Recently I came home from a disc golf weekend with 5 of my friends. We spent 3 days at a disc golf mecca in High Bridge, Wisconsin. We played over 150 holes and spent a fair amount of time looking for our discs that went astray in the woods. I will tell you that my arm was a little sore but I was able to enjoy every minute of my time out in God’s country playing a game that I like very much.
What I noticed is that distance is not as important as knowing how to putt. If you can putt in 30ft putts consistently you can greatly improve your game and impress your friends. Here are a few tips that I hope will improve your putting game.
Your putting grip
Your focus
The sweet spot
With your grip you need to have all 4 fingers under the disc with your thumb up on top. Make sure you have a good firm grip from top to bottom. When practicing your putting get a friend and spread out 30ft and throw as straight as you can to each other. Do this over and over to get comfortable with throwing to that person so when the person catches your disc, he or she is not moving the body left or right.
Now that you have that done the next thing is to keep your focus on the basket and not on things that are happening around you. Turn 45 degrees from the target and judge the distance. Once you have the distractions out of your mind focus now on the sweet spot until you don’t see anything else. I try to focus on the right chain and then pick a chain link to hit. That particular chain link is your sweet spot. Before you throw, imagine your throw going into the basket. Hit that sweet spot and put it in to the chains. CaChing!
Those are just a few tips to improve your disc golf game so grip it and let it rip.
Why Graphic Design Is So Important For Your Business?
There are many ways to build an online or offline business and there are many tools that work to do that. The internet is an amazing tool to do that with. One thing that many oversee is the graphic design and layout of your look and brand of your business. Good graphic design is one tool that is a definite area that you need to succeed in this world. There are different aspects of what good graphic design is and some of it is very objective but what I can tell you is that typography, layout and the use of colors is very important.
Typography When you see good design you know it is easy on the eyes and is very readable. That brings me to talk about typography. Choosing the right font is essential to anyone that wants to brand themselves. For example look at the company Sears: They use a font with a line through all the letters with the slogan: “Life. Well spent.” That’s all they did to brand themselves was the use of good typography. That my friend is good graphic design. There are many great examples like Craftsman, Kenmore and Panasonic that have done very similar designs.
Layout Layout can be a complicated part of design. Layout is really what makes or breaks a good design. If the layout is eye catching and easy to read then you know you got a good design. Suppose you see a design that catches your eye that is simple and to the point with very little distractions. You know what I am talking about right? Something that grabs your attention and you start reading or you are just amazed at the shear beauty of the colors or simplicity of the layout.
Colors With colors you want to use colors that compliment each other. Colors are mostly used to attract your eye so when you design something use colors that will go well with your design. Lets say you have a logo that has the colors yellow and black. When you begin to create a web-page, newsletter, flyer or business card for instance you would want to incorporate your colors from your logo. You would not want to use different colors like red and white. I know this sounds simple but if you don’t know what good graphic design is then you may just like to put a plethora of colors together. Remember just to keep it simple and attractive for your customers.
You need good design as it is what will set you apart in your business. Fill out the form and let me help you create a pleasing design that will attract your customers.
