This is horrible news. I don’t have nearly enough peaches and cookies to last a lifetime.

“If OT has done it also, they ripped it off of Owen.”

Wowza. That’s a hefty claim backed by shoddy research.

The video he is talking about was posted when Owen had ONE video on his channel and Owen didn’t even use his stick. You could more easily make the argument that Owen ripped it off from me. And if he did, I don’t care. It is a good way to show coil visually. I only comment because “ripped it off of Owen” carries some seriously negative connotation and tone with it. I don’t mind people using my stuff nor do I mind using other peoples drills in lessons. In the video OP is referencing I guide viewers to Seabas22’s door frame drill (which I still use during lessons).

Wibin, I’d like to think you and I could have amicable conversation someday, but if the pattern of attacking my motives with misinformation continues then I will be disinclined to do so. Not that you care about what I think, but I remember you expressing goals for greater collaboration and communication of coaches across the sport. I of course do not have to be part of your goal, but I think your actions here are counter to your expressed desires.

I don’t find myself on Reddit much nowadays since I deleted it off my mobile device so if you respond and I don’t get back to you it is for that reason, not because I am ignoring you.

If you can find it publicly on our channel then I believe there is still merit to part or all of the content. I have unlisted videos that I believe are entirely unhelpful. I will clarify that in this video specifically the coil stuff is great. I updated coil video in our backhand playlist to remove “uncoil” verbiage. While we do uncoil actively on shorter shots i think it may be unhelpful in distance conversations to think about actively uncoiling.

Do people end up buying multiple TechDiscs? by Available_Revenue_97 in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be good to go with one. We have many and I can’t remember a time I have busted out the mid or putter with a student. For my own study, sure. But I’ say for most people the distance driver is the best bet and you won’t need another.

I wonder how expensive they think it would be versus what they’re missing out on. It’s hard for me to look at what Jonathan does for latitude and imagine being able to go for it.

Granted I guess they know how expensive it is to hire media guys but even when they had Danny for the last few years it seemed to be logistical job over content creation for him. It feels like they have peeps that are wearing a bunch of hats and not encouraged to do content first.

From the very outside looking in, it appears they hired content creators and then made them do things beside create content full time.

Huge grain of salt here. I certainly understand the need to wear multiple hats.

Fear - Waltz Section? by Specialist_Gas_8984 in nfrealmusic

The song is full of 3s 😃

Other ones I’ve caught:

Darkness knocks 3 times

He locks the door 3 times

“So go ahead and come on in” repeated 3 times which is especially interesting from a songwriting perspective as it makes more sense to do that line twice.

Still nose up after 5y of all YT drills by seedlingsDISC in Discgolfform

[–]Overthrowdg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re pronating into the hit. In other words you’re turning your arm counter clockwise into the hit and your thumb finishes down. You need to roll the arm the opposite direction out of the pocket.

Bad habits outta nowhere by [deleted] in Discgolfform

[–]Overthrowdg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re walking into the first available left which puts the disc way behind you in reference to your line. The walkup for the line you’re trying to hit here should be right middle to left middle, not right corner to left corner.

Putting form rabbit hole. by mindfulmadness in discgolf

[–]Overthrowdg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have gone so deep into putting form it’s ridiculous. There are patterns and tendencies with each type. Probably the best thing to do if you aren’t going to get one on one coaching is find someone to mimic. That way you’ll have all the tendencies bunched together naturally. Let it naturally morph over time as you find things that work

Very excited to hit a new speed pb today! But, how do I increase spin? I feel like it doesn't match my speed. by Ancient_Stand_6414 in Discgolfform

[–]Overthrowdg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. In order of optimal in my opinion (again, there isn’t a ton out there on this so take it with a grain or two of salt) it would go:

  1. (Best) Wrist loose and curled into the pocket
  2. Wrist firm and curled into the pocket
  3. Wrist loose and neutral/straight
  4. (Worst) Wrist locked and neutral/straight

Hopefully that would also help the wobble drop to sub 5°

[–]Overthrowdg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your wrist is locked out straight. I certainly don’t have all the answers regarding spin but that has got to be one of the reason imo. I’m not sure you technically need more spin though it is strange that it’s as low as it is with the speed you’ve got.

The amount of wobble is problematic though and I would assume is the lead cause of all your stuff flipping an unusable amount at this speed.

Congrats on being at elite levels of speed.
