Chapter
1: BUILDING PROPER SHOOTING TECHNIQUE
In
Better Shooting's
first chapter, legendary Coach Rick
Torbett gives a basic overview of
proper shooting technique. You could
say he put the summary first. The
chapter is divided into 4 parts, such
as Hand Position
and Feet
Position.
Coach Torbett also explains key
concepts such as where you should
start your shot, how high to jump when
shooting, and at what point during the
jump a player should release the ball.
The chapter is perfect for
coaches or parents of young players
looking to teach the basics of
shooting to their child. However, even
the most experienced shooters and
coaches usually pick up at least a
couple points from chapter 1.
Chapter
2: USING YOUR EYES TO MAKE MORE SHOTS
Chapter
2 is an in-depth study of what may be
the most overlooked aspect of great
shooting - vision. In the opening
sequence, Coach Torbett states
"Shooting is an eye hand
coordination activity, and lots can be
said about the hands, but often times
not enough said about your vision,
about your eyes." He goes on to
explain exactly where your eyes should
focus when you shoot, as well as
several specific methods players can
use to improve their
"Bull's-Eye" vision. Chapter
2 can be beneficial for everyone from
pros to kids. The vast majority of the
content borders on revolutionary,
since vision is so rarely discussed
in-depth by shooting instructors.
Check out the clip to the right, for
example.
Chapter
3: UNDERSTANDING AND BUILDING PROPER
FOOTWORK
As
chapter 2 is a detailed study of
vision, chapter 3 takes a look at
proper footwork. Coach explains the
only two methods used to set the feet
before shooting. He then details which
method should be used in various game
situations. For players having trouble
developing proper footwork or having
problems with balance, chapter 3 also
gives step by step training methods to
learn proper footwork... Better
Shooting
not only teaches proper form, but also
tells you exactly how
to perfect your form! No matter
your age or ability, you must have
proper footwork mastered to become a
great shooter. The feet are essential
to attaining both a lightning quick
release and a high percentage. It's
amazing how many players (even at
basketball's highest levels) have poor
footwork. This causes missed shots,
traveling violations, and even a slow
release. But with Better
Shooting,
any player can become sound - from the
ground up.
Chapter
4: COMMON BAD HABITS AND HOW TO GET
RID OF THEM
In
the video's longest chapter, Coach
Torbett explains twelve bad habits
that can cause players to miss shots,
get their shot blocked, or have a slow
release. Only a rare few shooters have
absolutely perfect form, so everybody
can benefit from chapter 4. It's also
interesting to note that some players
who think they're in slumps have
actually just developed a bad habit.
Once the bad habit is diagnosed and
fixed, their shooting percentage
dramatically jumps up! In each
section, coach first explains proper
form in respect to the bad habit.
Second, a player demonstrates the bad
habit . Third, Torbett gives reasons
why players may develop the habit. And
finally, he discusses a method or
technique players can use to fix the
bad habit.
Chapter
5: TRAINING WITH A PARTNER
In
chapter 5, Coach Torbett gives four
methods players can use to train with
a partner to improve their shot. One
of the methods is termed Fly-Bys,
a fast moving drill in which players
shoot while being distracted by the
partner. Many players shoot great in
practice, but have trouble in real
games. Fly-Bys
can fix that problem, and Coach
Torbett explains how. Chapter
5 includes a plethora of small but key
points sprinkled throughout its five
minutes. So even if you have no way of
training with a partner, there's
plenty of information you'll get from
the chapter. For example, Coach
Torbett explains his revolutionary
concept of Biofeedback,
which players can use to develop a
"feel for shooting!"
Chapter
6: SPECIAL HINTS TO IMPROVE YOUR SHOT
Chapter
6 presents seven specific hints that
will improve your shot. There are
sections titled Shooting
from the Post,
Dragging a
Foot to Shorten a Shot, and
Gaining
Power on Long Range Shots.
Chapter 6 also explains the key to
shooting those tricky, short shots. The
hints in chapter 6 can be applied by
players of all abilities. Have you
never been very good at bank shots, or
would you like a little more power on
long shots, or do you get stripped
when you shoot from the post? If so,
chapter 6 will make the difference!
Chapter
7: MISCONCEPTIONS
In
Chapter 7, Coach Torbett discusses, in
great depth, four misconceptions about
the finer principles of shooting. The
misconceptions include the often
taught phrases Get
the Ball Above Your Head,
Stagger
Your Feet,
and Shoot
with Your Fingertips.
Chapter 7 is targeted towards
the player, coach, or parent who truly
wants to understand the art of
shooting a basketball. It's amazing
how many advanced basketball minds
watch the chapter and realize they've
been making a costly mistake for
years. Through Coach Torbett's
detailed explanation, they come to
understand the mistake itself, why
they're making this mistake, how it's
hurting their shot, and how to ensure
they fix the problem.
