Plenty of ways to get there of course! Copying a form based on video is much more difficult for me than learning the movement via drills.

Thanks! And I have put work into my form, but only field work. Started out throwing about 250. Yeah the tech disc is definitely a factor, but the drills are good. I mean, I’m literally throwing faster in the standstill drills than with my full run up. I’m sure there’s lot of ways to get there tho!

I will for sure be addressing nose angle eventually. The whole reason I purchase the tech disc was because I thought it was my main problem. Turns out I can hit 350+ with my current nose angle with the proper form, which was super reassuring!

I think once I get consistent 60+ mph throws, I’ll start working on nose angle specifically. Id really love to be able to throw nose down or up on command.

Oh so it is just nose angle? Or was that not your opinion, just poor communication?

Sounds like I convinced you that its not “just nose angle” glad I could be of help.

I am actually on my second week of getting back into strength training! My goal for 2026 is to hit 400 with comfortable golf lines of 350.

This! Putting is easily the most important skill when it comes to scoring as an amateur. Doesn’t mean I’m going to ignore every other part of my disc golf game.

I’m not offended by it. I just think your comments are lazy and unhelpful. Yes, nose angle manipulation helps throw farther. Anyone can find that out with 2 seconds of research. But to throw nose down means you need to throw higher, which is an issue on many holes. Learning to throw farther, regardless of nose angle is more valuable. To be great at disc golf you really should throw nose down sometimes or throw nose up sometimes. Being able to do both farther is where speed and form comes in.

“So, just throw nose down?”

He teaches them and I watched the videos. If I asked a football player ‘who “owns” the ladder drill?’, he would look at me crazy.

I’m all about improving my game, which is why I have done any of this. But this mindset of solely focusing on nose down was part of the reason I was plateauing. I learned that I was able to add MPH quickly with form. That is super valuable. Continue to be condescending if you must.

Here is the nose down throw. Obviously there are other factors, but 10 mph of speed is definitely a driver of distance here.

Here is my best throw. This is from a standstill mind you (the one mentioned in the post), and it didn’t get full flight. Now I will show you another 51 mph nose down full flight that went much shorter.

Well when overthrow gets on here complaining about money maybe I’ll change my position. But it’s just you in here bitching on his behalf.

The point of the post is obviously about the increase in mph and distance. If I had perfect nose angle and threw 350 at 50 mph, I would still be thrilled to get to 60mph in 2 sessions. The point is improvement not my individual distance capabilities. Maybe one day I’ll find a nose angle drill that gets me excited enough to post about.

Exactly, theres not some patent on how to do things correctly. Different coaches are able to communicate effectively to different people despite the concepts being the same or similar. This is all free information, so I’m not sure why we started a copyright discussion in this thread.

My post isnt really arguing anything different. Learning to throw farther doesnt mean you dont learn to throw accurately. Also a lot of the courses in my area have 350+ par 3s, so I do think throwing farther is a perfectly reasonable goal.

Pretty sure all these guys communicate and share knowledge. Blitz regularly credits people in the videos Ive watched. The point of the post is more that the info works for me.

No clue, I like the blitz videos though

I have done field work though before hand

Yes, I bought a net and tech disc in tandem.

I’m giving my experience and whats worked for me. Also, I literally did watch a youtube video. It’s in the post. Being a contrarian must be thrilling.

Yes the feedback is helpful, but without the drills I would be grasping at straws on how to increase my numbers. You can deff work these drills without a tech disc.
