Dude Nate, I have to say I have been struggling with sidearm technique for a long time. This video helped so much! At first I didn't want to do the Crow Hop for some reason, I'm not sure why. I tried that today, and I was so much more consistent! I am definitely adopting your Technique LOL thanks man
@hdtvguys15906 жыл бұрын
I've been throwing sidearm/forehand many years using the simple (walk up: right, left, right, left) technique. Changing to Sexton's 'hop' technique adds much more power, flight height control, release angle control and consistent distance. I'm 63 and throw 8 of 10 practice shots 360' +. Study the hop in Sexton's other videos too. It's not hard to get it down in a couple of days.
@caseysmith5446 жыл бұрын

Finally a tutorial that takes into account that we all are different with different finger lengths and step styles due to just our basic anatomy differences. Great job, my first mistakes when learning to throw forehand was to follow too strictly to instructions, same with backhand especially with grip when I got short fingers. With backhand if I followed the generally instructed powergrip too strictly, I would always get nose up with the disc.

Forehand is one of the hardest things to learn in my opinion. I just cannot do the 2 finger thing, its so very uncomfortable. I can do short technical shots but can only do it with one finger underneath. For a lefty like me i think a good forehand can do wonders, most courses arent set up for us.
@3drumsticks5 жыл бұрын
I agree with everything you said. I'm a lefty too. My local courses require lots of power forehand hyzers that turnover shots can't really deliver on. It takes a lot of consistent work to get a solid forehand throw. I'm still working on angle control after 1 year!

I throw exclusively forehand; I can play backhand almost as well, but being a former college level baseball pitcher(never played but had several scholarships offers), almost all the mechanics of a baseball pitch is how you should throw your forehand shots. Once you start to throw your forehand shots with that idea, you'll never have a sore arm. I never have a sore arm after a round of disc. ANOTHER thing is warming up, and strectching, EVERY other sport you'd go play at a high level you stretch and warm up first, do 15 mins of stretching short burts of running lunges and so forth while putting warming up, gurantee you'll drop 2 strokes immediately.

ive been playing for about 3 months now weekly. a strong grip yet a loose wrist; all you have to do is keep your thumb in the right spot. your elbow should be right below the hand and you should be coming through with your arm acting like a robot, keep it flat and smooth. just like the backhand
