Shooting Tip 4: Snap-shot

This is an effective quick-release shot. It can be used in the high slot area. When the puck comes from the corner, if you can use the snap-shot to get a quick shot to the far side of the net (since the goalie will be hugging the opposite post), then you'll have a very good chance of scoring.

The technique is just a quick reverse of the wrists. There is no wind-up at all. Follow through in the direction of the target.

Remember ... Practice Makes Perfect!
