The key to determining a travel is establishing which foot is the pivot foot.
"He proceeds to pivot on his right foot . . . He . . . jumps off of his front foot (left), lifting the pivot foot off the floor and shoots."
In your scenario, the right foot is the pivot and the player lifts it to shoot. Rule 4-43-3-a says, "The pivot foot may be lifted, but not returned to the floor, before the ball is relased on a pass or try for goal."
If your description is correct, no travel.
