what is YOUR preshot routine?

Thank you everyone!!!

I started this thread with the intention of improving my PSR, and thats exactly what I got out of it! So A BIG THANK YOU TO Fran crimi, Scott Lee, Naji, Joe W, BRKNRUN, Bdorman, PGHteacher, TATE, Bavafongoul, VIProfessor, PaulieB, Ifigueroa, maestro, Dunnn51, creedo, Framedglasshadd, and everyone else who posted!

This thread gave me a lot that I want to try and also some things that I already know that I want to add to my PSR. I am going to start planning 3 balls ahead after every shot. Im also adding walking around the table every time I come to the table and after I make a couple of balls to make sure I have a clear understanding to where all the colors are on the table in relation to the pockets and have a understanding as to how I would like to run them out. I also hope that this understanding and planning will give me more confidence in tournaments and will calm my nerves.

I am going to experement with this and a couple of other things and try to develop the most fundamentally sound and consistant PSR in the hope that the more consistancy I have in my PSR the more consistancy I will have in my game over all. I will post again once I have had a chance to play around with these things and I will share what has helped me and how it has changed my game.
 
:scratchhead:

Recognizing the problem balls right away and figure out what ball you need to get on it or break it out is important.


With each shot, your plan might change depending on angles and position.


With eight ball, I use balls going into a side pocket a lot for break shots.
 
:speechless:

When you are tall and old, a chin a cue would never work. The older I get, the more I stand up and shoot. :sorry:

Sorry about that, at least attempt to know where your head is in reference to something, so your eyes always in same place.

As far as the chin some might want to have left or right touching shaft, or side of chin, main thing have a guide for your stroke, and fixed eye position.
