Shane shooting differently...

I'm watching the finals match of him vs kiamco for the JA tournament and I definitely noticed that shanes shooting without that wierd arm/elbow movement...looks like his old stroke back in 07-08....anyone else notice this?
 
he doesn't have that very pronounced "hitch" during the pause on his final backswing..... looks more mechanical now (at least compared to what it was)..

he is playing great but just didn't have a good match against Kiamco, couple errors and the match is done against a player like warren.
 
He's refining his fundamentals...

Watched him play some today.Looks to me like he is shooting softer then he did during his run of dominance.

Anytime I end up shooting softer, I am working out the kinks in my stroke. Certainly can't do it by slamming in shots. I was watching the video again and even his stance is changing, it's more squared up to the shot instead of close to being in line. So you can tell he's working things out. He's missing shots a little more frequently these past tournaments than he used to and it's costing him matches and overall the tournament. I think the best thing about this is that even at high levels of pool, even the pros go through major changes in their fundamentals and refining it.
