perfect missed opportunity to title this "Scoober-Do's and Don'ts" 🤣

The fact that we've seen Paul sizing up scoober lines in Foundation's latest video tells me that this shot just might be sticking around

I truly believe Brodie is helping to evolve the sport. His high disc IQ (from ultimate) not only makes up for the lack of experience in disc golf but actually brings an interesting perspective into the game. Love what you've been doing bro.

Can't wait to see Paul throw a scoober putt in a competition, that'll be when you know you've left your mark on the sport!

I am waiting for... “oh Brodie is in a rough spot”. “Doesn’t have an opening”. Oh Snap!! Brodie with a Chicken Wing throw!!!!!! He makes it!!!!!!!!

This brings me right back to the old Brodie ultimate tutorials which got me started in ultimate. Now I play ultimate at college level and just started playing disc golf in pro division

This dude been throwing discs for a couple of months and already teaching us how to play :D What a legend

The same dudes screaming "Brodie is bad for disc golf!" are the same dudes practicing scoobers on their practice baskets during quarantine right now.

Jokes aside, this is a fantastic tutorial! I'm definitely going to use this shot! Thanks, Brodie!

I tried this just now inside the house, I almost broke the window

Your tutorials are great I am a total newbie to DG I am 64 and have been throwing frisbees since I was 12 yrs old Your style and method of teaching works for me, so the more fundamentals of the game you teach the better for me Keep up the great tutorial videos!!!

This is by far the most relevant thing you've brought to the table. I tried it out after seeing you do it and it's actually a really practical shot to play.

#scoobersquad the more tools in the tool belt, the better! Looking forward to whipping this out!

Among your other talents, you're a natural teacher. Clear, concise and easy to relate. Thanks. Kudos to your cinematographer.

Wow, I guess this shot came around after my ultimate playing days. I've been playing disc golf for a LONG TIME...when we used to call it "object golf" using a Frisbee (1980)...and I've never really gotten comfortable with the thumber or tomahawk, so I'm going to have to give this a try. Taking my portable basket to the back yard now. (Corona isolation....blah~!!) Anyway, my son and I have been watching you for quite a while now (he intro'd me to your videos) and I wondered if you were going to give disc golf a go. Glad to see that you have, although I'm totally jealous that you're starting out and playing with McBeth and company~!! Keep it coming~!

This is really interesting because it's a throw that personifies the bridge between ultimate and DG, in the same way that Brodie has now come to personify that link. It's a concrete example of how a skill from ultimate can be super useful in a DG setting and it's been proven. I'm definitely going to be utilizing the scoober in situations like Brodie's describing and also have it as a tool for off-the fairway situations that call for creative scrambling.

I loved the reasons and mental percentages you gave for when you like to throw the scoob, makes total sense and is definitely something I going to try to work into my game.

It’s crazy because I remember watching your how to scoober video back in the day. It got me hooked on throwing frisbees. Now I just started disc golf and instantly come here to find you are a disc golfer now lol. You literally have the best tutorials

Awesome video, been really enjoying all your disc golf content lately! Keep up the good work!

Brodie! I love throwing the scooter in ultimate but I never thought about implementing it into my disc golf game! Thanks for the tutorial! It was great!!

Yesterday we witnessed (in tournament) why this shot will stick around, and why brodie smith will be, and is one of the most versatile disc golfers to date. Keep it up and good luck on the tournament brodie.

So I watched this video while at work yesterday, worked ALL day, then woke up and tried this in my back yard. Game. Changer. Thank you so much Brodie!! Very helpful to have this in the arsenal. Love and appreciate your vids!

Love these instructional videos! You are growing the game at a HUGE rate right now, Brodie.

More tutorials... You do a great job of explaining the shot, and most particularly you do a top notch job of explaining when and where to use the shot. Thanks Brodie!!😊

Brodie, 6 month player, saw this video about 2 weeks ago. I never got a chance to practice it though. I played a mini run by a local group in burleson, and found myself in an untenable position on the #8 hole, in the middle of a bush, at about 25 feet, needing to save par. I remembered this video and said what the heck, only shot I have, and first time I ever tried it, hit the putt. Thank you for expanding my thought process when facing these situations!!

I started watching probably around 7 years ago. You helped develop a love for ultimate for me, I switched to disc golf a few months before you moved the channel over, and I’ve got to admit this is my favorite content you’ve ever made. (I know it’s not everyone’s favorite but I LOVE it)

Awesome tutorial Brodie! Thank you for actually showing scenarios to use the shot. Will practice this tomorrow.

Wow, this just might be the tool I need to improve my approaches, definetly gonna give it a try next time I practice or play.

Just wanted to say I’m excited for you being competitive in disc golf regardless of the experience you have in the sport and with the tons of discs. Been a fan of yours for years and seeing you make videos with Paul, as well as your own, on disc golf seems like a match made in heaven. Super talented in play and commentary. You guys play off each other so well. Love every video. Especially with Ben Askren. Keep it up man!! Love it!

I love it Brodie, been practicing scoober putting today. Love how they stay and roll to the basket.

Thanks for this video. I'm new to disc golf. Most of the courses in my area are highly wooded. This throw helps me out a bunch for getting through the trees. Love your channel. Learning lots.

Awesome tutorial! Thanks for making it!

FINALLY 😎 I have been thinking of this throw so many times, big thanks for this tutorial, i know this is going to improve my game 😃👊

Super helpful tips. Thanks Brodie.

Keep the disc golf content coming! Love it. You and this sport are made for each other. The Scoober is a viable shot with a death putt. Practice mode engaged.

Love the scoober! I learned to do this a few years back. Use it all the time. But thanks to Brody now I know the fundamentals thank you

straight up killing the youtube game during this "off-season". thank you for all you're doing to add to this great sport!

Loved the situational breakdown in addition to the how-to portion. Can't wait to practice it so I've got it when the situation comes up!

Very thorough tutorial. Thanks

Great video. Love the way you explain and talk to people. You seem like a very down to earth person.

Awesome seeing your Ultimate experience and variety of throws being incorporated into disc golf. I firmly believe that many of your throws will start to find success for you, which will help others feel confident in using them. We can't worry about looking weird or unconventional as the most important thing is to improve the sport. The beauty of the Scoober is that it is highly repeatable in stressful situations due to minimal movements.

Thanks for the lesson! Good luck in 2022!

I love that you come in new and put out more content than anyone.

Thanks so much to you both. Exactly what we needed. We love you guys.

Great video brother!

Excellent tutorial! Can't wait to see more tutorials like this in the future.

This tutorial was much more in depth than I expected, it was honestly very helpful! I think this will improve my game, thanks Brodie! Dark horse!

I never knew this throw existed. I’m pretty new to the sport and I can’t wait to practice this throw! I pride myself on my approach shots and I’m looking forward to adding this to my game. Thank you so much for sharing! Shout out to your camera girl capturing the magic.

I thoroughly enjoy your videos! Your are a good personality to push disc golf to a popular place in the US! Thank you sir!

Loved how you walked through different "real game" situations where the Scoober putt would be useful - that was super helpful. Great video Brodie!

Dude your disc golf content is really great, thanks for the videos!

Awesome, can't wait to start incorporating the Scoober into my game! You're the best man, thanks for the great tutorials!!!

I've used the way overhead, almost preflipped "tomahawk" to get me out of trouble for years. In the day we called them scoobers. Keep it up!

Great Video. Like the way you showed that. definitely going to try it out. Thanks!

Bro, I'm an old Ultimate guy who just started Disc Golf in late 2019. I was throwing the ol the Scoober all day on the disc golf course yesterday after every putt. Finally, I had a shot to win on hole 18 but there was a bush/tree between me and the basket (low ceiling) so I could not throw under. Went with the Scoober from about 28' over the tree and nailed it. That Utimate experience pays off! Thanks for sharing!

Love seeing the ultimate skills transitioning into the game-big fan of the scooter!

Please do a rules overview! How to drop, when to drop, common violations and such. All of us newer tournament players could use this!

It would have been very nice to know this for the last 22 years that I've been playing. Well I'm glad to learn this technique and can't wait to try it! Thanks for the video and keep up the great videos.

Really enjoyed the vid man. It’s a shot style I never thought of using. Thanks man

I love that you brought this into disc golf love the sport I will be trying scoobs on my next rounds. With my new get freaky zone

I'm a new subscriber. Enjoying the lessons. Thanks for the tips.

Its an awesome arrow for the quiver & a great video!!!

Only been discgolfing for a minute already making better videos than most of the other pros

Thanks so much I've been practicing this put from your old ultimate tutorial but this makes it easier. I think you've added a new shot to disc golf, never seen any other pro use this shot. I just think it might stay around awhile.

Brodie does very helpful and informative putting videos.

Watched your video yesterday and went to the field to practice the scoober shot. I played a round today and was in a situation of '' This is a Scoober moment". Played the scoober and hit the chains and had a tap-in. Ty so much for this awesome tutorial.

Great content Brodie! Will totally take the time to practice this and start going for the longer death puts!

great video. the scoober feel very natural for me. this vid will help me dial it in to (hopefully) save some strokes.

You’re a natural teacher. Thank you!

I was just in the back yard trying to figure out the scoober. Come inside pull up RU-vid and low and behold Brodie has a new video up explaining the scoober. Sweet!

Sooper dope Mr Smith! New subscriber and I'm implementing this into my game for sure. Thanks!

I understood what your scoober was for the first time I saw you use it. I'm glad you demonstrated it and will give it a shot, but I sure didn't need convincing that it's useful. That was obvious from the start. Not only has your course management gotten better in the last several months, now you're showing the old dogs some new tricks!

Thanks man. I will try this, hopefully this afternoon!

Thanks, Brodie! New to the game and used this yesterday...I still suck but I like the Scoober cause of how it just dies and doesn't roll or skip! God bless!

5:02 Ah yes, the classic doot-doot-doot. Great video man, keep em coming!

Keep it up Brodie! Appreciate the content and insight🤘🏻🥏

Great video Brodie, I've thrown the disc upside down for years using a RHBH throw. It's super useful when needing to slide them under low hanging guardian trees to get to the basket or out of "the rough".

Hi Brodie, I watched you throw an amazing scoober to an elevated basket on hole 14 during round 1 of the 2023 USDGC. Your form and technique looked just like what you teach in this video. Thanks for the helpful tips!

That's awesome. An almost completely new throw that has real utility multiple times a round. Thanks for sharing this, Brodie. My go-to in that 50-foot left-to-right putt situation has been a patent-pending annie putt. It's so cool to suddenly have another, much more controllable, way to do that. And putts on baskets at the top of hills with the scoober look way easier.

That was a decent video. I might go on a limb and say it was your best and most serious video. Which as someone who knows disc golf can appreciate. Thank you Kelsey for the camera work on all the videos,

good info. Thanks for your efforts and fun content.

Thanks Brodie for another great video! Played a round today and had an opportunity to throw a scoober. I came up a little short, but hadn't had a chance to watch this video yet. Now I'm ready to get back out there to try it more!! Great work. Let's sling some discs!!

Great commentary on the Scoober. As you came into that last putting situation, I would really have liked to see you take all 6 of those disks, and throw them, uncut, one after another. I don't expect you to make them all, but it would be a great way to reinforce the same stance, angle of release, wrist action, etc, all in a row. Better yet, throw 6 with Kelsey capturing from behind, then go pick them up, return to the same spot, and throw them with Kelsey getting you from the front. Finally, thanks for keeping the content coming!

Thanks Brodie for this tutorial :) I'm going to use this shot more frequently at woody courses :)

Went out to test the scoober out today, was not disappointed, I noticed a huge improvement in my approaches, and got a few longer putts almost in for a birdie, this throw is definetly one I will keep in my toolkit and keep practicing and improving on. Thousand thanks for the tutorial Brodie. 💙 Broke my personal record on the course I went to on my second round over. Suopelto disc golf park.

appreciate the down to earth mannerisms you have. good teacher.

I’m trying to perfect my Scoober now. thanks very much!!

Brodie, I was finishing up a course yesterday and I didnt really have any sort of viable shot. Then I remembered watching you and Paul use it in a putting video and I totally used it for the first time and made a sweet layup with it. Hope you feel better my guy

Really love this tutorials. You are good at explaining, it's winter where I'm at so no frisbee yet, but I'll try that scoober when snow's melting and wind is calming down :D Appreciate your content Brodie :D

I’m looking forward to Scoober only rounds! Thanks for another great video! 🔴⚪️🥏😷🙏🏻

Roobie, roo, Brodie! I will be adding that to my arsenal. Can't wait to try it out on the course once this Pandemic is over and we can get back on the course. Thanks, for the video. Keep up the good work. Lookin forward to seeing you and the sport grow. God Bless!

Made my first 50ft scooter putt yesterday (after watching this video). Thanks Brodie!

Keep em coming man. I'm enjoying the content since you joined the game

Great video Brodie. Not gonna lie, every time I Scoober, I hear the McGruber voice saying MCSCOOBER!!!!

Awesome explanation!

Really nice tutorial, thank you

Thanks for the tutorial on a shot most of us don't know much about. I would also be really interested to see how you're working on improving your backhand footing - specifically getting your lead foot more parallel when you plant it so your hips get more engaged. I have the same issue and it's a tough one to resolve for me... I know there's some mobility and hip flexibility issues there, and maybe also some subconscious concern about not hurting my right knee while rotating. Anyway. I'd love to see any drills or tips you find on that.

Thanks for the scoober tutorial! I will definitely try if that suits for me. 👍🏻

Newbie here. Watched this video just before a round and needed to use the scoober -I was below the basket sloping terrain in bushes and other side of basket slope down and trees. I didn’t make the basket, BUT it landed flat within inches. Felt great to use this tool successfully to end the round!
