Your shot selection was very good to show some variances. A lot of good responses here, most of which I have tried. I hope some have helped. But if not, here's one that helped me. Your elbow side to side movement could be causing the problem. Others have mentioned it but I haven't seen a...

4. No elbow movement.

To continue your routine you may want to use side English with the stop shot, to stop the cue ball and have it spin in place. Folks who try this have a new respect for using English.

...and you still give solid advice.

My error...I meant the cue STICK will stop for an instant....I don't think the cue stick stops at all.

The cue stick will stop for an instant????

View the video shown on the op. Many pockets inside and out.

How can you respond to this post with mentioning the push pull theory as it relates to spyrogenetics?

I should have explained it with more detail. Most of the 4 inches will be taken up by just pulling the cue back further while keeping your grip in the same place. You could also become more compact with a little bend in the bridge elbow. What this did for me was just make the follow through a...

Let's say in a game you are in stroke. Balls are just falling in. Then the next shot is one you have difficulty with. You may go back to a more conscious level and think about different aspects of the shot that have caused you problems.

evergruven, you have requested thoughts and advice. I think it would be good if you did you own experiment and find your own results. Try this. Shoot a straight in 5 foot shot with the object ball right in the middle. Shoot it with a CONSISTENT but comfortable bridge length and comfortable cue...

Very good response. For me, getting back in stroke is pro-active by developing a strong reliance on maintaining the 'pre-shot routine' that stays in level 4.

Let's look at the 4 levels of performing tasks for a start. 1. Unconscious/incompetent...does not know what to do and can not do it. 2. Conscious/incompetent....knowns what to do but can not do it. 3. Conscious/competent....knows what to do and has to think about doing it. 4...

Herbie, this is something that has helped me and may be worth a simple fix. When you get down on your shot, it looks like when you are 'set', your cue tip is almost touching the cue ball. Get down exactly like you normally do but move everything about 5 inches forward, including your feet. Your...

But he stated more speed gives more squirt. More speed would give less swerve which would look like less squirt. I may be wrong on this.

A simple Google search will describe that is does happen, however it is above my pay grade to discuss various effects of flight or fight anxiety such as kaleidoscope vision. Many folks miss easy shots when the pressure is on. We can feel the effects of adrenaline in our stroke but I haven't seen...

Are you saying 'more speed makes more squirt'?

A very difficult situation to control, that is seldom discussed, is how vision distorts under pressure.
