I would suggest a step down (toward the basket) on all field goal attempts. This is something I learned to do at our officiating camps. We sometimes think we are doing all the right things until the video tape is analyzed and we can see ourselves (not stepping down). It becomes much easier to see the action at the basket and all around it when getting closer from the Trail position. My "old" habit was to start going the other way.
