I'm getting frustrated with this game. I ran 35 and missed an easy shot. I tend to shoot too fast and not take my time.
My end pattern play sucks. I just generally look at what I think will make a good break shot and key ball and pop balls in without giving things too much thought and when I get to my key ball, I have the wrong angle by half an inch.
I know I should walk around the table and look at position from where the cue ball is going to travel, but I don't. Arrrrgggggggg!
Any drills that would help with end ball patterns? Other than balls in front of the side pocket, what other key ball positions make good choices? My friend likes to take balls that are below the break shot. He's no slouch with a high run of 154 on a diamond table. My friend also videos our practice sessions and I know that helps with fundamentals that tend to deteriorate at times. What else should I look for?
