    Advantages or Disadvantages does it make a difference Stepping into the shot vs. stepping back from the shot?

    Advantages or Disadvantages does it make a difference Stepping into the shot vs. stepping back from the shot?

    Without ''seeing'' your step in then step back and then step in, I can only guess what needs fixing. I taught a man in the late nineties that had good fundamentals, But I named his problem ''the creeping crab'', Why? When he got Down on the shot and placed his hand on table he was in the...

    Many pros leave chalk on the rail. Whom ever invented Round Chalk/Miscue. When they roll under table, or roll on too play surface. Gotten down on my knees many times in life, to find the chalk. I prefer thee old method :). Chalk on a string attached above table, chalk never Walk :).

    People who use chalk holders...what do you do when

    Yeah, but if you play for many hours with you hand in/out of your pocket a few hundred times it damages your skin, and the pocket bottom will become unthreaded. It's why men's jeans have those small r/s pockets. HEAVY coins always works it's way thru the pocket bottom threads.

    People who use chalk holders...what do you do when

    I've seen an Asian room owner do this with his house chalk. When the chalk wore down 1/2 way, he'd tape another 1/2 worn on to it keeping the chalk size normal.
