    A question no one ever covers when doing these videos. So before you shoot, it looks like a bottom hand cradle, I see every player that's good do what looks like a bottom hand cradle during their wind up.

      It comes with playing. It takes awhile to get used to it’s just something to work on in your free time. Even tho I’m seven years too late lmao.

    Try practicing on the wall - pass the ball against the wall and when you do make sure the head of your stick never goes lower than the but of your stick. If you do that, the ball can't fall out!

    • @jordanwilkins396
      @jordanwilkins396 8 лет назад +3

      He's just winding up. Everyone does it differently. It doesn't make your shot any better.

  • @MrWinning43
    @MrWinning43 11 лет назад

    It's your wind up. Basically do a "motor-cycle start" motion with your bottom hand, it's helpful for many reasons like keeping the ball in the pocket and overall looking badass.

  • @funnyguyLAX16
    @funnyguyLAX16 11 лет назад

    Set up cones or mark a spot where you want to improve your shot from. Have someone pass you a ball and get a quick shot off. Or set up different cones and dodge/run through them then score

    when your shooting you may be hanging your stick to low when winding up so when you are winding up try to make sure your stick is positioned higher in the air.

    Biggie smalls asked "Whats BEEF?" Well, Samir has the answer...

  • @hrenthor
    @hrenthor 9 лет назад

    I'm relatively new to lacrosse and I got a quick question: How come some people cradle with their lower hand on the stick when they are in the shooting position. When a person's stick is behind them, up in the air, almost behind them, and i see some players cradling with their bottom hand. Is it important you cradle with your lower hand?

    • @LaPomplemousse
      @LaPomplemousse 9 лет назад

      it just makes sure the ball is settled. if you cradle with ur top hand in shooting position you lose way too much power and end up in bad form

    So all you need to do to pick a corner is look at it but it doesn't work so for instance let's say I wanted to roof the shot left or right I have to keep my eyes on the corner of the net if someone could help me I would appreciate

    • @joshuadawson8259
