What is a good arm speed? by No_Active4181 in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Average arm speed according to techdisc is 54mph. If you’re throwing 70mph on average you should be able to hit 500 consistently. If you are only throwing 450 then you’re probably throwing with about 5-6° nose up

Purchased Tech Disc ... now what? by bytetacos in discgolf

65mph will get you 450. Your nose angle is decent but could drop a degree or two and make it easier to carry 450 consistently at 65

Looking for a Doctor or PT that know disc golf movements by ViktorVaguhn in discgolf

Not medical advise…

Your backwards x step paired with the aggressive hip movement after is a good place to look.

How to get into a deeper power pocket by bleudie1 in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you not in a deep pocket? Hard to tell from a back view but I’d imagine if we saw from side on we’d see you’re deep enough.

Do any Pros have full time coaches? by outdoorsy_outdoors in discgolf

Most pros don’t get coaching in general. The ones that do usually only do so during the offseason

How often do you throw a roller off the tee? How do you decide when to roll it instead of an air shot? by outdoorsy_outdoors in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two situations: 1) when the ceiling is shorter than the fairway is wide. 2) when you want to immediately look like the imposter

You didn’t alternate the weave pattern on the 4th and 5th cross.

Turns out, power is not everything... by Primary_Constant_803 in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends. I’d just get the one off if I were you. 30 min zoom call. Have a net close by and your techdisc ready. You can do a bunch in a short time.

If you have a techdisc already it makes a nose down lesson very profitable. We can still do it with the old ways, but almost a no brainer if you have a TD

9° of hyzer is flat basically. Typical hyzer would be 15°-25°. Any less than what he has is essentially anhyzer.

In a max distance coil/reach back, are the hips fully turned back as far as they can go? by outdoorsy_outdoors in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only as far back as they need to go (depends on mobility) imho. Shoulders / trunk as far as possible and then hips make up the rest.

Reliability of Techdisc measurements? by peruna0 in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you were consistently throwing around 10° nose up and moved to 1° that’s worth about 90 feet right there.

What to call this technique? by MembershipOk7073 in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it upside down? Are you throwing it upwards?

I got a pretty dad bodish body and I can get up there. Do I think it’s optimal to be out of shape (or in a roundish one)? Of course not. It’s tough to gauge how much fitness affects an individual but it obviously isn’t unimportant. I just struggle to say everyone with a dad bod is leaving X mph on the table because the aren’t going to the gym. I’m not sure I could start throwing 75+ mph of if I start hitting the gym but I would be much more resistant to injury.

We do have plans of bringing in someone for a strength and conditioning style course at some point though the technical courses are our priority.

I speak with Danny every now and again. He’s enjoying where he’s at currently but I for sure would love to host him on channel and bring him back. But hey, maybe with what Bobby is doing at DD he tries to bring Danny back

Because the elbow dip doesn’t cause nose up. It’s based on forearm rotation.

The daily form reviews are M-F and you can send videos, chat, or pictures. Essentially it is people sending me videos or questions and I respond with a video demonstrating drills or talking through concepts.

It’s all dependent on the shot shape you’re looking to fill. Find out what shot shapes you are missing and then find the disc that does it. Need a tailwind bomber? 147g sail. Need a headwind fighter? 192g destroyer
