No, you have to prepare the soil to receive the seed. Otherwise, most will
just wash away. If the soil isn't tough, scratch it with a bow rake first.
Then tamp the soil lightly after seeding. Then lightly water is without
disturbing the soil surface late in the evening hours.

If using strictly your hand, go get a bucketful of sand to practice with
first. Idea is to uniformly spread the sand or seed.

What's the best method of spreading the seed out by hand ?

In mid July? You live in Alaska?
