what is the key to shooting long range shots, practise or anything special like types of weights? im 16 and around 6 foot 1 yet i still have trouble shooting long range shots of up to 18 or 19 feet, i can get around 1 out of 5 or 6 in but it just feels "too far" sometimes, and yes i do use my legs as much as possible, any help??? thanks

Yeah, same here... Am guessing since I also use leg power to shoot, stronger legs = longer range

But what do I know! Am waiting for an answer too

I cant really help you but im pretty good in long range shot. Im using a mix of leg power and i cockback my arm back to my ear when i shoot. Kind of like Vince Carter does
