Disc Golf Analysis – Distance Tiers
I’ve played disc golf for 13 years and like most tenured disc golfers I’ve evolved my game over time. While it’s much more common to analyze individual throwing techniques like power grips or putting styles, I find it helpful to occasionally assess my overall disc golf style to ensure that I’m continually making progress.

Building Your Throwing Technique
I’ve been disc golfing for only two years but I’ve been able to exceed my expectations by far. I’ve also improved faster than my other friends that started at around the same time (Chris will attest to this). When I pair up and play a round with new people, none of them believe that I’ve only played a few years. My early success is a result of solid disc golf technique. I know I have a long way to go but I’m certain I have started on the right track and I owe a lot of credit to Dan Beto and his disc golf technique video.

Push Putting Technique
When I first started playing disc golf, I was terrible at putting. I used the typical wristy motion that almost all beginners attempt. I would miss way right of the basket, or way left if I forgot the natural path of the disc, or really long if I threw with decent enough form to create glide. As a result, my first several rounds involved laying up from 20′ and out. I was so scared to miss badly that I just went for a toss near the basket. Then, I came across a video of a great clinic put on by Dave Feldberg.

ACE your way around the course
The mental side of athletics is often overlooked. We look at professionals and see their amazing abilities but we often forget that their decisions and ability to focus might give them the largest advantage. Disc golf is no different. Two players with similar physical ability can play entirely different based on these invisible factors originating in the mind. I’ve come up with a simple way to remember the three basic mental steps that should be part of every throw: ACE! After all, why not think of an ace on every shot. The acronym stands for Analyze, Commit, and Execute.

Innova McPro and KC Pro Aviar
When a player reaches elite status, equipment manufacturer’s often produce a signature run of their favorite disc. Some of these players even get a signature mold like the KC Pro and McPro Aviar putters for Ken Climo and Paul McBeth. How do these putters perform for mere mortals?

Do you know all your discs?
Quick, can you think of all the discs in your bag? By name and color? Maybe this exercise was easy for you. I normally try to keep a very consistent bag but I’ve been testing so many new discs recently that keeps my bag in a constant state of flux.
