Wrist Angle For Big Distance | Distance Hack Episode 3 | Disc Golf Lessons 

Sweet..stoked to hear it. Always fun to play around with si ple changes to see how it can affect the flight.

Wrist angle is huge! So important to keep good height control off the tee, and it's a great way to lick that in.

@@samuelaldrich1085 just hit a personal distance record for the first time in the last year today. Threw 423 with a nuke SS on a baby hyzer! Wrist angle for the win!

Cheers friend! My forehand game is almost gone because of an injury, so having good angle control is definitely key. Glad you saw value in the lesson :)

I'll have to take a look into that! Interesting. I appreciate the insight :). I do remember him talking about how he prefers to get his thumb more in the middle of the disc to cause the nose up throw to intentionally happen rather than having, what I like to call, a lazy wrist. Throwing poorly on purpose is always kind of a weird thing to do we've come to find out lol. That being said, getting the nose angle to be flatter in general makes for a better shot (for a standard throw with no weird obstacles) and, especially for newer players, seems to be a useful tip from my experience.

We appreciate you :)

Definitely an interesting topic. MattyO is someone that comes to mind who seems to have a decent amount of curl in his wrist. I think for beginners, there's a ton of value in limiting what CAN move, so for newbies I generally teach a more static wrist (certainly not completely still) in the pull through all the way through the throw. That being said, higher RPMs lead to more distance it seems..and if you can control it well, then it must have benefit!

Stoked to hear your getting value out of the videos! We both love teaching, so we're having a lot of fun putting them together.

I can understand that. Lag is an interesting topic for sure. I've always thought about the concept of building up the potential energy and having it move to kinetic (yay physics!). I know when I'm trying to push the disc out to 450+, it comes down to transferring all the stored energy from loading my hips. I think Drew Gibson is my favorite person to watch for that. He seems to get his hips and lower body involved in a massive way. Crazy to see his short/slow run up result in 500ft bombs lol.

😂😂 some discs definitely smell better than others. This particular plastic is infused with some sort of aromatics though, so it's actually kind of a sweet smell!

Let us know how it goes!
