# What Enables a Great Shooting Percentage?

## All Great Shooters Have a Few Things in Common.

Every player will shoot the ball slightly different, whether it's the way they release the basketball, hold the basketball, or something else. Every player is going to have a slightly different shot, but there are a few things all great shooters have in common. First, they all shoot strait. Their mechanics are so spot-on that they do not miss the basket right or left. Secondly, they are shooting deep into the basket with the correct [shot depth](https://www.noahbasketball.com/what-is-the-correct-shot-depth). Lastly, all great shooters consistently shoot with a correct [shot arc of 45°](https://www.noahbasketball.com/what-is-the-correct-shot-arc).  Watch the video above to learn more.
