Much better than the FH Review. Couple notes, IMO there is nothing wrong with all fingers under the wing, feels more powerful and control to me and I don't like having the ring and pinky in the way of the disc. I don't try to spin the hammer, just release it like pounding a nail or tossing it, it will spin, and IMO nothing wrong with a heavier hammer or short sledgehammer. kzbin.info/www/bejne/boaTYYmDpL6hgLM#t=1m3s

This is teaching is PERFECTION. You obviously have great bedside manner. I'd say I would like a few closeups to hone in on the grip/foot placement, elbow tuck. But thats maybe just me. Very very well done, and I actually appreciate the length of the video. Something as complicated as the forehand deserves a proper explanation.

This guy makes an excellent coach. I like the fact that he emphasises feel in the shot too. A lot of people have trouble because they get tense, so trying to establish feel means you'll be comfortable and throw loose, which is what you want.

It's an old video but can I just say a huge thank you. I couldn't throw a forehand, no matter what I did, it went 20ft tops. Just spent 20 mins down the park waiting for the kids and was flicking 150ft. Wobbly still, need to work the hammer and spin, but what a difference, a video watch, 15 mins just practicing grip and flick in the house. Can't wait to see teh improvement as the wrist strengthens and the form improves. Will be watching part 2 when I can stop the wobble!!

So I'm a tennis pro by trade aka "tennis teacher" and my job is literally to explain biomechanical advantages to people but in as simple of a way as possible and this guy does a great job with that. I am going to take this tips out to the field and try them out. I am relatively new to disc golf and have only been playing for 6 months but I am for now a forehand dominant player and there isn't a ton of specific info out there on how to train a forehand. There are plenty of videos saying this is how this pro does it but they don't go over many drills you can do to practice them. I just want to say from one athletic pro to another thank you for the video. I think this may be the most helpful so far. Great job man

I wish more people would do tutorials like this by having someone that isnt very experienced in the throw and teaching them step by step. its easy to tell someone what to do and then repeat it yourself as you already have it down but i feel like showing someone of my skill level what to do and then trying it out helps that much more. I would like to see even someone more inexperienced though that has virtually no forehand at all and see how that goes but great video.

Nice comprehensive explanation of throwing forehand, you've demonstrated the grip better than anyone else I've seen. The "hammer drill" I've seen in another video from someone in the UK and he had another drill that helped me feel that snap. You take your grip, hold the disc straight out and then drop it straight down and pull it back up as quick as you can. When you get comfortable doing that than you lift the disc up at the start with the angle on your wrist and do the same thing. I would do a few of those before I threw the disc, I wound up throwing longer than my backhand using very little arm motion. Still working on it as the feeling is intermittent but I'll get there some day. Been playing a ~4 - 5 months. One thing to note about the hammer throw is to lead with the handle - just like you teach someone swinging a baseball bat.

First of all, this was an excellent tutorial, to answer your pinned question. I wrote down all the key elements (okay, I probable missed one or more) and went to the local park and made tremendous progress, considering today was day one of forehand. I used mostly stable mids, as the drivers kept bombing out like my backhand did at the start. But I have full confidence that if I add this to my regular fieldwork I will soon (in a few weeks?) take the forehand to the disc course. In short, I find your teaching method very effective. Thank you, sir!

All great advice. I may be an outlier but my ring finger and pinky finger do not touch the disc. I feel like that inhibits snap just a tiny bit. Everything else is as you described. I have great angle control and what I would consider to be an elite forehand touching distances out around 475’ with halo destroyers. Focus is always on snapping the wrist forward and not letting the nose get up.

Personally, I prefer 10 minute videos. With that being said I believe the energy created is momentum. You can’t just explode, both back hand and sidearm, at the start of the throw. You got to work up to it depending on the pace of your run up and how far you want to throw. Just like the pivot on the backhand throw is momentum management the hit for the sidearm is the same in that your managing and adding momentum. Any jerky movements and spike in effort can throw off momentum. Instead, only add to the momentum and guide it.

Ugh, Josh's before is already 100x better than my forehand. Been working on a forehand throw all season here. Took some notes and went out this evening, still trash, but maybe there was some improvement. Its like my wrist just doesn't snap - get a slow wobble out 80 feet and then it just fades out. Been a backhand thrower for almost 40 years, so a forehand might take some time. Watching the video again, going to go out again tomorrow. Going to get it sometime.

Thanks for your videos man. I know these been out for a while but this has by far been the best info. I’ve been playing disc golf for about 2 months now. 12 rounds and 6 times on a field and watched the first of your backhands video last night and went out today and went from throwing about 200 feet to about 320 feet and just the sound difference was amazing. That spin off the index and thumb just clicked so much. So I came back for the forehand videos because mine is awful lol. I am super wobbly, short and go back and forth from high, wobbly and big left to right and just spiking it l, going straight left. A big question I have is how much finger manipulation do you with the index and middle fingers at the release? Or do your fingers not really move at all?

Would there be any advantage to using a small 1.25 to 2.5 lb barbell weight instead of the hammer? I'm thinking you could grip it more like the disk, but don't know if losing leverage from the hammer handle is good or bad for drill purposes. It will also be more difficult to see rotation of the barbell disc, but a tape or paint stripe should take care of that issue.

I found that in some cases I feel much more the snap on the two fingers on the inside rim; other times I feel more the passing of the disc on the part of the palm at the base of the thumb (I found that the name of this part is Thenar eminence) and also in this second case I feel more the 'cooperation' of the entire hand to the throw and a lower strain. What could be the cause of the difference between these two sensations?

@@albertoquagliaroli4230 not entirely sure to be honest with you. Obviously it could be coming out different but what usually happens in sports is that your body only realizes one feeling at a time. For example, maybe you focused on how your hand felt on one throw and your body didn’t give you the mental feedback of how the hand felt. The important thing is finding out which feeling gets your body to do the right thing when you focus on it

Hey Josh, Great content as usual. Do you bring arm back with wrist fully cocked and move forward with a static wrist. It seem like I would get more pop with the wrist forward and then fully cocked at maxed pull back and then flick forward on throw forward. I'm trying to equate it to back hand where if my wrist is loose, then it can kind of bend inward then move outward. I'm trying to stay loose on forehand but I stiffen the arm and then the disc just turns over on anhyser. especially putters. Ugh.

I went to the field tonight to try a forehand. I took out my Undertaker, Raptor, Thrasher and Nuke. I threw 200-250 ft. I have only watched the first video, how long do I practice the steps before I worry about distance. I can throw about the same distance RHBH, with mids as I don't have experience or enough arm speed to throw the above drivers. I also threw a MVP Volt a measured 272ft. Is there a flight number combination that is better for forehand?

One thing I've run into and I've never heard anyone address is how the bottom of the rim fits in my hand. Sometimes the bottom of the rim seems to get stuck in the creases on the edge of my palm. And with wider rims, the disc just doesn't feel secure. Any thoughts on this?

I’d need to see it. Having a hard time visualizing this one. Like the creases on the right side of your palm? Assuming you are right handed

I’m a RHBH dominant player. I’ve tried RHFH but it doesn’t feel comfortable at all. It feels more comfortable to throw with my left. It’s counter intuitive to forehand with my left. What should I do? I throw a ball with my left. Any ideas or suggestions?

Tough one. I know some people that throw two backhands. The issue with two backhands is that it negates the extra reach you get with a forehand. That becomes a problem in trouble situations where it would be best to stretch out right. Maybe try to develop that side of your body. You could swing a baseball bat on that side as a way to develop it. If you feel like you have no chance then you’d have to learn a BH on both sides but see if you can make progress with a little work before ruling it out completely

Interesting way of putting it. It’s like I’m trying to throw a ball with my right hand. I’m a lefty throwing a ball so you can imagine it’s quite weird. I have to rely on anhyzer turnovers for dog leg right shots. Where a right hand forehand would be beneficial. Watching your forehand video was legit. I really mean it when I say your content is spectacular. Truly it is hands down some of the best instructional videos I’ve seen. I came across it from Robbie’s channel. So if I was to start throwing discs to develop a forehand what would be the best? Drivers, putters or mid ranges? I appreciate the help. :)

I tend to get a callous and even a blood blister on the inside of my pointer finger (stacked grip) where the disc rubs on release. Is this common and a natural consequence of the grip?

@@OverthrowDiscGolf Thanks for the quick response. My stacked grip is as you show it. The abrasion area is right wear the rim of the disc sits in my grip. If I push the disc tighter into the webbing it sits slightly off this area. I'll try with that tighter grip.

Hey OT, any advice on what to do when shoulder + elbow hurts when throwing FH? Is it due to incorrect technique or body is not used to throwing that way or my muscles are too weak? Throwing just the ball hurts my shoulder. Do I have to strengthen my whole arm to have bigger muscles that will also protect my joints?

@@OverthrowDiscGolf Just asking, the way you teach FH is to throw FH injury free? Like, are you teaching correct FH technique in your FH videos that get you distance + avoid injuries if possible? I will have to learn FH from scratch and now I'm being very serious about it to avoid injuring myself again. Have to ditch the bad form I had.
