My stroke goes from 'diamond' to 'rust' often. Its very strange. I've been "studying" the phenominon for 20 years how. Here are a few of my own 'mental terms' and conditions that I came up with. Thought I share to see if others have noted them:
Wagging - Moving the back hand back and forth..dialing in on the sweet spot
LastSecondChange(LSC) - when you change your line up (feared and changed your mind on the line up) and move the back hand out of position at the final stroke.
AdNauseumSrokes - stoking the ball over and over and over to avoid the LSC (mental 'changed my mind')
Deflection = Lying - thats why I don't like it. The smaller the lie ...happier I am. Here is the CLASSIC tell tale of it:
Hard Spin the CB off the rail to 'toss' the nine in Green is the Meucii Red Dot, black is the predator:
START( %Ir9Q8%PT9N5%Wr8Z6%Xr8S0%Yq3R0%ZT7N3%]r2P3%^T8N4%ei2h1 )END
I can make this shot %95 with the predator. About %75 with my former Meucci (20 year Meucci fan) ..had to "WARM UP" on the shot to test the 'lie' factor. BackHand English is the only this can really be made without a predator (or BLACK DOT) ...but with the length of roll - good luck getting the power out it to drop that nine. For this single shot alone is why I'm a predator fan - EXTREME SIDE SPIN.
The Wag and Snag - when you wag and STROKE QUICKLY - FOUND IT! for fear of moving that backHand out of line in an LSC. I've watch PRO'S do this. Its generates into a 'JAB' shot every time.
The Blink - When you actually SHUT YOURS EYES for second! - Happens on the break must often with people ... not "keeping thier eye on the ball". Can happen other times as well. Few people even realize it happened and don't know why things went wrong.
UnIntentional Masse - Inside english when CB is on/close the rail is the TOUGHEST shot! Almost impossible.
Example - 'B' area is desired:
START( %Ha7D8%Ir3N3%PQ3Z2%Rg1U5%Wr0D2%Xc0D8 )END
--- A bunch more that I need to think about ...one I call the "Roll Over" that happens when your cue "rides" the CB (most often off the rail) causing a long contact and a 'throw' to arise. Hard to describe
I have learned that - while "I SuK Today" - tomorrow I'll be PRO again. I just wish I could choose to not play on the SuK days - LOL
