A lot of detail, but this post reminds me of people who like to say "I never expected that." The balls only do what you do to them. Of course they rarely do exactly what you expect, so for every shot you should think briefly about why the plan and the outcome were different.
Again, if I wasn't clear or you just didn't get it,
I am not trying to make a particular shot
I am trying to learn a process, a technique, a step by step roadmap
I am trying to master the game
for now, at least, master making 95+% of the shots
anyone can be taught this
the hard part is the Intent, focus, judgement, and discipline
to implement each and every step on every shot
So here are 4 videos that are good for at least 24 hours
This is my improvement in just under one single week
Not earth shattering but...
the straight in shot: my goal is to make it 25 time without missing
I'm up to eight
That table length cut shot: I make two times in a row in the next video
then in the last two video I make it 3 times in a row in each
my short term goal is 6 times in a row
my longer term goal is 10 times in a row
I'm still moving around when I shoot
my stroke is not straight most often
and my stroke is not smooth
I can fix these
and I'm sure I'll increase my make percentage a lot when I do
and quickly
just see the videos of my progress
you can do this too
just as quickly

Short term hosting. 1 or 2 days I think. You can grab 'em too if you need them for reference. This series was table length cuts down the short rail. Couple I watched looked like your typical set, cinch shot.
On this free video hosting website, the videos only last 24 hours and are limited to 250MB and 10 minutes in length.
One of my posted videos demonstrated my ability at the time to make a rather long straight in shot.
In the video I made shot only 8 times in a row.
That was last Tuesday, about 5 days ago.
Here is the progress I made since then.
Below you can see that I make this same shot 18 times in a row.
I really don't expect most of you to watch it, especially because the video is 11:54 long.
But keep in mind that my purpose is not to learn this particular shot.
My purpose is to perfect and learn my shot making technique, method, system.
This is work. And can be boring.
It requires discipline.
I expect to improve much more in another week or so.
There are lots of aspects to my shot making that needs correction and improvement.
I'm working on those as well.
Now, because the video hosting limits videos to 10 minutes, I had to split the video into two parts.
To prove continuity, the first video overlaps the second video by one full minute.
Okay. This is enough for now. Here is the 11:54 length video in 2 parts.
The first part starts at 00:00 - 07:00
Part two is from 06:00 - 11:54
