But before all this can happen, you must first tee off. Two things you will want to pay special attention to: the angle of the disc in relation to the ground, and the point in the arc of your arm’s motion that you release it at.
First, in direct contrast to a putt, you want the disc to be about forty-five degrees or so short of straight up and down. Not perpendicular to the ground… but close. And the same rules apply for tee shots that apply to drives regarding positions of your hands, wrists, etc.
But to tee off, I mean really full-on, take no prisoners-type tee off, you’ll want to start a wind-up five or six steps back, and keep in mind which is the forward foot, and which the rear. The position of your forward foot determines the general direction the disc will go; but it is pushing off against the rear foot that provides the power.
And power is only useful when it can be controlled. I’ve seen some very long tees go in some very wrong directions, and every single one was due to a lack of control at the point of release. Release it too soon, and it mows down some grasses about fifteen feet in front of you. But if you release it too late, it’ll go way up high, but not very far.
Altitude eats distance, and if it tilts at the end of a high hover, it’s going to go very far to one side or the other. So, learning the “sweet spot” in the arc of your swing, which will minimize unnecessary altitude while maximizing forward force transferred to the disc, is the only thing you need to do to develop a “monster tee”.
And when you develop that, you’ve already mastered the precision required in putting, and the power required to drive. After that, only one step remains…
