I dont know why sometimes i have a really good day making shots and sometimes i airball a lot. I also figured out that i have like 3 shooting styles and everytime i shoot i use one of them and i dont really know which one im using and my friends that that thats bad for free. so do u have any tips on how to improve my shooting and also have only one shooting style ?

Training. Train just the one style and make sure you follow it. If you change it, it's only because you decided to (whether it's a conscious or subconscious decision).

Shooting is very much about being consistent. Inconsistency will do you no favours at all.

Here's something that is easier said than done but you HAVE to do it: analyse your 3 styles.

With a pen/paper or computer, in column 1, list or describe the individual characteristics of one of the styles. In column 2, write down the effect that each of those characteristics have on your shooting technique and performance and in column 3, write your opinion of what is good and what is not good about elements of the style.

Repeat for each of the styles.

Take some quiet time to read through your analyses and feel free to add to them as issues occur to you.

After a few periods of re-reading them and some quiet contemplation, you really need a good coach to discuss your analyses with. (You can pick a good coach because s/he will focus on you with no use of the word "I"! - as in, "I had a problem like that and what I did was ...")

In the absence of a coach, a counsellor or a good listener may help so you can verbalise your ideas. If all else fails, you will have to do it by yourself (talk to yourself!)

You are searching for one style that you will have confidence in, that gathers the best bits from your 3 current styles and produce a style that you can concentrate on and practice until you get it right.

Simple! Then all it takes is a bit of fitness training and lots of dry fire and live fire and don't forget the use of visualisation to reinforce your technique.

Good luck.

Guys, learn to notice the 'the god of love' tagline on this idiot spammer's posts. Different usernames all the time, always the same signature. He's learning to be on-topic with his subjects but he's just hoping to come back in later and edit that signature into a link to some nonsense.

I recognised it as I finished the reply and thought, what the hell, I've just given a future world champion some good advice!!!

I'll be more observant in the future.
