I'm finding that I have a very difficult time adjusting my game to changing conditions. When the equipment changes (e.g. different cue ball, felt, etc) or ambient humidity/temperature after a few hours of play, it feels like I spend hours (all night) fighting my own muscle memory trying to re-adjust.
When conditions naturally fit my "feel", I simply cannot do wrong, I make every ball, get position every time, run balls effortlessly...dead stroke with little effort. However, once something changes it falls apart and getting it back again is so damn hard.
How do top players get around this and adjust to changes in conditions so quickly? It's definitely my biggest weakness and I cannot figure out how to overcome it. Are there any tips to faster adaptation? Or am I just naturally stubborn and don't have the gift?
