Three Ways to Improve Your Sidearm in Disc Golf

Three common sidearm form mistakes I have identified with Stokely Method students that create the most significant improvement when we correct the technique.

As someone who is an only-backhand player, and has been wanting to learn a correct sidearm, this has been a MAJOR help! Thanks Scott

[Patchs]

This video still resonates three years later. You’re the man Scott!

Genuinely the most helpful disc golf tutorial I've seen on YouTube, and I basically learned how to play from YouTube.

Love the way Scott teaches the techniques behind throwing! Breaks it down so the mechanics of it make sense.

For someone struggling with a sidearm, you just changed my whole outlook on the throw. Instead of dreading going to practice sidearms, I'm looking forward to getting out and trying your tips

2 years later and this is still one of the best forehand videos, thank you for this!!

[Beeray]

As someone who can't throw sidearm for anything but approaches, I NEEDED #2 so bad.

I have been playing disc golf for twenty years and never knew some of these things. Sidearm has always been a weakness in my game. Thanks, Scott.

I have been throwing a sidearm for decades and these tips are getting me excited to improve!

[FrigginCatsBruh]

It's extremely impressive that you do these in one take. A testament to what a great teacher you are Scott!

People are recommending this video everywhere. This is a gem, thanks.

The best disc golf teacher on the planet.

Thank you for the great content and thank you for keeping the commercials minimal. It makes watching your videos more playable

Stokely is the most genuine guy in disc golf. I've always loved watching him play and his advice is spot on. I took every bit of his sidearm advice and applied it to my forehand. Now, it's so much better. Thanks Stokes!!!

Dude, you are the authority on disc golf lessons. Nobody explains things as clearly as you. \m/

[justinh.]

Sweet! The baseball analogy makes sense. Can't wait to try it tomorrow.

[ERICWAGNERSLUCID]

I have friends who told me how well you play, but I'd never had the good fortune of meeting you myself. The stories of your distance are legendary. Now I begin to see why. Thank you for help.

Great tips! Saw Ulibarri do a video to develop the wrist snap by throwing the disc 20 ft. and getting it to spin on the ground.

It's funny when I first started playing. Sidearm was the easiest one to learn. But I love your videos. Thanks for making them. They are very helpful
