      Agree! I already do some band exercises for my shoulder, but would love to add more, and add some stretching exercises to my routine as well.

    Great video guys! I honestly found this to be the most helpful distance forehand breakdown video I’ve watched on CZcams. I would love to see some more on the advanced forehand technique, it’s always fun learning something new!
    p.s. Loved the little disc shoutout at 15:31 it definitely made me laugh and then drop my jaw watching the throw with it! 😂

    A video on different band exercises and flexibility training for forehand throwers would be incredibly helpful. And also would probably help prevent some injuries for some folks out on the course.

      There are many programs that you can find for baseball. The motion is very similar in throwing the ball, so the workouts will help the same muscles

    As a predominantly forehand thrower, seeing Ryan Sheldon get that much distance just makes me want to get out there and practice. Definitely learned some things from this video!

  • @ChainDenials
    @ChainDenials Před 2 lety +24

    A slowmo of his form from different angles would be a great addition to this. Great video and great instructions! As someone mentioned earlier, a video on band exercises would be nice.

This, mixed with Scott Stokeley’s recent video on correcting nose up in backhand are two of the best instructional videos I’ve seen since starting disc golfing nearly 20 years ago!

I also, as well as many others in the comments, would love to see a video with Ryan Sheldon going over some stretches and such to work on flexibility! I used to be fairly flexible, but I got fat and out of shape and lost most all my flexibility lol so I'm having to work on getting all that back under control.

    This was amazing. I heard about this video on Disc Golf Course Review forums and checked it out before league today.

Lining it up to point forward made a huge improvement. Count me shocked!
