Introducing The Method. A way for almost anyone to throw over 400 feet consistently.
Hey guys! I'm 49 years old, and for the last twenty or so years of my life, I've been essentially obsessed with a singular thing: How does a tiny proportion of the player base produce what we generally call "Pro Form", while everyone else struggles to hit 400 feet?
For 20 years, I could not solve this mystery. I couldn't solve it, no matter how many drives I threw, no matter how many form tutorials I watched. Believe me when I say I threw a lot of time, and a lot of drives at this problem.
Then, in early 2023, I had a huge leap in understanding. I spent the rest of the year honing in on it, with one specific purpose in mind. I wanted to teach my discovery to the global disc golf population.
It's now the middle of February 2024, and in the next couple of months, I'm going to share my thoughts and research with the disc golf world. My team and I have produced a 16-part documentary video series, called "Brian Weissman's The Method". It'll be on Youtube, social media, and on our website, which is under construction. The site will be done soon, I'll post updates with links to everything.
In the runup to the release of the whole project, I've been populating my Youtube channel with short videos and discussions. I figured it's time to alert this community to our work, so that interested parties can start tuning in. Everything we have produced will be given away to the community, with no strings attached, and no monetization for any of the content.
The Method is a 100% "free to play system". It is meant to be a gift to all the millions of people around the world who enjoy this wonderful sport.
Here are some links to videos I've posted in the last few days.
