[@TheCriminalViolin]

I've never had a problem with being self-aware of my issues and strengths when it comes to basketball, and find myself very observant. I'd argue my biggest problem is that I start thinking too much (and A LOT) whenever I take notice of what works and doesn't work for me when shooting. I've always known the high bounce thing with shooting was a myth (When you're extremely quick to learn how to manipulate momentum to your advantage like myself it becomes obvious immediately). I think for me the biggest challenge shooting is simply maintain a consistent form, and even more so simply shooting from the baseline/corners. There is something so incredibly different in every way shooting from the corners of the court, and I've never once been remotely close to putting my finger on the how and the why it is so intensely different. It doesn't seem logical it should be, but holy hell is it my bane. It haunts me to an extent.

[@kyledahlin7467]

You should take not from all players jumpshots but everyone has their own set point so work on finding yours and just do what is natural and for range it just takes practice to know how much strength you need to put into your shot

[@bepe4279]

@@kyledahlin7467 OK, will do.

Damage The Darmanitan this should definitely help! So the power gauge will have to come from muscle memory... For forms I would check out Steph Curry, Damian Lillard, and James Harden 👍🏼

Funny how last week all my individual practices with a coach have been about fixing the exact same problem you explain in this video and it instantly increased my accuracy. It felt effortless, like I wasn't putting to much power into shooting but the ball was perfectly making it to the basket. Now I just need to get used to it, I still try to pull up as high as I can by instinct.

[@PunchmadeDee]

[@ShotMechanics]

IcedBaller _playz 💯💯💯 My man!

[@ghohman]

Thanks for the video, Coach Colin. I went to a PGC camp this weekend where shot speed was a focus. They had players start with the ball in your shooting hand, palm-up, waist-height, and use one fluid motion, releasing like throwing a football (index finger release). Definitely creates a more fluid motion. Ps: Have you tried the HomeCourt app to track your shooting accuracy? Thoughts?

[@ShotMechanics]

Nice tips - real Consistent shooting comes with rhythm. Lots of great shooters that Jump high on their release ex- Kyle korver, jj reddick, ray allen. Probably more bad shooters who don’t jump high compared to those that do. It all starts with getting your feet set and shoulders prepared to shoot. Shoot the ball as high or low as you want. Just be consistent

This is very true

[@elainebolden7227]

You don’t have to jump high with spot shooting. Also the guards that you were talking about All have something very valuable in common. They handle the ball really well and they have great deception. I believe each player is different based off the gifts and skills that they have. Westbrook game was predicated on driving and pulling up that’s why he jumps high. He doesn’t do a lot of crafty dribbling because he is so fast. He’s a energy player and that’s his game. I’ve seen countless of people who don’t play in the NBA that have good shots but they can’t get their shut off or consistent on good defenders, so I believe it depends on a combination of knowing how to get good angles for your shot and having great balance. Shooting Is the easy part but the preparation is really important.

[@sgt.hollowpoint6968]

I never knew this, but I shoot like you explained in the video.

[@matthewwisniew9241]

Can you do a video on how to stay calm on catch and shoot shots in game? I tend to get worried and release my shot way to early, but it doesn’t happen if I dribble into my shot.

[@christophercalhoun2701]

I don't think a video will help you. Are you shooting fast because the defense is recovering and you think they will block you? If that's the case you need to estimate their distance from you and analyze your opponent. Some defenders never jump for the ball block and some always jump for the ball block. If your defender is the type that doesn't jump then you can take your time. If he is a shot blocker, you should pass it out and reset for a better shot unless you're good at ball pumps and can get the and 1. Hope that helps

[@secondmovermusic4319]

I think its really about jumping powerful and shooting it on your way up. By powerful I don't mean high necessarily but more like a quick jump.
