I believe you 👊

samsies!!!

I’m going to use this an turn into Anthony Barrela

Same dude

@@gannonbuhr2005 you kinda have an unfair advantage NGL...

Love to hear it. I can't work on more than 1-2 things at a time so I try to isolate

Good stuff- I was looking for more distance, the really cool thing was seeing my discs flying straighter than ever 👍

@@ArmoryDiscGolf it's a 2 in 1 technique! Lol.

Yessir- I think it also helps with rounding too, but I've been harping on that a lot lately and didn't want to talk too much in this video haha

@@ArmoryDiscGolf well I'll let you know how it goes for me, as I have a problem with both - particularly the elbow drop thing, but to some extent the rounding.

Haha appreciate it 👊

Appreciate it 👊

good thing or I wouldn't have much power to bring 😂

That’s the beauty of this video, it leaves all that extra crap out, and plainly demonstrates effectively how to perform the desired movement

Glad to hear 👊

I think that can be a great cue to follow to keep yourself in good position 👍

As with most everything form related, there will be nuance with individuals because we're all a little different. I use this to teach people what the correct position feels like- at first it's a conscious movement to the power pocket and then more or less automatic as the disc snaps out of it. Some people really click with this method, other people click with the idea of keeping your upper arm away from your body at a 90+° angle the whole throw. But eventually whichever method you go with, you'll build muscle memory and it will all move to a subconscious motion as you focus instead on angle, release line, etc

I agree that it doesn't make sense haha, but yes you should be keeping your hand closed. I try to keep a very firm grip, particularly with my thumb and index finger (knuckle), and the disc just comes out at the hit point. You might shank a few as you transition to that grip, but you'll notice an immediate increase in power transfer to the disc

Ah, yeah- he's a great example, good call

I've found a much more common problem than pulling early is rounding caused by not pulling early enough. I did *feel* like I was pulling early when I first started doing this, but then upon reviewing my form I saw that it actually gets me to a much better position than before

@@ArmoryDiscGolf by that do you mean pulling to the pec or pulling/ripping the disc?

@@nordicdiscgolferatrumble9430 yeah I'm talking about pulling to the pec

@@ArmoryDiscGolf gotcha

Excited to hear how it goes 👊

that's correct. This creates the "form" snap and often also the "sound" snap too. Which is a fun bonus haha

Thank you, everyone thinks the sound means something and it doesn't. Grip a disc too hard and you'll get that sound, it's not an indicator of anything.

@@ArmoryDiscGolf well, it isn't as much a bonus as generally a slight disadvantage

@@0NicoLoco0 the disc is supposed to rip out of your hand which is what makes that sound. this imparts more spin on the disc.

The snap he's referring to here isn't the audible snap but the snap out of your hand. If it was audible I would be throwing bombs! 😆

yeah I wouldn't worry too much about the audible sound of snap, I'm referring to the acceleration of the disc out of the hand. Grip is tricky because everyone's hands are a bit different. A lot of great info out there on different grips, though

I feel like I'm being petitioned🤔😂

Blue is better ;)

With all due respect, I'm going to let adults be adults and decide for themselves if they're ready to throw a disc. This is teaching proper form and should lead to less injuries than improper form. I see what you're saying but it's not feasible for me to give disclaimers/warmup routines/workouts/etc in each video, but I DO plan on doing a video about disc golf training/workouts at some point in the future. I think it's a huge area of the game that is largely overlooked

Because all of that is a given in literally any sport.

Thank you, I appreciate that! 👊

More like a pointless comment, no one cares about.

This video absolutely does make sense.

@DiscBelief it obviously bothers you or you wouldn't have commented with your useless comment, I think your mad cuz you still only throw 300 feet lmao.

@@janne932 OH 👍

This is incorrect. Snap is NOT just the sound, though many people do get a snapping sound as the disc releases. Snap is the rapid acceleration of the disc as it exits the hand, and getting to a deep pocket does create this. (Also often creates the "snap" sound) Originally I had an entire section describing the physics of all this, but cut it because the point of this video isn't to dissect what the physics of snap is, but rather to help people achieve it. Trying to keep these brief so I can't cover everything in one video

The same word can have 2 different definitions. It doesn't take much effort to realize that he's not talking about the audible snap, Gannon's slo-mo doesn't have sound makes that evident.

Look at his name, he's just trying to troll bc his life is boring and he gets some sort of pleasure out of dissing people for no reason. Or just a hater...either way, no life.

you probably believe in the christian god and think that mosses actually parted the sea@@DiscBelief or that im a troll, ether way, NO LIFE.

no you are incorrect, you are comparing open wrist throw to deep pocket, which have nothing in common, you can throw a shot shallow or deep pocket and if your wrist is cocked open, its gonna suck. @@ArmoryDiscGolf
