Important Outside Shooting Information
Coach Baumgartner has taught shooting and offensive techniques for over 40 years. With this experience, he and his trained shooting instructors are ready to help you with your outside shooting. The techniques, drills, and word usage that they will use to teach you to shoot are the best.After studying the outside shooters from Europe and the very good U.S. outside shooters, it is very easy for Coach Baumgartner to see what all of these players have in common when shooting outside shots. The techniques that the great players use are what we are teaching at our camp with very good success.
What It Takes To Become A Great Outside Shooter
There are basic mechanical parts such as grip, arm alignment, foot position, etc. that
players must use correctly if they want to shoot well. Once you learn how to use these basic parts, then you must concentrate on the essentials in shooting to become a great outside shooter.
We cover the basic mechanical parts of shooting real well at our camps. We explain, show, and drill on correct grip, arm alignment, and footwork, etc. Our one-on-one instructors help players a lot with the basic mechanical parts of shooting. With our teaching procedures we are able to help the very talented player as well as the inexperienced player. Again, once you learn the basics of shooting then to become a great shooter you must be able to do the essentials listed below.
ESSENTIALS FOR GREAT OUTSIDE SHOOTING
1. Stay Balanced
2. Develop Power
3. Develop Timing of Releasing ball
4. Shoot Quickly
5. Shoot Accurately
1. Staying Balanced An Essential In Shooting
To stay balanced a player needs to have good footwork and head and body position . These are some of the basics that help a player to stay balanced which is an essential that needs to be emphasized when teaching any offensive fundamental. Balancing a player in general is one of the main essentials that helps a player to do a fundamental better and easier. Our word usage when drilling does a great job of helping to balance a player while executing offensive fundamentals.
Our drills, techniques, and word usage are very simple and they are constructed to put players into the correct mechanics of shooting in a very easy and natural way.
2. and 3. Developing Power and Timing are Two Very Important Essentials In Shooting
If a player is doing the basic parts of shooting correctly then the two main essentials for creating distance for long range or 3 pt shooting are: 1. Developing Power 2. Developing Timing so the basketball is released at the correct time.
How a player develops power and then times the releasing of the ball so he or she can use this power is one of the most important essential in shooting. So many correct things happen when the basketball is released at the correct time. We have some great techniques for teaching releasing of the ball at the correct time.
Power is gotten from leg power, arm leverage, and finger-wrist power. Again, you must release the ball at the correct time to use this power. We do this easily at our camps.
4. Shooting Quickly An Essential In Shooting
Shooting Quickly is another essential that all great shooters have mastered. You have a problem if you are doing most of the basics and essentials correctly, but can`t get your shot off. Of course, you will need to work on the essential of shooting quicker. At our camps we give techniques that teach players to square up quickly. We also show, drill, and explain the other techniques which players must follow to get their shot off against strong competition.
5. Shooting Accurately An Essential In Shooting
Of course, accuracy in shooting is essential. You must first master the basics of shooting
and then develop a routine for consistency. If you do this you can become an accurate shooter. For example, one part of your routine would be knowing where your shooting pocket is located. By bringing the ball to your shooting pocket at the correct time, you put the ball in the shot line and also help set up correct timing of the shot. Remember, once you start consistantly releasing the ball at the correct time you will automatically start to do a lot of things correctly in shooting. Develop a correct routine so you will become an accurate outside shooter.
We develop a player`s routine for outside shooting at our basketball shooting camps. Our techniques and drills really help a player to easily develop a routine.
