Ah Phuck

Well, if I keep on playing the way I did today, I might as well just hand over Easterns and NJ States to CHS.

Lets start with the good points of my playing today:
Got a pretty sick layout D
I got some really nice low throws

... that's it. Alright, on to the bad points:
I am still not making full eye contact with my thrower and I'm concentrating on the mark too much, resulting in a crappy breakmark throw. Also, I've taken Ryan's tips in terms of pivoting and putting my weight on my front leg, and it works, but the problem is that... I still have to think about these things during the game. Like it'll take a while for me to have these things come naturally. Also, BRIAN LI NO GOOD IN WIND. My hucks are really good without wind, but if theres a breeze, then it'll probably OI like hell.

If I can sky and layout D anybody, but I can't handle the disc well, that means I've got nothing but athleticism under my belt. For me to be an all around good player, I need a lot more work.

I have to perfect everything before the season even starts. I've got a hell lot of work to do.

It takes a lot of practice to cultivate the muscle memory needed for you to play the game without thinking. Until you can throw all your throws (breaks, various release points, hucks, etc) without thinking, don't worry too much if you have to focus on it. Just focus on the throw you're making, not all the ones in the past.
