| Cam's Disc Golf Tips |
His Legendary Putting Form
When putting, I drop both knees at same time (like a free throw) and push from my left to right foot. I use minimal arm (a very short stroke) and use mostly body to direct the putt.
Improve Your D: Grip, Run Up and Tempo
I use the power grip on all shots, and do not crimp my fingers while doing this. Use the scissor (or X) step for your run up. If you're right handed, hop from the right to left foot and push off the left, forcing your body and arm through the swing plane, keeping your wrist between 20 to 30 degrees. The tempo of your shot is equally important: start slow at first then accelerate through release.

They are great in the wind. Predators as a whole act pretty true as a flying object. No mater what angle you throw them on (as long as the speed of spin is the same) they will turn the same for each angle.

Lands soft and like a midrange, but much easier to get distance.
