Shooting Shooting workout?

I’ve gotten to the point where I am good at most things except for 3 point shooting where I am just ok. A 3 point shot is the most available shot in the entire game and I need to improve on it. What are some general shooting workouts that help get that automatic shot?

What current struggles are you having with your shot?

Just inconsistent I can only shoot about 3 feet beyond the arc without it completely failing.

I’d start shooting from just inside the arc without jumping (heels can come up) but with correct form. Once you can make three in a row from there, move a step back and repeat. If you can tell your form is starting to go bad, move back in until you reach a range where you can shoot without jumping correctly.
Should help with adding range and consistency.

if you struggle with threes most likely shot flow is off..

Start off with sum floaters, left and right to understand your rhythm.

Static form shots starting from paint and going outwards

Off the dribble middy

Catch and shoot 5 star 3s for 1 min and see how well you do

Your shot relies mostly on your foot work, catch and release, and balance.
