NHL Hockey Shooting Coach Tim Turk – Slap Shot in Motion

In this hockey shooting tutorial, NHL Hockey Shooting Coach Tim Turk provides tips on how to **improve your hockey shot**, specifically focusing on the slap shot in motion. He emphasizes the importance of proper puck placement and preparation before taking the shot. To achieve maximum power, players should ensure that their power arm remains in a locked, loaded position throughout the entire motion. This lock should stay consistent, even when the player is hitting the ice or releasing the puck.

Turk also stresses maintaining a low posture during the shot and the importance of locking out the stride leg to generate power. Proper technique in these areas ensures that the player can deliver a more effective and powerful slap shot. These fundamental movements—consistent puck positioning, locked arm, and a stable lower body—are key to mastering the slap shot and enhancing overall shot performance.
