tyvm to the entire thread. good stuff. now about this guy... https://forums.azbilliards.com/threads/names-from-the-past.272594/page-14#post-4238507 wut???

curious. what sort of drills have you been doing to practice shooting while not concentrating, or under pressure?

break cue mostly, to save my playing tip. for 9-10 ball anyway. 8 ball i use the second ball break, i wouldnt even attempt it with my phenolic tip break cue, always use playing cue for that.

i started playin lefty almost from the beginning, read about doing it in Byrne's standard or advanced i think. just dabbled. i doubt i lined up any better that way than playin regular then. in Drawing On the Right Side of the Brain there are exercises where you do portraits upside down... got...

from the vids up on yt, he appears to favor the left eye both hands. maybe wonky camera angles.

probly right. doubt that'll stop em. to set up for a longer follow-through.

in "banks that dont go, but do", Freddy Bentivegna touches on this follow strokes = grip emphasis on index/middle dead ball = middle fingers draw strokes = rear fingers or something along those lines. worth a watch. edit: lil clip of him talking about it on yt

idk what i expected when i clicked on this thread. all i know is now i am very sad.
