Can anyone help me out? What are the advantages of getting low on your cue?

Low is Best

I was just curious if anyone could give me some insight on some of the advantages of getting lower on your cue vs standing a little higher up. I personally get down low but i have also experimented with playing a little more upright but i found my cueball wasnt nearly as good. Thanks.

Having a low stance is the best. Everyone who agrees with a low stance all make great points how important it is to stay down low which helps your aiming and to find that spot on your object ball. I find myself so low that my shirt (the front part of my chest) gets dirty from the cloth. It is also very important that you find out about your strong eye and adjust to it.

It's good to be able to play with all different types of stances but on some shots it's a luxury to be able to get down low and be able to see the tip of your cue, the cue ball, the object ball, and the pocket all without having to move your head, just by moving your eyes.
