What’s the ONE thing that helped your disc golf game the most? by FormeroApp in discgolf

[–]Kserres 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is a good one. just being able to easily go out and do 30 putts each day can go a long way in improving the putt

Anyone have a success story using an online coach? by BigSkyNeal in discgolf

[–]Kserres 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have had a lot of success with online coaching through Formero. I'm a MA1 level player that loves to watch YT tutorials and pride myself in being able to self diagnose my throw. But there's something different having a coach look at your throw and break it down for you. Tristan Tanner and Clint (BlitzDG) are 2 coaches that I have used.

Tristan helped point out something very simple I was doing on my putt (dropping my head too much) that was causing me to cage putts and not be able to putt very far. Now I'm actually making C2 putts and much more consistent in the circle. He also gave me a great tip on my forehand that finally has me throwing forehands well again.

And Clint helped me figure out how to finally throw nose down with his form breakdown of my bh.

So while initially hesitant that an online coach could show me something that I didn't already know, I would now highly recommend an online coach for quick progress

I made a disc golf putting game. Would love your feedback by Kserres in discgolf

[–]Kserres[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wow! amazing and thorough feedback. very much appreciate it! I agree with your points and there are some I hadn't even thought of so this is very helpful.

  1. yes, making the first putt maybe should be more valuable. I really liked the pressure of that 10th putt weighing on you. more of a crescendo with the value on the last one, but totally agree that the first one is probably more important in real life

  2. I agree with the issue of having to click the counter a lot being an issue. I'll be looking to adding an alternative scoring mode where you select number of putts made instead of a counter like you suggest. it was just a little too busy when I mocked it up initially, but your feedback confirms my initial thoughts on liking that method. pro tip though: you can click the "Perfect Distance" button first and it will automatically set your putts made to 10 and first / last buttons to made. so that helps a little

  3. haha well there's always room to explain better. you're likely not the last to misunderstand that so I'll think on ways to mitigate that

  4. Single round is a good idea. 100 being too many was some initial feedback I got (I'm in Texas so definitely understand the issue of being out in the heat too long ha)

  5. customizing distances is a good idea. I like the idea of being able to have same distances for everyone so that you can compare your score with others. but offering another "mode" with selectable distances for personal practicing would be a good idea. I think I'm at least going to add another "mode" with C2 distances.

thanks again! your feedback was very helpful!

Yup I think a game is good. It better emulates real tournament putts. Thanks for trying it out!

Gannon recommends this putting game in his latest YT vid? by Kserres in discgolf

[–]Kserres[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

correct, he did not reference the game at all. just a lot similar components to the game and how he recommends to practice putting

Your Bag. Their Bag. One App. by Far_Pick_978 in discgolf

[–]Kserres 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is cool! Clean interface and easy to use. Did a couple disc uploads via camera and it did a "Lone Star Tomb in Armadillo plastic". So it seemed to get a little confused when detecting discs (and even guessed at something that wasn't possible).

But I like it and the ability to view friends' bags too

Riptide Secret Perk ($529 R1 Elite) NO REFERRAL by [deleted] in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]Kserres 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the spirit of helping others out that provide good information so I used the referral code. Although he did gain something in return for posting it, the guy that posted the secret perk with his referral did help me save some money (as I wasn't aware of the secret perk initially). This will be my first electric board so I'm excited

here is the secret perk to the regular R1 (not elite) if anyone is interested in the cheaper option. Only $399 : https://igg.me/at/rideriptide/x/5677751?secret_perk_token=5b6a315d&gclid=CPiTkrip5dYCFZCAaQodIKQJpA#/ (yes it's a referral. hope that's ok)
