It's all in the feet, everything else follows the feet.
For a right handed player,,, left handed will be opposite.
If you are too close to the shot you will have unwarranted muscle pressure in your bridge hand,forearm,shoulders,back,neck,knees, most likely your knees are bent too much, you are sitting in your stance. It's a great recipe to jump up and all sorts of movement.
If you are too far off the shot you you are lunging in...Extreme pressure on the left knee, thigh, foot,hips,etc.etc.etc. Stroke delivery becomes a disaster and you are ready to fall on your face.
These positions can be so small that we think its ok and we can complete our mission, and sometimes we can. (usually not on a consistent basis )
We are not smarter than our brain. Don't fight the brain.
The brain wants to correct unbalance at any level and it wants to do it instantly. If you are walking and step on something and lose your balance, think about how fast you correct it. It's an instant reaction to get on balance.
I believe in remaining still. Just remind yourself to keep still until the ball drops, then raise your eyes and send the cue ball to position. This will keep you still.
