Throw BETTER forehands after this video | Disc Golf Basics

Hey guys!
Me and Johannes want you to throw BETTER forehands after this video. As a complete beginner there was many basics things I learned from Johannes and his 25 years of playing disc golf. Forehand has been requested by many of you and in this video I try to improve mine. I think I´ve tried one forehand throw in my life prior to this.
Let me know if it helped you or if we missed something. Have a nice day 😀 /Jonathan

Hey! Here's some very nice stuff for you 😀🤘 /Jonathan bit.ly/47CrPnG

[@PlasmaSnake417]

Seriously dig these videos. Dude seems open minded and chill. Seeing him make the mistakes I need to correct is more relatable than seeing pros throw perfectly and talk about what newer players do. I wish I could add more likes

[@Latitude64]

that´s very nice of you. Glad you like it :). /Jonathan

@Ryland Peter It's great I can tell that this video really helped me and my bad forehand/sidearm throws alot. 5/5

I second this. Way more relatable.

[@tonyelleevans3322]

I love that there is an actual beginner in these videos. There are too many videos telling beginners what to do and not to do from someone who already plays perfectly. However, it's far more effective to see someone who is just learning trying out techniques and practices. I can completely relate to the mistakes and the "a-ha!" moments as well. You're very appreciated for making these videos and for helping us all!

I´m glad you like it :) /Jonathan

[@iAmAzwell]

What helped me develop my forehand was to go to my favorite local course and throw every shot forehand, except my putt. Don’t keep score. Just keep throwing until you find the discs that work for you. Keep the elbow close to your body and flick the wrist, and follow through.

[@drewg3087]

Great advice. Practice practice practice.

[@hudspeth_tv]

rofl, the fade to greyscale and sad music at 0:13 was such a nice touch.

This series seriously helped me a lot to devellop my discgolf game.

[@marcsandias2758]

Ikr! Been a social level player a few years. Happy that can play par level. For grins started watching these videos and putting the lessons into play. A few strokes per round better now. The fun level increased too. For simple reason that a few holes that I played for par now play to at least have a look/putting second circle.

Fantastic job on this tutorial series! Jonathan's struggles are soooo relatable, and so are the solutions provided by Tomas, and now Johannes.

[@danlewis1885]

The reaction difference between Tomas when you nailed the long throw and Johannes when you hit the S-curve .... Priceless 😂 "Oh my God..."

[@GregoryKarlovits]

Johannes' "pistol" grip explanation was perfect, changing to that finally gave me a reliable forehand shot! Thanks Johannes!

[@gync4]

Perfect videos, nothing too much, nothing too little, some people know how to do stuff right and a bit of good humor as a cherry on top. And you learn new stuff, perfect, just keep it up guys.

[@greenforce888]

Great as always. I cannot stand the other disc golfer videos that try to teach you. This is entertaining and informative. This is real teaching.

[@nateridgewaymusic]

Killer videos! I’m new to the sport (less than 30 days), and I love the humor mixed with great instruction and advice. Absolutely hysterical and educational at the same time.

[@Latitude64]

Thank you, Nate :)

[@FatSoundStudio]

Forehand is like writing in chinese for me. I can kind of throw upshots forehand but off the tee my forehand is non existent. Gonna try some of these tips.

[@jasonpreston9225]

I feel your pain

[@eskimogolfer]

Paul Ulibarri has a great episode of "Down the Fairway" on how to learn how to flick the disc properly. Use a putter and forehand the disc no more than 20 feet but spin it as much as possible. I call it the helicopter drill. If you do the drill correctly the disc will almost float in the air like a helicopter.

[@kurukururin]

that video helped me alot with my forehand too :D its amazing!

[@Jono.]

Thank you for the recommendation I just went to check it out. I think this video combined with that one gives me a good enough foundation to actually start training my forehand.

[@markadkins9290]

This is what I need a lot of help with, keep up the great work!

[@MrGarrettMorgan]

FH driving is awesome. I casually outdrive my BH and don't have to worry about my footwork. Finally seeing the discs turn how they are supoosed to feels so good.

[@Pandroid21]

I've been binging videos for waayy too long today and love to see how proper technique dramatically changes outcomes: distance/accuracy. Now if only I was motivated to go practice today.

[@Latitude64]

Go go go! And let me know how i went :) /Jonathan

[@GunNut37086]

I haven't played in about 20 years. I wish there'd been YT videos to learn from back then. I am enjoying these lessons a lot. Thanks.

[@Hotshotben]

i saw a video on how to throw a forehand on another channel, I stopped the video and came here because I knew it would be better! Thanks for the awesome content!

[@AlliedvisionsApparel]

Just picked up disc golf myself during this pandemic. I needed something to do to keep my mind busy during these wild times... I’ve played one full 18 course so far and have just been watching videos. I definitely like the forward throw more than the back hand. Thank you for this video

[@j897xce]

Super lucid, I'm happy to see a standstill forehand as the foundation. A standstill backhand video changed my game forever years ago, this surely will help my baseball twisted forearm.

[@JJKOOLKlD]

Big Jerm gives a tip in a Brodie video to open your front foot up parallel with your shot. This guy says more of a 45deg thing, but he’s capping hip power and risking a knee injury if he REALLY connects hips into the flick. No knock on the video; it’s great for beginners. But if you want power, open up the foot. I max flick 400. Jerm’s tip has put a smoothness into my shots I’ve never felt before. Also my back foot kicks out like a bowler does. Helps to stabilize my follow through. Stay low. Condense your frame. It helps to maintain balance when you explode. ✌🏼

[@cupbowlspoonforkknif]

I will only be buying discs from Latitude 64 because of your KZbin channel which introduced me to you. Love the videos!

Fick en påse discar av min kusin i utbyte mot mitt gamla golfset. Vart ute 5-6 gånger och gjort alla misstag i världen. Nu när jag sett flera av era videos känner jag mig redo att komma ut och lära mig på riktigt med lite know-how, samt att jag har något att lära mina lika noobiga kompisar :) Synd att klockan är så mycket annars hade jag gett mig ut på ängen och testat!

[@fershnibbity330]

Thank you for this! I feel like I've got the backhand down somewhat, but my forehand is dropping about 20 feet in front of me. This is way better explained than how it was explained to me previously!

I’ve only been playing disc golf for a short time, but never dedicated the time to learn a forehand. After watching this video I’m ready to add it to my repertoire! Well-produced and great tips. 👍

[@Latitude64]

Glad to hear, Jake 😀 /Jonathan

[@ifyouwereme]

Johannes is a good teacher. I loved the "Oh my god." When he got the throw right.

[@oivindalvestad7130]

I always found the easiest way to remember hyzer/anhyzer is thinking that the outside edge of the disc is pointing downward for hyzer, and vice versa.

These kind of videos are so helpful and I'm gradually getting better, found some good tips that I´m eager to try out.

[@JessieJames0317]

I was a QB in football and a pitcher in baseball. I always kind of equated my forehand to like Brett Favre’s throwing motion or a sidearm pitcher in baseball. When I started approaching it that way, my forehand got better and I now use forehand on my deeper drives because I can get more distance with it than my backhand where I use a bit more finesse and hit the shorter chips and putts.

[@smtx11]

These are very good tips. I don't watch these for knowledge, purely for entertainment. I'm no pro by any means, but know the little things my game needs. For a beginner all your videos are great. Really shows how difficult it is when you're first starting out. Your sense of humor and editing crack me up man. Glad you found a wonderful game. Can't wait for the day you beat Tomas! I'm teaching a 16 year old kid the game right now and it's a blast. He has a canon for an arm, so because on one hole he out drove me with a forehand he thought we should finally really keep score. He was sad to find out there was still much to learn (whooped him). But seeing things click and make sense to him is great. The first time someone throws a clean hyzer flip or flex anny that goes where they intend it to go seems to be the moment they fall in love with the game. Something about watching a disc bend and move like that, and planning it that way through some trees just works. Keep it up my man!

[@Latitude64]

Hahaha "Whooped him"😂😂 . Glad you like it my friend. I totally agree with you about seeing the disc go.

Another great video. I've been trying to improve my forehand for a long time. This video just gave me another tidbit to try. Many other videos I see tell you to bend at your waste to control hyzer and anhyzer. This video emphasizes the wrist. I'm going to work on that. Thanks.
