I've been playing on and off for 40 years. Last year I picked up a Hawkeye (7/5/-1/1) and it changed my whole game. If you can throw 220-270 feet straight, you can probably play to par on almost any course.

I was out of town and had some free time, so I bought a champion Roc3 and played a round with just that 1 disc. It was one of the best things I’ve done. What a great challenge. That Roc3 is now part of my bag.

I've been spending this year playing only 5 speed and less. It's been amazing for my game and mostly for my form. I'm getting more distance now. I'm actually looking forward to the year ending so I can add my 6+ speed discs back in my bag and see how I do.

Calvin Peete learned his golf swing when the only club he had was a 7 iron. He was arguably the most accurate in the game in terms of fairways and green hit in regulation. I would say that the 5, 6, and 7 irons occupy the highest band of utility among all golf clubs available. Any one of those work for a "one club" round. A choked down 5 iron is great for learning chip shots.

Another reason golfers love a 7 iron is because it's versatile. You can hit punch shots with it, chip with it, it has enough loft to help you feel comfortable half swinging it at 120yds but you can also go full at 170 or so.

@BillFromAZ Жыл бұрын

The 7 iron is so versable. You can do so much with it by adjusting the loft. Adjust your grip a bit and the club becomes delofted and hits far. Adjust it the other way and you get more loft. But the main thing about the 7 iron is where it fits in your stance. When you take your stance, the clubs position change from Driver positioned at the lead foot, to the wedges being positioned at the back foot. That means the 7 iron is positioned in the middle of the stance....the easiest place to get lined up.

For me a Buzzz is my absolute Go To "7 Iron" disc. I use a Buzzz more than anything else. I did just pick up a Halo Roc3 and started including that in my bag, trying it as my practice shot after throwing the Buzzz, see what it does for me.

@christopherwelch5568 11 ай бұрын

Hey Robbie- I used to play golf and a 7 iron is a good club for approach shots and Par 3s from the tee box. It's a great utility club because of the loft and distance, very versatile. Love the channel and thanks for explaining disc golf in simple terms. You'd make a great coach.

For those deceiving up hill shots, you should use the range finder to tell us vertical gain, or the slope of the hole if you can remember to. More context is always helpful to tell the story

@noseaksno4256 11 ай бұрын

I love Robbie. great channel! super knowledgeable! can your explain the term "beat in" and what that does to a disc?

@BrianBloom 10 ай бұрын

"beat in" means the accumulation of dings, scuffs, and scratches on a disc from hitting chains, trees, pavement, etc. These imperfections reduce the aerodynamic smoothness of a disc, which causes a disc to become slowly more understable with age and use. For some (overstable) disks this actually makes them fly a bit straighter. For disks that are already neutral or understable this makes them flippier and better suited for hyzerflips.

@noseaksno4256 10 ай бұрын

3 thoughts, how long does a soft plastic putter last?and if you only hit chains? How many throws does it take to achieve "broken in"? I know plastics matter and aggressiveness of breaking in, but lets say for theory how many trees do I hit off the tee before a low grade plastic is considered broken in?

If I had to pick a versatile mid to play the whole round with, I be stuck between 3 discs. It would have to be my dx roc, big z buzzz, or opto claymore for me. I had to see what all the hype was surrounding the roc, and it really surprised me. Brand new it flies very stable, be can be easily shaped. My buzzz is straight to slightly over stable, and the claymore is straight to slightly under stable. I can get them all to move around in flight, so it makes me wonder which one I’d have the most success with.

while I am in love with my roc3 I'm surprised no one decided to play the buzz for how popular it is. I do guess because its kind of basic its not as fun to make big plays but still very reliable.

I guess what I'm surprised about is how fast people in disc golf expect results. I mean imagine picking up a baseball for the first time, and one year later expecting to be say as good as the average first string highschool varsity player? Like throwing 300-350' consistently with reasonable accuracy is actually a lot better than I think the internet makes it seem. Hunter and Trevor are good examples of big distance is helpful, but largely it's so they can more precisely throw 350-400'.
