT event. As I mentioned, there where multiple points in the round that I specifically remembered a lesson and then executed that exact shot. If that isn't the PowerDGA improving my game, I don't know what is

@@dmcreatives His conclusion is, he got better because of power Disc Golf. But his criticism was they had contradictory and inconsistent teachings. I think he got better because of the work he did an even inconsistent coaching can be good coaching. He put in his 10,000 hours and he improved his process of practice. And you probably need coaches to improve your process of practice. I never once stated that coaching or thinking about things your coach said would be a problem. But your explanation is what we call anecdotal evidence. Which is basically not evidence. Try looking into “10,000 hours” by Phyllis Lane or “Grit” by Angela Duckworth. And my observation is he would’ve gotten better just by practicing so much and by thinking about improving his practice. What studies don’t show is there some specific perfect practice or perfect technique. Even he said he thought the program worked, but it was contradictory. And even a top pro like Simon agreed that there’s not some perfect technique. So definitely practice, but also take from a number of coaches and analyze what works for you.

There’s just no substitute for putting in the work and like you did may be thinking about what work you’re doing and how effective it is for you.
