how to make a tennisball shooter?

Part of the answer depends on what kind of tennisball shooter you want.\n\n1)  I have seen tennisball shooters that are spring or piston powered - they are generally used to shoot a tennisball for a dog to fetch.  These systems are safer since they use a lower speed.\n\n2)  For more speed, such as to shoot a tennisball across a tennis court, a common method is to use rotating wheels.  As seen from above, position one treaded wheel so that it rotates clockwise on a vertical axis.  Position another treaded wheel so that it rotates counter-clockwise on another vertical axis.  The wheel edges should be spaced just less than a tennisball's width away from each other.\nDesign a safe delivery system to channel the ball between the rotating wheels, and it will shoot out.  The faster the wheels are spinning, the faster the ball shoots out. (This method can also be done with only one wheel, using a solid launch ramp in place of the second wheel.)

Use a tennis ball and bounce it.  treat it as it were a basketball if this is too hard try using one of the little mini balls.  This will make a real size basketball be much easier to control.

well...im not going to tell you how to make gunpowder, but a pretty fun home made 'bomb' can be made out of a tennis ball, some match sticks and lots of duck tape. It takes ages but;\n\nchop the tips off matches (wear gloves)\ncut a small slit in a tennis ball and stuff the matchheads in, as many as you can. Wrap the whole thing in duck tape so its really airtight.\n\nNow, to set the thing off, just throw it really hard at a wall or something (for gods sake dont throw it at someone) The matchheads will ignite and the pressure build up will cause the tennis ball to rupture giving a nice satisfying bang. \n\ngood thing about this is you cant commit a terrorist outrage with it, and its not powerful enough to really harm anybody - but still, be careful when you use it, dont dick around because if it goes off in your hand it could do some damage - the noise is really loud too - you dont want to go deaf. Bottom line is - the thing might take up to a minute to actually blow up (usually takes a few seconds but still), dont throw it at something then wander over and pick it up again!!\n\nhave fun and dont kill anybody\nhope this helps

put out your right hand onto the table finger tips touching the tables but palm up, rest the stick between your thumb and fore finger about 30cm from the tip. use your other hand to push the stick forward, whilst aiming at the ball. \n*put a bit of talc where the stick rests on your hand- it makes it easier*

Follow these tips in fast-motion:\n\n1- Spread your feet at same distance as your shoulders.\n\n2- When you take aim, use your shooting hand to hold the ball from underneath and the other hand to balance the ball from the side.\n\n3- Keep both elbows inside your shoulders' frame throughtout the whole motion.\n\n4- If you dont have enough strength to arc a jumpshot higher than the backborad, shoot the ball from your chest instead of from over your head and/or use your jump to help you push the ball. \n\n5- And the most important tip, because it is what makes the arc: use your shooting wrist to make the ball roll off your fingers as you shoot (it is a concept widely known as the finger-roll).\n\n6- Follow your shot with your shooting arm for better accuracy.\n\nWith the these tips, and practicing them at least a 100 times a day, you could be the next Larry Bird, or the next Reggie Miller. Who knows. Those guys hardly missed.

well most of the nab's best shooters spend hours shooting so spend around like 2 hours just shooting. Throw the ball off the backboard and try rebounding it. also practice layups like around for 30 min layups are so easy but people tend to missem\nTRY this link it has drills and many great ways to practice and has videos to show you how to do them\nhttp://www.coachesclipboard.net/VideoClips.html\n\nalso try this link it has everything from teaching you how to jump higher to shooting\nhttp://insidehoops.com/gym/

- Bend your wrist back as far as possible and then snap it as fast as you can at the top of your shot.\n\n- Keep your elbows tucked.\n\n- Bend your knees.\n\n- Release the ball with your fingertips.\n\n- Most importantly you have to feel comfortable doing it or it just won't fall in.

In Yahoo Pool, here is how you shoot:\nWhen shooting the cue ball, use the left mouse button to move the cue stick \n     around the cue ball. When you have positioned the cue stick where you want,\n     click and hold the right mouse button. Pull back on the mouse until you have\n      the desired power (displayed on the right side of the table). Let go of the right \n     mouse button to take your shot. To move the cue ball when you have ball in hand,\n     simply left-click the cue ball and drag it to the desired spot and drop it. \n     For more precise aiming you may use the arrow keys to line up your shot as well. \nHope this helps, and good luck!

just like it sounds baby!  have you ever put "english" on a tennis ball or a pool ball?  You hit is in a certain area to make it spin. \nPool - the ball gets hit near the bottom to make it spin back toward you.  The side spin serve in VB makes the ball curve thru the air so it looks like one person should receive it and then it either lands in between players or goes to an entirely different player.  you need to practice it!  hit it on the right side (if you are right handed) and stand toward the right of the court. Do the opposite if you are left handed.

Assuming your talking about Basketball...\nLay on your back and "shoot" the basketball up in the air with little or no bend of your arm. Try to make the shot as straight as possible and have the ball land back in your hands without moving. I did this when I was playing B-ball back in High School. Did the trick with strengthening my wrist as well as control.

STEP 1: Stand directly over the ball. \n\nSTEP 2: Place your left heel on the front of the ball, and keep your foot on the ground.\n\n STEP 3: Position the top of your right foot on the back of the ball so that just your toes are touching the ground. \n\nSTEP 4: Roll the ball 2 to 3 inches up your left heel with your right foot. \n\nSTEP 5: Lean forward so all your weight is on your left foot. \n\nSTEP 6: Flick your left heel up quickly with force as you lean forward. Your momentum and the heel flick sends the ball over the back of your head so that it lands in front of you, hence the "rainbow kick." \n\nSTEP 7: Take a step forward to regain control of the ball. \nI HOPE IT WORKS! GOOD LUCKKK

... r u serious you can buy a book for that demonstration thing u know, or send your 14 young'n to a basketball club training camps for that\n\n... here's my own demo "do the exercise follow through take an Indian squat sittin', then throw the ball upward (straight-up) for how many times as you wanted maybe 10x, 20x, 30x, "\n\n ..if you're a right handed person "your right hand who throw the ball would be in L-shaped (before throwin' the ball), and straight-up hand (after you release the ball) ..your left hand fingers support only don't move it\n\n..remember only fingers will touch the ball for follow through"

like they said earlier, bend your knees a heck of a lot. but, you will need to hit the ball in front of your body because if you hit it close, you are going to mis-hit it or flail it long. try setting up two wooden poles along the sides of the net and then set a string about 2-3 feet above the net connected to the poles. get a ball machine or have somebody feed you a lot of balls and just practice hitting it through that "window" that it creates and adjust as necessary. if you are hitting the ball over the string every time, aim lower and don't go low to high on your swing as much. if you are hitting the ball in the net, check the angle of your racket face when you hit and bend your knees more to get below the ball. if you are hitting them long, come over the ball a bit more to get more topspin or just don't hit the ball so hard. all it takes is a hitting of a lot of tennis balls and after you finally find your comfort zone in hitting low, hard balls over the net, you will be one heck of a good tennis player.\n\np.s. hitting the ball low and hard over the net is not advised. it is a very high-risk shot. however it might have a great feel to it and you will have awesome winners, unless you are really good at it, it will probably not win you many matches with tough players that can get it back. but it is always fun to hit and is a great approach shot for coming in and taking volleys.
