Thanks for always supporting me! Hope you like this video!! If you want to snag a marvel, get one here - infinitediscs.com/birdie-disc-golf-supply-marvel/bodanza-blend
what as name of tournament/date? May seems a bit late for snow in most places except upper plains/western Midwest or a very high elevation course.
Oh, I have tip for elevated baskes/hill putts is go 10 Grams less on main putter putting a disc and use a softer putter unless you already use soft plastics. I do his using a different putter same one since 2005 from my Magnets in Jawbreaker and some Proline Titanic discs for uphill/downhill putting where plastic is as rubbery in a sort of Classic Roc shape disc from a now dead brand at 166 grams as my main Putter and have used when winds are calm as an approach/very long putter and disc used to be my driving putter before I got Star Shark in 175 grams in 2016 and in 2009 and in 2014--2015 I was using my 175 gram Pro Shark. If I did not have disc I have used since 2005 or had a sponsorship not allowing use of disc, I would have a soft Pro D Magnet or possibly Jawbreaker around 166 grams for uphill downhill and very long putts.
@@caseysmith544 this was the 303 open, it was last weekend but up at beaver ranch at about 8300 feet of elevation!! Thanks for the tips!!
@@BodanzaDiscGolf no problem. My tips help so you can float putts and not worry about over-putting your uphill/downhill puts with your normal disc and softer/tackier as in more grip is going to help on missed puts that do not hit basket and bounce unless you can go with a plastic that absorbs impact rather then bounces away.
Keeping working. Also, just play. You are so hyper focused on scoring and rating. It's fine to pay attention to that in between rounds and such, but I think that you distract yourself too much during the round with where you stand and what your score is.
That’s an interesting point. I wonder if his outcomes would be different if he played a couple tourneys where he didn’t check scores at all until after the round.
@ToddsDiscGolf I personally never check I know what I need to do every hole. I've watched too many people crumble worry about everyone else's rounds
If you just play your best it dosnt matter what everyone else do, cuz you did your best, by worrying about other people wont make you a better player:)
Agreed I feel like what also might help him is to not worry about as much content during the tournament and just make a recap of the tournament after the fact
He’s still super new! People have been playing it for so long and the progress he’s made in the short time playing disc golf is incredible. There is so much time to enjoy and get better!
Goldfish memory. Every throw is a new chance. Keep grindin
As much as this might sound counter productive (especially financially) but for long term benefit, have you considered playing a round or even an entire tournament and SOLELY focus on playing, no camera, no phone, no thinking about video production, JUST disc golf? Or at minimum, maybe have a caddie do the filming and carry your bag to increase your focus on the play itself even just a little?
Anthony, just wanted to say that you're an inspiration of sorts to me after finding your content last month. Really enjoyed going through your vlog and seeing all the work you've put in and your passion. I've played disc golf casually for like 15 years now, but seeing what your capable of has made me strive to play better and most importantly have structure, goals and get back active in a lot of things I've put down or off for a while personally.
I know these videos really only display your virtual life, but thank you for letting us join you with what you show. I think your content is great and makes a difference. I only say all this to encourage you to continue pushing yourself, staying focus and dedicated both on and off the course - on and off tour; because you've done so for me.
I picked up a couple of your Marvel's. Got the gold stamp I'll play with (you won't be alone at putting practice), and I'm hoping I can snag your John Hancock on a flag stamp disc eventually while your on tour or something.
God bless and much love.
I’m in the same place. I’ve seen to lost the joy that disc golf brought early on. I apply way too much pressure to play good golf and end up playing way outside of my potential. I’m 941 rated and shot 2 under 900 rounds this weekend. Couldn’t hit the blind side of a barn in C1. Multiple putting on several holes. BUT I do plan to just reset and find that joy again and just play the game as intended.
Putting tip for you: before stepping up to a putt, imagine the line and watching the disc hit the chains where you want. Step up, go through routine and hit that spot. If you have a negative thought AT ALL during your routine, step off and then reimagine the shot and make it. Best tip I ever received in this game.
Anthony, some encouragement: when I first started watching your channel I remember being speechless at how much better at putting you were than I was - WHILE talking to camera - and was fully aware that was why you were higher rated than me.
Now you’ve gone and made your backhand amazing which has been inspiring to watch.
But speaking of Paul Ulibarri, I heard him say before he did that massive turnaround last year that one of the biggest things for him was cutting so much of the “yeah I’m so bad” talk about himself, and also remembering “except I AM a really good putter.” And what was wild, when he said that I didn’t think that about him in comparison to the tour. But now he’s gone and proved it so hard no one can argue.
I hope in your journey you ALSO, Anthony Bodanza, remember “except I AM a really good putter.”
As someone who also "Likes things to come fast" I feel ya brother
I'm hoping you'll quit worrying about the result and have some fun ... keep on keepin' on.
First comment. Never stop working and never ever quit.
Keep grinding.
It’s not about you, it’s about him. Downvoted for the stupid first comment BS. No one cares
Putting used to be your strength. I'm not sure why you switched away from pures besides financial reasons.
It’s just super important to play as much as you can on the course. Mix in putting practice and net practice / field work as your body can handle the stress and you have specific stuff to work on. For learning to score, nothing beats being on the course practicing scoring. Content is great but it’s a distraction.
I felt like quitting during a round recently. I stopped trying. No routine, no effort, no care. I was just a puddle. At the end of the round I had to apologize to my card. I carried myself with negative energy. That is not the person I want to be even when my rounds aren’t going well. My next 2 tournaments I acted more like Missy Gannon. I now smile or even giggle after poor shots. I feel better and even play better and I don’t put my card down with me. It’s a win win.
Chin up, brother! Keep the dream alive and keep grinding. Tough conditions all weekend. Balancing shooting your shot and laying up is a real challenge for all of us, one I almost never get right. Keep up the hard work, and share what developmental techniques work for you as you continue to progress.
Because you WILL continue to progress and improve!
Just copped the marvel! Please keep pushing!
Learned more about the game from you and overthrow than anyone else on youtube. Love these uploads. 6'5 and you got my game from 350 to 465 man. Keep at it.
Just have fun man. Also when you practice so much and do phenomenal there you can put unnecessary pressure on yourself. Let your game come to you, the universe unfolds as it should 🤘
Remember that you've made remarkable progress in a short amount of time. I think your focus should be on qualitative analysis, not quantitative.
If you shot your full potential and you were placing where you are then I would say you need to figure something out but watching you you haven’t even gotten close to what we know you can do. I think you’re on the right track and it’s the mental game that is getting you. Keep it up broham you have a huge fan base behind you.
Wooooah your Paul Uli-put thoughts sounds so smart. Take another level of worry a bit away so you can focus on your throws. I'm doing the same atm, doing a bit more floaty stuff again and am so happy with the results.
Have you tried using a putter with more grip? I used to putt with the Gannon PA3’s and I had no confidence on the green. I felt like I was trying to force the putter to work for me, but I also felt that the putter didn’t stick or catch to the chains well at all. I switched to the classic judges with the hand eye stamp and it feels amazing and has boosted my putting confidence so much. Granted I’ve also been doing more intentional putting practice as well, but I also feel like they catch to the baskets much better too.
I felt the "you too" at the beginning 😂
I know you wanted to make a putter change, but have you tried going back to the pure? Sometimes it’s not worth the change just for the sake of change. I’ve gone back and forth with putters myself, and I’m stuck on the PA-3. I might have success for a round or two with a different putter, but when the pressure is on I crumble on the putting floor.
I know the feeling. But the fact is you aren’t your results. How you chose to deal with adversity shows who you are, in whether you’re a quitter or a champion.
at little surprised at your putting commentary: what was normal about those greens? How do you practice putting on slopes, in the cold, in the wind? Each of us live in areas of this country (and around the world) where we have unique disc golf courses. If I were to play at this course, I would be freaking out on the putting greens. The balance, the core strength, the release points are all new and different (to me) - and essentially to you as well because you had one practice round. With more time on this particular field, you would have had a plan on where to land so that you could give yourself the best opportunities. It seems that the better you plan, it provides a better foundation to set your expectations. In a way, you may need to master these Q courses in order to achieve your ultimate goal of the DGPT. If you watch the progression of the card holders, ask yourself one simple question: How many times has Player X had to play this course in order to be top 10? The answer should guide you to a more reasonable plan that is both achievable and motivational.
I feel like you putted best with Pures. Keep grinding!
Correlation to when I practiced putting haha, I stopped putting well with them when I stopped practicing a lot 😂
@@BodanzaDiscGolf And your straddle was fire 🫶
Just play each hole man. You are scaring yourself to death.
While you've practiced putting plenty, it's probably worth noting that you were hyper-focused on distance for a while. It makes sense that the putting would suffer a smidge. Now it's time to put it all together. Way better than I am though haha.
Thanks for sharing your journey Anthony!
Just a friendly reminder your are attempting to do something really hard with what I would say roughly around on average a sixteenth of a percent of time experience in the sport you are trying to compete at the absolute top level of competition available in the world it’s not easy just got to keep pushing 💯👍👏
It may seem antithetical to competitive scoring, but perhaps think like a performing artist. If I am playing a concerto with an orchestra and I know there is a tricky part in the third movement, I am not thinking about that in the first or second movements, or probably not anyplace in the third movement until I get to it. Worrying, almost to the point of obsession, about mustbirdiemustbirdemustbirdie or I won’t reach X goal may be interfering with how you address a particular shot at hand.
Play in the moment-not each hole, but each shot. You know what a good shot is. You know how to construct a strategy on a single hole to make the most of what you have to work with. The only real competition in this sport is yourself. The adversarial competition is a construct. The cash line or top 10, while nice goals, are constructs. Push the “what if” calculation of score and rating to the side. “What if” you made 75% of the shots exactly how you wanted? 85%? 95%. What would your score and rating look like then?
Yes your putting train of thought was still boarding at the station for this one. It happens. But you seem to be pretty clear in your mind about what that meant to the end results, and that’s a good thing. I look forward to watching your improvements
You are a brave soul. I respect your journey
Snow in May dude. I wouldn't make it. Good content as always. Keep pushing.
Keep Yur head up, yu got this don’t beat yurself up so much, take it hole by hole and have fun 🥰
You've been really ambitious this year. You seem to be so goal driven so not meeting those goals might be hurting you more than helping. I really think you can have success at the highest level. Just be patient with yourself and keep crushing. Or, come back to the Cleveland area and play some of these weaker B and C tiers and get some confidence built up! You can cash all day out here and play some great courses at 700 feet instead of 7000.
Be bold. Start cold.
1st one was still pretty good for a mountain snow round.
Don’t quit
Sounds like my disc golf life, one day I am hitting every putt and thinking to myself , "I'm really pretty decent" , then the next 3 times I can't
throw a decent shot, hit every tree miss every putt, then I have a good day, I really now just try to enjoy the fresh air and the walk
Keep up the journey mate! If you can stay relaxed, your play WILL improve. I think you said you wanted top 10? Well you DID get enough birdies to do that. Just have to relax and play good clean golf, never forcing birds so you don't overextend. You'll get more pars and probably even more looks at birds too.
Just put up 200 putts a day, it all comes down to that
In his workout video AB says he does 200 made putts a day 😮
Wanna be an elite putter? Do the Ricky and develop the habit of 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening sandwiching practice on the course and fieldwork in between.
Hardest hustling disc golfer out there, you'll get to it my brother. Keep your head up.
It’s awesome to see your journey man! Keep at it. I’ve been here since the beginning and I’ll be here until the bitter end (:
Enjoy watching you 👍 maybe all the disc reviews you do you can’t find the right disc to play with. Just a thought! You found your putters but not the others. Hang in there YOU GOT THIS ⛳️🙏
I'm 8 months in and got discouraged because of my counterparts 😅😅but quickly found out these dudes are 8+ years in...my PROgression my time
Is this video really old? Where are you that its snowing? Im from wisconsin and its 80° today
was May 10--12 at 303 ranch and was around 8,380 feet of elevation.
No it's not. You're still getting better super fast! This shows better than I've ever seen the level at what top tier players can pull in almost every tournament - what being dialed in and consistent (in varying circumstances)really means. Gosh, how long some players have grinded, and through experience and repetition in pro comps have finally got to consistent placing in the top half. This is at most unfortunate, but still builds up that foundation for when you get there, you'll then stay there!
hello so i want to make sure that i don't come off as uncaring but i want to offer a little perspective here..... in the two or so years that you have been playing you have gotten to travel the nation playing disc golf both as an amateur and a sponsored player, you have met and developed real friendships with many of the most admired players in the sport, you have your own tour series discs with a major retailer. i get that you want to do be successful as a professional but you have already accomplished more than 90+ percent of us ever will. everything from here is a bonus even if you only ever finish in last place at every tournament you play you got to play.... even the 12th, 25th, 53rd man on the bench is still a pro..... stop trying to play great and just play because it will be over soon enough and all you will have is the regrets that you didn't enjoy the ride while you were on it. you're good enough, if you weren't i am sure one of you're many pro friends would tell you. AND STOP WORRYING ABOUT RATINGS!!!!!!!!
Every problem has a solution, keep pushing you got this!
Keep your head up. Remember that most people have a bad round a move on. You have to document it and share it with us, which makes it worse for you…. But you’ll be stronger in the end for it!
I think more stagger stance putts would be better seems like you’re more comfortable with those
You should really consider reading The Inner Game of Tennis. It really helps with the mental side of things and getting out of your own head
Just remind yourself you've been a fantastic putter before and you will be again. Seems like you made EVERYTHING when I first started watching the channel from your straddle putt. Maybe C1 should be straddles and you change it to in line for 40+ footers. Keep grinding.
All a learning experience big man. Keep your eyes on the prize and the work will pay off
You like to come fast 😂I caught it 😂
Keep grinding. You're a great player!
I'm taking full credit for your use of the Marvel, cause I commented on almost everyone of your videos on putters or putting, that the Marvel is simply the best putting putter on the market.
At 4:50 why did he look at us like we said it
You got this brother are you by chance playing in the ccr open at burchfield park in holt Michigan as part of your q series?
AB you are doing progress, dont focus so much on rating and scores on your comps..just play and have fun like your practice rounds
Ayy Eagle made the Vlog
Just have fun.
A year ago, you didn't even hardly think about a C1 putt. You made freaking everything? What changed? I'd start there...
Adversity makes for great content. I'm not worried about your future in disc golf, for you it seems like a matter of perseverance and time. Also, what's going on with the bed frame in the van? Cheers! 🍻
I get anxiety just listening to you lol I feel I play best when I shut my brain off as much as I can. Keep it simple less thoughts , less analyzing, just let your body play. You already have the pressure of competing don't put more on yourself!
You've got all of the potential and tons of ability. You'll get there!
Take it from me, someone with less than 1 year of experience who's 2 hours away from playing my first ever tournament... Most of your problems seem to be mental. Try playing the next tournament, basically the same as you play when you're just filming a round for us. You're putting a ton of pressure on yourself and missing shots i know you can make. You got this, man. It's just throwing some plastic circles in the end.
Honest question, are other people OK with him vlogging & talking thru the round? On the DDO vlog I guess it just threw me off as he's asking other players during the round what's up..I don't know, maybe it happens all the time and he has their permission, just seems like it'd be distracting for people trying to be locked in and compete.
Dude, you have improved in so many facets of your game. Be patient. Content is always great. We like you because like us you have bad rounds
Worrying about scoring and ratings is fine on a macro level big picture standpoint, but I think he is too focused on it at a micro level, like within a round. The scoring improvements will come with putting in the work and just playing.
Really appreciate these breakdowns of the course's challenges, your strategies, and your earnest recaps.
Thanks for capturing my #randomdeuce on hole 3. Seeing that made my day.
Cheering for you and excited to play another round with ya soon.
Keep living the dream bud.
ABYou're a great player and it's going to come to you. Golf is witchcraft period .
You're so honest and I love that. Keep grinding my brother, you got this.
Don't give up, keep up the practice and videos, you're more of an inspiration to people than I think you realize. Much love Banana man.
You should definitely not watch the scores during the round, how far you are on cash line etc. (or at least try and see how it goes) It is amazing to me how much pressure that puts on you in addition to nerves playing in a tournament. It looks like you are stressing yourself way more then you should. Best of luck to you onwards
The epitome of “can’t see the forest for the trees.”
Bro has played for two years and bummed about a 950 rated round. Brother, you’re killing it. Give yourself some credit
Lat 64 pures!!!
I watch you for content not for being amazing at disc golf, don’t worry if you play bad we appreciate your content either way. everyone wants to be a pro at disc golf but that is a dream that just dies as you play this sport more and more, I’m pretty sure it’s mostly up to genetics for weather you throw far or not ,
my friend has only played for a year and now those 550 and makes Calvin destroy’s flip up and turn like my old teebird, it is just not fair
Him and others like him will definitely kick you off the tour so try to focus more on content so you continue to enjoy disc and don’t get burnt out. the next ten years on tour is going to shatter all the people we that used to think were good. everyone will be like Eagle and if you’re not they will take your place
My friend is only 6.1 but he does have really long arms which is the key to throwing and putting far
I think you're expecting things too fast. There is a process n levels with this game. No matter how much work u think u putt in there is soo much more be patient. Gl
Ive crushed my local 12 hole course at 14 down one day.. I havent done it since. It comes and it goes my friend.
Games are fun, dont loose sight of the game.
Maybe a chill pill before you play. You have racing thoughts and can’t settle down. For adhd folks, it’s often caffeine or something along that line that chills you. Whatever it takes, you gotta get out of your head. Plus I think you need to stay in the moment and turn the camera off. At tournaments, play disc golf, stay focused. Put the camera away
Tell me that "INCHES" is from Elf 😂 "six inch ribbon curls honey. SIX. INCHES.."
“For a person who likes things to come fast 👀”😭
Maybe do mock tourneys where you play like you were in a tourney, desensibilize yourself…..head up man👍🏻
It's not embarassing. You'd have been a genius if your path was linear. Keep playing, and try to find ways to keep it fun. One thing I might suggest is throw fewer discs. Stick to the ones you know. I know alternating altitude makes that difficult, but trying to completely change discs acording to elevation just saps your confidence.
TONS of tips here, don't forget wearing layers slows arm speed and change resistance, which throws off your muscle memory, so let misses go and try hard! GL
Seems like you are, in hockey/lacrosse terms, "gripping the stick too tight." You are focusing so hard on feeling natural and calm that you're seemingly going in the opposite direction during the shots you really need it. You are working with a trainer for form and strength. Have you considered a few sessions with a sports psychologist? May be a worthwhile investment. Keep pushing!
This is the exact reason I stopped playing sanctioned events. Not fun; high pressure/ anxiety. Not sure why we hold sanctioned events higher than non. Just have fun keep it light. Also it's taken me 4 years to where my putt feels confident. Try to focus on this putt not the situation. More mental practice....?🤘✌️
If you want embarrassing disc golf come throw a round with me.. I try my best but I think I just suck at it
I know why you have to do it. But the click bait is getting a bit much lately.
Bro. Go hang out with Scott Stokley. He’ll get you right. Trust me
Big fan but GET OUT OF YOUR HEAD!
The definition of paralysis through analysis..... and go back to putting with Pures
You actually think the disc is the problem missing from 15ft? You should be able to putt a 14 speed from 15ft dude. Disc blaming is how you don't progress
@@prattacaster I think it’s the confidence in the disc. If you pick up a putter and feel confident with it you will make more putts. He seemed way more confident with pures in his hand last year.
@@tylerjames8330 Maybe, but he is saying when he misses putts he has long come backers, that gets worse with Pures
This is a solid thumbs down
youre such a diva. id say thats the embarrassing part. not the play.
I’m recording a road to the tour series on my channel and just had some of the worst rounds ever recorded on camera. It really sucks when all the excitement built up goes to the garbage and turns to pure sadness. I trust that both of us will return stronger 🫡
