Improve Your Forehand With These 9 Tips and Tricks!

In this week’s Three Minute Thursday I’ll be going over how to improve your forehand throw while playing disc golf.
This video is tailored more towards the beginner and intermediate player or even the advanced player that has never tried to teach themselves how to forehand.
I believe the forehand is one of the most important and “stroke-saving” skill that a player can possess especially if their playing in primarily wooded areas that require tricky scramble shots.
I hope you’re able to find value in at least one of these tips and if you do make sure to leave a comment letting me know how it helped!

[@DiscGolfHunter]

This is one of the best forehand tutorials i've seen; simple explanation, and practical application. Well done sir!!

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Thank you Hunter!

[@toddedwards103]

I like the fact that you told us to work on a 200 to 250’ Forehand. That gives me confidence of an obtainable goal as opposed to thinking I have to learn to throw a 400’ Forehand. Great advice. Thank You

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Great takeaway 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@QactisX]

400' forehands are for people who have really mastered the form and have a cannon of a wrist, I would even argue to learn 50-250 foot forehand. Sometimes a flick is good even from super short upshot distances

[@DailyDiscGolf]

That’s a great goal for the beginner / average player to have. It will definitely help shave strokes and do more help than harm to learn

[@brickchains1]

There are only a few pros that can forehand 400 feet, and there are some that could but don't, because it's not good for your arm. There's a reason sidearm is rare in baseball, and pitchers get Tommy John's all the time anyway...

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Thanks for the feedback i hope you were able to implement some of the tips!

[@JohnnyD5]

I agree 100% with tip number 5. The speed of your throw should slowly build from reach back to release with most of the speed coming from the last 25% or less of the follow through of the throw. Great tip!

[@HaikesXO]

This was perfect. especially the part where you mention to go slow from your reach back right until you go over the hip for the snap. People always miss this part and it leads to very unpredictable throws without it

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Great takeaway Haikes, it’s a very crucial tip that gets overlooked a lot !

[@smp1396]

Like others, your case for a scramble forehand just made sense to me when I watched this video a couple months ago. Even RHBH ace run machine James Conrad flicks out of trouble. Now I use FH off the tee on some par 3s when the turnover line isn't as good. Thanks!

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Awesome feedback!! Thanks for that and I’m glad that you’ve been able to implement it into your game 😁

[@kalyngriffin1518]

Absolutely great advice. I am currently forehand dominant with my game, easily reaching 350' and only getting about 300' with my backhand at the moment. Im starting to use backhand off the tie the majority of the time now because, well, its about time I work on bettering my technique. But one thing that I have over most of my backhand dominant friends is my scramble and flick approach shots. I recommend a Firebird for forehand approach in the 50'-150' range. It feels very comfortable for forehand and the over stability give you amazing dependability. One thing to note: you'll start to realize that only certain discs will feel right for throwing forehand, especially midrange and putt/approach discs. So find a midrange that feels comfortable to flick and that will hold a nice anhyzer line.

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Awesome feedback Kalyn! Glad you’re finding success in the flick as thats similar to how I started playing. Big forehand anhyzer flex shots to get my distance and didnt have much of a backhand for a few years. I throw primarily Discmania so my firebird is the FD3 which I loved for a long time and even aced with but replaced recently with my dark maul 2, still a bit back and forth between them. Keep it up! 👏🏼👏🏼

I now have a nice Forehand that actually passes my BH in distance thanks for the video 👍

[@markvankoeverden3368]

Thanks for this, good stuff! Subscribed right away. The tips on serving a wine glass and not ripping the back swing are maybe the best ones for me, after watching at least 10 forehand tutorials from various channels I am still struggling a lot, often the disc wobbles like crazy or worse; even with an overstable disc my throw often flips and crashes within 25 meter. This is so bad that my forehand is basically unusable, except for a tiny scramble. Maybe I am trying to hard. If you have any additional suggestions they are most welcome!!

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Just keep trying new things and new angles until you find what works for you! Forehand technique is so tricky to get down, i appreciate the support and feedback Mark!

[@erickortenhoeven3403]

Good vid 👍 I was consciously focusing on the loose wrist, tight elbow stuff in today's round after watching the first 3/4 of the video. It seemed to help. I definitely noticed more consistent spin on my forehands today, correlated with being aware of my wrist tension. You should do a 3 minute Thursday solely focused on the scrambliest of scrambles. i.e. thumber rollers, tight wooded thumbers/tomahawks (which direction do each end again? I always forget), turbos, chicken wings, etc. Heck, thumber roller/grenade/turbo putt/basketball putt only challenge?

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Great idea Eric, and I’m glad that you’ve implemented the tips right away and found some progression! Keep it up!

[@evanstanek5838]

Great vid! Not sure if I missed it, but planning the ground action is big too, you can get further around a corner, or avoid unwanted skip off of a downslope by proper disc type and throw type. Topics I need some tips on are spin, push, and step putting. I'm really really really really bad at any and all putting forms.

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Thanks for the feedback Evan! We could allllll use work on the putting green that’s forsure, I’ll keep it in mind! My first ever 3min Thursday was actually based around how you can improve your practice putting session so go back and check that out! All the way back in January I think

[@daltonharkey932]

Mannnn. My friends turned me on to disc golf last month so I'm very new, and they use stack grip and it feels awkward as heck, didn't even know pistol grip existed. 😅 a literal game changer. thank you so much sir, you've got my subscription and support

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Appreciate it!! The forehand can be great when you’re new because it’s easier to get distance out of overstable drivers on flex shots than it is trying to throw the same driver on a backhand line.

[@freshgrooves8934]

The stacked grip seems to help with power throws. The pistol grip gives more control. Great helper video. You are right it is extremely hand to have some decent forehand in your bag. I started out doing both forehand and backhand. Had more control with backhand so stopped forehand. Bad decision. Try to get my forehand back has been tough. Thanks again for sharing. Keep up the good work.

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Thanks for the feedback Brian, get that forehand back and start shaving a few scramble strokes off each round again!

[@jaholden4]

just rewatched this, lots of good stuff here thanks. for me i throw LHBH but throw baseballs, shoot basketballs etc righty so the lefty flick is pretty unnatural for me. honestly just watching you do that standstill scramble shot is pretty helpful. little bit of hip turn, no backswing and not a lot of follow through and the disc goes effortlessly far. i'm gonna practice really short flicks to get the feeling down before i can add any power with hips/runup.

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Love it dude thanks for the feedback! Keep me in the loop with how things progress and if it helps you get out of trouble in your future rounds

[@allenhuffman3380]

Im new to forehands. Im on my 50's so I try to watch all these videos. It's still pretty much nonexistent (my forehand). So always willing to try new stuff. Thanks a lot.

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Learning a forehand can be really tough, don’t beat yourself up over it if you can’t pick it up right away. Try overstable flex shots where you don’t even throw the disc that hard but you force it on a very steep anhyzer angle and throw it kinda high in the air so it has time to fight out, or on the other spectrum you could try very understable on more of a hyzer flip shot but you’ll have to really spin it if you want to do that. Even having a 100-200’ scramble forehand will help shave a few strokes off every round

[@timh8976]

I’m 53 and anytime I’ve ever tried a forehand it sucked bad. After watching this video I tried the wine glass analogy and the slow start with my 12&13 speed understable drivers I had sitting on the rack. they work great for me on FH. My average BH is 180-190 very few over 220’. In 2 days my average FH is probably 200 with several 240-250’ with a lot less effort than BH.. and it felt great to use long FH shots on the course.

[@adriantoledo7804]

Great tips. Suggestions how to throw a high turnover. Like over a tree. Light vs Heavy weight discs. Under stable vs Stable vs. overstable discs.

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Usually neutral because you’ll want it to fight back at the end still, if not maybe slightly overstable and really rip it over, anything understable being thrown that high won’t be consistent in flight. I usually don’t think much about weight of disc, most in my bag are max weight

[@aaronboyd55x]

[@benharrison5816]

Good tips. My problems are, trying to throw too hard like I'm trying to skip a rock as far as I can, and just not practicing forehands enough. My backhand is just way better. I need to do some forehand-only rounds with some mids and focus on getting a clean release and good snap with easy throws.

[@DailyDiscGolf]

Honestly not everyone needs the forehand off the tee, as long as you work it in to be able to throw the upshots needed in certain scramble situations that alone will help shave a few strokes. Really try to keep your palm up through the snap and follow through

[@mingaling72]

Great stuff bro! Anyone can have a 250ft flick with a little practice. I don't know how many times a 200ft flick got me out of a tough up-shot. The average disc golf player, at least on my local courses, throws either or and I just don't get it...
