Reading is good but seeing is better (at this point)

[ryandr]

After reading a lot of comments and instructional material regarding correct throwing technique, are there any great sources (video) for watching the proper techniques put into action. I would still be considered and beginner or intermediate player but I need a firmer grasp on technique and reading is not cutting it. I would like information on RH sidearm throws and also RHBH throws. Possibly something with slowed motion or step-by-step instruction. (And as always, free it better.) If you do have any RH sidearm advise I will still gladly read your info. Thanks

I was going to suggest the Scott Stokely videos too. I have the first 2 and they're good.

Tom Monroe has a new video out that I haven't seen.
John Houck's Learn How to Play Disc Golf is informative for beginners too.

DGReview.com has lots of videos.

Here are some more to check:

I had developed a pretty good sidearm. I was happy with it, and had gained 20-30 yards.

Then the pro tour came by, and they had a free clinic. 4 out of 4 pros said that the forehand was a great tool to have, but was not a good power throw.

I went back to the backhand, tho it cost me yardage. But I've since gained that and much more.

I now throw as far as the pros did!


Only it takes me 3 throws.

Thanks DoktorJohn and Olorin for the Stokely video suggestions. I'll check them out along with the dgreview.com and the others.
