    Playing one handed to improve your stroke

    how can it be a poke, if you lay the cue down on the rail, bend down like normal, and do everything the same? i dont advocate for the : one hand with tip in the air and let the cue fall and then poke thing, im talking about one handed + cue resting on the rail with you normal stance. do this...

    Playing one handed to improve your stroke

    not sure, but you might have read it in my post about my stroke -research i have been doing in the instructional section. i found out i was FAR a better potter playing one handed then two handed, narrowing the research area down, of things i had to analyse to find the solution. like someone...

    Can't get my stroke straight. AARf

    exactly :) if you see the post where i lost it, and my last post, it only took me 1 hour to read this thread again, and 2h/day of stroke training to get back in there. I agree this thread has many many good comments. sometimes it easy to explain something and hard to really understand it...

    Can't get my stroke straight. AARf

    hi all, thanks for the reactions. I actually also play pool eyes-closed from time to time. i think its the best confidence builder and really makes you focus on the stroke, fading all the rest out. i should do it more often !! well after spending some days working on the stroke again (after...

    switching from LD to HD, from BHE to FRE

    patrick; i have been reworking on my fundamentals for over a year now, doing only that. Straight stroke, center ball hit. I'm confident that it wasn't the stroker behind it, but it was the shaft. xianmacx: That was exactly what my first impression was. OVERKILL!!! I couldnt controle it either...

    switching from LD to HD, from BHE to FRE

    I can't explain it either, and trust me, i have posted the same arguments for years, but im getting more spin :confused:. Is it because of the way the tip deflects from the sphere when the sphere is hit of center that is different from one shaft to another? Maybe the timelaps in between the...

    World Championships Pool Juniors

    there is no real lifescoring, but if you go to the lifestream and open the chatbox, morning is doing a greath job there giving all the info you will need.
