Most of us are trying to think about 5 different things while we're throwing. Usually doesn't end well.
That's why you practice, so you don't have to think about it when you're playing.
Thanks for generating this one. It's precisely what I (DrSlade) asked for a few months back - and I really appreciate the "here's the model, and here's where *I've* been able to get to" element.
Yes! It was your original idea
@@slingshotdiscgolf1897 And, for what it's worth... the "crinkle shoe" and "PULVERIZE THE BUG" discussion would be SUPER valuable to get into the program... especially the heel drop. I see now that I was misinterpreting the heel drop drill - either by getting TOO on top of the right foot... or by noticing that, trying to stay BEHIND the right foot, and kind of uselessly twisting the left leg rather than driving off of the ball of that foot. Seeing McBeth's left heel with just a HAIR of daylight for the whole drift really makes clear what the leg SHOULD be doing. Too easy for me to MISS the point of the heel drop drill... and it's a WAY more complicated drill to get right than it might seem at first glance!
Sidewinder has a good video about the left arm. Engages the oblique sling..so yeah it is important
I activate my obliques big time!
Love the rules and the matching form! Glad I listen to someone that can actually do the movements they talk about
as a fairly new disc golfer ( June 2022 ) I have watched so many videos trying to figure out what the "right way" is to do things when it comes to tee shots, putting, etc...etc...I am 61 years old, I can only throw about 240 feet or so. My longest from a stand still position out in the local city park was 255. I have an issue with an injury I suffered more than 10 years ago when I was struck by a pickup truck while crossing the street, so I have to be careful when i throw with 100% power. I just had someone film me with their cell phone out on the local soccer field for the first time. It's very confusing, I can throw pretty straight, and can hit tunnel shots that other people in tournaments have great trouble with. I can see that proper form is the key to getting great distance. I have to go and try this this weekend and see if i can mimic what you are doing
Most people can't do a single 1 legged squat. This is asking you to balance all your weight on your non dominant leg, while coiling, and drifting, and once you plant, use that backleg to launch your weight into your brace.
I can't get my knee down as deep as the pros can, I've started to just being able to get it in before the arm some. I know the rest is just gonna come with time.
It's simply not a position people can get into on day 1, it takes actual work.
Well said
I might add rule 11: always have some sweet intro music for every video!
Really great video, Coach T! I like how you went through the walk-up and drive in chronological order. A great way of showing your rules in action.
Super informative. Yes, this is how you do it. But this is the why, and I think it’s important part of process. I’m just finally implementing smooth is far and letting disc rip out. I’m not throwing the disc as much as I’m “slinging” disc. I’m using less effort.
Do you have a recommendation on how I can make a smooth far more powerful for distance. Is it a better timed brace or speed? How do I get more arm speed? Thanks!
I just think it's soon crazy how he compares himself to Mcbeth
I don't see how these other coaches don't see that this is NOT squishing the bug.
I threw about 5000 feet from outta hot air ballon although most of that was vertical distance. 1 mile here i come!
This is really concise and helpful. Thanks for the post.
Anyway, here's Wonderwall

Who's this Paul Beth guy you are talking about :)
Boots!!! ❤️💯
It's actually BAT DOG lol
What? He’s so calm 😂
10 part series coming on how to get into each of these?
Umm... It's more that this is a summary of all the lessons that he's done. None of this is new if you've been watching the videos. If not, go back to the beginning and watch them.
It's true, but I think it's a good idea to redo them in order. I believe I can improve my explanations. I really appreciate you watching all the videos. It means a lot to me!!@@clintsawyer7702
Great rules! Also, as someone who has seen you throw live, you really make it look effortless. Keep up the great work!
Was in a pro tournament this past weekend. There was a $20 prize for first place so I was trying super hard to throw over 600 feet. Plus there were a TON of chicks there cheerleading for me. Unfortunately I came in 2nd to last place and got banned from the disc course for public urination . I told them I have a weak bladder but it didnt matter apparently, what a crock
But hey, $20 is $20

He didn’t win 20
@@Bri777 it's an old internet joke/ reference. Figured since we were riffing on nonsense I didn't need to make much sense either to play along.
Wasnt it, "and then i found 10 dollars"
Are you sure you’re not pro?
When you say "coiling into the hip", I believe you're meaning that the torso coils against the hips, and that tension is above the hips in the abs. VS the hip being the primary place to coil (makes butt turn back). Maybe better stated, coil from top down so your torso is twisted. Correct?
I think the way he said it is perfectly fine and describes what you are doing. He said coiling INTO the hip, not coiling the hip.
I could be wrong here, but I think the key point is that the hip coil is passive. It's incidental. It's not actively coiled. It happens as a natural consequence of the forward move while trying to keep weight over your back leg and upright posture.
The longer your final plant step is the more hip coil you'll get because in an effort to keep your balance on your back leg as you extend the front leg you're going to turn your hips and land with the toe. It's just unavoidable. The only way you don't do this is if you take a shorter plant step or don't maintain back leg weighting very long, which would make your body tilt forward.
Two ways of saying the same thing but yeah thats what he means.
Rule #1 dont vote for trump
Bet you throw like 200ft max distance hahahaha
Well, that was completely out of nowhere and had absolutely nothing to do with this video. It's almost like something a mentally unstable person would say.
I throw about 700 feet
