But this will ruin the “Is this disc right for you” segment 😂

Patches O’houlihan!

If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.

What?!.... ooomph! 😂

I was hoping someone made this joke, and I was not disappointed. Thank you!

You can't touch this!

No... Just no

what do you mean? for Anthony it worked well.

I concur

It shouldn't. Having the disc/hammer the proper distance away from the chest, and a forced (from the weight) follow through just looks like a rounding issue. "Pulling" the disc is more likely to cause rounding, because to "pull" in a "straight line" while rotating and shifting weight requires you to continually change the direction of the disc, moving it around your rotating body, to get the "straight line," and it involves shoulder and back muscles that are hard to get to STOP at the right moment. You are likely to round, and it's harder to get snap. If you hold the disc in front of you, in the power pocket, and "karate chop," that is the disc golf throw. Rotate back and "karate chop" out as your rotation peaks, that is the reach back. Rotating forward again, with a relaxed arm should ALLOW the arm to tuck it back into the power pocket - proverbial lag. Then "karate chop" out as your rotation forward passes the power pocket is the throw. The release should be slight out in front/away from you, at 10 o'clock. The momentum should then lead to a follow through. This hammer drill he's doing uses the weight of the hammer to exaggerate the sensation of how that should work and feel. Part of that is the 90 degree elbow/forearm and 90 degree at the shoulder. If that is correct the disc should be further out in front of you than what feels natural. But it also allows you to stay more relaxed, and allows you to feel the release point, which should be in about that 10 o'clock position. The weight of the hammer tries to use newton's law to continue moving in a straight line, so at the peak of the arm extension it meets resistance from the arm and feels heaviest as it tries to pull free. THAT point is the release point, and at that point the disc should pull itself free from the grip. If it's done right the only thing that can mess it up is trying to force the timing and release early, instead of letting that point of max weight force the disc out of the grip, or grip locking. When switching from the hammer to a disc, add to this drill holding the disc with only your thumb and one or two fingers, so it's almost impossible to grip lock, but with that weakened grip TRY to hold on to it. At the peak, when the disc/hammer try to continue straight, but your arm runs out of extension it will snap free, and your rotating body will create the follow through. There shouldn't be any rounding. It might look like it because the arm/disc are so far out in front, but everything should move in a straight line, so it LOOKS LIKE a "pull." The weight of the hammer, and the weakened wrist/ grip from the two finger drill also let you feel the disc/hammer force the wrist to cock as the reach back stops and the body rotates, changing the direction of the disc to moving forward, creating lag in your arm AND wrist. That cocked wrist will add the extra little pop at the end of the extension, like a bull whip. That last little extension is the proverbial snap. Reaching that elbow extension from a "chop" creates a solid stop point, whereas a "pull" with your shoulders softens that point and creates rounding. All of that is easier to feel and understand with the hammer.

It's a hammer drill, deal whit it

Yeah a little bit. If he was struggling with rounding I would have taught a different drill, but he was struggling with the opposite of rounding so this drill fits.

@@DannyLindahl Makes sense. I think im also struggling with the "opposite of rounding". I will definitely bring a Hammer next time I hit the field (no pun intended)

Watch Dave Feldberg throw.

@@seabas22 anything special I should keep an eye on? thx

@@videosverigenu4621 He barely bends his elbow and swings the pendulum.

There is no part of this where I said to spin as fast as possible. Complete malarky.

@@DannyLindahl and he regrets the name of the group because he doesn't teach to spin either lol

Reciprocating Dingle Arm and Hammer Toss was done many years before Spin and Throw was around. Bradley told me I should remove those vids because it's nothing like throwing a hammer.

Youre special arent you

For us looking at them, it appeared to be clockwise. From their point of view it was ccw.

So many have. Especially when my hair used to go up more. I'll take that though! He goes on some sweet adventures!

This was a drill to correct a mistake, not teach from the ground up. Rounding is incredibly common from people who don't have a base of form knowledge, but not Anthony's issue so I took a different approach from a well established teacher. Spin and throw focuses on spinning as fast as possible and I wholeheartedly disagree with that premise. He didn't invent that idea, he's just taking a small part of the throw and focusing entirely too much on it and causing rounding in more people than he's helping.

He admits he didn't invent it but he has broken the backhand down and put together a teaching method and drills to help people. I came from a ultimate background been playing a long time but was always capped on distance. I did reach a 900 rating and have won tournaments in different divisions. Play masters now. Tried to rework my throw and completely lost my swing. Went back to only mids for awhile. Anyway I think he makes some good points and has good video breakdowns of pros.

@@michaelgollin7853 He has some good points but gets a bit lost in the sauce if you know what I mean. He cultivates a very close minded community and seems to have a "I'm the only one correct" mentality. The parts of value can be found from less toxic places, and the rest is just wrong.

I hear what your saying. Thnx for the reply. I enjoy all the content u guys put out. Keep up the good work. Visit us in Nantucket some time..

Nobody else teaches what Bradley teaches. He invented everything including the internet.
