Don't give into Peer Pressure! | Disc Golf Lessons

Published 2024-06-27
Play your game... not the game of that guy that can throw a putter 500ft. Do the work and be secure about your game, so that you don't fall into the trap of changing discs on the Teepad just to appear cooler or that you can throw farther...further? Focus on your game plan and let the other guys try to keep up with that big armed monkey! :D

  • Good stuff! My sons throw putters and I'm throwing fairway drivers, but that's my game and I usually take the win. Its important to not only know your game, but play your game!!

    I like how you highlight the basket in your edits

    My bro is definitely not afraid to throw something much faster than i would.

    This is a life lesson in general! Know your gear and your abilities and play within yourself.

    My local best round was a Pig only round I did, I only beat by 1 stroke a year later. I throw a putter full rip on several holes (MVP Proxy) as I can park it, and if I stuff up... the putter doesn't go all that wayward. On one hole, (Berhampore Wellington NZ #3) it's 300ft down hill about 40 ft... I can get there in tail/cam wind with the putter and be 20ft off with a bad throw. Putters also tend to 'Sit Ubu Sit" instead of skipping off into the wilderness. I also have an RPM Kea in base plastic that is beaded and sticky for longer shots... I used the pig until it was so beat in it was understable. Never be afraid to try something odd... You might just find the Tesla does 280ft straight as a die if you throw it full force 30ft out into the ground in an overhead 1pm roller. Or facing forward open stance and yeeting a scorch straight arm out to the right while staring at the target may just give you the old skool hyzer arc that lands inline with the target nearly every time (tho remembering that that scorch skips on 20ft may remind you to aim right...). (I've bullseyed peoples bags on my walk back from practice baskets) (BTW I'm 55, been playing 2.5 years, bag exactly 20 discs (ADD has me leaving them behind so much, 5 groups of 4 is easier to keep track of.. color coded so I can quickly see whats missing.. and I know my old friends as I've been throwing most of them since I started with my 10 disc bag) and love putting my discs in stupid places jut to see what I do to get out... (working on skip shots with the Tesla and Scorch at the mo...)
