Nate Sexton Disc Golf Clinic - Sidearm

[@pobrob7857]

Nate is the best communicator in disc golf

[@allagoon]

So true - smart, well-spoken, and great at explaining the whys.

[@extantbeats]

100% agree

[@vangfamily3265]

Pro!

Nate Sexton is a great explainer. Gets to the point, great tips, clear and concise language.

[@michaelyahner6695]

how can you not love Nate Sexton, all class and occasionally hilarious.

[@YourGrannysThong]

This is why I love disc golf. The pros are so relatable to all of us, no egos. I’ve played with so many really good players that WON’T help me with any of my questions. I’m all about building the game for all. Any way I can help someone I do.

[@shacklynized]

Not only is this guy one of the all time greats at playing he's also one of the all time greats at teaching the game and commentating on it. So great.

[@topspin0012]

Simple and one of the best sidearm tutorials I have seen.

[@darsure3006]

I've been watching disc golf videos for an hour straight and this guy gave more useful information than the other 20 videos I watched combined. THANK YOU. The tips about wrist movement importance and not trying to learn a straight shot with your weak hand first were both GREAT tips.

[@Jono.]

I'm late to the sport relatively but man I love Nate. Dude is hilarious, well-spoken, and knowledgeable. Plus he still smokes the disc!

[@allagoon]

I saw this vid right after it came out - have a working forehand now, after 6 years playing without one. Thx Nate.

[@ColdToiletSeats]

GOAT of forehands

[@racenuke]

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

[@hdtvguys1590]

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.

[@caseysmith544]

My dad has a not so much a hop as a pitcher windup at that part Nate does the hop to have his disc come out of the hand faster.

[@Javaman92]

Thanks for the tip, I'm 62 and have only been playing since last season. I'm just now deciding that I need to have a forehand, especially since I'm left handed and my home course is not friendly. I will work on the famous Sexton hop. ;-)

[@MrLGJ11]

That's so exciting to hear! I'm only two years into my disc golf career and I hope I can be playing for long long time

[@quazzydiscman]

This is easily one of the most informative and effective tutorials ever made; I've watched most of em on KZbin. Thanks so much for this.

[@TXDanRob]

Great player, impeccable character, great communicator. What's not to like about Nate?

[@ecaldwell888]

Great video. Concise and helpful. Most useful 8 minutes I've spent on KZbin in a long time

[@cliff4991]

This guy. An affable legend.

[@18bigegan]

I have been playing for 9 years and have never really had a reliable forehand game, but been trying to improve it. Watched this video and tried these tips out at home, including the Sexton hop. And can definitely see an improvement in my forehand throws. Can't wait to get it even better and finally have a forehand for my game. Thanks for this video Nate

[@jkirk9803]

Annnnnd this was the forehand video that I needed to see. Simple advice of learning the forehand hyzer and using more flippy discs with wrist speed. When I am a backhand player that is all I really need. Pure Gold.

[@mscudde2]

Thank you Nate and Infinite. Great tips to keep in mind when I'm busting out my sidearm. I tend to rely on my destroyers to hyzer back in the end, but I think I will really benefit by testing out more understable discs and focusing on form.

[@TheRealtallwolf]

I have been working on my sidearms and started trying out the Crow Step and it's helped me with distance and accuracy.

[@jjw6961]

Nate is a treasure.

[@sunandroses1]

One of the best ambassadors of disc golf, great player, teacher, and commentator. May not have the best numbers in disc golf, but one of the all around best players in the game

[@TMStamp]

The right amount of information to get you on your path. The rest is practice practice practice. Thanks Nate

[@osgiliath4]

Insanely ready to hear this in such a concise way I was

[@mikepitts8470]

Thanks for taking the time to help us noodle-armed wknd warriors learn a few pro tips. You rock, Mr. Sexton.

[@slingshot_db2389]

Endeavor to keep the palm up! Nate you’re the best and that is the best advice to give anyone looking to throw more controlled consistent FH’s.

[@davidc6032]

Watching Nate and the other pros throw forehand (sidearm) is amazing. Looks effortless and goes hundreds of feet.

[@timorautiainen1783]

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.

[@stonemad35]

Thank you Nate. Gained 50-60 feet on my last field work. Can't wait to use it on the course.

[@NoelKerns]

Nobody explains Disc Golf better than this guy.

[@Rob-in-hood]

When I was a beginner I would always throw rollers and needed a overstable disc that would go hard anhyzer. Since I’ve had allot of time to get a smoother toss but this and Eagle’s tips have changed everything I thought I knew for the better

[@johnhall9900]

Nate - so funny while being so concise! I love it! The levers made me really laugh, while being solid advice. Thanks for sharing your methods!

[@iconone5]

Thanks coach

[@nickmedonic8061]

Best advice I have ever got. Don't over complicate. Not my natural shot but willing to learn for those few shots. Thanks...

[@Eparker09]

Thank you!

[@discgolfillustrated2640]

thank you Mike...I have a recent right knee injury and want to develop a better forehand to keep playing effectively during rehab. Awesome instructional video.

[@boldave3]

Finally a good clinic on side-arms throws!

[@123joshmallett]

Absolutely perfect! I’ve been having to throw very over stable disc because I throw it hard. But using the wrist more has helped. Thanks!

[@stalefish6907]

Just bombed over 400 ft forehand for the first time after utilizing these tips in field work the other day. Wouldn't say its repeatable yet, but man it was such a rush watching the disc fly that far out of my hand.

[@theodoreanderson3708]

I've watched videos 4x as long and learned less. Straight to the point, no BS. Very realistic advice!

[@danacoleman4007]

NATE!!!!!!

[@jmwalls73]

Excellent...Sexton is a real pro.

[@juicelo84]

Thank you. I found my grip back. My forehand was totally lost but after this shots fly smoothly. :)

[@olaskold]

Nate rules! 😎👌❤

[@ronnyschuster9959]

Great breakdown on angle control. Simple, but to the point. Good luck this year, bud.

[@mikedoyle9934]

And if you get the touch shots you can get straighter with more understable discs without the wrist roll. Great breakdown!

[@Dickstacy1]

I'm loving the Sexton sidearm. I wish the static in his mic was fixed. Thanks for the video.

[@kekkonenprkl]

tyvek05 Pretty sure he meant the clipping in the audio but just got the term mixed up.

[@VikingBagsYT]

Thanks for helping me out with my sidearm Nate! 👍

[@mspencer3634]

Great video. I love the simple point that new side arm throwers should be flicking understable instead of super stable like we typically see.

[@jerebere19]

After busting my knee this video changed my game take notes

[@indigo3605]

great advice, I will now anihalate the course

[@adamrector]

Hello from Oregon. Dexter Lake course is hype!

[@chadhardisty3222]

I am a beginner an I throw side arm this video helped understand what I am doing wrong

[@Kennanable]

I must say that Nate is just not obviously a great player but he explains and shows really well too. Well done Mr Sexton.

[@frisbeephil]

Premium information. So articulate. Thanks Nate.

[@rtproductionsrollintwentie9236]

Nate is looking great and healthy!

[@royaljdaniel]

This guys is a genius! Thanks Nate.

[@caseysmith544]

thanks, I found that helpfull however I will try with midrange discs first a more neutral disc a Shark 3.

[@allagoon]

Such a great tutorial - I developed a forehand based on this vid - coming back and reviewing I realized some stuff I'm doing wrong.

[@777-Phil]

Thank you guys for questioning and elaborating! Utmost blessings!

[@datrucksdavea2080]

Nate is a great instructor

[@jfwild1]

Great quick video with some good pointers. Thanks Infinite and Sexy -- keep up the high-quality DG content!

[@matthewbarber405]

Excellent teacher.

[@remiheikari8859]

Nate sexton = wordls best forehand player. That's my opinion.

[@gcoffey223]

Remi Heikari Definitely top 5..... I feel Barsby is heavily underated as well.

[@remiheikari8859]

awesome explained

[@JimPlattes]

I like the hop he talked about. I'm going to try it. My backhand has been lacking lately.

[@J_Wales]

Great vid, very helpful and straightforward.

Thanks Nate that did solve a couple issues i had

[@dr05guitar]

great tips...still trying to work on my sidearm and this helps

[@johnlabadie4081]

Thanks Nate! Great advice.

[@FizzyP]

Wow this is great instruction! Aside: Scott Stokely gets huge forehand power with a straight armed reach-back. So, it's not totally impossible.

[@jeffthompson1621]

Wow that video was so helpful so fast thank you Nate

[@jasonurroz570]

excellent advise, Nate!

[@dickiebrewer168]

I can't wait for Nate to demonstrate the front arm or the back arm . . . the under arm!

[@sirarthurkingofbobland4159]

they had to cut this video short, jackass team had a reunion, they were going to film the toiletshot again, yes, you see those 2 toilets in the backround, things did hit the fan.

[@Chumppi]

Nice an quick camera work. Great job.

[@joshmondragon9916]

Awesome instructional video!

[@rvillarreal0410]

This is by far the best forehand clinic video i have watched. You give amazing detail and instruction with regard to the pull back and the footwork which, in my opinion, are some of the hardest things to learn when practicing the forehand shot. Thank you for this video!

[@gcoffey223]

How many flips does it take???? As many as needed. Sexton rocks

[@JaredTG.]

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.

[@3drumsticks]

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!

[@jaholden4]

lotta good info herre thanks

[@chrislamden9911]

Great video!

[@Diablonus4]

Thanks nate you are good

[@brisklight1023]

Dude this helped so much! Can we get more tutorials with Nate?

[@derekhawn]

This is great content.

[@adamjohnson5224]

The only issue with this tutorial is the comparison of the crow hop in baseball. Paul McBeth's footwork is more similar to a crow hop. Either way, thanks for taking the time to teach folks your skills!

[@jjgowdy89]

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.

[@BigSho0ter]

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

[@jacob42mylifeandme]

This! thanks nate! and jomez!!

[@joebrannon8843]

My leader!

[@RobespierrePaget]

Good stuff

[@SteveWilson406]

Good stuff.

[@StephenKatt]

My forehand is bad. I think he's totally right, I'll probably always be backhand dominant, but I really need the forehand for those fade to the right shots. It's just hard to get used to it when I don't use it very often.

[@gerrett108]

This freakin guy... lol Like he knows something...... (Total badass)

[@luukaslopponen1692]

you think he doesnt know?

[@Sharpe94]

Is there a excersize you can do at home to strengthen your wrists and get more spin and power into your shots?

[@MrMattSax]

good teacher

[@micahtiffin5578]

I'm still here in 2022

[@brentcohee2681]

I recently started playing with my co workers and my boss made me side arm and sure enough it is my throw.. exactly like a baseball throw
