I never thought i'd be binging videos about disc golf... but the videos have such a lovely vibe, and keeps me chuckling. Great entertainment, thank you :)
I am ecstatic to now use mittens and tell everyone its because "my fingers are in survival mode and can help each other out in there". I've always loved mittens, but now my response will be pure science based. Best production in disc golf, keep on killing it Johnathan, Johannes, and Tomas (Thomas with an umlaut somewhere?).
Wholesome content, I just feel better after watching these videos and I am no slouch at winter disc or disc golf in general (Wisconsinite who's been playing for 20 years). Thank you.
@@josephmichels6347 I agree. I never even thought about putting ribbons all the deaths but it's a great idea. Ever-so-slightly looking forward to Winter a little more now.
The ribbon idea is genius. Like seriously, it's a game changer. And if I might be so bold to offer another tip: Don't throw off the tee pad if there is snow on it. If you walk all over a concrete pad and pack down the snow, it's likely to turn icy and near impossible to clean later.
I gotta say, the ribbon trick is a real disc saver on fresh powder! It saved at least 3 of my discs from getting lost! It didn't matter how bright my discs were when they get buried in a foot of snow.
Once again, absolutely loved this video! Probably the most genuine, down to earth disc golf content around these days and always well edited too, which helps!
Great video, always iss the best weather for some disc golf! When taping LED's or ribboms, make sure you do it to a dry and clean disc indoors. If you do it on the course, it'll last you about 3 throws, and the disc will sweat the tape off.
I like that you play throughout the year. My friends and I have been playing in Baltimore's Druid Hill Park Disc Golf Course year round, as long as it isn't raining. A little snow and ice on the ground just adds to the surprises.
Hi guys, just moved back to Canada from living in Sweden for 7 years. It's so nice hearing the Swedish accent again and seeing such down to earth dudes. These tips are great in both of my "home" countries!
@@Latitude64 Well, it's certainly no Swedish Chef (as people assume it sounds like) but I can't replicate it for the life of me! Also, you forgot one tip: There isn't OB in the winter (be nice to yourself because the weather certainly won't be. Unless of course you physically cannot play your lie!).
I started playing about the same time as Jonathan and have enjoyed all of these videos immensely. Love watching the progress and the humor involved in learning a new sport! Keep it up!!!!
@@Latitude64 Driving well the other day but couldn't finish a putt, this morning could not get off the tee box but had some clutch par saves putts. You know, hit or miss haha.
Now this is the content the world needs right now. I love your guys work and instructions. I am just beginning the journey of disc golf with my three boys and this has made us fans for life of your team and Latitude 64. Thank you, Jonathan, Johannes and Tomas. God bless and good health.
You guys are truly an inspiration for the sport. Keeping up the personal improvement but you guys also always nail it on the friendly/casual vibe. Keep it up guys.
A comment on this series in general: I’m new to the sport and am now rewatching this series after having played a couple awful rounds and taken many practice throws.I find that I’m now able to better understand and apply the information. Hats off to Jonathan and Latitude 64 for an entertaining and useful series of videos. Thanks so very much! Keep them coming, please!
Jonathon, it just hit me----- something that is important about this series of videos following the journey of a complete newbie's exploration of the game. Its that your experiences in learning the game are entirely captured for your audience on video. It wouldn't be near as entertaining and authentic otherwise. What I mean is that this winter episode is your second round ever----and we all saw your first round----and if you had been like playing round after round off-camera and practicing and improving without us----your audience, the arc of the narrative would suffer. Your audience of beginners following you and practicing the lessons presented to you (and us) by Tomas and others are encouraged and edified by your progress side by side with us. That, I think is a key part of the success of this series. So, well-done indeed!----don't change a thing just keep doing it-----and keep doing all of it on-camera! The spot-on video editing of course is part of the warmth and charm communicated---and super-practical as well: Brevity in action: keeping things moving, focusing on the key moments of success and failure, and making the commentary pithy, witty and fun to listen to and watch.
Those rechargeable hand warmers really work. A group 4 of us all own 1-2 of them each haven't had any issues with any of them. And fleece lined weather resistant pants from Costco 😇
Fantastic stuff... That course is BEAUTIFUL. I don't play much in the winter... but this was inspiring. Might have to go find some bendy holes to play. "I can already tell that this tree doesn't like me" Great stuff.
Play winter disc every week in Maine. I highly recommend "hot hands" or a similar product in your jacket pockets. It's a pain to be putting gloves on and off, I rarely use them. Good towel too. I wear the LLBean Cresta fleece lined hiking pants. Not sure if this helps anyone but thought I'd add it. It gets pretty icy here on the coast so a good pair of spikes to slip on over your boots can be handy, unless you're going to use a tee pad that is cleaned off. The good thing is that in two and a half years of playing my stand still game is actually pretty good lol. Keep up the good work and everybody have fun.
Hey. Yeah I actually looked for those prior to recording the video. But couldn´t find any and didn´t have time to order. Okey, would you say that you use your stand still game more than a run/walk-up?
@@Latitude64 hello, I hope you are having a great day and thanks for the reply. I definitely use my standstill game the majority of the time in the winter. My home course right near my house (Pineland Farms, in Maine) has 2 courses. They close the longer course in the winter for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing and they leave the shorter course open in the winter so it's easier to play that from a standstill too. It has definitely helped out in the summer when I find myself up against a tree or in a spot where I cannot walk or run up. If I could do things differently I would go back in time and only throw standstill when I first learned for a few months. I feel like it makes you concentrate on being smooth, use your core muscles more, reach back farther and have a better angle of release because you don't have to worry about your footwork. Enjoy your gorgeous snowy rounds, it makes us tougher and I will play in any weather now!
@@chuckmcdiscs4586 That makes a lot of sense. Yeah I should probably do that as well. But its so hard not to want to do the run-up. It feels natural in a way. Even tho the discs fly all over the place qus of it, haha :). Hoping you´ll have a great day too!
out of my two distance drivers is the sapphire my favorite. mostly because I bought my second distance driver yesterday and havn't tried it out yet... but it is a discmania mentor
I love your videos. You guys make me laugh rite along with you. I'm new to this sport, but enjoy it very much. I learn a lot from your videos, and have a great time along the way. Beautiful scenery, great tips. Thanks
This was fun to watch, and seems like I may go out in the snow and do this😅. Nothing can stop you guys, hope to see these guys one day and play some with lat64. ❤️. 🙏
Fan va ni grabbar verkar härliga! Sjukt imponerad av eran video production, enkla och informativa, rolig humor och mycket inspirerande tips/tricks. Som nybörjare i discgolf (spelat snart 2 veckor och har super kul!) så blir man helt lyrisk & vill bara ha mer, blir dessutom fett sugen på att dra ut och testa allt som ni går igenom i videorna. Tack för underhållningen, fortsätt så! 🏆
I live in Michigan and these are all great tips. Cannot stress how important a pair of good quality mittens are. Easy to take on and off and keep your hands warm between throws. Really enjoyed this video and subscribed!
Was 70-degrees (21C) here yesterday in Florida, neve see the white stuff. I went out last Sunday AM when it was 42-degrees (6C) and the place was empty - very peaceful round. Seems people here never heard of UnderArmour ColdGear. 😁 Fun video! I'm a beginner myself and I find for some reason the Fuse is easier to throw on Anhyzer than other discs.
Haha man that so different from here. I got some insight into why fuse is so good from Tomas a couple if months ago. Maybe I'll go over it in a video in the future :)
@@Latitude64 When we get to June/July and it's 95 degrees (35C) and 90 - 100% humidity every day here you can tell me about the beautiful weather over there. 😁 I recently took a lesson from JohnE McCray and I was throwing the Fuse a lot, also threw the Royal Trust. He threw his Trust a lot better! 😂
Such a great video! Between the excellent commentary, useful tips, fun music, and inspiring scenery, this is easily one of my favorite disc golf videos. The warm drink scene was a good ending 🤙🏼 Keep up the excellent work Jonathan & Johannes!
Moving to Luleå in 1.5 years for work, and going to Boden shortly for educational purposes. Looking forward to seeing the picturesque swedish winter, being a southerner in Sweden :P
@@Latitude64 due to a shoulder injury, I am primarily a forehand player, or forehand driver anyway. Anything you guys cover relating to forehand I'm always interested in. Also, were those specific grippy gloves you had for throwing in the winter? I am always rewatching your videos on stability (under and over,) and angles (hyzer and anhyzer) to strengthen my own understanding of these concepts.
I see. Was it due to DG that you hurt the shoulder. I sometimes feel in in the shoulder. In a not so pleasant way. No the gloves was just like garden sort of gloves from the hardware store. But they were super grippy. In a good way
Hey Jonathan…..Jim from Florida!!! U need to get out of that snow and come back to Okeeheelee park where it’s 85 and no snow….🥏🥏🥏🥏 😎😎 I played 1 time in the winter when I started to play……threw a rocket forehand into a tree in front of me ….the disc shattered into a thousand pieces….. my brother and the other people in the park could not believe a disc could do that!! Hope to see you again when u come back Fla. where it’s warm 🥏🥏🥏🥏
I absolutely love these videos. Being able to watch you improve and laugh along the way has been very enjoyable and entertaining. Please keep doing what you're doing - we love it! :)
Johnathan, you do an incredible job putting together and editing these videos. I've been watching every video that pops up from you guys for the past 2 weeks. I'm hooked now. Ordered a couple Latitude 64 discs, with more items in my cart for next paycheck! 😅. Great outro music as well. Cheers from the States!
Gold blends in with tall grass/hay that's yellow. Green blends in with pine trees. IMO purple is your best bet. second choices are red or blue. Purple uses your red and blue cones, so it's more visible than just red or blue. But those 3 colors are the least present in the winter landscape.
Great tips, but I don't think I have to worry about using any of them since I live in central Texas and it almost never snows. And even when it does, it is melted away by the next day.
@@SpprtRdclHbts yea that is true, there are places where even this morning there was a little bit on the ground. But the exception only proves the rule. :)
