The original SWISH DVD video is 56 minutes in length, has been highly acclaimed and we're sure that you'll love this unique basketball shooting form video. The SWISH Basketball Shooting Form reveals in a very simple fashion how accurate and consistent basketball shooting occurs and how it can be learned. It discusses the Four Keys of extraordinary basketball shooting and talks about how a shot from bigger muscles is more successful and predictable than a shot from smaller muscles. The key is to develop repeatability! SWISH suggests ways to stand, hold, and align the ball, and to perform the Release and Follow Through that lead to more effective shooting. Parents and coaches report kids working out on their own for the first time, practicing shooting and getting better. SWISH gives a check list for free throws and discusses the mental aspects of confidence and self image and how they will develop when one knows how to shoot. The Fundamentals and some creative shooting exercises are given in the Appendix.

The original Swish is about the basic principles of the Swish Method and what it takes to achieve great, pure shooting. It's a simple-yet-profound introduction to a powerful way to shoot a basketball. Kids, parents and coaches can watch it and come to understand the principles they need to practice and master to improve shooting skill.

Pistol Pete's Basketball Shooting Drills from the Homework Basketball training series is a one-of-a-kind in-depth instructional DVD that is mastered to increase the shooting ability of any and every basketball player. If anyone has the ability to teach shooting drills, it's Pistol Pete Maravich. During Pete's career at LSU, he racked up 3,667 points and an incredible 44.2 points per game average. Pete accomplished this despite the fact that according to NCAA rules, he could not start as a freshman. He accomplished this despite the fact that during his college years, there was no such thing as a "3 point shot". During his 10-year career in the NBA, he amassed nearly 16,000 points and a 24.2 points per game average. Look at the record books for yourself; there are few in basketball history that come close to the achievements of Pistol Pete Maravich.
