Getting Started

Being a basketball player I know the importance of a jump shot and how well of a shooter most players want to be, like myself. In the game of basketball, it has always been a players desire to score a numerous amount of points. In order to achieve this, it requires player shooting the ball from many distances. You could say that shooting the ball effectively has became an art that many basketball players are trying to perfect. First I must say I am not the greatest shooter in the world, but through research I will give you the keys to become a consistent jump shooter along with trying to become one myself. Assisting you in becoming a high percentage shooter, my goal is to provide information on the anatomy, mechanics, and equipment to enable you for high performance on the basketball court. Shooting a basketball consists of hand placement, stance, arch at which the ball should be shot, and velocity at which it leaves the hand. Just by becoming knowledgeable of the mechanical science behind basketball can make you great or maybe just a better shooter overall.
