I know there's members on here who have a lot info to share about this topic. Please, i repeat please, post tips on Judo throws from the clinch(over-under hook position, etc.) There's many variations on hip throws that utlilize leg sweeps, all of which can be done without a Gi. Ive done hip throws in practice and in a match once but i dont know the details and the intracacies of the technique. I basically tie up, lower my level, get "hip to hip" and lift/pull using a good amount of effort....There's obviously much more to it than that. PLEASE give tips and "walkthroughs". I dont have alot of opportunity to train these days except to do pushups and traditional sports. Feel free to post!!!

There's less effort involved in the hip throw if you can ensure that your hip level is lower than your opponent when you get in position. Then straighten your legs & the opponent's set up for a throw with very little strength needed. To get this 'automatic', my training partner & I used to do sets of twenty. After a while (often when you're pretty exhausted) this seems to fall into place.
A personal favourite is the uchi mata, but instead of your arm going behind the head (a BJJ player will get your back from there), go for the underhook instead - it's much safer, but still a 'big' throw. You can even use the arm you've got underhooked to push behind his furthest shoulder as you throw.
Hope this helps.

I myself am fairly good at foot sweeps with no gi. The easiest one is from an collar elbow tie up. If you have your right hand on your opponent's neck then slip your left hand inside the tie up and use it to chop your opponent's right arm then armdrag that arm. Step with your right leg, and ram into your opponent with your shoulder while at the same time you sweep his right foot with yours. It's kinda hard to explain through the internet so good luck to you to try and figure it out through my horrible directions :/.
Note:I like to do a slight variation when I do a foot sweep, instead of using the standard part of your foot to sweep, I like to use my heel to sweep people. I find that there's a lot more power behind that sweeping motion if I use my heel so that's what I use.
