Hey! Thanks for writing back. Yes I am a silly person who loves Adventure Time. I am 48. I am reliving my childhood watching cartoons with my 10 year old son. I can't be on Facebook due to the rabid controversial politics that happen there. I love disc golf, and do have a desire to improve. I practiced in an open field yesterday with some distance drivers. Average throw was 150 feet with an Infinite disc Aztec :
Speed: 10.0
Glide: 5.0
Turn: -1.0
Fade: 2.0
I am patient and am looking for training method to build distance and accuracy in driving, and not finding a step by step method. There are lots of videos about form, reach back, power pocket, whip, snap. But for a beginner who is bad like me - where do I start - I was thinking - would it make sense to practice with a mid-range ( easier to throw) build distance and accuracy, move up to fairway driver, then to distance driver? Or should I just keep going out, grunting out trying to rip a distance disc to 150 ft and wait for slow improvements by doing it every day that I can. Matt Nelson, in Reston VA
