    People should worry less about power pocket, and worry more about rounding.

    making form is like cocking a dinner, more salt or more carrots etc to make it better just add salt or something else, watch all video ask ai look at slow motion of any discgolfer to discover new things, campare, split up shadow swings in smaller parts, campare to a trebuschet or a tennis player to find out perfect form and find out optimal release to get most speed of everything, so many ways to throw a disc its crazy no one know the optimal form, use physics to calculate angles, never settle there might be tricks that no one figure out yet. lets find them 🤗

    I agree, we all can't implement perfect form from the very beginning. We have to start somewhere and work on it every day. Keep up the good thing we are good at and work on the others to elevate your game. Thanks for watching and providing feedback.

    @let_it_fly_dg5 күн бұрын

    I love Simon's form, for him, it is a timing thing. If you watch him throw technical shots, he does the thing with his reach back but he also gives it a bit of a stomp with his plant foot to initiate the throw. Timing can be tough but once you get a good swing path, it takes time to dial it in. Thanks for the feedback.

    Fairly new to DG, like 5 months in. I thought I was getting the backhand down, got my distance up to 270-300. huge accomplishment for me and my old joints, I started at like 50-80 ft. But it didn't feel slow and smooth, I could't figure that out. This whole time I was pulling the disc through my shot. I got a little excited after watching this rn, I went outside and tried it. I got slow and smooth, with good distance :) Needs work because Im still trying to go a bit too fast, but I am geeked to try an work with this technique. Thanks for the tips bro!

  • @let_it_fly_dg
    @let_it_fly_dg7 күн бұрын

    I hope it helps, come to find out you can improve your swing path if you slow down and focus on allowing everything to get into place correctly and speed it up over time. Strength is not as important as speed. You can be fast and not strong.

    You are on the right track ... 1. There is no power pocket. Everything just moves. 2. There is no rotation, don't try to rotate, just move your weight and the disc forward. Your insights are 2 fold: 1. Don't over rotate the shoulders. Form the position of your "power pocket" the shoulder rotation (to drive the disc) should stop. They then rotate again in the follow through. There is some rotation, but from the power pocket to the release the hand needs to be moving faster than the shoulders. 2. Delay the throw. You establish a coil with the back swing, which should peak when your front foot, the heel, hits the ground. Shift your weight to the front foot, then throw.

  • @angarizna9337
    @angarizna933713 күн бұрын

    Great Video!! I still feel like ironically when you don't try to bring the disc forward with your arm your shoulder rotation allows the disc to come farther forward in the pocket as you start to push it outward.

  • @let_it_fly_dg
    @let_it_fly_dg13 күн бұрын

    I agree, this is an issue I have right now. I have to restrain myself from allowing the disc to proceed to a deep pocket. I almost think once the disc gets close to my back shoulder, I start to push the disc out or away from my body. However, I have noticed torso rotation is important for this to work correctly. I will be making a follow-up video about this shortly. But it is a good start. Thanks for the comment.

The main point: different parts start and stop in sequence: - First lower body starts moving (weight shift) - Lower body stops - Arm goes to position 1 - Torso starts moving (rotation) - Arm in position 2 - Torso stops - Arm starts moving - Arm stops - Disc flies

    Very good video. I'm wondering about the shoulder, would you say you are keeping the shoulders even, or are you pushing your throwing shoulder forward compared to the off arm?

  • @let_it_fly_dg
    @let_it_fly_dg15 күн бұрын

    Great question. For the most part, I usually try to stay hollow. Basically pushing both shoulders forward, but I have been experimenting with just the throwing shoulder. The most important thing is not to pull and try to keep both shoulders level. Basically, the arm has some stability so it doesn't collapse but the arm is loose enough to just hang on for the ride from the rotation of the torso.

    I'm glad it helped. I like to explain things in a simpler term. But more importantly, if it makes sense to me, I can explain it in a way that most people can understand. What I really like about slowing down is the amount of control I get with the disc. Thanks for the comment.

    @let_it_fly_dg15 күн бұрын

    This is just the start of the video, I think there is more when it comes to the elbow position with rotation. I have been getting really good distance, but I really need to figure out with more field work, what is the cause for extra distance with slow reactions. Maybe I will elaborate in an upcoming video. Thanks for the feedback.

    RIght throw looks better - 'deeper' into the pocket and more rotation before sending it out.

    Yes, but I have been experiencing something lately without a deeper pocket. Check out my new video and try it yourself. I find myself throwing further now with less power and not incorporating a deep pocket. It is getting interesting to see the difference in distance and control. Let me know how to new video works out for you.

    I tend to have this happen more naturally on shorter putter drives and upshots. I’m trying to be more relaxed and throw softer and it actually comes out quite a bit hotter than expected! Rotational speed is not to be overlooked!
