New Shooting Drill - Improve Decision-Making Off The Catch
Here is a great drill that improves decision-making to shoot or drive off of the catch.
In the video below, Coach Jim Huber demonstrates the Contested “Shot Read” Drill.
You may have already seen this and other variations at our Shooting Camps and Elite Guard Camps.
Be careful not to over-coach and correct on every repetition.
At the beginning of my coaching career, I corrected too often. This creates indecisive players who freeze when they catch the ball.
I have found that players are much more aggressive and play better if you let them self-learn through repetition. Some figure it out right away. Some take longer.
I engrain the “attack” mentality first. After I’ve done this, I worry about teaching counters to what the defense does. This was influenced by Don Kelbick’s Attack and Counter Skill Development System.
I believe that sometimes the most effective coaching is not coaching too much.
