Yeah I can feel the hit with the hammer but can never translate it to a disc. Different grip/feel, somethings lost there. Maybe a tape weights on one one side of a disc? And I can't really snap a towel forehand, so that's telling.

Yes, I really think just getting a simple/repeatable clean release would serve me the best. I definitely want to set myself up that if I ever get that smooth, wobble free release I can translate it to a full bore throw... but heading back to square one and focusing on that hit moment might be...

1. I'll keep messing with my grip. May be the pictures but your grip looks more comfortable than the "power grip" typically does. 2. Yes, I am very straight up and down. Will certainly be more conscious of bending over. As for the pulling to the right, I 100% see it. Now it's going to be...

When I first went to forehand, the split grip felt the most natural. I think in part because I was used to the index and middle finger separation a ball. I moved away from that as most people did not recommend it as it is not conducive to a strong wrist movement. I have always been a very over...

I'm 100% pushing it. I have done the Hammer drill for years (all the way back in the DGR days with the fingers taped up with duct tape picture) and a disc has never felt like that for me, it has never felt heavier on the outside edge. It literally feels like I put anti-spin on a disc.

A lot of that does sound similar to me and my experience. I'm a left handed baseball hitter and could stick... nothing translated to RHBH. I was a left handed hockey player with a good shot and nothing translated there either. Have a good right throwing arm but never had a forehand. Something...

I was a baseball player with a decent arm in my high school days. Can still throw a baseball, football, etc. relatively well. Yeah, you're probably right about the forehand. I just don't get it. It wobbles, it looks weird, it feels weird and unnatural. Maybe I should get some meat hooks and...

1. Yes I'm doing something very wrong because I have SO MUCH wobble. 2. That's what I felt too. 3. I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around that.

I tried it out (video above). It felt awkward but stronger... seemed to be just as wobbly though.

This just blew up this morning. I will be going back through and responding to comments and asking some clarifying questions. But I headed out to the field to work on all of these great suggestions. And it went... terribly. This was an extremely frustrating session. So much so that I almost...

OK, I'm messing around with it and definitely feeling the pinch point at the first knuckle of my index finger. Definitely going to mess with it in the field today but here's some pics of what feels solid to me.

I will certainly give it a try. What are you doing with the pinky and ring fingers? Off the disc? Against the disc(if so, where on the finger)?

You are not stepping on any toes whatsoever. Please share your input! This Overthrow video is what I'm trying to model my grip after.

1. I have adjusted my grip (a few weeks ago) trying to get a more to combat this. But I've definitely gotten lax and need to refocus on squeezing. 2. This has been on my list of stuff-that-is-obviously-wrong-with-my-throw-but-I-have-not-known-how-to-adress, so will try to be more cognizant. Is...

So got back out to field today, trying to work on a higher reachback and the toe up plant foot. It was… a character building day. The toe up was alright, just need to keep getting the reps in and making sure I'm going up and down and not rotating early. The reachback was way harder than I...
