Putting Form Breakdown

Foundation Disc Golf puts their putting form to the test as Hunter and Zach tackle one of Zach's biggest challenges: his putting. With the help of a perfect Pup 360 score as a baseline, they break down Zach's form and identify key areas for improvement. The first topic addressed is stance, where Zach's staggered stance is adjusted to create a wider, more balanced position, which helps counteract pulling with his arm motion. Additionally, Hunter discusses the importance of grip alignment when lining up to putt, aiming to minimize wobble on Zach's putts, which often results in fluttering finishes. By adjusting Zach's hand position during the putting stroke, they hope to introduce more spin and pop to his putts. Through these drills and techniques, viewers can apply learnings to their own putting form, helping them improve their accuracy and consistency.

hey guys hunter and zach here with foundation disc golf and today we're finally tackling the issue that is zach's putting and so what we're gonna do what we're gonna do is basically we're gonna break down his putting form figure out a few different drills and hopefully teach you guys some things that you can apply to your own putting as well so let's go ahead and jump into it we went ahead and did a perfect pup 360 is like a baseline test his score on that was 100 and so during that i kind of evaluated his form we'll show you a few videos as i'm talking about it and we're going to work on what to change so let's jump into it all right so the first thing we're going to work on is his stance so go ahead and line up like you're about to put okay so in general so he's obviously a staggered stance putter uh so what i'm about to say applies to that and not if you're a straddle putter just keep that in mind so you're going to go ahead and make your stance a little bit wider so bring your left foot maybe to about here all that's going to do is going to help his arm motion going forward because one thing that zach struggles with a lot is pulling right and a big part of that this cause is when your feet get too close together then your arm motion there's nothing to counter your arm motion swinging out so by bringing your leg out when you kick back it counters your arm motion to help it be a little bit straighter um so another thing that we're going to change is go ahead and line your grip up like you're going to put so one thing that we also noticed was a lot of zach's putts and this could be true for you as well come out with a little bit of wobble they don't have a lot of spin or pop on them so that makes where they come out they're kind of fluttering sometimes so what we're going to do to change that is move your hand let me just see this we're going to move his hand from here on the disc to the top so what that's going to allow is when...
