SUMMARY OF THE HOOK SHOT PRACTICE SCORECARDS

When you encounter a new drill, practice it once to get a feeling of the drill before incorporating it into the workout. After practicing each drill or set of drills, enter your time in the appropriate (unshaded) columns of the scorecards. Check your practice progress by comparing your best times (Individual Practice Time Chart), with the Recommended and Triple T Practice Times.

Try to master the correct techniques and mechanics in the early stages of the workout. In the later stages, increase the speed of executing the drills by aiming at the Recommended and Triple T Practice Times. Staying within these practice times will allow you to increase the speed of executing the drills while retaining the proper techniques needed to be successful with the hook shot.

You must realize that the Recommended and Triple T Practice Times are very difficult to attain the first time around. Even if you don't achieve these times after a couple of weeks, you will still notice considerable improvement in your hook shot accuracy and confidence.

Your main goal is to practice through all the recommended drills in your skill level regardless of your practice time. Your accuracy and speed of executing the drills will improve gradually as you progress with the workout. Aim to improve your time every day when you set out to practice. You have in your hand the most effective hook-shot workout in all of basketball. Use it to make this magnificent shot your trademark, and use it with confidence to dominate your opponent in the paint.
