>Record yourself shooting and try out different stuff to see what's comfortable but also going in. Then you can try to mimic the shot that felt best. There's an app called Home court that may help with this.
Yeah, I have used Homecourt before, I found a custom shot design program online that I've used to get my form now.
>Try using training aids that develop good fundamental shot mechanics. Something that keeps your shot arm elbow inline with the body, or something the prevents you from interfering with the ball using your guide hand.
I need some advice on a few items before I buy them: here, here, here, and here.
> Like most everyone else is telling you, don't copy anyone's shot form. Focus on using the same form/technique consistently regardless of how far from the hoop you are. That's probably the best advice I can give.
You are correct, that is some of the best advice I've heard.
