Scott Stokely, you can get these from the Wright Life I believe.
Has anyone seen the Heave H.O.E. video?

This is prolly going to sound silly, but watching the 03 usdgc video constantly has greatly improved my game. Constantly watching the pros works. Plus the music is cool and it is non stop action (The sudden death playoff has got to be the greatest contest ever held in DG).

I agree with the post above ... the USDGC '03 DVD is a great one to watch. I've watched is soooo many times now. I always find it inspirational, and educational to watch.
Scott Stokely's videos are ok. Some good basic lessons that will help you get started. Worth the money if you are a beginner for sure. Although once you reach an intermediate level, you will want MUCH more.
I wish Blake_T would put out an instructional DVD ... His methods (and those of the other writers who contribute to his site), have helped more than anything else I have read or seen. To see them in action would be a valuable resource to the disc golf community, and sport.
I agree - the 2003 USDGC dvd is more than worth the $$. The playoff is simply amazing, and there is lots of good footage on the dvd. I have learned a lot about putting from using slow motion and watching the pros. I would also recommend checking out other DVDs like the Marshall Street dvd - this one also has lots of good players on it, along with some highlights like best shots, best putts etc. Also, you might want to look at some of National Tour dvds.. they include coverage of most of the big tournaments (kansas city wide open, the memorial etc.)
I have not watched the stokely videos, but I have heard from others that they are not worth the money. I would try to find a local pro and contact him/her. The best way to learn is to play with a pro (they will give you some good tips) or just simply watch them in action.
I watched some Stokeley videos but I think Hollywood still has a lock on the adult entertainment industry. What is coming out of Colorado will always be second rate, regardless of how much "D" he has.
