the cue stick and left eye (or right eye) must align with the shot-line. and these two lines need to converge/overlay each other. anyway, this is my opinion.

What am i doing here in my attached photo? and what am i doing in my videos? or should i say, not doing. I can see it. I know what i am doing: right and wrong. And i know you can see it as well. the pros have perfected their technique. I like this particular pro video as a great example...

You are absolutely correct. Like i said, i don't have to say it. Anyone can see it. obviously, i see it too.

"and that's why that bonehead shot, uh, misses." your intent is clear: you disagree. but your asserted support for your disagreement is not a logical basis for your disagreement. I am able to shoot what i see. you see me making the shot, straight in followed by the cue ball straight in...

i can't easily figure out what you mean more often than not: you must mean something with your emphasis using big bold letters in your reply. i never used big bold letters. i said that i am admittingly still doing somethings wrong even as i have improved doing more things right now. you can see...

High there good buddy. In the game of pool. Like Gorst said when he was asked how he aims: "I just see the shot." That's it. Plain and simple. When the balls are lying on the table, everyone who passes by can see. And they see exactly the same thing. The balls lying on the table. But the...

I'd say I've made at least 50% improvement in just a matter of a few months. You can get an idea of my shot-making ability back on Dec. 7, 2025 in this video: https://streamable.com/z2twnm You can compare it to this video from today, Mar. 4, 2026: https://streamable.com/6mvx9z The video from...

A subtle joke? Circumstance: one hour practice session. Anyway, I edited the video to show you only the shots I made where the cue ball followed the object ball, basically, cleanly into the pocket. As stated, I make the object ball at least 95% of the time overall. Often the cue ball still...

Yes. I call it my "sway" stroke. You should have seen it just a day or so ago. I was too embarrassed to post a video sooner. I know the basic reason for it. I use the iterative process. I incrementally approach the solution to such problems. Closer and closer. I am correcting it. And when I do...

I had hoped it would only be weeks but it turned out to be about two and a half months. But I have tightened up my technique considerably. I still have much work to do. I can see everything in this video that you can see but be assured, I will read everything you might care to offer. I can...

You've heard that the definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome. But if one is inclined, it at least shows an ability for consistency. So look at it on the bright side if this describes you: If you perfect shot execution, most likely you can...

Watch that Accu-Stats One-Pocket match between Cole and Luat. Cole uses a slip stroke often. Watch closely. You can't miss it.

My video camera shows me everything I do wrong. It's up to me to correct it. My voice recorder records all my thoughts and ideas about my game in real time. So as I don't forget anything important. I don't need a real live person to show and tell me these things. There are plenty of books and...

After what you said, I looked at the pic again. Yes. It does look slightly off that I might miss. That was a good catch on your part. So I grabbed another pic a few frames away from the video. This one looks most accurate. And you're right. An hour without missing is an excellent gauge. I...

It is said: One picture worth 1000 words. I'll expect I'll have a video in another month. I'm still working out the bugs. I edited swapping the pic by a couple of video frames.
