In today's video, I break down 3 Simple Tips to show you How To Fix Your "Chicken Wing"! A "chicken wing" is the most common problem when it comes to shooting a basketball. This is something that affects a ton of players all over the world. I'm pumped to share with you some tips that can help you solve the reason why you have a "chicken wing". Shooting is the most important aspect of a player's success in basketball today. Becoming a basketball player that can shoot out of any situation whether it's catch and shoot or shooting off the dribble is incredibly valuable. Make sure you pay close attention throughout the video so you can improve your jump shot, and skyrocket your shooting percentage! These simple basketball shooting techniques are super easy to implement for players at every level. By implementing these tips into your game you can almost immediately skyrocket your shooting percentage!
My first talking point I dive in and explain to you the importance of "your feet"! This is a hugely underrated aspect when it comes to shooting and if your feet are not in the correct position it can definitely be a leading cause as to why a player might be having issues with their elbow flaring out. We often find that the best shooters in the NBA all do a fantastic job having their feet tilted. This allows them to be able to shoot with ultimate fluidity and consistency! If we look at the best shooters in the NBA think of guys like James Harden, Steph Curry, and Klay Thompson they do a phenomenal job of turning their feet thus this allows their elbow to stay in when shooting. When it comes to shooting with precise accuracy basketball is just like any other hand-eye coordination sport, make sure you are locking in on your target before you shoot!
My second tip on How To Fix Your "Chicken Wing" is to experiment using different hand positions! Often times the reason why people have a chicken wing is that they try shoving their hand behind the ball the added tension causes their elbow to flare out. If we look at a shooter like Damian Lillard or Trae Young both shooter keep their hand on top of the ball this does two things it lets them keep perfect alignment, and it allows them to release the tension caused by shoving their hand behind the ball. There are a few different hand positions that can help, so make sure you experiment with them and see what is comfortable for you.
My third tip on How To Fix Your "Chicken Wing" is to fix your shot line. This is something we see with a lot of players that have a problem with their elbow flaring out when they shoot. By moving your shot line over it allows for much better alignment. If we look at the best shooters in the world think of a guy like Stephen Curry he has perfect alignment when shooting. I basically always travels up the exact same line every time. Straightening your shot line out can certainly help you eliminate your chicken wing problem.
As always make sure you are paying close attention to these basketball shooting form tips so when the time comes you can really expand your game to the next level! Watch the video all the way through and implement these 3 tips on How To Fix Your "Chicken Wing" tips into your and basketball workouts today!

Wow as a left handed shooter with a lot of lift on my shot I have a chicken wing. Literally turned my feet to the right a little and my arm is straight. Never would have figured that out. Thanks a bunch
That's awesome my man! I'm telling you one minor tweak can really revolutionize a jumper, pumped I was able to help! :)
Same here, I knocked them shots down like crazy today
Ive been having a chicken wing for years and I didn’t know it you are a life saver
Does it work tho
@@hiipeople5920 yee

Yo my guy, you are a legend. I had this issue for 7 years and I’ve only noticed this while recording myself in a camera. But just these little changes you’ve shown me for correct form, I could see a huge difference even without the ball in my hand. Thank you so much, I’m so glad I you made this video.
You are actually 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🏀🏀😂
You the GOAT for tuning in! 🔥
We like fortnite
Fake Trae Young-_-
Thanks coach for helping us to improve
Thanks alot...I really enjoyed watching all the drills and tactnics..Im pretty sure i will improve them...
Coach have been following you for over 6 years!! How would you recommend getting that perfect hand positioning on the ball for shooting off an in game catch or after a dribble?
thanks man ! im trying to adjust and improve everyday
One of the best cues I’ve found to fix this is having the player focus on moving the ball out rather than focus on keeping their elbow in.
It worked for me personally so whenever I have a guy who struggles with it that’s how I try and help them. Hi
same
wiat explain rhat

Hi

Amazing way to help us hoopers thanks so much
Glad I could help! Make sure to stay tuned in for more fire content we have coming soon! :🔥
Thank you so much bro❤
Fixed it in seconds! Thanks coach!
Hey coach castella, my shot kept on missing left and right before a week ago, and i studied my film and figured out that my feet were squared to the basket and i had a chicken wing which made my arm twist towards the left side making the ball miss left. I identified my problem a week ago thinking that i had to keep my arm straight which let me put a slant in the way my feet are pointing. Then I saw this video and it confirmed why I had a chiken wing which made me miss left and how to fix it. Thx so much! Your videos are very helpful and I appreciate it. Keep it up!!
You're a life saver. Thank you
Thanks man, ur a lifesaver
Thanks so much this helped me soo much i finally have no chicken win just needed to adjust my hand positioning
This doesn’t work i have tried everything I recorded my shot slo mo snd it elbow come out a little bit but i still knock down shots and i am confertible
My man number one rule in shooting if it ain't broke don't fix it. If it works for you and you don't have any issues getting your shot off in real game settings then keep doing your thang! :)🔥
ShotMechanics thanks coach im going to try the straight line because when I record i went left to middle so im going to try to keep my shot like to the middle (also can u plz post a vid of Tryout and nervousness in games plz!)love the vids btw
If It works then great but the chicken wing doesn’t work for everyone and this video is for Those people
ShotMechanics is one of the best
Mooster Wilson yesir
Very helpful.
Thank you so much
💥👑 you are the best
Damn I really went through all 4 years of high school with my coaches just telling me to tuck my elbow even though it strained my shoulder and elbow when the problem the whole time was how I square my feet to the basket... Thanks coach rly wished I could’ve had someone give me advice like this a few years back lol
Honestly HS coaches lie so much
Thanks coach..
Thank you so much I play for u16 and i didn't know what's wrong with my shooting form it just felt weird now it all lines up
My son says you’re a life saver lol always in the park practicing. Thanks!
Holy cow thank you I did every single thing you said and I started making my shot 9/10 previously to 3/10
Great tips bro
Ngl bro, thank you so much. I needed this one😭😭😭
Are there any athletic restrictions you see contributing to this (e.g. tight shoulders or weak rotator cuff)? Any recommended exercises to fix that?
UR BEST COACH
Coach Collin can you do Jordan Poole shooting form
Great info. Alot of coaches want u to shoot one way
i really needed this
Exactly
this is insane.. a little twist of feets and my elbow is traight, tysm
Can u plz do a updated d'angelo russel shooting form and his handles
Coach my release is always inconsistent as it slips off fingers I don’t want and I always leave space between my palm too!
How do I get a more consistent release? i feel like i can never get the ball right off my index/middle fingers
Thank coach
Best basketball shoes
I want to play well after i watch this video.
Could u make a tips and tricks to make your shots more consistent
Can i try this technique on corner three's?
I used to have your exact from, I got an injury then started playing again and I had this issue. Fast forward another injury now I still shoot like this and kind of slingshot the ball. I hate the way it feels even if It goes in
Do you have a video on people releasing from the head and some from the shoulder....is one better?
Wassup coach
my respect for this man📈📈📈
Can we get some defensive tips. Post defence and perimeter
hey coach can I send a video through ig and can help me tweak my shot and see what I should try??
U should do a video about how to work on your handles
Dude can u make some tips for catch ball perfectly?? I mean when you get pass from your teammate (especially pass to low post) then you need to fight tightly in low post. I hope you know what I mean, hee. Thanks a lot.
I shoot with both hands what can u do to help me shoot right hand dominant
What should I do if I’m left handed? It’s a little weird for my to shoot but like I always tend to either put my shoulder in my jaw trying to add power, my flick is off and shooting arm is all floppy. Any tips?
You are the reason Im scoring like steph
Question, how do I stop my follow through from coming across my face? I don’t have a chicken wing set point, but my follow through just slides across my face.
Great question shoot me a DM on IG and I'll take a look! :)
ShotMechanics can I send one 🥺
Hey can you tell me what he told u bc I don’t have ig
@@ShotMechanics please help
I’m really comfortable with my elbow poking out a little bit and I make my shots a lot, but I don’t want my form to look ugly. Does practicing with that form really make you used to it, because I don’t wanna mess up my jump shot and start missing a ton.
Bro I can relate to i shoot with my elbow and my friend who plays aau basketball says that my elbow makes my jump shot look jgly
don’t change it bro i changed mine and now i ain’t shit on the court
Thank you bro even 1 year later your video still saving jumpshots😂
Is it better to have a shot path on the right side of your face or centered?
You should also do a lot of 1 hand form shooting
Sometimes my shot is so wet nothing but net then sometimes my shot is either a air ball or a in and out and I feel like I change my shooting form a lot I really feel like I’m one fix away from being a really good consistent shooter I just need to see what I’m doing that’s wrong and I would be a knock down shooter
I observe that when my set point is on top of my head or middle line of my face having a chicken wing is helping release tension but if i tuck the elbow in, the hand or set point goes to the side of my head
Jay Morningstar same
Hi, can you make a video about top 10 point forward moves or way to go or the best position? If you can i appreciate it, Thank You. But if you cant no problem because i just ask you. Thank You Hope You Seen my comment
Hey shot machines can you help me with my elbow I have the chicken wing and I need help changing my shot
Do kyrie shooting blueprint when he's on the nets plz
Thx
I never had a chicken wing however using it actually helps me which is weird similar to how dev shoots
Your the best
My range is short if I don't use chicken wing. Do I need to fix my path or what? I do bodyweight fitness to strengthen my arm but same result.
U fixed my jumper
Hey so I my shooting form is good, unfortunately I can’t seem to figure out how to get hand placement while shooting quick, normally when I get a shot it takes like 5-10 seconds for me to move my hands to proper hand placement on the ball. Can you explain how I can get this hand placement quicker off a catch as well as creating my own shot.
Michael Perdomo practice find what feels good then spin the ball stop it n try to get to the spot where it is good for you
Nice video coach collin castellaw
🔥🏀
Thank you bro one year later this is saving jumpers 😂 ( like for every time he said “chicken wing” )
My problem is that my muscles are used to that shot and only gets in when I shoot like that but a clean form just makes me air all can u help
I developed tendinitis in my right arm and I shoot righty but now I can’t make a shot to save my life. I used to shoot consistent before, what can I do to fix it
What if im left eye dominant and im right hand, is it ok to do the chicken wing?
Yeah im left hand dominant as well in wondering
Gonna drop 30 in my next basketball tournament
when you shoot how can you get your guide hand in the same position, when i shoot my left is alwais near the right and i end up using both hands to shoot
Relax your guide on the ball
Do cam reddish shooting secret
I know you might not respond to this but my elbow is still not straight it’s gotten worse instead of bricking I’m air balling now pls help
In my case it was the feet, I also began to stick my elbow to the side of my body every single shot at practice until I could do it unconsciusly
What it do baby
Weird thing is ive had a chicken wing since ive started basketball and i learned how to shoot with it and shoot 60 percent from 3 but i think i need to learn how to shoot correctly
My elbow feels weird trying to move straight up on the right at the rim for 1 good rotation and 2 accuracy but I just can’t my elbow gets a weird feeling
Been having this but I shoot very good
coach how to restore the feel of the shot after a long absence ?
Yea I struggled with that a lot
@@qianwei1620 so you get your feel shot back ?
Ruby mulia still trying to get my shot back
@@qianwei1620 ok thank you for opinion
I have a chicken wing but I make buckets all day like Reggie Miller. Ball is too heavy to keep elbow straight. I get more arch and control slightly to the right.
Thank you for all your addvise in your videos I am 11 year's old and these have helped so much
Keep grinding lil g I recommend his passing tutorials since if u have good passing vission u get way more playing time
Same here
Check out Walt Frazier, NBA ALL STAR...., with the Knicks in the early 70's. PURE Chicken Wing...it never hurt Clyde. I guess it just depends...
I have a problem with having too high of a shooting arc but when I try to shoot in a lower arc, it always hits the front or back of the rim. How do I fix this?
BigNutBuster just keep on practicing with that high arc don’t change your arc if it’s high. The higher the better
Make sure your elbow is above your eyebrow but have your hand dipping inside the basket like you’re reaching in a cookie jar. I
I feel very uncomfortable "fixing" my chicken wing. It just feels awkward lining up my elbow like that because I've never shot like that.
Make sure you check out the tips in today's video. Sometimes one minor tweak can actually help your elbow fall in line.
Try turning your feet instead of moving your arms
When I shoot I keep my elbow in but as I’m shooting it comes out after my set point . Anyone know how to fix that ???
Correct me if I'm wrong but does op have a little chicken wing?
i have a chicken wing and i try to bring the ball straight up from my body but it doesn't work and I tried to do the other things as well.
I have flat feets what can I do to fix that
How do I remember how I set my feet because I am forgetting how much to turn my feet
haven't this been covered in old previous videos?
Not really
It would help if we could visually see the correct execution more often. Most of the video we’re visually seeing the wrong (chicken wing) way.
Ok
