Can More Spin Add Distance Without More Arm Speed I Tested It?

Does more disc golf spin actually add distance without increasing arm speed? I tested a wrist-curl timing change with TechDisc to see if more RPM could help me throw farther without throwing harder. Earlier TechDisc testing showed that at 59.9 mph, I was averaging 1,074 RPM — almost exactly the 1,072 RPM median for that speed group. My disc golf spin rate didn't appear to be low. So I wanted to answer a different question: if I increase my spin while keeping roughly the same arm speed, will I actually gain distance? Using a wrist technique from Overthrow Disc Golf, I compared my normal early curl with a later curl — starting neutral and loose, letting the wrist move inward later, and allowing it to uncurl through the hit. TECHDISC RESULTS Early Curl: 58.7 MPH | 1,056 RPM Late Curl: 57.9 MPH | 1,128 RPM Spin Change: +72 RPM Then I took the change to the field to see whether the extra disc golf spin actually translated into distance. 3-THROW FIELD CHECK Normal: 339 FT AVG Late Curl: 353 FT AVG Distance Change: +14 FT This is a small field test, not proof that more spin automatically gives every disc golfer more distance. But in this test, I increased my spin without increasing my throwing speed and gained 14 feet. For Masters disc golf players, that's what I'm interested in: getting more from the arm speed we already have instead of simply trying to throw harder. Did you get more distance? Did you get more control? Did it take more effort? Don't chase RPM just because you can make the number higher. The goal isn't a better number. It's a better throw. I've tested disc golf arm speed, nose angle, and now spin. Next I'm testing another part of the distance equation: am I actually throwing the right speed disc for my arm? 🥏 WATCH THE FULL DISTANCE AFTER 40 SERIES:    • Disc Golf Distance After 40: The Arm Speed...   If you're a Masters player looking to play smarter and play longer, that's the playlist I'd start with.
