Lesson - Overstable putters

1

Lesson - Overstable putters

Overstable putters are just what it says on the tin: turns left, less glide. They are most resistant to outside forces of friction and inertia. They also are most forgiving, but at the same time least controllable without proper force. Overstable putters are typically built bulky to induce drag and quicker fade.

Lesson - Understable putters

1

Lesson - Understable putters

Understable putters offer more glide and less fade at low speeds than other putters. Glide, speed and fade speed(stalling) will resist fading until the end of flight. Angular momentum will lift the opposing wing from the hand up at high speed and high spin rates. Understable putters are typically built slimmer to reduce drag and fade. Very useful to "flip flat and fly straight" -type of throws.

Lesson - Beadless vs. beaded putters

1

Lesson - Beadless vs. beaded putters

Beadless putters tend to be neutral to understable. Beaded putters add bulk and weight to the putter's outer edge making them more stable to overstable. Depending on your grip and hand size one will feel more comfortable than the other. The bead was designed for a more consistent grip.

Lesson - Basic grip

Where to grip and how hard to grip. Here we discuss the grips for different angles and types of putts. We talk about the forefinger on the inside vs. on the outside of the rim. The grip also affects the motion of putting so we talk a little bit about brushing the flight plate vs. pulling or pushing.

Lesson - Push putt / Shovel putt

1

Lesson - Push putt / Shovel putt

This is the least risky approach to the basket. It creates an arching flight for optimal approach speed and angle to the target. Very small risk for "3-putting". This is because the natural arc or the flight doesn't allow the disc to fly very far past the basket should you ever miss.

Lesson - Spin Putt

Spin putt style offers higher rewards with the higher risk involved. When it's working it’s the best way to putt in Matt Bell's opinion. Wind affects spin putting the least. It also involved less guesswork on angles than other putting styles, but it also creates the most "3 putt" situations.

Lesson - Hybrid / Anhyzer putting

The style that has the best of both worlds. There is more spin than pop with this style. If you don’t overpower the putter it will fly very straight on every angle. Creating a full flight for the disc to keep the angle neutral and flat at the end. This style is very effective for safely running putts with spin and minimal risk.

Lesson - Stance

1

Lesson - Stance

First we build a solid foundation to be able to line up your hips and shoulders level with the target. Make sure you are able to move back and forth without leaning forward or side to side too much, you want to be able to keep this consistent at any distance.

So here we go through again the two most used stances: straddle stance and staggered stance. The basics of these stances are already in the basic putting course, but it is good to go through them again just for reminder, and get Matt Bell's take on the subject.

Lesson - The target

Let's talk about the target or the basket. The finish of the hole is when the disc stays rest in the basket. There are some finer points on where we should hit the basket to have the most consistent results. There points are good to take into consideration when we are practicing putting so we practice the good habits when we are working to become better putters.

Lesson - Neutral or flat angle

1

Lesson - Neutral or flat angle

Wings of the putter are flat and level or symmetrical. This angle is best done with a stable or an understable putter. It is generally considered to be the safest way to approach the basket. It is also the least likely to roll away. This angle is also the least affected by the wind since the angles don't give any large surface for the wind to grab on to.

Lesson - Hyzer

1

Lesson - Hyzer

The wing opposite to the hand is lower or downwards. Moves right to left for right-handed players. It is the most natural and predictable flight to master. It is also the most likely angle to stand up and roll away after hitting the basket or the ground. It has also greater chance to go through the chains because of this.

Lesson - Anhyzer

The wing opposite your hand is higher. It will try to move left to right for right-handed backhand players. It is also the safest and softest way to approach the basket. Reduces ground movement to a minimum. Can be thrown very straight throughout the whole flight if momentum is forward and not to the side. It's also great in crosswinds with some caveats of course.

Lesson - Nose up

1

Lesson - Nose up

Let's check what we mean by talking about the nose of the disc and what does it mean when we talk about "nose up" -angle. This is the easiest way to produce maximum lift. It can be used to our advantage in low ceiling and uphill putting, but it can also provide distance control when needed. It also catches the most area when hitting the basket.

Exercise - Nose Up

Exercise - Nose Up

Now we practice the nose up angle. The key is to use the top of the grip to brush against the disc and the bottom to equalize the pressure between the fingers. It can be done with or without pop. Starting from as close to flat as possible increase the nose angle 5 times to effectively cover the spread of nose up angles in practice. The idea is to study this in neutral conditions and learn how the disc behaves in these situations. Note where we are most effective. Practice flat and level as well to have the nose up straight flight as a reference.

Lesson - Nose down

1

Lesson - Nose down

What does "nose down" mean? It is the opposite to nose up, so effectively the nose of the disc is pointing down no the release. It has the least amount of lift and it requires the maximum effort to get the disc go forward. It's mostly used in getting up and over objects. Also downhill putts produce this angle naturally. Tall people might have more nose down putting style. It also will go downwards towards the basket after hitting the chains.

Lesson - Rotation and how it effects the angles

Lesson - Rotation and how it effects the angles

Generally speaking the rotation of the disc stabilizes the flight. Too little rotation makes the disc fade early, or makes it impossible for the disc to fly. Too much rotation stabilizes the flight so much that it will keep the angle that we have put on it. This is just a quick note on the subject and we will return to this later.

Exercise - Wing angle

Exercise - Wing angle

Let's study the wing angles by practicing. It's important to know how the wing angle changes the flight, so we do this exercise without the basket to be able to study the flight in a neutral setting. We cover the spread by having 3 different angles and learn the behavior of our putters through these angles. This might feel unnecessary but the point is to learn to use our putter to the maximum efficiency so a base study will help us to understand the finer details of how the wing angle effects the flight.
