    Improving Mental Focus

    Newer trends vs. "old school"

    Yea I am 47 and the cell phone users are the worst annoying ring tones, constant distractions, the hold up of the match and the loss of focus when you have one of these people on your team is amazing. I agree with the other stuff to and as our world becomes more mechanized the following...

    Improving Mental Focus

    My word to myself is "freeze", it's monosyllabic so since that connection between the conscious and subconscious is so tenuous the shorter the message the better (IMHO) and it’s easier for me to "inner visualize" therefore a stronger signal in the 1st place.

    Moving head! But why? Video. Help.

    That’s what I said; but look at where it moves, it shifts over your right eye every time. I would try what I said and see what happens (video that also). I would also put the camera on the diamond directly in front of you or as close as you can get. I can see it but it’s hard to see exactly how...

    Have at me! :)

    First let me be another one of those people that congratulates you; this is one great way to get some help and I want you ignore people like this. These people tend to think that they came out of the womb shooting great pool; that being said I think you should go through this website video by...

    Moving head! But why? Video. Help.

    You may know this already so sorry if this doesn’t help; you are right handed and that probably means you’re right eyed also. You are switching from straddling the cue directly between your eyes to directly under your dominant eye on your delivery stroke. So you warm-up between and deliver under...

    Is Scott Lee any good?

    I may be reading a lot into this little statement; and I mean all this in a much more light hearted way than it may appear. This line of thought comes up every once in a while; prospective students sometimes think that I am going to “teach them how to play pool the way I do” no it doesn’t work...

    Racking location of "spot ball" in rack getting weight playing rack your own

    An alternate history that said he would have lost had that not been the case. I understand what you are saying but if he just got “beat by the rack” then why. That’s why I said “he is a lost customer anyway”. But I understand how you are thinking and why.

    Apa tournament.. Do I have the right to be a little pissed?

    Trob I read your whole post but obviously there were some that didn’t; here is just a suggestion, if you would paragraph it out into 3-6 line paragraphs it would be a little easier to read; maybe more of these lazy readers would “take more of it in”. I would be so pissed it wouldn’t even be...

    I think I know what she is getting at and this could be a shorter way to correct the problem; good stuff continue this dialouge with her, she knows.

    Racking location of "spot ball" in rack getting weight playing rack your own

    I considered them, in handicapped matches are there designated positions for balls other than the 1 and 9? I know, I never get into $ games with weight with people I don’t know. I think he is a lost customer no matter what, do you think that the guy giving the spot lost because the spotee...

    Racking location of "spot ball" in rack getting weight playing rack your own

    refer to the rules. 2. RACKING THE BALLS. The object balls are racked in a diamond shape, with the one ball at the top of the diamond and on the foot spot, the nine ball in the center of the diamond, and the other balls in random order, racked as tightly as possible. the game begins with cue...

    How to win when the rolls are against you

    1 ball/1 situation at a time, be “present” in that moment only; not the immediate past or future, go deeper into your fundamentals and never care/look at what the score is.

    hitting them harder...

    To all: Read my signature. Bruce: As one hits harder overall play level drops; I know you have some idea of the relationship between shot speed and overall play or else you wouldn’t have been shooting as softly as you can all this time. But why does overall play drop? Many people don’t...

Now set the balls up the same way and try to get shape using draw-right 5-10 times. If you’re like most people the...
