Best video ever! With these steps, I have been able to shoot more 3-pointers in games, before I couldn't shoot a single 3, but after this video I became a god like Collin...The G.O.A.T!
Get stronger. Lots of coaches say you can have any range with any strength but this is simply not true. Try and get into the gym more and work on you legs as that's what you use most in your shot(unless your shooting a fadaway).
Guys i actually haven't watched the video so I might not be right about this but at the begining he says that higher arc leads to better percentage and that is right my own coaches and even my dad, all of whom have been professional basketball players say the same thing i can even say so because ever since i changed my shooting form to compliment my arc i have started to hit WAY more shots. I am one week in to the shooting grind and i find mysel falling asleep shooting at night on my bed and i have seen serious progress and i plan on keeping up the work untill i shoot like an nba player. I will make sure to use theese moves if i find them helpful.
Considering only the math, no player will ever have a problem with putting too much arc on his shot. A shot that drops into the basket with a 52 degree entry angle (the center of the ball enters the hoop at a 52 degree angle measured upwards from the horizontal) will have almost the same margin for error as a shot that drops in at say a 45 degree angle. A higher arc exposes a bigger target to the ball, which provides more room for error. However, a higher arc also requires the ball to travel a greater distance in the air. The shot has less room for error when it must travel a greater distance. So there is a tradeoff between target size and distance travelled. When you minimize target size divided by distance travelled, you see the odds improve (mathematically speaking) if you shoot high, but not very much, and if you shoot higher than about a 52 degree entry angle, your odds start to decline. In general, a higher arc is needed when you play on a hoop with very stiff rims. If you ever played on a hoop with double rims, you know that if the ball just barely ticks the rim it is likely to bounce out. A higher arc increase the chances that the ball will drop in swish, since the optimal entry angle for swishing the shot is about 55 degrees rather than 52 degrees. The 52 degree angle is optimal for making the shot which allows for the ball to barely tick the front rim or rebound downwards off the back rim. Also, it is often best to use the backboard , when playing with very stiff rims because friction between the ball and the board reduces the speed of the shot (softens it) so that it is less likely to hit the rim so hard if it is a little off. When you play on a court with very soft rims, you can get away with a lower arc. Although it is less likely to go in swish, it is also less likely to bounce as far away if it is slightly off target. Playing on soft rims may be good for your ego but you will quickly get frustrated when you play at the park on double rims until you learn you have to use the board more often and shoot higher. The problem with shooting with very high arc is it is just a matter of practicality for a tired ballplayer. It takes more energy to shoot high, and energy is often in short supply in a fiercely fought game. That said, you can still get a high arc if you use good technique. People say that shooting is all in the legs. It may seem that way, but it in fact your shooting arm provides most of the ball speed generated in your shot - not your legs. To understand that, consider how high the ball would go if you didn't use your arm when you shoot, then consider how high your shot will go if you don't use your legs. If you don't use your arm, the ball will not go higher than your own body at the top of your jump. But if you keep your legs stiff and just stroke the ball with your arm and wrist, you can send the ball much higher than that! So how can that be if your legs do practically all the work? Most shooting gurus will tell you that shooting is all in your legs because that is where your biggest muscles are. Sorry, that's not how it works. Yes your legs are stronger than your shooting arm but consider the mass that your legs must force upward when you jump. The mass of your entire body! Your arm only has to overcome the resistance of your arm and the ball, which is much, much less. Shooting gurus who say that the legs do practically all the work take the shooting stroke for granted. Players generally shoot with a consistent stroke so there is not a lot of variability in the ball speed your arm and wrist generates. You extend your arm and snap your wrist and the speed generated from that depends on the strength and quickness of your shooting arm and how long your arms and fingers are. But when you use your legs in combination, the ball speed greatly increases depending on the time you release the ball, which is greatly variable. Sometimes you will shoot just as your feet leave the floor and sometimes you will shoot at the top of your jump. If you are very strong and athletic, you may even be able to hang in the air in close and shoot on the way down, which I have seen Michael Jordan do on highlight films. If you do the math, you will see that releasing the ball just very slightly before the top of the jump ( a small fraction of a second) greatly influences the height and distance the ball travels - because that speed COMBINES (multiplies) with the speed generated from your stroke. The two speeds don't just add together, they MULTIPLY. That's why it appears as though your legs do most of the work. Many old school shooting gurus insist that you should release the ball at the top of the jump and insist that is what NBA players do. That is not exactly true, although it may be very close. That's what it may feel like and that's what it may look like, but in fact if you release the ball just a tiny fraction of a second before the top of the jump, you cannot detect any difference when you look at a player's shot in slow motion replay. But that tiny fraction of a second makes a big difference regarding how high and far the ball travels, due to this multiplying affect. In reality, your upper body and lower body are both essential and must work together to get a good arc. The legs are essential for greatly increasing the arc and the distance the ball travels while still shooting with a smooth stroke. Good technique is all about getting your body into position to shoot as early as possible before you reach the top of your jump. You don't even have to jump that high. You just have to shoot EFFICIENTLY to have good range. To shoot efficiently, DON'T SLOUCH your shoulders over before you jump, don't slouch your shoulders over at the set point (which is when you start your stroke), and don't slouch your shoulders over as you shoot. Go up strong and stay strong and still - hold that strong posture in the air from start to finish. If you slouch your shoulder over in your stance, it will take you longer to raise up out of that stance. Valuable upward momentum you impart to the ball that comes from your legs - that helps the ball go higher and farther - rapidly dissipates during that time. You are likely to shoot a line drive. Just bend SLIGHTLY at the waist before you jump. It is difficult to not bend at the waist at all when you bend your knees but keep your shooting shoulder up as high as you can. Secondly, jump with the intention of getting your shooting shoulder back at the set point and MAINTAIN THAT POSITION until the ball leaves your fingertips. Feel that slight arch in your lower back before you shoot. If you rush, you will shoot before you have established that strong posture and your shot will be erratic - probably an ugly brick. Watch any great shooter and pay close attention to their posture in the air. All great shooters will have their shoulders back and an arch in their lower back and they hold that position throughout the shot. If you are slouched over as you shoot, your shooting arm cannot apply as much force directed upward. To understand that, consider the bench press versus the military press. everyone can lift more when they bench. The reason is that you can apply more force when you extend your arm further outward from your chest, rather than upward. When your shoulders are back and your lower back is arched slightly, you are in position to extend your arm more outward from your chest to achieve a high release point so you can naturally apply more force in your stroke. Get into that position ON EVERY SHOT. And if you shoot while you are still rising in the air, you will shoot with a high arc because the path of the ball depends on the momentum you impart via both your arm and your legs COMBINED.
I disagree with you on the slouching of your shoulder. Actually almost every great shooter has a forward lean where the shoulders are actually over the knees and knees slightly over the toes. You're correct about the slight bend in the waist and also about holding the strong posture though but everything else about the slouching isn't true. Watch every good shooter and stop the frame when they're still on the ground. You'll notice that how deep the bend of the knee is aand waste is usually very small but regardless of mechanics the shoulders are almost universally over the knees as they're going up.
Hey, when increase my arc 2 things happen. 1 I will undershoot and hit the front of the rim and 2. My range decreases massively. How can i fix the first point and what muscles should i work out to increase my range so i can get back to my regular range with the higher arc. Thx so much.
Everytime Im shooting in the 3 points line its always short. Is there a techniques on how to shoot the ball as easy as you guys did? because when i shoot the ball i need to shoot it hard with more force thats why its imposible for me to get the perfect arc.
Steph curry shoots with ease, even from so far away, I do the same thing as you probably because either I'm just not strong enough or I'm not using my legs as much as I should
Xaint Howell another way to tell if you're shooting correctly is to watch the spin on the ball after you release it, it should spin how your holding it, so if your holding the ball with your fingers in the seams it should spin after you release it that way
Yes there is, for the last one. You can throw the ball real hard on the floor lol jk just messing thx for the vid my arc literly went below the rim now my arc is getting up there
have your hand bent far back where its comfortable and the ball is completely above your hand and have space between the ball and your hand and shoot the ball up
Force the ball into the wrist of the shooting hand with the off hand, So creating an unnatural tension in the wrist before you shoot. This should naturally allow you to flick on the shot without too much thought - helped me
one issue I got once I try with my high arc / arm straight up is my shoulder kinda locks and pops or something when going for the flick or release of the ball
@ShotMecanics hello coach, I am trying to practice my shooting and my shot is very inconsistent. I try to shoot the ball in a way it makes it easier to make an arc. My arms aren't strong so when I try to shoot it in a good straight motion form, I either airball or just miss. I feel like I am not strong enough to shoot it because I cannot make a solid high arc so its like I'm throwing it with 2 hands but not really. I am 16, 5'9 and a half and weigh 120 pounds. If there's a way I can contact you through Instagram or such please tell me. Btw anyone wanna help with this no problem, please!😊
Just Issa maybe ur feet are square facing to the rim. A good way to get that arm strength is to tilt ur feet positioning a little to release the tension in ur arm. Even I’ve been through that and tilting helps. Also , try lifting some weight and do about 20-30 pushups a day for that easy strength gain.
My coach said I have a clown shot and it went high in the air so I put it down. Now I realize why I'm missing more shots with the low arc. Looks like my coach was wrong
Master iNDeed you should fully extend your arm for every shot you take but it’s really what you are most comfortable with as long as you are consistent with your jump shot you don’t have to change it
Actually, the more arc your shot has doesn't mean the higher chance it has of going in; for a low arc, it's harder to judge how high the ball needs to go, but for a high arc, it's harder to judge how far the ball needs to go. The best arc possible (obviously that doesn't mean you should change your arc) is a 90° arc. That means that if you drew a line from the center of the rimb to your set point, your shot should create a 45° angle with that line. Your shot's arc degrees is always twice as much as your shot's angle degrees. For example, a 90° shot will end up with a 180° arc, where the ball comes straight back down. A 0° shot makes a 0° arc, actually it's more than 0° but it's less than 0 compared to the basket. A 180° shot is a backward 0° shot, ending up with the same thing, a 360° arc, basically 0° but backwards... Now That's not always true because your set point is not on the ground and the basket is higher than your set point... So your 45° shot will be a little bit more than 45° compared the the ground, or the perpendicular of the direction of gravity. I don't know if that made any sense, but a 45° shot for a 90° arc is the perfect balance between distance amd height. But, that's not accounting for the third dimension, left or right, but that has to do with your body alignment...
Before yu shoot tuck your elbow in to your hip area so whenever your arms rise up your elbow so when you do this your elbow will be in line with the rim nba players like jayson Tatum use this
I'm havving problems with shooting because even doe I'm an accurate shooter I get airballs and brickshots and I use my lower body like my feet and legs to support my shot but it still dosent work can you guys help
how do I score shots over tall huge defenders cause im like 5'8 I sometimes have trouble with that and whats the key for me to make more shots and get better at dribbling without looking down
Why do u dip so deeply, I understand a little dip because I dip to, but I feel like if u keep the same angle between your forearm and ur bicep as you bring it up it'll increase your consistency?
My previous arc average was about 5%, after tweeting my shot with this video, I get around 39% of my shots.. that’s just two hours worth of this workout too
when I shoot, where should I place the ball when I release? I see that some players bring the ball to the top of their heads and some bring it to their foreheads like Curry.
@@nathangabriel4402 the hooks. hooks is those things that hold the net. There is always three hooks facing you wherever you stand when looking att the basket ball hoop. All you gotta do is get the basketball right over those hooks and shoot.
Please help i have long arms, but im not like the big man super long arms and I am having difficulty in getting a one motion shot, I already have a good foot positioning in my shot(in my opinion) I just cant seem to get a smooth release.
Or bend your knees and jump while having your shot moving up to your set point that usually gets you more power if that doesn’t work just watch one of his videos
simranxyzss whatever you are most comfortable with and with your arc what I do is make sure my hand looks like it is on the bottom of the ball then I snap it forward that lets me get more arc
Hey coach, i recently changed my setpoint from below my chin to about under my eyeball level. I’ve been so used to shooting with mostly arms that to compensate for my new setpoint i release more forward. I feel inconsistent and i know they say if it aint broke dont fix it but i just really want to do post fades or not be able to be afraid to shoot with a hand running at me in my face. Of course i feel more comfortable and effective with my old form but i just dont want my game to be limited by my setpoint’s inibility to shot create. What should i do?
So helpful, thanks a lot man after a week of doing this I feel much more confortable with my shoot and went from 5/10 to 7-8/10 triples

make sure ur jumping enough and put it all in one motion, dont just shoot with only ur arms or only ur legs.
Be on your toes, bring the ball lower next touching your tie also bend forward so that your nose is over knees
My problem is weird I can shoot far but I always shoot with a high arc
Thank you coach I'm struggling with my shooting because i dont have enough arc. Now i understand how arc is important.

You can also use those 180 hops from farther away to work on hour shot timing.

I am two motion shooter how do I fix that?
Just try and speed up your shot. When you speed up your shot your shot naturally turns one motion.
sir, you taught me how to shoot higher arc, but you didn''t tell me the perfect arc.
Why do u dip so deeply, I understand a little dip because I dip to, but I feel like if u keep the same angle between your forearm and ur bicep as you bring it up it'll increase your consistency?

How to stay balanced for jump shots
My arc is ok, but the problem is sometimes not always, my shot is short cuz of high arc
gabriel cabral yeah bro its all about imagination.
My previous arc average was about 5%, after tweeting my shot with this video, I get around 39% of my shots.. that’s just two hours worth of this workout too
when I shoot, where should I place the ball when I release? I see that some players bring the ball to the top of their heads and some bring it to their foreheads like Curry.
Donovan Le to be honest it’s just where you are most comfortable but above the eyebrow is optimal
ok thx for the help
I'm just bad at shooting. There's something wrong with my shot but i can't figure it out.
Coach were should i aime when i shot
but where on the basket
@@nathangabriel4402 the hooks. hooks is those things that hold the net. There is always three hooks facing you wherever you stand when looking att the basket ball hoop. All you gotta do is get the basketball right over those hooks and shoot.
have you done ben Simmons?
Has this really worked for anyone
My arc is straight but not far enough to hit the rim..it airballs
Uhh work out
I keep messing up because it’s windy as a mug outside 😔
Where is that Kelsey Plum video
Please help i have long arms, but im not like the big man super long arms and I am having difficulty in getting a one motion shot, I already have a good foot positioning in my shot(in my opinion) I just cant seem to get a smooth release.
Mist Frost bend your knees and have your shot at your set point at the same time the shoot
Or bend your knees and jump while having your shot moving up to your set point that usually gets you more power if that doesn’t work just watch one of his videos
ok Thanks I'll try that
Yeah same as u bro i got a 6foot 6 span it is hard to shoot with a span bruh how does kd do it
Bacon Blaster doesn't kd Like put it to to the side then it goes to his set point sorry for my bad english
My arc is way to high, can someone help me. If I shoot with a low arc I don’t feel like I’m extending my elbow all the way.
simranxyzss when your releasing, bring the ball a bit higher than usual.
simranxyzss where do you release the ball from
simranxyzss whatever you are most comfortable with and with your arc what I do is make sure my hand looks like it is on the bottom of the ball then I snap it forward that lets me get more arc
I always watch your videos before my games and i constantly drop over 20
Tropiczz ok bench warmer
What if im shooting to high?
Can you guys please do a breakdown of Grayson Allens jumpshot?? Please please please

hi
I don't need to fix my arc! My arc is better than steph and jordan
Lol how do you have a good arc when you averaged 2ppg? Teach me.
Didn't you have like (4)points a game not too many points to be bragging on!

My shot gets broken when I had a high arc
Finally im early
People be saying my jump shot looks like a thrust fuck,And i don't know how to fix it i mean i make it but my form is kinda ugly.
Hey coach, i recently changed my setpoint from below my chin to about under my eyeball level. I’ve been so used to shooting with mostly arms that to compensate for my new setpoint i release more forward. I feel inconsistent and i know they say if it aint broke dont fix it but i just really want to do post fades or not be able to be afraid to shoot with a hand running at me in my face. Of course i feel more comfortable and effective with my old form but i just dont want my game to be limited by my setpoint’s inibility to shot create. What should i do?
my arc is too high
VGF
