That’s not what he’s saying- a lot of us in all sports baseball, hockey lax etc we get tunnel visioned on a stationary target and we try to place it instead of shoot it. Our bodies are pretty cool in the sense if we think it we usually can do it. If I want it top left and I fire a piss missile without thinking, there’s a solid chance I’ll hit it. But if we get caught up in our heads we tend to grip our sticks to tight and that causes some technical issues which causes speed and accuracy to drop.
@@TopShelfHockeyAcademyPtbothis is the most true comment I’ve ever seen. I’m still in my u15 year and when I shoot all my pucks just trying to aim for a corner seems impossible it either goes over the net or just barely misses the top corner but when I’m in a game I feel much more relaxed and usually don’t miss and that’s why I have 56 points in 32 games
This is helpful in games, not when you are practicing. Gametime is for your subconscious to execute on the muscle memory. PRACTICE to DEVELOP your muscle memory. Jules reps these shots like a freak, so this works for him in games bc his muscle memory has been tuned
I'm sorry but idk if I misread it but to me it seems like your saying this isn't what you should do during practice it's what you should do during games because it's muscle memory but if you don't do it in practice where does the muscle memory come from? (I'm sorry if I misread this I'm just questioning)
You still have to think about where your shot placement will be. Accuracy is where the object landed vs where you intended it to go. Think “top left” before a shot vs “I gotta aim here to get this ball perfectly accurate”…. When I use shooting targets, I tell my players to think about shooting it in the corner vs aiming for the target. It truly is all mental. You got this!
Bro, There's this thing called gravity. When you take a step into the shot your shoulders should drop height. Even a couple inches. Imagine the weight of your torso, dropping two inches. And that energy goes into the shot. Combined with shoulder rotation. Dropping a hundred pounds of weight two inches gives you over 30 foot pounds more energy in the shot. Turn a wrench medium hard on a vehicle and that's how much energy you are losing. You're a good neutral direction change kinda player, but your shooting sucks. When I was seventeen I could rail shots into the bottom right corner from the restraining line, and I shot with gravity. You don't know me because I was in the wrong part of the USA. My coach used to throw a fit and throw his hat on the ground when we did loosely goosey sidearm shots..and it forced overhand shots and passing. And it teaches you to work with gravity. And then you learn sidearm later.
