See the first line of post #83. John. :)

I beg to differ. Quote: But here's what I did mean. You preset your hand and wrist in a precocked tuck or roll position and keep it that way. End Quote See post #83 John

Nice shooting Hogie. Just think in a year or so you'll be hitting them like JS. [emoji3] John Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As with your shoulder the tip of your elbow should be in line with the shot line. The grip of the cue should allow for the lower part of the arm to close naturally. When done properly there will be absolutely no tension in the forearm. Your just closing your arm and pushing the cue forward...

There's a couple of good tips. Pre-cocking the wrist depending on whether your going to T or R. The finish of the wrist will end up being neutral at the end of the stroke. Little Mike does the SkaB backwards. He starts at CCB to COB and then pivots to 1/4 ball. Same thing............only...

Yes. In fact, after this experiment I started using Little Mike's shooting style and instead of using parallel placement of the cue stick to apply spin I reverted back to a Tuck or Roll on shots. The T&R is only applied on the delivery stroke from CCB. Don't get me wrong, when I use a parallel...

In Bold above. Yes. I have never thought of this. It took quite a few shots to get it to work. The hard part of this was not trying to aim to hit 1/4 ball and depend on Roll to send the cue ball to the 1/4 OB point. I can't imagine why I would ever use this method. But I'm sure this exercise...

Training Session #3 (part 2 of 3) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb-NRjATtjI Little Mike makes some very good points concerning PSR in this part. I thought he was using BHE to apply spin. Not so. Watch his wrist, he is using Tuck and Roll to apply spin. John :)

Training session #3 (1 of 3 parts) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLIedjEDzxo Enjoy :) John

Consider the above DONE. Good information, nothing like knowing the limitations. I'll work on the above asap. Thanks for the tip. John :)

Thanks for the links Dave. I went a step further and watched all of the pool related videos. Even got to see Jimmy Moore Jr. play. Because I have been practicing CTE for the last month or so I was able to catch onto this approach pretty easy. I do the pivots in the air. His instruction was to...

Not an Instructor. Period. That air stroking is not for show. The elbow hinges in one direction only. The grip (and trigger finger) is being adjusted to allow for the elbow to close naturally in a straight line on the shot line. So, when you see them doing the air strokes they are adjusting...

A lot of good reading in this thread. Thanks :) John

Watch Alex. It is not he amount of how far you bring the cue back. Its how far you deliver the cue forward that gets the job done. The amount of practice strokes is what I like to call "measuring the shot" for speed and force going forward. Your practice strokes will happen automatically, Like...

Skip. It's about feel for the shot. Maybe your friend needs 20Practice strokes before Shooting that's his rhythm not yours. Your rhythm is unique to you and Not what someone says it should be. The really important thing to Remember is to pay more attention to the set position. Take longer at...

Hey Ship. I'm posting several videos in sequence for your review. Hope these help ya out. The only thing I would add to this video is once you see the straight line walk up to the butt of the cue so that you can see where it is pointed on your body keeping the shot straight in line as you see...

Practice These Five Shots Brian https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1Psy5hOJT0 Place donuts at each QB and OB position. They all can be made with a QB edge to "A" and a CCB to OB edge perception. Number five is easier with a QB edge to "B" the pivot to cue ball center is not as drastic as the...

In Bold: Stan would never say this. Attention to where the cue tip is pointed on the QB is only after he has fallen down into the shooting position as dictated by the visual. The tip will not be on CCB and must be pivoted to CCB. Attention to the OB then is no longer needed it becomes irrelevant...

Alright Brian I'll give it a shot. Note: At Neils suggestion I put my aiming system away almost three weeks ago and have used CTE for my daily practice sessions.(about 2+ hours per day) I'm impressed. Manual Pivoting In Bold above. This isn't exactly true. The fixed cue ball is determined from...
