Throw REALLY straight | Disc Golf Basics 

Roses are red, the sky is blue, here are some very nice stuff for you ❤ /Jonathan bit.ly/47CrPnG

I am a beginner and I spend most of my time searching for my disc that I'd just sent into the woods accidentally

I've been playing since the beginning of the year, and am developing well. But, your last couple of videos are fantastic, you break things down in a great, simple way and find tips that you don't find anywhere else. Thanks!

Ekstrom is so relaxed in his motion, great to watch him throw

This was one of the clearest videos I’ve seen. Thanks :) Going out on the course tomorrow, if my throws are still crap I’ll come back and complain (Joke!).

Every person that's learning (like me) should watch all of Latitude 64 videos every 3 month or so. I watched this 4 months ago and was overwhelmed, now it makes sense.

Nice. Can we please have an updated "in the bag" video from Tomas? I always find it very interesting to see what discs he uses since he is the one who designs them.

These videos are awesome, Tomas talks no nonsense and he makes it look so easy. Possibly by coincidence, I just bought a musket today before seeing this video lol.

great tips here. this really helps a beginner like myself improve!

I can speak English and French, but not Swedish and I do have to say that Jonathan is a great example of an excellent communicator and I also love the fact that his title sounds and looks so cool in English. Kommunikatör på Latitude 64°

I’m pretty new to the sport, only been throwing for maybe just under 4 months. I am an older guy, 56, and have micro tears and slight bone spurs in both shoulders….but I refuse to give up on trying to be the best player I can be. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am naturally a forehand thrower but this really aggravates my shoulder, so I’m trying to learn how to properly throw my backhand. But I have little to no power behind it and my aim is awful lol. Your videos are amazing, both informative and yet funny, silly at the same time. Please never stop making them. I appreciate you VERY much JM

I appreciate the detail provided. Many of the video tutorials I’ve watched lack as much of the questions of why this technique or that works.

Great Tips. Game changer for me, as someone else mentioned something just seemed to click. Big shout out to you guys, much love. Keep creating new content.

These videos are so well done. Short enough with enough information and a little bit of character.

Hello you two. I came in contact with disc golf a couple of years ago while I was living in the UK. I enjoyed it but was pretty bad at it since no one really showed me the ropes. After 4 years, I bought myself a few discs again and today I practiced a bit on a huge field. First few throws were awful but with every try the discs began to fly more and more straight even though it was pretty windy. I still can't get much distance but I am already happy to be able to get the disc to go in the direction I want it to go. So a HUGE THANK YOU for this fantastic video!

I love these videos. The cold open grip lock into the disc racks, classic. Keep the content coming.

I just recently started throwing latitude 64. I started with the Bryce and really liked the feel of the plastic and now my bag is 99% lat64 fury, golbi, falchion, 2 bryce, gauntlet, mercy, dagger, etc... love your discs!!

These videos are literally the best ones out there for beginner tips. Keep up the great instruction and the great production!

I got into disc golf just over a week ago through a friend and it is freaking amazing! it is super fun and also super relaxing at the same time. I played one game with his discs and then another game just a couple days later with discs he recommended me to buy because it was both a great deal and good beginner discs. but I didn't have any knowledge on how to do it and he is also quite new so he isn't what you would call a pro either. I'll go to the nearest course on saturday so I can get some practice and I hope for some decent weather so I can go down to the field and do some practice throws tomorrow. it is terribly rainy here today.

Love the clarity, love the humor. Well done!

the more of these things you do, the more people will watch both due to the growth in the sport and your outstanding personality and presentation style. Keep up the fantastic work, and I loved your visit to America vid. MORE MORE MORE :)

This is such a good marketing technique.

I like that he shows how to throw SMOOOOTH and easy. I will certainly try today with my swing to just slow things down and Analyze my stuff!

You guys are fantastic! Enjoying your tips and learning about how to throw discs correctly. thanks!

Thank you thank you! Watched this video a month ago when just starting to throw and again yesterday, and my buddy and I threw our best today because of these tips! Especially the one about how high to hold your arm, I didn’t know that’s what was causing my throws to flip w annhyzer Woo! 🎉❤

Hello Thomas! Great advice for newer players! Fundamentals are key to making good habits.

5:00 The Hyzer Flip. Truth revealed.

This just helped me solve a problem I started having recently with unexpectedly anhyzer releases... turns out I was letting the disc come up too high. Thanks.

excellent videos. been learning quite a lot. also a huge man crush on this dead pan humour jonatan. keep up the good work

what I would also add to this excellent video is - don't throw it like a frisbee. I was doing that and I was getting results as if my disc was constantly over stable. Pretty much ANY disc I tried was like that (except of course a wham-o frisbee) I was having fun games with people with my frisbee and they were using golf Discs and I was doing pretty darn good with the frisbee.. on par with some more experienced disc golfers.. so that's what got me into investing 'legit' Golf Discs.. The guys I was playing with were actually very surprised at what I was doing with the normal Toy frisbee. LOL - it's a different mind set to the game, surely some will understand what I mean. ... To explain how I was throwing ... I mean doing the coil of the disc into your arm pit. I was getting good power and distance at times with the Golf Disc.. ..but faded huge. I was scratching my head like..this does not correlate to the numbers on this. Then I found out I wasn't extending my arm - and that was a game changer. sitting here.. I can't remember if I look forward while I throw... I'll keep that in mind next time. Excellent series of videos. Thanks from Southern Ontario Canada.

Lol. The intro is me inside my house and my wife staring at me for hitting the wall...

Similar to my stand still midrange throws except my right plant foot is pointed rearward at approx. 8 o’clock. Sometimes when max power is needed my foot is rearwards at 7 o’clock. Great vid!

Hey Guys~! Got my first disc set for Christmas. A few days went to a close course and totally sucked~! But then I found your videos about throwing on a line and keeping your arm at your elbow height. i went to a local soccer field today just to try your techniques... I was throwing 4 times farther already and throwing straight on target as well~! I even got a little bit of Hyzer right then left fade action~! It was very satisfying~! Just wanted to say thank you for the info~! Not sure if you're still active making vids or not, but I'll keep seeking them out~!

Thank y’all so much for these how to videos they have helped understand the sport so much and how to improve my throw!

Tack för tydliga och bra instruktioner, kommer att investera i en lat 64 disk 😊

Nice to see Tomas having some fun out there with his park job

Yo, that was a fantastic transition @ 4:00

In the woods I like to use a maverick / truth or explorer depending on how much fade or turn I want. Looks like Jonathan is coming along that tunnel shot was pretty nice!

Lots of good info, well presented.

Straight shot, straight disc. Sounds good

Great transition at 4:02

I need to look up the definition of "nemesis" because Tomas absolutely laced that hole lol. 5:53

Thanks for these tips, I am hitting a hole in one on every hole now thanks

I love this!!!!

Great tips ! Love it. Keep up the good work and I love to se more videos like this. I need all help I can get. 👌👌👍👍👊

Thank you!! I’ve seen other videos that overcomplicate it but this one is great.

Such amazing techniques. Love it!

it would be cool to add feet markers to the drone shot also, would be a simple yet effective addition to make the videos that much better :)

Thank you I needed the refresher. 🙂

I am a 67 year old guy that has been playing disc golf for only a year now. Pay attention to the guys in the video , because this is what I have learned: Hyzer, anhyzer, 400 foot drives, 60 foot putts, all very nice. But if you throw straight and flat, and that is all you can do, you will win more often than you will lose. If you doubt this, play against a guy throwing baseballs instead of disks. Try it. It is... Enlightening.

what do you have to say about mcbeth, he throw very high up, and i think it generate more power to do this, the rotation change the elbow joint position then if you throw lower, talking about what level you should throw the disc.... that is my cup of tea...

Love my Buzz

I really like how you explain everything, thank you for the video!

Awsome instruction…getting teens involved in a great sport..this helps!

Love this whole series!! Keep them coming!

Thank you guys for the great intel, and always enjoy your video’s keep up the great informative video work :) thank you

Thanks guys. I just finished my second game. I only have three innova starter discs but I hook so bad to the right every throw. I think I know what I’m doing wrong now. Thanks for not being like all the other videos and being overly advanced at first.

This content is gold. Or opto. Whichever is good

My favorite straight disc in my bag is an opto claymore 👌🏼🔥

so, in order to throw straight, you have to throw straight... dude I have so much to learn

This is great. Thanks for all the solid tips. Been working out my form right now and this made a few things click that hopefully I can put into practice.

The Fuse in Disc Golf Valley flies just like that!

Great helpful video guys, hopefully I can figure out what i’m doing wrong on my backhand and fix it. I’m liking the Fuse, Fury, and Underworld for throwing straight backhand shots down the fairways!

Ok, going to try! TY

Lol the intro was me all the way

Followed this and still threw right into a tree 👏🏼

awsome och underbart och bra förklarat. ska genast testa dessa tips!

I totally tend to look and watch it go waay left.

After moving this video series as a newbie I decided to show some love and order my first Latitude 64 disc. I hit the saint disc. Is this disc good? Waiting for the package tomorrow

Good basics to know for beginners!

Grym duo!

Another great video to share with my community

i love you guys so much

You are the best 😁

I can do a forehand shot well (thanks to softball), but my backhand shots are very weak. I’m hoping this video can help me 🤞🏼

Love your content bro

Good and better all the time...

Great tips guys thanks!

Very good video. I have watched several and question. Recommendations for a true beginner for putter, driver and midrange? I did find it in one video now I cannot recall which one LOL. Many thanks and this is an OUTSTANDING video. Watched it a few times and many many more to go. Lastly, suggestions for a decent portable regulation basket here in the US without having to take out a second mortgage LOL? Peace out

Straight med Compass och River. Det gör jag.

really sweet quality and cuts

Good info! Thanks Tomas!!

Love

Where can I get like 15+ discs like the white ones in the video?

I won’t buy disc I only uses friends or ones I find.. though I keep finding other people names and numbers on it! Can’t keep those! Gotta wash em and send a photo to the owner of there disc and ask how much they want to pay to get it back followed by a just kidding I’ll drop it off at the drop box for ya!

Wow

Thanks

This was great! I have my own "nemesis" hole where I rarely hit the tunnel shot, and bounce off every tree. And end up scrambling for bogey. I'm using the wrong disc (clearly) and I need to get out of my head. Gonna try this out today. Thanks, fellas! 🙌✌️

Very usefull, thanks

Very helpful☝🏽

Thank you! ♥

What wasn't discussed here was release timing... I struggle with proper aim and releasing it at the right moment...?

Love it!!!

Thanks for this!

Is this course at Lake Tahoe?

I love my Fuse! I have a question. What speed discs should someone who throws on average about 70 meters be throwing? Would faster discs go farther?

Vad är det för bana ni kör på ser riktigt fin ut!

Good stuff!

This is how I envision disc golf players. Holding hands and dancing. Even there’s a point where u say this is wrong. 😂

Doesn't "choose the right disc for the shot you want to make" largely depend on the player's ability to make the same (more or less) throw each time?
