Love this. Went from 300 ft to 200 in one day

You were awesome in fight club.

I saw this in a Scott Stokely video first.

the portrait video in clips cuts off the part of the screen with your fingers when you're saying "this part of the finger" 😅

I've also noticed that this helps prevent me from rolling my wrist as much, so I'm more easily able to throw flip ups rather than having to chop with an overstable disc

Thanks so much, I think you've just opened the door to me understanding how to get more forehand distance - much appreciated!

Not cool, why are you making exact copies from other creators' videos and dont even give them a shoutout? This was straight from Scott Stokely.

the real trick to getting distance is leading your throw with your elbow

Anyone else think Edward Norton is now doing disc golf? Lol

great video, you just taught me how to forehand finally. i was sliding off the side of the finger and not the pads of them for so long wondering why i wasnt getting much spin.

Thanks. I've been working on my forehand for ages. I just can't seem to get it.

I “serve the pizza” for anything under 350 feet: it works much better for getting clean releases on hyzer-flip shots or anything where max power isn’t needed. It increases the chance that all whip movement is in the same plane from elbow and out.

Thanks man, one of the easiest diy videos I ever used.

Honestly what we need more than anything is sub-thousand rated players to stop instructing people on literally anything in disc golf. The only time you ever hear people speaking in absolutes when it comes to something you should do in disc golf is whenever it's coming from some 900 rated player no one should be listening to. Youre instructing people not to do something that some of the most prominent forehand players of all time swear by. Theres a reason its an age old saying and its not because it doesnt work. If it doesnt fit your play style, cool. But to tell people to stop doing something because of that is just bad information. Disingeniuine at best

Thank you for this, was very helpful. ✌️😁

Revolutionized my forehand👏

This was extremely helpful. Thank you

Gonna give this a try!

Why would you steal his exact lingo. Just put up a link to his video. Lame bro

The stacked grip is the best, most power

I throw a 450ft fh with your 1st power grip, no control for me doing the other 3 you showed. Especially mid/upshot grip.. haha

I was just happy with my forehand shot. Now I'm questioning myself

Better finger position means more spin. More speed too. Go long, forehanders! 😂

I've thrown several shots 400-500+ without using this tip and I'm willing to try it next time I do some field work; however most of the power in a side arm has almost nothing to do with the wrist motion. If you aren't engaging your hip and core in the shot then you are losing half your potential distance

I use my index finger on the rim wall and my middle finger sits on the lower rim profile a bit like how I used to throw fast balls in baseball. Saw someone use this to get huge distance and I've been using that grip ever since. I still use the two finger grip when throwing putters or midrange forehand. I have a putter ace with the two finger grip and a driver ace with the one finger grip. Experiment, take notes and see what works for you!

Tysm

Let me just steal Stokelys video. Bro is constantly doing shit like this

I always hear people say that others teach it this way, I’ve never heard a single person say to “serve the pizza”

Scott Stokely methods being implemented far and wide. Nice!

Great filming bub

Thanks bro !!:)

Flip’n awesome

The same principal applies. You still serve the pizza aka release palm up. Changing grip doesn’t change that.

great tip

I launch em with just my pointer under the disc, all snap of the wrist

bruh.. gamechanger for me who cant really throw a forehand!

We send it endzone to endzone in ultimate frisbee, saying you won’t get much distance on that is incorrect

Saw you suggest this technique a couple weeks ago and wver since I've taken your advice, I went from getting maybe 200 to 250 feet, to getting almost 100 feet more and not only that the flight path is so much more accurate!!

I do this but with only my index finger on the side of the disc. Does it serve a purpose to have middle finger and index finger?

The Curb stomp master himself!!!👍👍

I serve the pizza for approach shots, but then again I am one of the few people I know that can side arm a putter, my drive is what you are talking about. At least when Scott Stokely did this video he said," I'm not saying to stop throwing approach shots this way."

I liked the part where he showed which part of finger needs to be inside the rim

Thinking about going back to one finger, like Marwede, because I can bring it a good bit further back, so could be more spin generated. I suspect I’m not the only one, and that I bet a lot of middle fingers just don’t bend as far back as using index only. Curious whether you’ve tried this.

Can I ask.. why use the middle finger vs. the index on the edge of the disc?

Whenever i try this my discs turns into rollers no matter the stabilety off the disc. I think my mussle memory is to used to the serving pizza way 😅 anything other than that feels very uncomfortable. I am stuck at 325-350 feat on forehand 🤷‍♂️

It depends on your hands. I stated 21 years ago with a 1 finger flick at 420'. You just need to observe different techniques for your best results

2 paths to the same destination. Ive gotten over 400 and can hit 375 consistent with "serving the pizza". You can throw far like that so maybe go with another way to throw forhand. How fast you can snap that wrist matter alot as well.

Disc golf instruction is still all over the place

idk I feel like a lot of throwing is developing your own style that is comfortable to you as an individual. Me personally, I stack my fingers the first way (the way he tells you not to do) and get more power and distance than, "the proper way". Don't forget whether its backhand or forehand the power generates from the legs into the hips then arm speed and snap at the end. just my .02 cheers

Wrong. I did your style for 2 years. Serve the pizza is what’s up. Trust your plastic

Ty

W camera man👍🏻👍🏻he’s definitely done this before

Scott’s the pizza guy!

This part... Which part?

Scott Stokley!!

I like this shot for shot remake

would love some analysis on tge relation between ultimate and golf throwing technique. Ive beem throwing tge wrong way forever, but some of the best ultimatr players suggest palm up. which one is it?

i use a single finger to drive and 2 fingers for approach

I hate this advice. I assume it must work differently for different people but when I started doing this a couple weeks ago, my forehand got significantly worse. Then I watched a video on putting your hand palm up and how to actually hold the disc and I have a really good forehand now. Maybe it just depends on your hand and your arm. I don’t really know. But this advice held me up for a couple weeks because I could not make that forehand work. I’m going to continue serving the pizza. Mechanically for me it just works better.

Throwing the pizza is first step to building a flat throw. So you can build on better wrist control. People who have been playing for a while. Stop telling new people not build proper form first.

That flick is for short and accurate under passes that you can release quickly in ultimate. I don't think even ultimate players will tell you to do that for longer passes.

Your hand goes off screen when telling us what part of the finger needs to rest in the disc

To get distance i just use a backhand

Def Edward Nortons favorite sport.

Never ever have I heard or been told pizza.

You should learn both tbh. The pizza grip is very reliable and easy to learn good approaches with (even anni flex shots approaches etc. But for distance you should just throw backhand ;]

Good information thanks

Does this technique add any additional wear and tear to the shoulder or elbow? I’m almost exclusively a forehand throwe

What you're teaching in this video is how you should be throwing an ultimate disc to begin with. The bigger reason people don't throw far with fore hand is using too much arm and not enough hips and wrist.

i am wainting for trow

"proper" to one player may be "improper" to another., Everyone's hands are different. Do whatever feels comfortable to you. Experiment. Practice. Observe. Ask Questions. Have Fun!!! RAS2995

Doesn't just look like Edward Norton but sounds like him too. Wow

That actually makes a lot of sense

"You want this part of the finger" which is off the screen because of a ripped video.

Which part of the finger?

Sorry which part of the finger? Camera wasn’t angled at what you were trying to show….

"this part of the finger-" *Doesnt get it on frame

U dont even throw the disc!!😂😂😂 Great teacher 🤡

Bro fire the filmer lmao

Why does the player of the year and 2-time world champion make a conscious and visible effort to "serve the pizza" on every forehand throw?

Gotta unsub for that, respect your elders.

Sounds good Aaron kyro

Thanks Edward Norton.

Truth

I used to do what he showed, i switched to the other way and increased from 350 ft to 450 ft. Take everything with a grain of salt, it may work with you and not for me.

old school 😂

I use split finger grip unless I'm throwing my roadrunner

I just pretend I am skipping a rock instead of over thinking it. It works.

Watch slo mo video and your wrist doesn't even get to straight before the disc comes out

Don't ever say "stop serving pizza"!

wonder how much ill gain this spring trying this. I've always kept palm up. imagine gaining 50-100 feet instantly

Great Scott Stokley ripoff!

Yes, so I can do a forehand throller instead of the flip up I wanted 😂

Literally stole this from Scotts video. And did t give him credit

Stokely method - you should give credit where credit is due.

Nothing new but when he shows where on the finger to have on the rim, he's out of frame 😂

I used to love playing disc golf, then unfortunately I contracted hiv from my lover and fell ill. I am no longer able to enjoy my favorite pastime and am now relegated to ingesting copious amounts of pharmaceuticals and watching the view.

I put my index finger and middle finger both on the rim.

“This part of the finger” wasn’t even in the video, visually. Got it though, my pinky 😉

You literally stole all this content from Scott Stokely. He did a video 8 to 9 months ago. You must have watched his video and posted yours 7 months ago.
