I was watching this match. Audio is a little funny
but Danny Harriman's commentary makes Alvin tolerable.
In it they discuss stroke length.
I tried to use the short backswing a a couple
years ago. I couldn't hold out longer than
3 months of almost daily practice. I gave
up on it. Just couldn't get the timing right.
Probably gave in too soon.
I feel like some of the most consistent players
use it. Some of the best money players. I
like that it limits motion and thus will remove
some margin of error.
Alex, Hopkins, Mark Gray, these guys come to mind.
Has anyone gone from a "normal" or long pool stroke
like Shane, Earl, Ko's, Melling. To a short one and
had success?
Not wondering about pros so much,
just the players here.
