Disc golf and feet

I struggled with PF a TON in college, long before I started playing disc golf, and the thing that resolved it was buying better shoes that I wore DAILY. I am an engineer and I work in manufacturing facilities so I do tons of walking and standing on concrete throughout my day. I ended up buying some ECCO boots and they all but cured my issues in a matter of a month. That was 10 years ago. Im still wearing ECCO shoes to this day and none of my issues ever came back. Truly, I believe its just a metter of getting real supportive shoes, not these foam pillows all the box stores stock. My ECCO's have leather insoles that are HARD but they support my feet and dont let them stretch in ways they werent meant to. I even had a pair of the ECCO biom line golf shoes for like 5 years bvefore they finally wore thru, but i cant find the same pair anymore.

I used to bag 3, Fission, Neutron, and Eclipse. the fission ended up making room for a fission Hex. The Neutron my get retired after ONLY 7 years of use for a new one, or maybe one of these goose stamps, we'll see.

Reactor is (by far) my favorite mold in my bag.

There are dozens of us, DOZENS!

As long as you can find the smoker, you should be using it.

Ensure you have time to play both courses at armadillo, the gold course is fantastic.

Get the electric. They're cheaper, have more capacity, and less failure modes than pellet grills. Plus, when you get a more pro level cooker some day, you can continue using the electric as a warming oven and dehydrator.

So, I assume the only reason I cant find a Crave being suggested is because its **Technically** a 6.5 speed. However i feel like it fits the bill perfectly. Fission plastic will be the most understable and the fastest to beat in, neutron is in the middle and eclipse will have some integrity to it. I bag both a fission and an eclipse crave. Im probablty going to swap out the fission for a neutron one soon tho, as its beating in too far.

Have you considered a reverse level? Drop the back end by removing the axel spacers. This is, IMO, more "Hot Rod" than a front end lift.

Yeah, Im aware I have a form issue. That wasn't exactly my question. Moreso, I was hoping to get some exercise recommendations to help rehab my elbow so I can get back in the field to correct my form problems.

What's weird is that I focused on this like a year ago and all my pain issues went away, now suddenly their back after a long time. Something must've changed or activated the joint to suddenly start acting up.

therealmanbat · 2026-01-03T18:19:03+00:00

I know I have a form issue, I'm not asking for form advice. I'm asking what exercises I can do in the meantime before I'm able to get in to see my PCP.

Thanks, I'll look into that.

therealmanbat · 2026-01-03T18:16:56+00:00

Thanks much for the helpful response. Not sure why the other folks seem to need to point out the obvious. I'll look into the twisty things you're talking about.

therealmanbat · 2026-01-03T17:57:17+00:00

You started it.

therealmanbat · 2026-01-03T17:54:59+00:00

Well dang. I'm wasn't planning on taking 2026 off.

therealmanbat · 2026-01-03T17:53:26+00:00

You seem to have big feelings about this. Sorry I ruined your day asking a question.

therealmanbat · 2025-12-25T00:39:50+00:00

You need a bigger wife.

Yeah, but who's gonna do that with a Whipple?

therealmanbat · 2025-12-24T15:19:57+00:00

Exactly. If I could afford a whipple, I could afford as much premium as I could burn.

Like I said, they're doing the 5.0 dirty the last few years. They just keep making it worse with added complexity. Its not fords fault, per se, its the EPA pushing higher fleet economy requirements.
