So as you get older your body changes and so does your game. I’ve been playing for 35 years. For example I took my glasses off when I played for years. My left eye was great and I was a right handed player who was left eye dominant. Then at some point during Covid my left eye left the chat lol i couldn’t read the numbers on the ball standing next to the table.
Now I’ve been noticing I have some pain in my left shoulder when I’m playing after about an hour. I noticed yesterday watching Neil’s play Svb he lets his left elbow break down where I was always taught to keep that arm straight. Talked to a friend who takes lessons from the Neil’s and he said yeah I changed to that a while back. It gets me over the ball better. Half way through a straight pool match yesterday I started feeling that pain so I changed my stroke. Felt more solid and yes I felt more over the ball
. I guess a few multiple hour practice sessions and it will be 2nd nature and that will be my new stroke.
What changes have you all old timers like me had to make ? lol what’s next
