hey what's good coach Colin castle and today I'm going to give you a jumper hack to help you instantly make more tough shots alright everybody wants to be able to hit more difficult shots right the uzias from the crowd but the problem is anytime you're moving fast and shooting a difficult shot most of the time it's going to be hard to hit right and so this one hack that I'm going to give you with one foot is going to help you hit more shots not only in transition not only when you're on Full Speed move but also if you're trying to hit hard things like step backs pullbacks Etc so essentially what I'm talking about is a simple thing called the foot drag meaning if you watch a lot of great Shooters as they're running and they're getting ready to shoot instead of just catching the ball and going into it they actually drag their back foot on the ground almost like a Rudder as they go into their shot now the reason why they do this is if you drag it's almost like an e-brake on a car right it's slowing down a lot faster and so what a lot of athletes use this for is as they're getting ready to shoot if they drag this foot it'll slow them down get them more on balance for the actual shot that takes place right anytime you're shooting on the Move whether it be a separation move or running a transition you're going to be moving slat sideways or laterally right so if I'm running this direction really fast and I want to catch the ball and I want to transfer this momentum into this momentum if I'm still moving fast it's going to be hard I'm going to drift and it's shooting one tiny drift at the point of the shot can equal you know two three four inches by the time the ball gets to the hoop that's more than enough to make a miss right so think about this anytime you're getting ready to shoot and you're moving off of the full speed think about letting that foot drag behind you as you go into it to get your balance get your deceleration and get your shot off quick it seems weird but I promise you start watching footage you'll see it all over the place alright so I've got two drills they're gonna help you master this drag footwork now it's very difficult especially if you're just getting started so don't get frustrated if you missed the first few shots that's okay that's part of the process so the first one is what we call a spin drag series basically all I'm going to do is I'm going to spin the ball out to myself off to the opposite side I'm going going to laterally push off my inside foot and then I'm going to drag that foot as I catch the ball right so it'll look something like this I'm going to push drag shot bring it back out I'm going to spin it the opposite direction push drag shot the whole time you want to think about dragging that foot loading into the jump shot you can work on this drill close to the hoop for form shooting you work on the mid-range or you can even work out to three as well all right the next drill is what we call a pullback drag which basically now I'm going to execute a two dribble pullback jumper where I'm going one dribble downhill second dribble back but on that second dribble I'm gonna drag my back leg as I'm getting into my pullback right so think about now I'm using this brake or e-brake as essentially the deceleration out of my pullback again I'm gonna go to the right two dribbles pull up then I'm gonna go to the left drag pull back again you're gonna want your ankle Mobility going sideways like this dragging into the jumper I promise you you're gonna get a lot more Shifty and a lot quicker with this deceleration all right don't forget if you want to shoot like a pro you gotta train like a pro so go ahead and hit the link in the description or the top pick comment down below you get free instant access to the pro class Pro shooting workout now what's great about this is this Pro shooting pack is packed with drills from some of the best Shooters on the planet like Damian Lillard Chris Paul CJ McCollum just to name a few and they're all going to help you get better at your game so click it right now get 100 Access and it's 100 free also if this video helped you out go ahead and hit the like button down below and then hit the Subscribe button because we put out a bunch of videos every week and they're all going to help you get better I can guarantee it again I'm coach Colin Castello with shop mechanics basketball thanks for watching and until next time thank you
