I am right handed shooter and right eye dominant.
I lined up for years in the old fashioned mosconi way...(Jimmy Reid refined it for me.....AFTER he busted me once. And I was getting 8-5 on the money on each game in 8 ball. He beat me like a drum.)
When I began the CTE journey, I quit the mosconi stuff and I began lining up on an offset like Shuffett teaches and then shifted (pivoted or whatever they call it) into the shot line.
Staying down was never an issue...I forced that into my playing when Reid analyzed it 30 years ago.
But I see now where if if one of those feet gets away from where it's supposed to be, things get weird. Again, thanks for bringing it up.
Mizerak told me, if you start missing, to FIRST go to slowing down the backstroke.
SECOND, tighten up the grip hand. (Strickland and Wiley and Billy Johnson all advocated this remedy. On the other hand, Tony Ellin said it was insane.
I asked Lassiter about it once, but those old bandits wouldn't reveal a thing...in fact they'd lie, just to keep you "in your place".)
Mizerak continued.."If you keep missing, then there is nothing left but alignment...IF you know how to aim."
My game is back in gear again. Not big league quality, but good enough to rob anybody I can get in a trap. I don't make bad bets...it's my way or no way. That's all that matters to me.
Keep on truckin' :thumbup:
