This is a goldmine of important knowledge articulated in a way the average disc golfer can easily understand. Philo you are a true class act!!
He'd laid down more mental education than putting instruction. Don't sleep on this video
He taught a lot in that time! Hehe. It was originally supposed to be about putting, but the Q&A talked about it all and Philo didn't mind sharing!
"You have to love the game even when things aren't going your way."
That was a great tip
a tip that philo does not follow himself lol
You can't spell philosophy without philo! Facts!
The greatest teacher IMHO. There's mechanics, and then there's flow. There are somee great mechanics teachers that I learn a lot from, but Philo teaches the flow of the movements. Whole new level.
Amen! Seriously, I keep thinking about "Apple Pie" every time I putt!
Well Put!
Seriously this man is a legend when it comes to teaching the sport. I’ve watched plenty of videos trying to dial in my putt over the past few weeks. Watched Philo’s clinic one time, and things really clicked. Something about how he takes the technical forms and translates it to the natural movements of the body is incredible.
Philo is simply the best at talking disc golf. He breaks it down in such a relatable way while maintaining the fun that brought us all to the game.
Coming from someone who is new to disk golf (and who wants to improve), I really appreciate the people, like Philo, who take the time to share their knowledge. I am so happy I have discovered this sport!! Challenging, but fun:)
Welcome to the sport! Never stop learning!
Philo, you are an encyclopedia of knowledge! Great guy, great ambassador to the sport.
Yeah philo is great. He was in sweden a couple weeks ago 30 minutes from my home but I found out too late 😭
Such a great dude Philo. He was born to teach and we are lucky to be able to absorb this knowledge. Definitely going to try and implement this in my game!
One of the last things he said rings true for anything in life. We are very fortunate to have fast information at our fingertips at any time. "The information is out there. You just have to go get it" creates such a line in the sand for everyone. Will you take the leap? Or continue to look across the line wondering if you should.
If I was not stuck in out of town I would have came to this for sure. No idea this was happening. Wish I would have known.
It was well worth the trip! That's why we decided to record it, so people like you can enjoy it! :)
@@Discgolfexaminer Where do you learn about these things. I live in the city and I've wanted to get more into playing with groups and going to something like this. Only issue is I'm in Europe till Oct.
Pittsburgh Disc Golf Community on Facebook is a good place to start!
The best disc video everyone should watch. If you watch the whole 45 mins. Your game will change
This is one of those clinics that...when maybe you've been bustin' your hump working through the tough stages of learning the game...you see this, and so many things click for you. That wasn't just a clinic, that was a peek into a pro mindset. Thanks for the work on this.
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching and the kind comment!

Best thing I haven't heard yet, keep the disc in a lane from your body to the chains. Makes total sense and it's a good way to keep consistent. Totally thinking this from now on.
I've been thinking about that too, plus apple pie. It has really helped my putts. I feel more consistent inside the circle.
1. 3.04 Line to the target.
2. 4.21 Good foundation for balance.
3. 5.05 Make up your mind which action.
4. 7.44 See the line, feel the line, throw the line.
5. 9.24 Rhythm Apple Pie.
Philo is truly genuine.
man i knew i loved watching Philo. Big steelers fan! lets gooooo
Yea I’m gonna be buying that dodgers style disc golf hat right now. That hat is so sick.
He made it so simple, but he also conveyed so much at the same time. Can’t wait to apply this
Philo for president 2024! Honestly though, could he be anymore genuine, kind, relatable, wise...? Great coach
They way he conveys information really shows his deep emotional connection to this game.
Thank you for this. This dude is a wonderful teacher he knows his stuff but more importantly he knows how to explain it to make it easy to understand for new people. A big Thank you to everyone involved
You're welcome! We are so glad you enjoyed it!
I have always heard that Philo was a great teacher but those were clearly people underselling his ability to impart knowledge. That was awesome, I didn't anticipate taking notes lol.
I would kill (not really) to have a 1 on 1 with Philo. Just seems like such a fantastic teacher and a fantastic dude.
Philo is the best disc golf instructor and it isn’t close.
Apple pie baby!!! Some of the best advice I’ve ever got!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! And if you keep the rhythm you’ll never have the blues!!!
Ot took me a second or two I was like this guy is crazy but then I started to feel that he was a genius on teaching disc golf
This is THE most helpful video I’ve ever seen yet !!!
I'm a beginner and this is BY FAR the best video I found on putting to explain techniques and faults.
So glad you got something from it!!
Philo is a golfer. Period. It's the same game with a ball or disc. Great info.
I watch this video often just to get me back in touch with things I’m struggling with. Can’t recommend it enough for anyone trying to get a little better every round
Philo is so inspirational, pedagogical. Imagine the world being run by humble, heart loving, dedicated persons like him! I’m not saying he should run for president, but this world is in need of smart, kind and inspirational persons like him. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Philo. Keep doing what you do and spread the love!
The skateboard thing you talked about was a huge help. Thanks, Philo!
Thank you Philo, you dissected the throw and the putt perfectly. Thank you!!
Best teacher ever! Gracias Philo ❤
Philo, what a great golfer and what a great ambassador for the sport!
😊
This is a game changer. Philo is a master! Thank you for this.
Love the way he presents these concepts.
Great Job. Ive been playing 23 years and still learned so much from this. Hope to see ya on tour .
Awesome video! Thanks for posting that here. Great teacher with tons of information.
Pure class, best putting video so far imo
Phillos an excellent teacher.
That clinic is my new favorite
that HeMan refrence threw me back lmfao, but it made complete sense!
What a absolute gentleman and a great coach
I can’t wait for tomorrow morning! I love Disc Golf
One of the best golf video's i've ever seen .. hands down
I love watching this guy teach. Confidence.
Philo is and will always be my favorite pro. waiting on the day to meet him
Awesome clinic!! Modelled my put after Philo when I busted my arm and had to come back. Thanks for sharing. #teamphilo
Philo is so great!
He is the best!
Using the legs is so true. That is the biggest thing for me. I know the instant I release the disc that I missed when I get lazy.
Best natural teacher in the game. Legend
Very 1st thing he does, he blows my mind!! Always loved Philo too! On to the rest of the video 😅
This dude is fantastic teacher
Loved the video. Laughed my ass off when I realized at 35:25 that the girl in the tank top was actually two girls dressed alike! Thought I was losing my mind since she was morphing back and forth lol.
Love the honesty and perseverance perspective. Great advice for life let alone frolf.
Awesome instruction from an awesome player 👍
Wow, lightbulbs going off right and left.. He's super relatable and had very good explanations. Sadly he did an excellent impression of me on his bad putt examples. 😂
Philo just exudes talent and cool.
Love this guy! It rocks seeing a Pro in my age group as well. He is a sharp dude and all these tips are truly valuable.
Thank u so much for showing this 🙏
Our pleasure! Glad you liked it!
This is awesome!!
Amazing video. Learned so much 👍🏾
Glad you got something from it! Philo is the best!
That supreme looks amazing 🥰🥰🥰
Philo is awesome.
Fantastic info!!!
So glad you liked it!
Thanks Philo! 👏
“I am the machine. Whatever I do the disc is gonna show me the story of that motion. Every time.” - the deep disc truths
Philo is awesome I connect with his lessons
Agreed! He's so approachable too!
We need a Philo clinic in FL this winter!!!
Philo is so amazing I have seen many clinics online from other pros. I hope he does this Iowa sometime I’d go visit
Try reaching out to him, I'm sure he would be down to discuss!
Love this
Really wish I would have known about this. Thanks for posting the video.
Our pleasure! Join Pittsburgh Disc Golf Community on Facebook!
This video has helped my putting so much. Still not very good, but I’m atleast putting with alot more intention and starting to see more consistency.
I love Philo
AH-PUL-PIE say it again! Thanks for sharing this video!
I like the way that he explains things. He makes sure that you understand what you're doing out there and includes great detail.
I wonder how good one would get after just one round with this man.
Never seen him train. Dynamic delivery.
Wowow this guy is great
Good ol philthy phil 🤘
Make more of these
Geez this guy can teach
Philo. It's been a long time since I've played a round with you. In 2000 I had to stop due to injuries. I'm so glad to see you " paying it back" to the players that want to be better but don't know how to become better. At a boy my friend. Riley #3948
Riley, I'm not sure Philo will get this message here, but feel free to message him on his site! www.teamphilo.com/
@@Discgolfexaminer Thank You
Way cool💪😎
Thank u
Great video. I remember the rubber band gi joes. Lol
Damn this is my area!
Once he started talking about Apple pies 🥧, I had to grab some snacks!
Philo is a god among mice!
What I find interesting is Scott Stokely teaches the exact opposite when it comes to putting stance. He says think of it like a sprinter on the starting blocks. Staggered but straight in line and while I have felt that this has helped my putting immensely, I also can relate to Philo about the restriction in motion. I think finding a happy medium for your body is key. We are all not gonna reach down like Rick. Another fantastic tip I heard was Paige Pierce saying imagine there are 3 pairs or eyes on your body. Eyes, Shoulders and hips. They all want to look at the basket.
I like a lot of Scott's lessons but he is very clinical and explicitly says he thinks there is 1 right way to do everything. Philo is much more relaxed and rhythm based. For example I found a Stokely video from 2015 saying the spin putt is wrong and will go away because push putt is correct. Obviously he was wrong there as some of the best putters in the world now are heavy spin or hybrid.
I'm only ever going to be mediocre... but at 55, and only starting 2 years ago, I'm REALLY happy with where I am.
In those 55 years I have learnt a few things... but because they work for me, it doesn't mean it will work for you...
Stretching... OK so I've ridden skateboards sub 10yo, sort of a gap other than general sport up to 16, then trail riding (motorbikes) up to 50, Indoor Soccer from 20-30. Indoor netball from 30 to 50, downhill MTB 50-now... so sort of active... and I'm average build.. not overweight (even though I eat crap)...
so... where was I going with this...
For me... stretching is not a thing... 55 years and I could probably count time spent stretching may be an hour or two... in 55 years...
BUT..... warm up...
Stretching often done wrong will literally STRETCH the muscles you want to work right to the limit... but if you stretch them... your weakening that limit... 'Stretching' and be like taking 100 throws... How many shots do you have in you per session... do you want to waste 100 of them...
Warm up your muscles... that means start slow and work up... You are literally warming the muscles (that work better warm than cold), your getting the blood flowing...
and don't just do it before you 'Go'... go for the odd 30 second jog... jog up some stairs...soft but energetic...
and as I say... it's different for everyone... I have a family friend that used to ride to local farm land type Triathlons, place 1-3rd... then ride home...
and that's about all I question in the vid... Everything els is excellent.. and I still can't get 'Apple Pie' out of my head (which is a good thing)...
Basically think 'Warm up' your muscles... because you want them warm
Don't 'Stretch' your muscles.... think about it... Ever gone for a run and 'Stretched a muscle'... it's sort of the same... you can over extend and 'actually 'Stretch' something doing stretches from cold.
Take your bag off your shoulder and carry it in one, then the other arm walking from the car park... envision some puts without doing the throw...
Just don't step up and drive with your 1st shot... (Or you'll stretch something).
q8D
Goddamn, this was some good shit.
create the parallel and enter the apex. got it.
Philo is the fk'ing MAN.
Philo should have released 'Apple Pie' t-shirts.
Is Philo former military? He speaks as if he has military experience.
So likeable and knowledgeable. Would love to shoot a round with him and absorb his suggestions.
I am THE MACHINE!
came here to learn how to putt and now i want some apple pie
