Would you like to become the best shooter
on your team?
Are you looking for a more
effective way to coach Shooting?

You're not alone!  Shooting is a lost art! Shooting percentages have been declining for over 20 years! Players at all levels miss free throws and open jumpers to lose games! Major NBA stars are embarrassed at the Free Throw Line! You see top college teams shooting under 50% Free Throws. Memphis shoots around 59% for the year and then lost the National Championship because they couldn't make more than 1 in 5 free throws right at the end of the game.  The USA team could only manage only bronze medals in the last Olympics and at the 2006 World Championships.  International players can shoot better from outside and from the Line. Something's not working!

This year, at the Tournament of the Americas, our specially chosen team won by big margins and shot "lights out!"  They were amazing in all aspects of the game. Even LeBron, a career 33% 3-pt shooter, lead the team by shooting 62.2% from beyond the arc.  It was very impressive, though we don't know if the excellent shooting was based on improved technique or just because they were "high," out to prove to the world that we're still the dominant force in basketball.  We'll find out in the run-up to the Olympics this year when our team plays the best players from the world's other teams.

  • Players don't know what to practice
  • Coaches often don't know how to coach shooting 
  • Coaching just the "Fundamentals" (how to stand, how to hold the ball, where the
    elbow should point, etc.) isn't enough!

New!  May '08 article by an AP sports writer, Dave Campbell

Article in the Oct. 23, 2003 San Francisco Chronicle about Tom's background and his "Calling" to teach shooting to the world! Scott, a syndicated columnist, is one of the top sports writers in the country.
"Jedi of the jumper could teach Lebron"



GREAT FOR A YOUNG PLAYER OR COACH ANYTIME!

Get the Swish videos for your kids (or your coach friends).  
It will become something they'll want to watch over and over.

Finally they will have a Method that is both simple and practical
(they will see they can do it).  Anyone can learn the simple
stuff these videos talk about and demonstrate.  Now when
they practice, unlike their buddies who don't seem to get much
better, they'll improve quite quickly.  Soon their friends will be
asking them what they did to shoot so well, and your kids
can be generous and tell them about the Swish videos
.
