The dip is the one thing I’ve been trying to tell my son. I messed up teaching him the third one wrongly..

I played in the mid 70's and learned how to shoot by watching Adrian Dantley, who was one of the better shooter in college and the NBA. He did the things your talking about now . He loaded from the thigh, had feet offset, and didn;t have a palm gap. I shot 53 % from the field shooting between 16-19 ft from the basket as a small forward

[HunterFinn-svff]

My coach benched me for not having my feet squared

[renostubbs]

Over the years there has been countless players who's shot are directly affected by coaches...these coaches mean well by the style doesn't fit the players comfortability

There is NO SINGLE TECHNIQUE, there are some techniques that are better than others, but there is NO SINGLE RIGHT WAY.
If you are doing anything else close to right using any decent technique and you are getting consistent reps and tons of those reps, you will be a good shooter.
Focus on an 11 O'Clock Release and being in Balance and you will be a good shooter. Dip or No Dip, High Release, Forward Releaed, Low Release. All of that is stuff to nitpick. It might all be worth trying while you are learning.
But pick something that FEELS NATURAL to you and your hands, have a good release and let it fly. Tons of shots that are NOT PERFECT will go in. Tons of shots that SEEM PERFECT will miss.
Don't overthink it. It is a GAME and most of you have NO SHOT at being PROS no matter how much you over-correct yourself. Save some time for the REST of your GAME.
Develop your Body. Develop your Mind.
Non-Shooters get SCHOLARSHIPS TOO (just not at Shooting Guard)

I remember in the 6th grade, I shot with a dip. I had no clue I shot with a dip till a few years later when I started to research how to fix my jump shot but I do remember, it was much easier/effort less with it.

In 7th grade PE class, my coach told me stop doing that. The lower the ball is, the easier it is for a defender to knock the ball away when you shoot.

SO! From 7th grade till in the early 20s, I shot with no dip and always wonder why my shot was off. I didn't really see what was going on until I saw some video footage of myself.

Special shoutout to two people. Colin, for helping me fix it and for the not named 7th grade coach who messed up my jump shot many years
