Watched this yesterday. Great Work Dave.I just posted a new video on YouTube that demonstrates everything you need to know about dealing with and taking best advantage of a pocket “hanger.” Here it is:
Topics covered include:
- good things about hangers (0:06)
- things that can go wrong with hangers (0:40)
- avoiding a scratch (1:25)
- driving a ball through a hanger (2:24)
- cue ball control (3:16)
- cue ball reference directions (5:28)
- speed/cut/spin effects (7:05)
- game-situation examples (9:13)
- useful target drills (10:19)
- shooting along a rail (10:44)
- shooting along a diagonal (13:02)
This video is a little on the longer side (15 minutes), but the material in presented very concisely (but still completely). Multiple viewings (and/or pause/rewind cycles) might be required for everything to sink in.
This one took a lot of time and effect to create, but I am very happy with the end result. Thanks to "Tin Man" for suggesting this video topic along with some good ideas.
Please let me know what you think, and let me know if anything is unclear or if you have any questions.
Enjoy,
Dave

As a co-worker used to say, "Free is at the top of my price range.":thumbup:Well the price of the video is kind of steep don't you think? No wonder the thumbs down. Surprised there aren't 10x more yet...
Thank you. I agree that the video contains lots of good advice for "lower level players." However, I think the best advice in the video (e.g., the hanger CB reference directions) can help many advanced players a great deal. I often see a lack of good hanger control, even among top players.Dr Dave... just like to say this is great video & will help many many pool players... especially those lower level players... keep up the great job my friend!!! :thumbup:
Thank you. They honestly don't bother me. They just make me curious as to what these sorts of people are thinking (or not).Don't worry about the ones who hit Dis-like...
Now that's funny!(they are probably Russian hacks trying/or thinking they are interfering in our election... lol)
FYI, if you want to spend more quality time watching videos, I recommend my following YouTube playlists:I'll spend quality time in this thread, thanks.
Thanks. I'm glad you liked it.Watched this yesterday. Great Work Dave.
FYI, I already have this topic covered fairly well with the info and videos here:Now I would like to see a Pop & Squat Break Video.
Good idea. I'll add this to my future videos list. Simply put, use the end piece for a normal jump and remove it for a highly elevated jump or when using a dart stroke. FYI, everything else concerning jump shot variations is covered in detail in the info and videos here:A 3 Piece Jump Cue video.

Funny! I am kind of a "tight wad" myself, so I like it.As a co-worker used to say, "Free is at the top of my price range.":thumbup:

Some people have suggested that my videos are too long and contain too much information presented too quickly. What do you guys think about this? Should I present a video like this instead as multiple shorter videos with many more examples for each concept? Or do you guys think the dense/concise-info approach is better?I just posted a new video on YouTube that demonstrates everything you need to know about dealing with and taking best advantage of a pocket “hanger.” Here it is:

Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad you liked it.Great information here, Dave. Thanks for making it available. The hanger CB reference direction portion of the video was the most helpful for me, but all of it was quite worthwhile.
