Dr. Hal Wissel Coaching Shooting Confidence Rhythm

Confidence is the most important factor in shooting. To help your confidence, keep your follow through straight up until the ball reaches the rim. This is not only mechanically correct, but more importantly you will look and act like a shooter. It also helps your confidence to understand that the basket is big. Over three and one-half balls fit in the rim. Developing confidence takes daily, specific, measurable goal setting and correct practice. The second most important factor in shooting is rhythm. Your shot should be smooth and rhythmical rather than mechanical. All parts of your shot should flow together in a sequential rhythm. To help our rhythm and range we use a down-and-up action of our legs. This is vital for developing three-point range and is also important for beginning players learning to shoot at a regulation 10 foot high basket.
