hello all, thank you for all the feedback and i took all of it in consideration. I did an experiment with nine ball. I racked up 10 games. In those ten games I played 5 solely looking at the cue ball last and 5 looking at the object ball last. I can say that basic shot making there is little...

So what i am taking from this is looking at the OB will help you shoot towards the ball more, i can see why this would be beneficial when hitting the center axis because your driving the cut towards the spot that your aiming at but if hitting off center it would be flawed in my mind(i.e. left...

I think the same way "keep your eye on the ball" is what my father used to say(and still says at times) when we go golfing, or playing baseball. That is why i think its logical to look at the cue but I am pretty unresistant too, and i just want to know a logical reason why it is beneficial or is...

I have created an eye pattern that leaves me looking at the cue ball when I take my shot. The reason why i do this is because I like looking at my contact point when i shot the ball. I believe that If I am lined up properly to make the shot, that i will not get out of alignment if i don't look...

I want to know everything. What joints do what and benefits for them, what type of woods non woods and benefits of each. What the size of the tip does for a player. I heard smaller tips have the ability to put more english(with an accurate hit) on the cue ball, is there any truth to this. What...

point to an object with both eye open, wink with on eye then the other. the one that is in line with the object you are pointing at more is your dominant eye. there will be a considerable difference.

I appreciate the drills and i cant wait to see them... The only reason i wanted to know a two rail kicking system because i seem to always have to kick two rails after my opponent plays a good safety... and it seems like its 1 every two games and it costs me the game because i miss the ball...

Thank you grey ghost... i wasnt looking for that much information... I was looking for a place to look for the information you you didn't leave out anything... I will check those books out at my local library(hopefully they have them if not amazon here i come) And thank you again for the advice

what is in them exactly? Is it strategy or mostly shots to have in your arsenal. does it Touch on safety play at all.

Do you have any books you would like to recomend for and intermediat player. Which ones and what does it cover. Have illistrations, diagrams, or practice drills. Will you find this information after just five min on the internet. Thanks matt

I mean cue ball control after hitting the OB. like 3 rail position Play. or when the cue ball moves More than 9 ft after hitting ob

I have been practicing a lot with shot making, with and with out english. I also do some short cue ball control. When i mean short I mean after contact i maybe hit one to two rails and go a distance from 2 to 4 feet. I am slowly mastering this and I was wondering how to learn the longer lines...

I can make pretty much any shot with center cue ball and not worrying about my next leave. When I start to put any spin or follow or draw I tend to miss the shot. Not a lot but enough to make me frustrated. My question is the any specific drills to improve aiming with some sort of english to...

Last week I posted the "So i practice a lot..." thread and got some awesome feed back and with that feed back this week i played in league much better went 3 and 1 and one i ran the table and my opponent only had one shot... the break... I got my confidence back and i thank all that participated...

I think its going to be like baseball and switch hitting its just going to take repetitive movements to become comfortable before ever even approaching the ball. luckly i already play with my less dominate hand... don't ask me why but it do, so switching back and forth isn't that difficult but...
