Is this Stroke Crooked ... or is it Camera Parallax?

Dr. Dave explains and demonstrates why Samm Diep's stroke looked crooked in my previous Top 10 Draw Shot Secrets video. Aim and stroke direction can look off in video not just due to poor stroke mechanics ... camera lens and view-angle parallax can also play big roles.

Good Luck With Your Game!!!

NOTE: Samm's stroke looks more crooked than mine in the video for two reasons. The camera angle was slightly different (at a larger angle) with her shot. And as I pointed out in the video, her arm is shorter, which increases the up and down motion (and parallax effect) for a given stroke length.
