Rhofert Shot Analysis

https://youtu.be/o89UcsFjjVU
Angle 1: Straight on- Camera under basket.  

  • Is the ball brought straight up on the shooting hand side? No because i use my support hand to bring it up to shoot not my shooting hand.
  • Are finger, elbow, knee and toe in the same plane? Yes but most of time my elbow isn't align to my knee.
  • Do the shooting fingers finish pointing down towards your forward foot?Yes thats when i know its not going in when the tip of my fingers isn't straight to the basket.
  • Does your elbow finish near or above your eyes? Yes but sometimes when I think its not going in, my shooting arm goes down by itself.
  • Does the off- hand come of the ball just before release? Yes for most of the time
Angle 2:Rear View- Camera is directly behind shooter.  

  • Is the shooting hand directly behind the ball with the two shooting fingers in the middle? No my shooting hand goes mostly on the right side of the ball
  • Is the off-hand at 9 or 3 o’clock? 9 o'clock
  • Is the ball released with one-hand? Yes everything is good with me releasing the ball with one hand.
  • Is the off-hand vertical at release?  Or is it rotated towards the ball?  What would this mean? Yes, it is most of the time when I'm shooting.

    Angle 3:Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.  
  • Is the wrist cocked before the release? Yes
  • Is the footwork consistent? Yes Ive been told to work on my footwork so it is finally coming out.
  • Is the ball kept in front of the body? Yes, most of the time
  • When the ball is released are the elbows near or above the eyes? Yes but when my arm gets tired it doesnt have any arc to go in the basket.

Conclusion: I think i need to put more "arc" on the ball when I'm shooting a basketball. I need to release my support hand on the ball, way before I shoot the ball.
