[Disc-O Golf]

Lessons are available at the Clearwater Disc Golf Store in Clearwater, Florida.
2 instructors to choose from:
Joe G, PDGA #5740 &
Scott, PDGA #5003.
I have several repeat (refresh) lesson takers now...there is so much to learn and they were really excited about how good the prior lessons worked and how fast the scores lowered with just a few key changes.
Every lesson shaves years of trial and error and puts you on the fast track to improving scores.
You can practice all you want, but if you are not practicing properly, you are not helping your game.
We teach fundamentals, proper practice, rules, and mental conditioning as well as understanding your equipment.
Everything from the first timer to the Seasoned Professional...One hour with a 20 year veteran will make you Better!
If you are going to vacation in Sunny Florida, remember to schedule in your lesson...we are only an hour and a half away from Disney World in Orlando!
Here is a great graphic I found on the web...see if you can get anything out of it for Disc Golf...I sure did!!!

What kind of lesson are you looking for?

[james lynwood balliet]

I need to know how to hold the disc, power grip, fan grip, and when to release the disk. Sometimes i let it fly and I still don't know how I did it. Other than watching all your videos on lessons. Is there a difference between a grip on a drive or a grip on a mid?

[mark ellis]

There is no single grip which works best for everyone on every shot. The farther you want to throw a disc the firmer your grip has to be (the tighter you need to squeeze to transfer power). Some players use the same backhand grip for all shots and all discs: drivers, mids and putters. Most players use more than one grip depending on the shot. On backhands, I use a power grip when I throw hard, no matter the disc, and a pinch grip (aka fan grip) when I throw softly, no matter the disc.

Discgolfreview.com has a section on grips in its instructional articles which shows several grips and describes the benefits. You need to find what works best for you which takes trial and error.

Whatever the grip, golf shots should be judged by control, not power. So the grip which gives the best control is what you want to use.
