The HockeyShot Professional Shooting Pad is a Must-Have if You Plan to Work on Your Shot from Home!
This product is a no-brainer. If you want to work on your shot off the ice, you need a good shooting pad. Otherwise you’ll wreck your stick, and the pucks won’t slide with the same feel as real ice.
HockeyShot’s Professional Shooting Pad is a great choice.
I’ve used quite a few “makeshift” shooting pads over the years. Some of these worked ok, some not as well. None has compared to the experience I’ve had with the Professional Shooting Pad. There are a few key features that make this a “must-have” item:
- 30″ by 60″ surface area, which is larger than most of the pads I’ve used in the past. This makes it big enough to give you a full range of motion on your wrist shots, slap shots and snap shots.
- Made of a slick and durable material, which allows your pucks to slide similarly to ice––so it works great for shooting or stickhandling practice.
- Durability allows you to take slap shots without damaging the pad; something I had to be careful about with some of my makeshift shooting pads!
- Bevelled edge makes it easy to pull pucks up from beside your mat.
- This shooting pad is lightweight, with a handle cutout, which makes it REALLY easy to transport (not the case with some of my previous shooting pads).
To sum it up, you need a shooting pad of some sort if you want to work on your shot from home. If you’re looking for one that mimics the feel of real ice, is big enough to take real shots with, will hold up to intense use, and is easily transportable, then this is the pad for you. It’ll save your stick, and help make you a better hockey player in the process!
Hey Jeremy,
I like your reviews.
However, on this demo, for the snap and wrist shots you are shooting off the wrong foot? It would make a better demo if you really stepped into the shots and used the proper footing, like you did for your slap shot.
