i know you hear this a lot but i have to say it.. you inspired me to play disc golf and i just want to thank you so much. rutgers is my home course so hopefully i might see you there one day i'm a varsity pitcher so my forehand is really good but i got the technique from watching your videos.once again thanks
im still hoping to get my first ever ace... closest i had was i drove off a tee.. .threw it about 5 feet.. sad i know.. then i threw it in the basket from there
Cubby, great job on the aces - just amazing. But I have a question, are you throwing for the ace every time? I was taught to throw for the base of the pole and then take a bird, cause if you throw at the chains you could skip off 30-50ft. If you do always go for the chains, does it sometimes hurt your score, by missing a long comeback put? Even though your putting looks good you must miss the occasional 40-50 footer,right?
I go for it in a way that will leave the disc close if I miss the ace. I throw skip shots whenever possible. It bleeds the speed of the shot as it skips off the ground and usually gets it close. I seldom use stable plastic off the tee or I would have a an issue with a long come back putt if I miss. Using overstable discs for the skip shot or an "S" shot usually putts me in a good position for the duece if I miss the ace. I agree with you that course management is the smart way to go.
if im playing a non-competitive round I go for the ace every time! You miss 100% of the shots you don't take :) If I am in a tourney, I go for the bird though

I meant it looks like it's about 3 A.M. in the video when, in reality, it's only 7 P.M.
