Replicable. Repetition. Revise. These are the 3 pillars of form shooting. Being able to replicate your shooting form, with high repetitions, in different situations and positions on the court, makes a great shooter in a game.

Replicable

What does replicable mean?

\Able to be repeated to obtain a consistent result\

We want to easily reuse our perfect shooting form to score a basket from wherever we want on the court, as many times as we can, by adjusting as little of the mechanics as possible.

Developing a replicable shot comes from understanding the mechanics of a basketball shot.

Here’s a breakdown on the mechanics of a shot (from the top-down):

• Release point (Follow-through)
• Hand Placement (Balance Hand)
• Grip (Fingers)
• Elbows
• Shot Pocket (Where you catch the ball)
• Knee Bend
• Feet Placement

With the general mechanics of a shot, you are now able to identify what is your perfect shooting form (or start developing one). Being a shooter that is aware of their form already makes them a better shooter.

Repetition

Being able to put up big numbers as a shooter requires you to put up numerous shots. Your shooting form should allow you to repeat it as many times as possible without fatiguing yourself in the process.

Revise

When you miss a shot, recognise what went wrong and revise it in your next shot.

As a basketball player, you will be in an infinite number of scenarios. Factors such as fatigue, stress and defence are hard to reproduce during practice. However, having the ability to revise your shot based on the variables of the scenario, can greatly impact your game.
