5.5 Different Reasons To Practice Putting In Disc Golf

The post: 5.5 different reasons to practice putting in disc golf on Jack Trageser's Rattlin' Chains blog is good reading as are many of his posts. Jack describes this post as not "about what kind of routine yields the best results, or which routine makes it the most fun or interesting. This is all about helping you to understand the many reasons it’s worth the while." That it is.

The five 5.5 different reasons Trageser states in the post are
    1. Getting better & scoring better
    2. Confidence
    2.5 Stress reduction/emotional energy conservation
    3. The inverted pyramid effect on shot selection
    4. Psychological warfare (but the pacifist kind
    5. Muscle memory

The post contains a lot of good thoughts. One that resonated with me is the famous Bobby Jones quote: "Disc golf is a played largely within your own mind as it’s just you against the course and the elements." I strongly believe that and have believed it from the first time I played disc golf.

I believe you'll find some good stuff, too, if you read this Rattlin' Chains post.
