Felt the need to let you know how much even more gorgeous you are in person. I was the guy thst talked to you on hole 1 tee of your last practice round at Music City. Your husband's a lucky one :) Good luck this year!
Omg I’ve been searching everywhere for a good well detailed forehand video and yours is the absolute best thank you ❤
Thanks for the detailed and easy to understand tutorial! Bringing in your softball/sports background and training really helps reinforce your points
This is probably the most detailed explanation of forehand technique I’ve seen, definitely going to try this stuff in the field!
I have to agree here.
Go watch Eagle McMahon's tutorial if you want a more detailed explanation than this. 😉
You are much better teacher than a lot of other people I’ve watched for form tips and also touch on a lot of details I haven’t really heard talked about before. Thanks!
literally says the exact same thing that the last 50 forehand videos on youtube said.
This video literally got my forehand from 250ft to 350ft in two days. Thanks for the great explanation, so much better than any forehand video I have seen.
Great video, Caroline! Keep up the great work, and we all look forward to seeing how your content evolves over the season! You're a natural! 👏🎯🎥
Gather round kids, long ago, the year was 2023, and Caroline Henderson released the most technical forehand tutorial video anybody has ever seen…
Thank you for sharing these tips. As a forehand dominant female I have a hard time finding detailed videos that I can use. Very well done with the explanations and techniques. Thank you again. And don’t listen to those backhand domination people lol.
This is one of the best forehand videos on UA-cam. Particularly the footwork here is on point.
This was a really good tutorial. What sets it apart from others I've watched is you talking about the mistakes that can happen and why they happen. This is relatable to what I've done while throwing and is helpful for correcting my mistakes. Great job!
The explanation of the myology and athleticism in this video is very helpful. I also appreciate the breakdown of each step in the forehand.
ok i know im going to sound like that person, but i NEVER had a forehand and FH videos are probably the number 1 type of discgolf instructional videos i have seen. This is by far some of the best advice out there and delivered in less than 10min is amazing. The drills and especially the tips on how to prevent injury are both fantastic. I dont have a big arm but after watching this a couple days ago i went out to the course yesterday and told myself i would play each Tee with a BH and FH throw. This WORKED. i was consistently throwing what i would call a good FH from the start and by the end of the round i was outdriving my BH throw almost everytime. I was blown away. Caroline is a BOSS and it has been awesome to see her take off this year, and content like this just adds to it! Thank YOU for making this!
I watched this about a week ago and thought about some of the concepts as I played some casual rounds over the last few days and noticed i wasn't hurting my shoulder on my forehand which I normally do. Ifinally got around to trying out the steps on some fieldwork today and it really did make a difference. I threw 82 forehand drives (I have a bag of 18 drivers) and my shoulder didn't hurt and - more importantly - I threw pretty consistently (assuming I got the angle of release right for the stability of the disc).
I even threw one about 370 feet which is probably, easily 40 feet further than I've ever thrown a forehand - and 20 feet further than my backhand on a very good day.
Thanks for the video and breakdown. It was super helpful.
The little enthusiastic bounce at 0:13 is the absolute best. Seriously though I've only been playing a short time and cannot for the life of me figure out how to throw forehand. This video is invaluable to me. Thanks for making it.
I needed this breakdown so bad lol Thankyou so much for making this; ive watched dozens and dozens of videos on improving my forehands but none of them covered the complete movement like you have. Cant wait to get down to the course and practice!
Well done! You have a gift for instruction. Looking forward to more content, especially backhand. 9:56
Excited for the backhand video if it's anywhere near as good as this one! A backhand video with correct mechanics, explained well, will be huge! Making the distinction between real and feel is great too. There's only so much information people can get from watching slow mo footage, but video footage is not good at showing the forces the player is actually applying.
Disc golf has started falling into many of the same traps as golf did where for decades people were trying to replicate pro form based on video footage, with no real understanding of what forces the player is actually intentionally applying, and what are just byproducts of those forces, resulting in people mimicking "outputs" as if they were "inputs." Much like the old "squash the bug" trope that has haunted many sports.
Ladies are infinitely better at explaining things than men. Thank you. There were so many little technique questions I had that I could not find in other videos and you went through them all.
Thank you finally someone who knows how to teach without all the extra talk you are right to the point well done. I been looking for a while on a tutorial on how to keep the nose down on the forearm throw .😊
I'm going to mimic everyone here and say how great of a break down this seems to be... now to go and apply this to field work.
A quick question- as I go about working on this technique, what sort of disc would you recommend? Something stable? Driver/FD/Mid/Putter? Either way, thanks for the clear explanation- I find it fascinating when the cross over from one sport to another works so well... I used to play ball golf, and got so annoyed when hockey players who barely played golf could outdrive me... of course, this was before Happy Gimore even came out!
I applied some of this and got back my forehand that had severely fallen off recently, thank you so much!
This is probably the best forehand tutorial that I've ever seen. I can't wait to get out to the field and try it out.
Wow, that's one of the best instructional videos I've seen! Thank you, and best of luck in all you do. Thanks for sharing.
Wow - this video is excellent. I’m legit going to do course work after watching this.
Oh my goodness!! What amazing advice. Is this the most robust and informative video on forehands now?!
Ohhh yeah, you're gonna be a good coach and DG content creator for this community! Thank you!
I’ve never had a problem with forehand, until I try to add power and this video has made the most sense to me. Immediately need to try this in the field.
So this morning I worked through the motion and then I just went out there and played a round and I will tell you this is the best forehand video lesson I have watched. You really hit on some incredible key points about the way the body has to move through the shot, which really does help with the proper release.
This is really good stuff. Very well done. One of the best detailed forehand videos I've seen. A lot of the Pros don't give enough details. Keep it up Caroline. I can't wait to see how you excel on the women's tour. Thank you.
This might be the best one I've seen yet. It seems all the baseball/softball players translate to flicks perfectly
seriously good video on technique. Might be the best one i have seen.
omg... what a damn video .. best forehand vid i've ever seen .. cant say enough about it .. this is a masterpiece for reeelz
This and Bearhart’s Level Up tutorial are the best I’ve seen on forehands yet.
Great breakdown, explanation, and methodology. Thx
Very smart explanation, I've always wondered why my shoulder was getting incredibly sore after a round; I only throw throw the full hand full power about 3-5 times. Thank you for the tutorial.
Love this - SO helpful! Please make the same for backhand! I'd love to see how you think through it.
That was great!! Nicely done. Took a few gems from it!
loved watching you play at Jonesboro this weekend! Was rooting for you the entire time!
This is the best forehand video out there. You hit all the points and make them very clear.
This is changing everything I know about forehand in the best way, I can't wait to play now
Thank you so much for the foot work section. This has helped me a great deal!😍 Keep them videos coming.
I have watched a lot of forehand videos and this was by far the most helpful. Thank you so much!
Great instruction! You are such a great addition to our sport! I'm looking forward to seeing you on lead card; and apparently not the only one....over 1000 views in 3 hours! Have a great tour!
This video was a party!! Practiced my form while watching the video. Please keep the tips coming!
This is so helpful. I’m so glad there’s women explaining form! It matters! Plus this is so in-depth. Thank you so much for doing this! 🤍 I can’t wait to try this
Wonderful content Caroline! Please do a backhand tutorial next. The way you describe the "real vs feel" I think can be very beneficial for all of us.
If there is any chance of you making a video with Ryan Sheldon about forehand technique and theory, please please try to! It would be viewed by hundreds of thousands on UA-cam. Your teaching style is among the very best I've seen in all of disc golf UA-camry. Thank you, Caroline!!!
I don't know what I expected, but this was better than I thought it would be. You did a great job! I guess I will have to subscribe. lol ;-)
Great insights! Thank you!
Coach Caroline! Great videos, keep up the awesome content.
Coming to this one after the backhand and it's clear that your teaching skills are not an accident. So well done. I appreciate you telling me how and why I injured my shoulder. That's good to know. Some creative tips for practice and taking small steps. I appreciate the advice to stave off injuries.
Great explanation! Instantly fixed my form especially my stand still upshots. Very on point explanation on having left leg on toes. Thank you!
Such an amazing tutorial of the forehand technique. Best I’ve seen to this point. Great job! 🎉🎉
Best ever forehand instructions! Thanks so much!!!❤
Killed this. Great additions to the other vids out there. Especially around the nose angle and release point.
This video is super helpful. Thanks for explaining what you're feeling and where you're putting pressure as you throw. Also what can go wrong and how to correct it. Looking forward to more videos from your channel!
Awesome job! Very informative and relatable. I’ve been having some issues with release point lately so I’ll be taking some of tips to field!
Great video…your teaching style is easier to follow than many others. Look forward to future videos. Thanks.
Helpful video on forehand throwing!
This drill is very similar to the one Christian Yelich attributes his sudden shift to elite power hitting to, and it was shown to him by Barry Bonds. Very cool!
As a prodigy thrower, I approve this message. I got to start making disc golf videos so I can one day get sponsored 😭
What an amazing teacher
Excellent explanation! I've throw sidearm for quite a while and I'm always curious about how other people explain it. This is one of the better explanations, along with Ryan Sheldon's video on advanced forehand distance.
Top 5 forehand guide, easy. Great work!
Very informative and detailed, video editing was on point as well. Great Job!
Great Job Caroline, I really like the methodical way you go about training . Keep up the great work!
I don't know who you are, I've never watched you play but this forehand guide video is THE BEST guide video I've ever seen and I've seen A LOT of disc golf guide videos. The explanations are simple and clear and demostrations are on point. You are also gorgeous! Keep making similar videos and we'll be watching and learning.
Same, I only found out about her a couple of weeks ago. I hope to see a lot more of her in competition and instruction. She could be the next hot goose.
Excellent forehand!
Excellent tutorial. 💯 Keep up the great work, Caroline! Looking forward to more content from you.
This is the video I've been waiting for! Thanks!
Wow excellent video! Your detail explanation gets me excited to go outside and try it. My forehand is almost non existent so this video is so so helpful. Thank you so much! Keep the coaching videos coming! You're great at it. ❤
I absolutely loved this video. I am primarily a forehand dominant player but was struggling with a few things in my fourm. The tip on the footwork and arm position was exactly what I needed. Well done, and good luck in your next tournament 💯💪👌👍🏻
Great tips that I can use to improve my FH. Thanks for such an informative video and keep it going.
Yeah!! I’ve been waiting for this
I have watched couple of forehand videos and your breakdown of the complete movement is one of the best I have seen. Already excited to try it out. If it works, you will get the crown 😊
Can you do a video on your backhand? This was one of the best forehand videos on youtube. Thank you.🏆🥇
Great video Caroline. Rooting for you out there!
Great teaching. You're a natural. Now I've got to get to the field and put it together. My forehand drives are either awesome (20%) or turned over/sawn off (80%). The great ones fill me with courage but they are not frequent enough at this point.
That was very helpful - thanks!
That was very informative thanks
Very helpful info and suggestions. Thanks so much Caroline! Subscribed! 🙏👍
Love the off elbow tip for nosedown, sometimes i tend to get noseup even if i focus on a forward tilted chest. Also in hyzer throw i tend to dip my arm in the backswing like you showed so its great to hear how it can be solved :)
Great explanation of why I was experiencing pain under my shoulder blades after a round.
I love your energy, it made me get up and start throwing disks at my bed (then one at the wall....opps)
This is an amazing video 🎉 keep them coming :)
Very good stuff! Thank you very much! All the best in the coming events to you.
Great info. I love it. ❤ Can't wait to put these drills in my practice.
I am convinced google and amazon can read my thoughts. I was just slow motioning some Ohn Scroggins forehand throws from the latest tournament and I was wondering why more FPO players don't do technique videos. Litterally 30 minutes later your feed pops up in my You Tube recommened list. Very helpful video and I love seeing new drills I can use.
Same
League members were telling me on Saturday about throwing the D2.
Superb breakdown, shared with a newbie and hope it resonates with him
Go coach Caroline! Great video! 🎉
Really good info in here!
The one thing that helped me the most in learning back hand AND forehand is what to do with the off-arm. I'm a lefty, but coil and opening up the shoulders doesn't happen if you don't focus on it.
I envision the forehand off arm like as if I'm a villain in a movie, hiding behind my cape. Lol! It gets my arm up at the right level. 😂
Something I noticed after watching the tour this weekend in NC...congrats BTW on making it into the cash line! ...someone like Ohn, does a kinda downward whip motion, like a wind-up with her throwing hand. The disc seems to go parallel to her back leg and she drives down that way as she follows through.
I tried that yesterday during fieldwork. I added, minimally, 50-75 feet in distance with less effort.
I enjoyed watching you play at the Blue Ridge Championship! Also, what a great explanation for the forehand.
I've struggled for years to get a two-finger grip that feels solid. I'll try this today.
Ever since I saw Eagle McMahon get injured (shoulder) and he was not able to use his amazing forehand / sidearm weapon, I decided as a Right-Hand / Back - Hand only thrower to start throwing Left - Hand Back Hand also. That was the fall of 2021. I have a old injury to my right shoulder ( struck by pickup truck while a pedestrian ) that i never had surgically repaired. So I knew that at some point on the course I would be faced with a left handed throw because of an awkward lie I would be confronted with, Do you and any of the FPO players discuss maybe learning to throw with the opposite hand, in case you suffer an injury and cannot throw at all with your dominant hand?? It has only been a year and a half, and I can throw almost farther left - handed than right - handed!!
Great job, thanks
What a fantastic instructional video! I feel like this should have been behind a paywall. Lol!
Best video ever🙌
What a great teacher
So solid. Love the explaination.
Well done great video
Excellent.
