@@DC-zg8jk That's cool to hear, how did you know? They way he breaks down the mechanics of putting, is just awesome. His ability to explain it and translate how it should feel really made the difference. The first time I tried it on the course, the disc just flw completely different than it ever has for me. Low laser that felt too low out of the hand that just hit dead center from @ 35 feet. I normally have to lob them from that distance.

@ClarkPotter Stokely: 1. admits on camera to teaching the wrong putting technique for years. 2. Sidearm, approaches target with square shoulders. That is awful form. No other pro does this. 3. Sidearm, encourages strange ritualistic neurotic habits & arm swings before throw. 4. Sidearm, claims elbow should only EVER be tight to body on hyzer throw only. Reality is it s/b for a straight shot as well. He really embellishes to newbs that ur elbow should rarely ever be tight to the body. What he shud say is elbow shud be away from body on reach back & follow thru and anny. 5. Encourages never to do field work. Only practice by playing rounds. Ridiculous. 6. Teaches u shud not throw it hard. States smooth form will get you distance. Well no shit it will. Arm speed on top of smooth release will yield max results. 7. Teaches u shud throw every disc in ur bag FH & BH. Reality is most pros have specific moulds for FH. My beef with this tip is he doesnt explain to newbs FHers like OS discs to prevent turnover. Turnover = speed > spin + stability. 8. Claims 600' throw in a vid where it was clearly no more than 350. 9. Lives off a distance record he set in 100 mph winds in the 90s. 10. Claims you should never have elbow pain from throwing forehand if you have the correct form. That is complete nonsense. Your putting max pressure in tiny ligaments you are going to have pain over time. 11. Believes Paige Pierce's play hasn't downgraded, just that all the competition has gotten better and she's stayed the same. Mind blowing takeaway.

I also started putting to the side, bringing the disc almost down to my left knee, allowing me to keep my elbow inside which already seems so much more consistent. Already my put is feeling better, thanks!!!

I come from a long background of training and coaching a lot of different sports and I am very interested in the pedagogic side of it (disc golf is what I such at most, which is probably why I can't stop doing it). What is different and unique about your way of teaching is the fact that you can actually explain what and why you are doing it the way you are doing, in contrast to many other great players to whom the technique comes so naturally they cannot really explain it to others. Also, you are the first player that have been able to also show how not to do (your last video) and the first really that I have seen who have been able to demonstrate the importance of the power pocket with otherwise bad form. There are a lot of theories out there, so it easily gets very confusing, but you manage to keep it simple and on the point. Great work!

Turns out I've been handicapping myself with my backswing of my putting motion. I was drawing it back to the same side of my body, which made it accurate when I got it right, but also sacrificed a lot of power and could make it inconsistent if I wasn't perfect. I changed my backswing to go down to my opposite leg just a few days ago and though I am still getting used to it I can tell I am putting so much better this way. Thanks so much!!

This technique has added so much power to my putt, I can use a normal stroke know from outside C1. Haven't figured out the feel for a step putt yet with this.

@@markhumphrey8894 I had been thinking of it as an arm swing powered by the lower body with and active wrist snap, which it is...for some reason I was thinking about the elbow drive that Gannon mentions.for putting, to me, when you get the mechanics right it feels like a compact mini whip where the elbow goes first which loads up the wrist and ends in the sort of energized finger pop he refers to. So I tried leading the forehand with the elbow which cocked my wrist which produced surprisingly powerful, efficient, and wobble free forehand with an ultimate lid. It for sure translated to driving a forehand, now that I can feel the timing of that, I can add power to it without thinking its about throwing this disc with the hand or arm it about loading the system that results in a cleanly ejected disc. I should probably do video or something, but thank you for asking this question. When ever I try to communicate a sort of "aha moment " I learn more about it in the process!
