I've been working on my nemesis shot, the straight-in draw shot. Been using the golf tees as feedback. I believe I saw this on Joe Tucker's website.
Anyway, as you can see in Pic #1 it's pretty much a straight-in draw shot with the four golf tees around the shaft.
As you can see in Pic #2 I made the shot but the shaft knocked both white tees over.
So, instructors or good players, what does this tell you? This is fairly common when I shoot this golf tee drill.

Could be any number of things. Your stick is going to the left after the hit. My guess is your arm is too far away from your body and you're tucking the stick toward you as you stroke/at follow through. You might be twisting your wrist. You might just be too far away from the stick, you might be twisted/not aligned properly, you might have your belly in the way or something. There's no way of telling based on the aftermath pictures. Good job making the shot, but now you need to figure out the tee part.
I only slightly jest on the belly part. I I wear bibs sometimes and I have to be careful not to hit my grip hand on the bibs on follow through. The fabric bunches up and causes it to happen, not fat causing it but just fabric. It's a shame too because I like wearing bibs to a tournament. Roomy, your ass crack isn't showing, also causes some people to underestimate your game, and as silly as it sounds, I've got compliments from both ladies and gentlemen. They aren't a bad outfit. 30 years ago they wouldn't have stood out around here. Now it probably reminds them of their nice old grandpa or something. People seem to treat someone who wears bibs nicer by default. IDK, maybe it's disarming but I've seen some real scrappers wear them back in the day ...but I digress.
You might be twisting your wrist. In all honesty it's very difficult to just diagnose something seeing the aftermath. Instead of trying to play crime scene photographic forensics after the fact, you should get
a cheap $20 tripod that holds a cell phone off amazon and record yourself. You don't have to post it here, but you can tell an awful lot watching the video in slow motion or frame by frame. That $20 tripod, in combination with the drill you just did could really pay dividends if you use it to self diagnose. It even comes with a keychain fob size remote you can hit play and stop from at the table.
Do you notice the stick veering if you stroke it with no CB in place?
