I have languished over this problem many times. It's not tough shots or shots I don't know . I start missing balls 2 feet from the pocket straight in and just trying to stop my cueball.
I have come to the conclusion that it is not mechanics or skill or anything exotic.
I believe it is just FOCUS.
Some days, there is just too much going on in my mind to think about making pool balls, and if I try to play on those days, I always get horrible results.
The few times I have really played well in my life, at the end of the day I was thinking only of pool and enjoying it alone for that time.
