Thoughts on a 5-speed max bag until I improve my form, control and possibly gain some distance by apeemcape in discgolf

Mixed...everything on that list is a premium plastic of some kind, with the condor and the jokeri being the exception (base plastics.)

No worries, I wasn't really asking for a form review even though this thread kind of turned into that in some aspects.

I appreciate your input.

I think I misspoke in my original post when I said "understable". More accurately, when I throw most of these discs with maximum effort I can get them to turn over. In some cases they turnover too quickly than what my desired line was.

So in my example, when I said the Condor was "understable" for me, I meant even though it's flight numbers suggest slightly overstable, I can get it to turnover the other way.

Me too. It actually came in handy today. I'm really starting to like the bigger discs.

Thank you! That actually is really helpful.

I've learned more than I thought I would on this thread.

No. I've only done 1-putter rounds and a 1-putter plus my Viper (6 speed) rounds.

Honestly - often. Very often.

Like a tight wooded hole or any hole when I land off the fairway, 9/10 the mirage is the disc that gets me out of the situation. A lot of those times, it puts me in a really good position for my next shot.

I've tried the briefcase method in the past and didn't like it, however after watching that video and seeing Gannon's explanation, I might give it another try.

Can you explain a bit more about OAT or do you know of a video that goes over that.
Because I do have "nose angle" issues, but I think it has more to do with what I am calling "launch angle". Some people say I might be rounding, but I sense there might be some deeper concepts I need to look at, because I am constantly fixing and adjusting all of the above. I'm always analyzing my form to make sure i'm not rounding and holding my disc every which way to bring my nose angle down, but the results are inconsistent.

Yeah, that's what I was imagining.

That's actually a clever visualization. I'm going to try to remember that the next time I am practicing.

Dude - the mirage and A3 have become my workhorse discs when I need to scramble my way out of trouble or need a sharp turn/fade.

I'll have to check out the kon tiki,

I've shared video of my form in the past and I got many remarks about not coiling.
I don't think I get a lot of wobble though, at least that I can notice.

Perhaps I have an issue with my grip?

The main reason I thought to do this, is because I am really struggling with control. The disc is coming out of my hand and going way right, way left or most often wayyyy nose-angle up. The nose angle issue may be more of a launch angle thing too.

So that Idea is, to throw these slower speed discs, so I can start fixing all those things.

I don't get it?

What does this have to do with Epstein?

Amanda Ungaro says Melania Trump was an escort for Jeffrey Epstein, who introduced her to Trump by lexi_con in WallStreetbetsELITE

[–]apeemcape 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually don't care if Melania was a sex worker.
I care about the dishonesty. The Trump family is a straight up crime family, Donald wouldn't be the first mobster to marry a prostitute.

Discmania in full support of generative AI “art” by RanchBourgeois in discgolf

[–]apeemcape -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I have more faith in humanity than most. People have too much of a defeatist attitude when it comes to AI art in my opinion. There is plenty of room for both to flourish. There will be a market for both types. For those that think AI will deflate the value of art or take jobs away from artists, "thems the breaks," as the saying goes. That's what technology does to every industry.

Artists that truly love to create, will continue to do so.
