A frisbee or disc is used with a backhand or forehand throw on a disk golf course in order to get score points at the disk golf basket. The sport is played in a disk golf league, at tournaments or just for fun with friends. 

A Pocket Size Disc Golf Score Keeper is a handy way to keep score of who is going over or under par.

1. The Forehand
The forehand is also referred to as the flick, two-finger, and side-arm throw. Momentum comes from the flick of the wrist. This is done by holding the disc out to the side with your index and middle finger on the underside of the disc and then singing your arm forward and whipping your wrist in a motion similar to the motion of rat tailing someone with a towel.

2. Hammer
The hammer is gripped just like the forehand but the disc is then brought overhead and thrust forward and somewhat upwards with a wrist flick. The motion is very similar to throwing a baseball... or hitting something with a "hammer."

3. Scoober
A variant of the forehand throw, the scoober, is similar to the hammer and thrown from a backhand stance. The release of the scoober typically more flat than the release of a hammer but the flight path is very similar to the hammer. Used to throw over defenders, the scoober is usually a short 10 - 20 yard throw. While holding the disc with a forehand grip turn the disc over so it's belly side up, and bring the disc across your body. Lead the throw with your elbow and flick the disc forward.

4. High Release
A variation of the backhand, this throw releases the disc above the throwers shoulders to get around a defender.

5. Backhand
This throw is done when you curl your arm around the disc and tuck it into your body then straightening your arm releasing the disc in the appropriate direction with a final flick of the wrist. The thrower should remember to step into the throw for maximum power upon release.

6. Thumber
The thumber gets its name from the grip of this throw with the thumb holding the disc on the inside of the rim and the other four fingers on the top of the disc. The disc is released with an overhand or sidearm making sure to flick the wrist through the finish.

7. Blade
The blade is a flat vertical throw used to get over a defender's head. The disc is held the same as in a forehand throw and projected up and forward holding the disc perpendicular to the ground.

8. Overhand
The overhand throw is like a backward backhand throw. The disc is held with four fingers on the top of the disc and your thumb underneath. The disc is then brought from behind your back around to the front with your knuckles facing up. You then flick your wrist rotating the disc counterclockwise and propelling it forward.  

9. Duck Ultimate Frisbee Throws
This throw is similar to the "Overhand" throw in that you hold the disc with four fingers on top of the disc and your thumb wraps underneath, but the disc is rotated the opposite direction, however. The duck is thrown with the disc pointing towards the thrower and is then whipped with the wrist and forearm in the desired direction of travel. Like the overhand, this throw is usually only used in a quick and catch and release situation.

10. Chicken Wing
Another backhand variation, the chicken wing throw, is gripped the same and released the same as the backhand but the disc is always kept on the right side of the hip (for right-handers) instead of reaching across the body.
