Build Your Practice Plan

When practicing, you can focus on improving your technique, or building skills. If you're working on technique, you'll worry less about the precision of the outcome and more about the feelings associated with a new movement. If you're working on skills, then you'll want to focus on the shot outcome and the process used to trigger your current technique. Most practices should have some of both. The better you get, the more you'll need quick patches on your technique and more work on your skills.
