PLease evaluate part 2

You raise your head up about an inch or two just before you begin your final stroke.
Why?

I don't really know I'm doing it at the time. I think whats happening now is that I am so inconsistant that I'm looking to see how i am going to miss.
 
I can only encourage you to make sure nothing keeps you from getting into Randy's school. There seems to be much to work on.

Thank you for posting this. I've often thought of doing the same thing.
People, this is the only way we can give accurate reviews. These camera angles are what we do in pool school. If you want good feedback, this is what we need to see.

Good job, Mark!
 
My 2 cents...you aim on the fly. You rarely look at the shot or the position and adjust after you're down. Pool is a static game, and there aren't any moving parts to watch. You're playing like there are moving targets. A short pre-shot routine may give your eyes/brain just enough time to make a better alignment for each shot.

You come in from different angles on each shot. You switch your aiming eyes/alignment because your head is in a different position as you get down. You play really good, then miss an easy shot. Your eyes are adjusting on the move. Your brain is adjusting on the move.

Take a second and look at the shot consistently. Give your body a chance to get on the correct shot line. You switched where your cue was located under your eyes a couple of times. You missed badly when you did. I know. I do this from time to time, too.

Best,
Mike
