CJ - can you clarify this - I have watched most of your TOI videos. I have practiced using TOI with inconsistent results. I understand that one of the principles is that the squirt/deflection will create the cut angle - depending on speed of the shot. Do you use a low deflection shaft? - because my low deflection shaft squirts very little, so I still have to aim for a cut - there is not enough squirt to fully alter the path to create the cut angle.
You teach to set up a shot with a slight angle, aim full and let the inside English squirt the cue ball enough to make the shot. My shaft will not squirt that much, so I still have to aim with some cut angle.
Does any of this make any difference as to how using TOI works. Less squirt is usually good, so maybe if I continue practicing with it, my consistency will improve. You have convinced me that on many shots where I used to use outside, that inside is actually better. For one example, transferring “get in” English to the object ball by using inside will increase the pocketing percentage.
