Anyone else here play? I used to play a lot when I was younger. I picked it up again a couple months ago. I kind of went back to basics, hit you tube, watched some clinics, and tried to rebuild my form, which was terrible. I had several fundamental problems in my form that were robbing me of power. I was trying to throw a 170 gram plastic wing, like I was trying to throw a man hole cover across the street.
I was stuck I could get 350ft pretty consistently for a long time. But then I would grip one off to the right, or get a good rip and it would 400ft, sometimes even as far as 480ft if it wasn't headed towards the basket. I honestly probably touched 500ft a couple times with shots going about 60 degrees away from the basket.
In brain that screamed to me that my form was off. And something was causing me to unload the disc without all the power attached to it. I had two major problems,{So far} one was planting me feet in straight line and the other was pulling from the front of the disc. This was causing me to strong arm the disc, and taking my hips mostly out of the equation. I am now hitting 400ft pretty consistently playing rounds, but the other night I was out throwing drives and threw 10 in row that were close to 450ft before I packed it up.
This kid from CO makes it look easy.
Maybe its the skinny jeans.
I need to go to the store.
