DUCT TAPING MY DISC BEFORE EVERY THROW

Ned tries to revolutionize his golf game by duct taping his disc before every throw in a hilarious and entertaining experiment. The results are surprisingly unpredictable, as he discovers that the added weight of the tape completely alters the aerodynamics of the disc. Despite initial optimism, Ned quickly realizes that the tape is not conducive to skipping or achieving high speeds. Instead, it makes the disc fly erratically and with an overstable motion, making it difficult to control. The experiment also highlights the limitations of using duct tape as a grip aid, showcasing its tendency to split and lose adhesion. Despite the setbacks, Ned's enthusiasm and humor keep viewers engaged throughout the video, which offers a unique glimpse into the world of disc golf and the creative solutions (and failures) that come with it.
