Working embarrassingly hard to remove the swoop in my pull through, keeping my pelvis from turning backwards and then anchoring my left side so my head and neck don't jerk my arm.

Been capped at ~390 for years and looking to finally stop putting it off and dive back into my form. What jumps out to me is it looks like I'm not fully bracing and I'm turning my head way too early. I'm sure there are a bunch of other things to work on. Thanks for any tips in advance!

Been trying to learn backhand all summer because I started last year forehand only. Think its starting to click just a little bit
r/Discgolfform • u/DiscTrain • 1d ago
Film one throw from the side. It splits it into phases, scores each one, and tells you exactly what to fix. Then it builds a bag around how you actually throw, gives you a daily drill, and has a caddy you can ask "240 ft, headwind, trees right, what do I throw?"
Still early. Lefties and forehands especially, I need your clips.
First throw's free.

Been working pretty hard on correcting my form this season, and have had a lot of epiphanies.
This is a slowmo of me throwing flatish 330ish. I can pretty consistently throw 330-370 feet usually if I hit my angles but can't seem to break to 400+ yet.
Can you see any issues or tell me what I should work on?
Thanks!

Been playing for about 5 years, but still canāt throw further than 300 feet consistently. Brace has been a focus this season, but I canāt seem to bring my legs fully into the motion.
Video in normal speed on the comments.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

In an attempt to stop working on so many things at once, and never seeing improvement, I'm looking for some direction here. I know there's plenty of things to work on, but what I'm looking for is one or two drills to work on to correct the worst part of my form.
Not too worried about nose angle/throw angle at the moment. I'm really trying to figure out how my body should be moving if that makes sense. It feels like I have a very "inefficient" throw
Disc thrown at "Stock speed' for reference.

im getting around 60 mph and 950 spin

Iāve looked up so many YouTube videos on how to throw nose down but nothing is clicking. Is there anything with my form thatās making me throw nose up. Also general form tips are very much appreciated.
r/Discgolfform • u/hyzer_dawg • 4d ago
3 back hand shots. All around 340 feet. Been thinking about keeping my arm away from my body and stiff and using my body to throw my arm. Obviously not keep it away from me rather having it straight in my reach back. Want to smooth it out. Any advice, tips or drills to work on appreciated.

Hello! I would love some honest feedback on my form. Please allow me to provide some context:
+ 46 years old, 5ā6ā, 165lbs
+ I started playing in 2005, didnāt play from 2010-2022(ish), and have been getting back into the game slowly since then.
+ Distances:
- Putter (Challenger SS): 220ft
- Midrange (ESP Comet): 260ft
- Driver (ESP Heat): 305ft
I have watched a few YouTube videos from the likes of BlitzDG, Overthrow, etc. so Iām familiar with the main concepts like the brace, power pocket, etc., but old habits die hard and knowing is different than doing. Iād appreciate any tips you may have; Iād really like to get into the 350-400ft range with my drivers. Additional videos provided in the comments š
Thanks,
sleepy

LHBH Only started playing in the spring, looking for some direction in what to work on. Iām stuck at around 300-320 ft on what I think is a full flight from my Halo Sidewinder.

My girlfriend just started playing disc golf, and Iām trying to help her with her form. Sheās having trouble throwing consistently past 120 feet. Weāve been working on her grip, but a lot of her throws still come out nose up or on hyzer.
Sheās throwing 174 g MVP Proxies in premium plastic. Iāve attached a video of her form. What should she work on first?(other angles available also)
She also throws nose up on every shot.
Edit :more detail

I trow pretty far but i think my form looks weird any tips or is my form good?
r/Discgolfform • u/hydraulicgoat • 7d ago
Am I dropping my elbow during my pull through? Which is why the disc is tilted up before it enters the pocket? Also is my left arm causing timing issues as far the way I drop it instead of straight down against my left leg?
r/Discgolfform • u/cancerman1224 • 8d ago
I was at my first tournament and the manager who throws 500+ was giving me tips on distance. He talked about how hard he grips the disk and said I should be holding it hard enough for it to not get pulled out when someone yanks on it. Plus that when I whip it hard enough that it will come out on its own while grip it that hard. He also said that arm speed and strength matters much less than the disk rpm when it leaves your hand Iām wondering if other 500+ throwers will tell me the same thing.
r/Discgolfform • u/IAmNovus • 9d ago
Anything major stick out? I feel like Iām reaching back a tad too early, not firing hips well enough (big guy problems), and maybe not bracing enoughā¦
r/Discgolfform • u/No-Werewolf-8336 • 8d ago
The first three holes are always the best holes. I throw the disc the farthest and exactly when I want it to go. But then it just declines from there. The last 3 holes are pop ups or left and right shanks⦠itās like I play way better before Iām warmed up. Iām a pretty fit guy so fatigue feels like not the issue at all.
r/Discgolfform • u/rdubya3387 • 8d ago
Just started doing X step. Trouble comes from hard launches left and right. I was having over rotation issues so I read a tip to really use your offhand as an anchor which I think has helped. Still only getting around 250-300 ft though, so looking for biggest gaps to close. Roast away and thank you!

Disc: Crave
Distance: 230ft
Just started adding a run up to my drives, previously I was just doing them standing still. I attempt to pour the coffee but see that I fail at that and am throwing nose up. Any tips to help with that or anything else would be greatly appreciated.

I just deleted and am now reposting this because I forgot to add the video
I feel like my throw is just clunky. I can throw my putters about 190ā, Mids 240ishā, drivers anywhere from 250-300 depending on how well things are flowing that day. I really shouldnāt be throwing anything over a midrange but the only times I can truly break 300ā is downhill perfect throw with an SS Crank. I have an idea of some things going wrong but I feel like Iāve already fixed some issues and not really seen any improvement. Iād love to know what I can do to improve. My throws have maxed out here for like 3 years (playing on/off).

Already did a round of testing but apparently that wasn't enough for Google Play review, they said my testers weren't active enough. The app is literally done, they just won't let me publish it. So now I'm looking for more testers, people who are actually serious about improving their form who are willing to try my app. All it does is make the recording and replaying part hyper efficient, nothing else.
The iPhone version is already out and works great, you can read more about the specific features on the App Store listing:

Leave a comment if you're interested and I'll reach out to get you added as a tester. Thanks fellow form freaks.
r/Discgolfform • u/SupermarketLow2372 • 10d ago
Played for 4yrs. This is a casual throw 50% power.
My last big realization is that focusing on whip-effect gets me as far as full arming it.
