Honestly as a lefty, it really helps my brain to just see someone left handed throw and explain stuff. Feels like I'm reading a book in a native language after dozens that weren't lol
you could always watch other videos reflected in a mirror
This! It's so nice to see lefty tutorials! I don't have to convert what direction the fade is gonna be before they throw.
This was explained so cleanly! Would love to see more videos like this!
That Heat throw doe! 😍😍😍
That's what I said!
Learning to forehand understable discs opens up a ton of shots
Forehand putter in tight woods can be lethal with just a little field work
Specifically extremely narrow/low ceiling tunnels that don't allow full flight of the disc. You can get a lot of pop on a standstill forehand that has you looking at your target the whole time rather than trying to power up a backhand with the opposite flight of said disc. Of course if you're good enough you can do both, but that forehand standstill is probably more accessible to an up and coming player.
@@seanstreck2669 i agree. Being able to pop a forehand heat in the woods is one of my favorite shots and most useful. Let the disc do the work
I’ve said this many times, highly highly recommend
One of the best videos I’ve seen for forehand. Doesn’t hurt that I’m also left handed!
not trying to overhype this video BUT i have been trying to explain the differences at the ends of the forehand spectrum to friends for years and you put it all into accessible words and images in almost 5 minutes. i am both thankful and fearful that my friends will begin kicking my ass
This was so helpful. As I watched, I realized that I had come to this on my own but just didn’t think about it. I throw my Destroyer on anhyzer with a hard sidearm baseball motion and flick my Meteor basically from the hip and snap it out hyzer flip to flat. Much different motions. Thanks for codifying that.
Brian! This was one of the best breakdowns in forehand philosophies I’ve seen. Can’t wait to hit the field now
I’ve watched a good amount of videos on the topic. This is the first one that I think will actually get me feeling comfortable. For some reason it feels very awkward for me to throw forehand. But understanding the speed/stability vs throwing/spinning and when to release the disc seems to make sense. Can’t wait to get out and try it!
This was awesome, great production and simple advice. Discraft please make more vids like these!
Absolutely loved seeing a lefty throwing forehands! There’s so few tutorials shown from this side of the disc, thank you Discraft and Brian!
Yes this. As a lefty seeing it thrown that way really helps.
you could always flip the video files or watch via a mirror if there's a right handed tutorial you like
@@subspaceanomaly I would have never thought of this. Thanks dude!
Brian is particularly good at explaining / teaching topics like this. Thank you!!
I love Earhart's mid flick game. I think it was his Buzzz he was flicking around a Jomez practice round in Santa Cruz a few years back, and it looked so damn clean.
Brian - one of the best DG teachers out there
I just started forehanding the axiom paradox (5,4,-4,0), and it has opened up a whole new crazy hyzer late-flip turnover line that glides out flat that I can't really explain, but it's very unique. Basically I can lean out in the woods and throw a short backhand type shot with a flick. Neat!
I picked up a paradox to backhand because my forehand was so bad, but I’m more comfortable now, and will throw it forehand when called for 🤙🏽🤙🏽
I had to stop and takes notes to make sure I remember this tomorrow at the field.
Love flick approaches with my Sol/Zone combo. Can attack most courses with just these 2 discs alone. Fairways I love raptors, vultures and undertakers. Distance it's all about forces, Nukes and Cranks.
I'm a Lefty, so forehand is often my primary stance. been playing for 6+ years, and this shocked me. I feel like I know nothing now... In a good way
Love this tutorial. Clear and easy to understand explanations. Need more "Level Up" vids. Keep 'em coming.
I have been struggling with forehands and I can't wait to get out and try these techniques!
This is excellent, Brian! I’m looking forward to actively thinking about this next time I’m throwing. Definitely have discs that fly great when thrown forehand, and I’m assuming now that it’s likely because of my natural release angle and throwing style.
If Brian shows up in a video, I’m watching!
Excellent presentation as always Discraft and Brian. I tend to feel like I’m doing something wrong, but I could never exactly pinpoint it. Your explanation of flicking vs speed and spin needs of each discs made me say “THAT could just be my issue”. I thought my release angles were just bad, but now you have me thinking that maybe it’s me assigning the wrong technique and power to the wrong disc.
Much appreciated!
Cheers!
I love these level up videos. Watched this one and another one this morning and I feel like I'm learning a lot. Thanks!
ESP Zone super reliable upshot forehand flick disc.
Wow this is the best forehand tutorial I’ve ever seen.
I really enjoyed this! Super helpful and nice to see a lefty! I love the DD Warrant for forehands it just feels super versatile
This was beyond helpful. Being left-handed and a strict forehand-only thrower it's been hard to find info to improve my skills. I'm glad I found this though!
One of the best videos I have seen so far that help me understand forehands. I have only heard you had to throw understable discs. This really clicked for me. Can't wait to get out and try it out.
So good!
The Gator is my forehand disc. I can power all the way up on it and count on a low glide stable finish on massive flexes or power flat shots where it can't turn over. I also use it for approaches where the high stability at slow speed can give me tons of horizontal movement and really allow an an-hyzer at the right angle to pan out sliding to flat. If I need to stretch these shapes out a little further I throw a buzzz os.
My next goal is get my over-stable eagle working consistently, i'll still flip it over if i'm not careful, I'll be thinking about spin over speed next time out.
Excellent video! I'm 90% forehand (except upshots/putts) and this clears up so many of the issues I've been having mostly because I use the exact same throw for any speed/stability of a disc. Thank you!!! I'd love to see a video on forehand throws with a putter off the tee. I've only been able to make that work by throwing an extreme hyzer.
This was exceptional! My 2 favorite discs to forehand right now are a 22 Jennings Sidewinder and a 20 Ulibarri Raptor. Gonna try some of the different release techniques tomorrow when I hit the course. Thanks for the tips, Brian!
Great teaching moment. Understandable and concise. Well done buddy.
Incredible content and incredible talent. Brian’s been working on his broadcast skills and he is showing his chops! Great delivery!
Please make a video about how to control the nose angle of a forehand throw. Your videos are always super clear and I haven’t been able to understand other videos out there about forehand nose down throws
Cr'rack that whip! Give the disc a flip. Gotta love DEVO and this clear and helpful video.
I think you take this same idea to rollers. I can’t tell you how many times a stand still, forehand roller saved me a par or how having that shot has added to my “creativity” when choosing the best line to the basket.
This video could inspire James Conrad. Awesome stuff!
Wow!! This explains so much. I have tried so hard to improve my forehand with understable disc only to watch them turn into rollers from the upper slot. Thank you for this video it has done more to explain the forehand throw then any other. This by the way is the second video of yours i have seen. I think you are a gifted teacher with a great simple way of explaining things to newbies like me. keep up the good work
This guy has a knack for teaching 👍
When it warms up, and if I can remember these tips, I'll enjoy trying this...
This should be the first tutorial on forehand after grip. Outstanding! Thanks Brian!
Love your insight to the game, Brian! Great visual and explanation of the different throwing styles. Really enjoyed the idea of a spectrum.
Favorite for forehand shot/disc combination is a hyzer flip with my Big Z Undertaker. Incredible to watch it bank left and comeback right.
Well executed B! This video helped me, not gonna lie.
Brian is one of the best forehand clinicians in the game. he has an understanding of the throw that is years beyond most. listen to what this dude says and stop throwing nothing but super OS discs.
my Z force is probably my go-to forehand disc because when I do throw forehand I need something to hook up hard and that disc does it great! Nice job Brian!
Love it that this vid was done in Wildwood GA!
This is a great video. Bearheart does a great job explaining and teaching and why.
Hey Brian best tutorial I’ve seen yet well explained and form demonstrates keep up the great job
Great video, thanks for sharing. I think one thing a lot of people overlook when teaching others is how to properly grip the disc especially with a backhand.
This is absolutely fantastic knowledge
Great instruction, Brian. As a lefty I really appreciate this. My fav flick approach discs are the Rat and the Buzzz.
Yes!!! Lefties unite! I always have to translate teaching videos from what they say in to left hand speak.
Im a lefty also and trying to get better at it. Can you make a video on how to hold the disc in your hand and do you flip your wrist or lock it
Loving the way Brian explains this spectrum! Now I need to get out and practice it!
Such a cool video. Thanks, Brian!
I am trying to improve my forehand and have been really struggling to move between full send and touch shots. This is such a great explanation. Thanks for the content.
Love to hear feedback like this! Thanks!
I like how you covered the subject. I'm primarily a forehand player, so I'm always looking for ways to improve. You covered fast/overstable and slow/understable; what about fast/understable and slow/overstable? How would those be thrown compared to what you already showed us?
One thing to keep in mind as people try this is that you aren’t sacrificing clean form to change where/how the disc is released. You still get that “whip” type motion and nice lag then snap, even when throwing it higher like a ball. Important to keep in mind to reduce injury risk and get the most out of this technique.
Thanks for this! In ultimate it's a very low hyzer release and pronounced flick. I've been working on a higher anhyzer release using Innova Destroyer and getting a nice flex shot. For flat release I've been using Innova Orc, Gateway Apex, Innova TL3, Dynamic Disc Vandal, Latitude 64 Musket. For a low release I was throwing Discraft Avenger SS but it flew onto someones roof! I like to throw forehand approach shots with Innova Roc3, Mako3, Discraft Buzz and any putter.
Really interesting, especially how you approach overstable vs. understable. Something to work on! Thanks, Brian!
I remember you mentioning this on Instagram a while back as you were working through what to teach and how to teach it (I think). Pretty cool.
I agree i forehand 450+ coming from baseball background with just destroyer type disc but struggled with up shots and slower disc until I slowed down and just flicked the wrist 100% best way to explain it only thing to elaborate on this is start with putters hyzer flipping to flex then tone it back and throw flat to get panning upshot type shots made my flick game level up that much more it’ll give you that touch
What an awesome video! thanks Brian! I can't wait to go to the field to try this!!
Outstanding video all around
Disc Golf Instructor: "movement should be like cracking a whip"
Disc Golf Student who never held a whip in their life and only has Indiana Jones/Catwoman references to go by: "ok, got it"
Awesome video!! As a forehand dominant thrower i've been working on this lately and have struggled to improve my understable forehands. I'll defiantly be trying that whipping motion next time I'm out. Also Discraft force is my favorite forehand disc!
Neat. Very interesting way of looking at this. I’ve been throwing forehand forever. This explains why I could never get an under stable disc to drive well and why it seemed to take no follow through at all on a midrange upshot.
Super helpful video. I will give the baseball through a try tomorrow with my Nuke OS.
I love the way Brian teaches! Thank you!
I love flicking Zones!
Greats vids. I play lefty also. So it's great to see the lines from my usual point of view.
Love to throw a sidearm approach with my 4x Paul McBeth Zone - whatever angle i need, it will deliver!
Sweet info
Gotta say at the moment my favorite forehand disc is the passion on slight hyzer
Great teaching Brian
cant wait to try this information out!
Excellent video! Forehands place so much strain on the elbow. What's the best way to avoid injury while practicing your forehand?
The lack of proper warm up and recovery amongst most forehand throwers is scary. Pitchers pitch a complete game, but then they rest for 3 to 5 days and focus heavily on shoulder care. I was guilty of this early in my competitive career and paid the price for it. Do a nice dynamic warmup to get your muscles ready for impact, and ice/massage your rotator cuff and lats when you’re done. The best part about disc golf is that we can play every day, but the worst part about disc golf is that we can play every day.
@@brianearhart6075 Thanks so much for the great advice!
Thanks for the clear explanation. Very helpful.
Thanks for this tutorial my 2 favorite forehand discs I use a lot right now are the zone and the reaper
great video. big fan of the warship for flicks.
Interesting approach! Can't wait to experiment some. Thanks
Very cool info thank you for the insight
Great job! More content like this please!
great insights here
My favorite Forehand Disc is the Beast by far. Next would be a Firebird
Thank you!!! I had nooooo idea. Ok, that’s not true. I wondered, “Why is my forehand working on this, but not that?”
The only 2 discs in my bag that respond well to my forehand throw are a tl3 and halo Sidewinder. I can flick any disc i carry and tend to use more overstable for flick shots
2 favorites for forehand, currently they are the esp nuke for the stable side and the evolution instinct for my less stable. Still need some stability in order to not overturn.
So, where does a fast and under stable release fall, especially compared to a slow and overstable one? Can you illustrate flight paths of these two as well?
I think it just falls lower on the spectrum than an overstable fast disc. I think he would have you adjust to each disc, and how you want to throw them. 🙂🙂
Great stuff, thanks!
1400 moulds, and an infinite amount of possibilities between plastics, weights, and post production profilings.
Crazy enough, it’s gotten to over 1500 since filming this!
man. His forehand is dirty. He definitely knows what he's talking about
Starting out mids were cobras. Now its buzz for mids, drivers are Rivers, Heats, or a Bolt
I can't throw forehand at all excluding short 30-40 meter approach shots with my lux tactic. I hope this will help my forehand throwing
Good metaphors, but aren't these true only for left-handed players? I mean if I let a slightly understable putter go like cracking a whip below the waist as a right-hander, it's gonna turn right like crazy andturn into a roller. Maybe I didn't understand, I'm new to the sport.
From touch approach to labrum tearing bomber 😎
Thrasher and Avenger SS
I went and threw forehands today and threw the best I ever have after watching this. My question is: I have no arm, so my highest speed is a Stag or Teebird (8 and 7). Do I still throw those from a low release or not? TIA
It works just the opposite for me with my noodle arms. I have to throw low and pop those overstable fast discs. And go higher and use more upper body for slower or understable discs. Maybe I’m just built different. Maybe because of 52 years of disc golf and so learned wrong, but doubt I can change it now. Might break my arm changing my form at my age. Thanks Brian, I show you next time I see you. Maybe you can help me.
You can relearn anything if you are willing to suck again at it for a month
@@WillEnj0y lol. So true.
this make me feel like, if i ever travel to the us. YOU and uli, would be my travel excuses...
I really hurt my arm by accidentally 'popping' my arm when throwing faster discs hard, I had a great forehand in ultimate, could throw hard and far and touchy throws. it's so hard to not do that with the fast discs and inner elbow /top of lower arm is getting ripped apart.
