WITH TONS OF SMALL SHOOTING DETAILS
STEP 1 - POSITION 1 / STARTING POINT
Everything we do as a shooter matters! In most cases - an inconsistent shooter has an inconsistent starting point. In this step, we teach players how to align to their target, proper base, posture, hand placement, wrist load, and how to create power. This leads to having a firm starting point. Mastering this step is crucial to becoming an ELITE shooter!
STEP 2 - ADDING YOUR GUIDE HAND
Most basketball players start by shooting on too high of a hoop at an early age before learning proper mechanics. In most cases, this causes a two handed shot that leads to inconsistency as they get older! In this step, we teach players the purpose of each hand (Shooting Hand/Guide Hand) + how the strong hand should do most of the work in a shot.
STEP 3 - THE SHOT LINE
The shortest distance between two points is a straight line! In order to become a straight shooter, players need to move the basketball through each shooting position in the straightest line possible. In this step, we teach players how to start the ball on the target line, move the basketball upward in a straight line to the set point, and how to finish all on the shot line! The main goal - Become a straight shooter!
STEP 4 - ADDING POWER
Every player would love to have more range! Having deep range is not just for NBA players - young players can have it too with the correct fundamentals. In this step, we will teach players how to add power in their shot by having the correct sequence. Think about it, the worst shot in basketball is a short miss with a flat arc. Let us help the trajectory of your shot while adding range!
STEP 5 - PIECING IT TOGETHER
In this final step, players will piece together everything they learned in steps 1-4. By this point every part of the shot should feel more natural. Players will notice that all of the work put in throughout the program has lead to a confident/consistent shot!
