That is exactly how I learned how to throw a forehand. I watched a few videos (BroTips didn't exist yet), bought a dozen disks from amazon, went out to a field, and just threw short until it stopped wobbling. Then just started throwing farther and farther away. Run out of disks? Hard sprint to the nearest disk, and grab it off the ground. Rebuild your stack as fast as you can, and once you get to the last disk, dump them and start throwing them back the other way.
I know that feeling. When I first started throwing my flick my hand would hurt bad, but after a few months of weekend play my hands acclimated. I had forgotten what the pain felt like till i recently worked on my off hand flicks. It was bittersweet.
my team also runs triangle of death. super effective drill especially for handlers or newer players who need to build up confidence and stop hesitating
You want the front of your middle finger pressing on the rim of the disc rather than the side. It gets a lot more power (move your wrist perpendicular to your palm and then parallel to your palm to see the difference), and it doesn't hurt the joints.
the side of my middle finger also hurts as i throw my forehand. the disc is basically sliding off the slide of my middle finger causing the pain. is this something i'm suppose to get use to? i had this last year too or am i releasing the throw wrong?
Brodie, do you have any advice for getting distance on hammers? Whenever I throw a hammer, I can get it like 40-50 yards, but anything further than that the disc gets wobbly.
It's when you vary your throws when throwing around here's how I do it when i'm throwing around First I'll throw 10 straight backhands Then I'll throw 10 straight flicks Then 10 Outside-In backhands Then 10 Outside-In flicks 10 Inside out backhands 10 inside out flicks 10 high floaty hammers 10 low fast hammers 10 push passes 10 scubers And that's Kung Fu throwing :)

Double Wide - National champions! I'm from Austin, and I hope to play for DW at some point.

Kung Fu Throwing is a really good workout for throwing. I personally do it all the time and it is a really kick ass workout.

the side of my middle finger also hurts as i throw my forehand. the disc is basically sliding off the slide of my middle finger causing the pain. is this something i'm suppose to get use to? i had this last year too or am i releasing the throw wrong?

srpjr3795 hey I can't even throw a hammer so im practicing
Thanks for this!
great video
@mandelhandle This isn't uncommon. You fingers aren't use to the grip and thus need lots of practice before that pain goes away.
what songs do YOU listen to?
how do you improve your hammer ? when i throw i cant get it to my partner and not smooth enough ??? any suggestions?
