@rickdinicola2 жыл бұрын
OK, I watched the first three minutes of this video and immediately realized I had the first problem. I went outside to throw into my net. This tip not only immediately improved my forehand, but also my backhand and put if you believe it. The real issue is wrist role. If your wrist is at a different angle than your forearm, as you move forward you have to roll your wrist in order to release the disc along the path of momentum you have established. This does no necessarily result in a bad throw, but it introduces an unnecessary timing issue. If you are early with the wrist role you turn the disc over. If you are late you slice away to the right (right handers). Keeping the disc on the same line as the forearm results in a more controlled release and I actually felt an increase in power. I was doing the same thing with my put, rolling my wrist at the release point. When I focused on keeping the disc in the same angle as the forearm I felt what I have on every good put I have ever thrown. Great video, the rest of the issues were not as impactful for me but if you are doing any one of them and you fix it, you will see immediate improvement.

Ok Overthrow, here is the deal. I have been playing disc golf for 27 years. I have always been a short backhand thrower, only playing 5-10 times per year with the same group of friends. It wasn't until I started paying more attention to the scene, pro tournaments, local clubs, etc during the last two years that I realized that throwing long is somewhat standard with experienced players. I spent the last year grinding away determined to get better with absolutely zero progress. No improved distance and no improved accuracy. I played with two people, including a new player, that threw forehand last week. I was amazed at how this new player just slung it out there. So today I decided that I am now a forehand player. Was planning to go to a course this afternoon, so watched this video first. Felt ok the first back 9 on the shorter holes, actually overthrew some. But by the 16th as I really had to air it out, it all seemed to come together, culminating in two (downhill) 380ft throws that were nothing like I had done before. My last 5 drives were over 300ft and in 27 years I had thrown a backhand over 300ft 0 times. I am a little too scattered of a person to stick too a schedule and practice the same thing over and over. This video with just quick, important tips was brief enough to make sense to me. I still am pinching myself and feel I need to get back out there, but I definitely had enough great throws that I know they are in me. Thanks for the clear, concise, and reasoned coaching tips. Much appreciated.

I throw 1-fingered (index) forehand about 350'. The main difference between 2 and 1 fingered is the extra torque you can get with the wrist. The release is higher as well (just below the shoulder or shoulder height), which helps for throwing uphill or over trees. 1 fingered also allows you to anny by pulling your arm and shoulder across your body at the end of the throw. I am able to anny with the most stable plastic (elite Z Force with 0 turn). Front- to -target is a must for the 1 fingered flick.

Point number seven is the most critical for me. I get what you are saying. Being a somewhat beefy guy, I am always too stiff, always trying to overpower the disc, and going nowhere. The trick for me is being loose in arm and body, but maintaining a firm grip that gets the flick, but doesn't have the disc slipping out of my hand early.

For number 7, another option would be doing some long-toss drills from baseball. They just don’t work unless you’re keeping your arm loose. Teaches you what it’s supposed to feel like with a disc. I need to work on #6. I transfer my weight to the front foot, but could probably get a bit more power by bringing that trailing leg all the way through. I throw around 325 - 350. I’ve gotten near 400 a few times. I would love to be able to do it regularly.

Great concise clinic! The timing of opening the shoulders before snapping the wrist is what I think naturally fixes the pushing you're referring to. Tip #8: practice with slower, understable discs until you get a feel how a proper hyzer flip forehand feels. Wrenching over on firebirds and fast discs is a legitimate golf play when the shot shape calls for it, but it won't open up nearly as many shot shapes as being able to forehand every disc in your bag.

For sure he is one of the best forehand throwers ever. The guy is an absolute beast. As for the discrepancy there are a few components. First, check out his footwork. He flares his right foot out to the right and his hips turn away from the target. So what he says is different than what he does on that front. Not surprising since he is probably super intuitive on the forehand side. Second, what are other good forehand players doing? Are they walking straight forward or do they flair that foot and turn the hip? Again, I have massive respect for Scott and what he has accomplished on both the coaching and playing fronts.

Great video! So kind of unique question; how much do you think wrist mobility affects forehand snap and overall distance potential? I ask because I am physically unable to bend my wrist back to the near 90 degree angle most people can accomplish. My wrist bends closer to a 40-45 degree. I've worked on every single point I can possibly think of for better forehand distance, and my max consistent distance is maybe 130-150ft. Even then, I feel like I'm having to nearly rip my shoulder off to generate enough power for that distance. I've never felt any significant snap in my wrist. I'd gladly send you a video/pic of what my wrists do if you're interested. Just think it's a unique issue that I've never heard anyone else really voice. Thanks!

I started playing disc golf with the forearm throw and after a couple of years I became quite adept at it -much better than my backhand throw. Then mysteriously one season it was gone - all gone - my discs just agugered into ground or stuck into the brush. I could not get my winning form back. I followed advice and tips of many KZbin videos to no avail. It feels like my arm just locks up and the harder I try to flick that disc out, the crazierr it flys.

On number 7, how similar is “pushing” to what Stokely describes as “the arm moving faster than the hand”? The point he goes on to emphasize, as I understand it, is that we don’t get forehand power by simply getting the arm to move faster, but by loading everything so that the last motion is the hand snapping through. So, his tip to fix it was simply “the hand needs to move faster than the arm”. That could be something that’s simply promoting the feeling of the snap, rather than whether it’s actually possible to move the hand slower than the arm, but it seems like a helpful tip.

Got to disagree on the walk up. Scott Stokley’s technique teaches a straight walk up and I see more and more pros doing it. You used baseball as an analogy but mostly from a pitching perspective. The crow hop from the outfield into home is a good example of the power generated from a straight walk up. SS teaches your legs facing forward while your upper body coiling makes your abdominals a spring to generate power. I switched up my forehand form to his technique two years ago and I instantly saw more distance and it has only gotten better with practice. Love all your vids, just don’t agree with that assessment and think there’s nothing wrong (and a lot of things right) with a straight walk up when other things in the form are done right.
@OverthrowDiscGolf2 жыл бұрын
Respect the way you disagreed. I would argue that SS actually turns his right foot away from the target as well as his hips during the last stride. In other words, he doesn’t do exactly as he teaches. Which isn’t an issue in and of itself

So don't push the disc, drag it like a discus or take a resistance band/rope and attach to something solid & stable and pull it for practice.

Whenever I walk straight forward and casually forehand a disc...it's the best forehand I've ever thrown. Bout to just forget that throw exists lmao.

Super informative and good video, but I'm still wondering if you can make a "left arm analyze" over Simon lizotte and Drew Gibson or some other pro?

We have one of those but will probably do another at some point

For beginners I would say stop running up. Focus on angle control and release point. Sidearm is much less dependant on run up. Another big one: don't expect to throw stable discs like Firebirds and Destroyers right away. Start with Wraith and Balls. You're gonna strain your body a lot more throwing stable discs and if you don't have good form your going to be in pain.
