Welcome to the Forehand Blueprint where we will go through some advanced points on practicing a forehand shot.

Let's talk about what a forehand is and why you should throw with this technique.

It all starts by taking the disc to your hand. Here we go through the basics of gripping the disc the way it doesn't slip out of your hand.

The disc selection is crucial in every throw. Eric Oakley talks here about his way of practicing and what discs he wants you to use when progressing through your training.

Let's talk about the progression and the way to master the forehand technique so we can save time and get results more faster.

Here we check out the correct way of finding your stance and talk about how this makes things easier for us.

Let's talk about how the practice should be done. There is a certain progression here, so let's find out what Oakley has to say about that.

The easiest mind trick to help you aim is to Follow Forward First. Let's see what Oakley means by this.

In this segment, we will practice the basic forehands from a standstill position to establish a frame of reference to build on.

The simplest way to get forehand in your arsenal is to practice it during your rounds.

We start with the basic shape of a hyzer shot.

The next angle is the flat release.

The last one is the anhyzer release angle.

Let's recap the things we went through and talk about a couple of things to look out for when practicing on the field.

Now we wrap up the first steps and move on! Oakley gives you the last tips for this segment.

Let's start the next step in our progression, which is adding a short step to gain more momentum for the throw.

What we have worked with and learned when practicing the first steps are very useful on the set to come. Don't forget to use the knowledge when we move forward with the progression!

Let's add that one step to our arsenal. It is an amazing tool to have, plus it's a good base for the longer set of steps later.

Here we practice the step together with Eric Oakley.

There is a difference in how the discs behave depending on the style of throw. Here Oakley discusses the differences in between these two styles.

Let's build up the wrist snap since it is a crucial part of a forehand throw.

Let's get to know your hyzer shot a bit better. Here we have more wider range of hyzers for you to practice.

Let's see that short hyzer flick in action on an actual fairway.

Let's study the ground action a bit. Here we see how the disc can move by skipping. Very useful skill to have when you are on the course.

Now we go overboard and work on some flare skips. It's also good shot to have in your bag, but it's also great to practice the different ways to get your disc working for you.

Here is an example of a hyzer shot on a teeshot. Fairly straightforward 83m or 272ft, but the headwind makes it harder. Let's see how Oakley makes it work!

Let's look at the flat release. Here we would like to have a little bit of travel laterally but still have that predictable fade at the end.

Similiar shot to a backhand putter anhyzer and a very useful one to cover the other end of the spectrum. And it's super cool to see the disc gliding gracefully and panning out softly!

Oakley has found himself in a difficult situation on a fairway. Let's see how the sidearm anhyzer gets him out of this one!

We have added another layer to our progression. Keep returning to these on the field before moving on so you have the one step dialed in!

Now we are at the final leg of our progression race. Here we add the final ingredient, which is the full steps to gain more momentum.

Let's talk a moment about different styles of run-up or steps. There is no right way to do this, so let's hear what Oakley teaches about this.

You can't run before you know how to walk. Here are the basics for the steps, which involve simply walking forward.

Now we up the pace and start shuffling our steps. Ensure you continue to aim for a smooth and effortless throw.

The stepping style made famous by the legend Nate Sexton. Maybe it will work for you, too!

This is the graduation day! This shot is the ultimate pinnacle of a forehand shot, and when you master this, you can do anything you want with the disc.

Here is a perfect example of a fairway that becomes easy if you have that 100m / 330ft flex forehand in your pocket. Let's look at how Oakley plays this.

Let's talk about the problem of rounding, see what it looks like, and how to make sure you are fixing your errors in general.

Next common challenge is to avoid the wrist roll. Oakley talks about where it comes from and how to fix the issue.

Sometimes we have balance issues, and it can lead to an incorrect angle of follow-through. Let's look at this hooking motion and how to avoid it.

Right tool for the right job, right? You cannot make a fish climb a tree, so make sure you know what your discs are capable of.

Here, we discuss how to keep the correct nose angle and give the disc the best possible chance to work its magic.

Short-arming can be really harmful because you are acting against the force moving through the throw. Oakley tells us what the remedy is for this ailment.

When we lose our rhythm, we lose our throw. Let's talk about how to avoid tempo-related problems.

Thank you for watching, and remember to keep practicing!
