  • i usally get more out of my drive if i eat taco bell before i go and release my gas right after my x step it gives me about 50 more feet to my drive and sounds really cool plus makes it harder on the next guy who is behind you

  • "Stay away from the fast stuff! Trust me - I learned this the hard way."

    Wow! I found this hobby about an month ago, and have trained since few times in a week. I have been struggling with my drive. I can hammer a ~80 meter throw with my 175g Beast, but the accuracy is bad. With your tip I started to train my drive with 172g Leopard, and as result, today I managed to hammer my first ACE in Siltamäki/Helsinki/Finland track #17 (par3|50m). Disc retired, and going to get a new one. Thanks man!!

  • Nice video. Im gonna practice this til i figure it out. By the way, whats your favorite kind of pasta? :)

  • Your video is awesome. Great break downs. Easy to follow. Wish you had including something on grip. Thanks!

  • Your video is a favorite on Botswana

  • @1manvsworld you're**

  • I played dg for awhile and range around 325-350 ft with discs 172g-176g, great accuracy, but seem like i can't push it past 350, i'd like to be able to make birdies at holers at 400-450 ft from tee off.. I tried your way and it seem to pull my throws back to 200-225 ft (not saying that your mechanics is bad, everyone has different mechanics) But HOW can i increase another hundred or more on my throws with my mechanics? *I feel the snap and the accuracy is good but distance?* Let me know thanks!

  • For all you dicks who talk crap about this guy: I'm new at the sport and need advice on how to play and this helped me out. If you think you can create a better how to video shut the hell up and go make it and post it up so newbies like me can learn. Effin haters man...

  • I know this video has slowed down a bit, but its still great for newer players. One question, though: how much distance should you lose with each step? For example, if you through 400' with reach-back and an x-step, what should you throw from the pec with an x-step? how about with no step? I'm re-building my drive, and I want to make sure I'm getting this close to correct before I move on.

  • @4PLAYSTATION4 i think so
