Just got my table setup, not even a spot on it yet. 7 foot table only, and the room is still kinda cramped in a couple places. Those French Doors sure do come in handy though.
This is the first time I've seen myself play. It's funny how much what you think you're doing and what you actually are differ. There would be more/better footage, but the battery died after that game. I might be able to get another video tomorrow.
Anyway, I'm not so much concerned with the gameplay as I am with the fundamentals at this point. One thing I noticed is that my grip hand is under my body, and not in line with my shoulder/elbow like I had imagined it being. I still lack any semblance of a preshot routine, and my stance probably isn't right and is probably what is throwing my arm off. Also I drop my elbow on most shots.
If anyone could offer any advice I'd be very happy to hear it. Thanks.
And feel free to comment on anything else.
