The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
As disc golfers we hit tiny gaps 200 foot down the fairway and have trouble sometimes with a 30 foot putt. Miss your putt, pick up your driver and put it in every time. What ya gonna do?

Permalink Reply by Rob Liebman on June 21, 2012 at 12:09pm I have been working a lot on my 80-120 foot approach "putt" using a forehand. I am hoping to knock down one or two of those a tournament with enough practice. But...it also means having the confidence to nail the comebacker on a miss. So I have been taking 8 putters and running them from that distance and then forcing myself to hit the comebackers from the furthest disc away. It is helping to drop a few of the long guys but more importantly, it is really helping with making those 20-30 footers seem absolutely routine in my head. If I am gaining confidence from 80-120 then the 20-30 seems like a tap out now. I don't think I missed one at last weekend's tournament with the accompanying pressure. Oh, I did get three of the long guys too! Love the new drill...

Permalink Reply by Rob Liebman on June 21, 2012 at 2:31pm Instead of laying up under the basket from 120, I'm now trying to give everything a chance from that range. My mantra is never ever 3 putt so I needed to make sure I could run the 120's but not miss the 20-30 comebacks. So with 8 putters I run them all with a chance and then take all 8 and move to the furthest away point from the runs to putt all the comebacks. Works on short approaches/long putts at the same time as the short putts which adds variety and keeps me on the practice green longer. I know some very wise people advocate only putting with one or two discs at a time so each putt feels important, for me, the repetition and muscle memory of throwing 8 at a time is very valuable.
