Angle 1: Rear View - Camera is Directly Behind Shooter

In my first shot, my shooting hand is directly behind the ball with the two shooting fingers pointing upwards, in the middle.The off-hand is at about 8 o'clock on the ball when it should be at 9. I released the ball partially with my off hand when I should only use my shooting hand. The off hand ended up in a horizontal position at release which means that my shot may have been crooked as off-hand interference had occurred. The shooting hand should only be used.

Angle 2: Straight On - Camera Under Basket

In my second shot, my arm was just a little too far to the left of my body when it should be more straight, in alignment with my body. My finger, elbow, knee and toe are not in the same plane. My elbow had ended up above my eye level, however I had taken my shooting form down too fast. My fingers point down towards my feet as I end my shot and my off-hand comes off the ball upon release. Again, I have used my off-hand to shoot the ball.

Angle 3: Side View - Camera on Shooting Hand Side

In my third shot, My wrists are cocked back before release. This can cause the ball to create an arc through the air for better accuracy. My feet are in the same line with each other when the left foot should be just back from the right. The ball is kept in front of the body the entire time and when the ball is released, my elbows lie just below my eye level. My off-hand is used to shoot the ball again. 

Conclusion: Thoughts and Improvements On Shooting

What I have noticed through analyzing my three shots is that my off-hand is often used to help me shoot the ball. I should be using only my shooting hand to shoot as I take my other hand off the ball in a vertical plane. I also noticed that I take my shooting form down too fast as I should keep it until the ball touches the hoop. The last point that I seen through all of my shooting positions is that I need to use more of an arc with my shot so that I can have a more accurate shot at the hoop.

Angle 1: Straight on- Camera under basket.  

While taking my shot the ball is brought up on the shooting hand side. Also my finger, elbow, knee and toe are in the same plane but I could have pointed my elbow in towards me more to have it more aligned with my knee and foot. My shooting fingers don't finish pointing completely down, they start off pointing down and at the very last second they kind of flick to the side. After releasing the ball my elbow finishes above eyes and my off- hand comes off the ball just before release.

Angle 2: Rear View- Camera is directly behind shooter.  

The shooting hand is directly behind the ball with my two shooting fingers in the middle. Also my off-hand is at 3 o'clock. When released, the ball is released with one hand. My off-hand is vertical at release which means that I am not shooting with two hands.

Angle 3: Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.  

After releasing my shot, my wrist isn't as cocked as it should be. My foot work is consistent, as you should always have the same consistent motions. Also the ball is kept in front of my body and when the ball is release my elbows are near the eyes.
.


Conclusion: I need to have more arch in my shot and “reach for cookies” with my shooting fingers more. So when I release the ball my wrist isn't flicking to the side.

Angle 1: Straight on- Camera under basket.

On the shot the ball is brought up on my shooting side with one hand. My two shooting fingers kind of went off to the right after the release of the ball, messing up the follow through and causing the ball to not go straight. I released the ball at the right time but i need to work on finishing higher and bringing it up more on the side parallel with my shooting shoulder and knee instead of bringing it to my face.

Angle 2: Rear View- Camera is directly behind shooter.  

The shooting hand is directly behind the ball in this angle and release just at the right time. i have my off hand in the right spot on the ball, on the side so it doesn't interfere with the ball but kind of guides it. I release the ball with just the shooting hand but I need to work on finishing higher and with my follow through towards the rim.

Angle 3: Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.

In this final angle my wrist is cocked but not early enough causing me to have to use more push with my arm instead of my legs. my footwork is consistent but i need to work on not turning my body after the shot. When i finish my shot it is in the perfect spot, my elbow finishes about chun level but i need to work on getting it higher.

Conclusion

In conclusion I have a good form but i need to work on my follow through and were i finish vertically and where i finish with my wrist after the release. I also have to better my power from my legs instead of my arms and i have to better my consistency and focus when shooting.

Angle 1: rear view camera is directly behind shooter

 is the ball released with one hand, no my guide hand is moving in motion with my shooting hand, are my fingers in the middle of the ball, yes my fingers stay to the middle until release. is the off hand at 9 or 3, my off hand is at three therefore i am pushing the ball with two hands and getting to much power therefore my aim is off.

                                     Angle 2 : Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.
Is the wrist cocked before the release, my wrist is cocked all the way up to my eyebrow.from this angle it looks like my foot work is consistent. is my elbow above my eyebrow, no it seems like it is just below and maybe i am rushing the shoot.

                                    Angle 3: Straight on- Camera under basket.  

is the ball brought straight up on the shooting hand side, yes the ball is moving up that side but my fingers elbows and knees and toes are all in different places so my power is coming from upper body Is the ball released with one-hand, no as i had said that the ball is being pushed toward the net with to much power Is the off-hand vertical at release, yes but my palm is facing the camera and that's a sign i'm using two hands.

conclusion

the end conclusion to my analysis is that i need to work on making sure my arms are being brought in a fluent motion that i am jumping at. also i need to make sure that my shooting fingers are placed in the middle of the ball to insure that the ball is aimed properly. another thing i can use some work on is making sure that i am shooting the ball with one hand.
