Just ran across this channel, and I'm not sure if it's this guy's tone of voice, the speed at which he speaks, his vocabulary or a little bit of each, but he seems to have a knack for teaching. Maybe his style is just the type I prefer, but I've ran across several "diamond aiming" videos, and this is the first one that actually kept my interest and actually understood what he was saying.
I truly appreciate your comments.
I've watched many videos on this system but never got it until watching this one. Thanks Bryan. (Oliver)
Everybody wants to learn "THE" Diamond system. There's not one "Diamond system" there are many!love your videos!
The best explanation of 2 rail bank system I have seen. Thanks!
Of all the pool instructional videos I've watched yours are far and away the very best.
Thank you very much - and my viewers are far and away the best.
I have to come back to this video every now and then... Good stuff 👍
Very informative. You’re the best pool instructor on UA-cam 🎱
Thank you very much and thank you for watching and for your comments.
Damn that last shot was amazing. 👏
One of the best descriptions simplified for anyone to understand. Thank You Brian..... The Diamond system Works!!! Just like the mirror system, once you break it down, simplify it then, "BAM" there it is.....
Great stuff Brian. Everytime I watch your videos I am more aware when I’m at the table. Really helps my game. Thank you!
Watch this video over and over and use it in my game all the time. Works wonders for me. Thanks
This was super helpful! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
The more I watch this video the more I like it.
All I can say is thank you very much for this insight.
Thnx Bryan, that really made sense to me. I get it now...I can see the angles on the table (lifetime machinist) and usually get close kicking, but this gives me a better start point. now...gotta go practice!
I was also a machinist 20 years.
I learned a few different things from this Diamond vid Brian...Thank you! I’ve been following you for several months now and my game’s improving! With this pandemic, my pool hall has been closed so have had to practice on a small table at home...but it seems to work! Again, greatly appreciate your videos. BTW, as you suggested recently, I reached out to the owner of the pool hall today to let him know he’s appreciated for not closing his doors. Cheers!
U are an amazing teacher
Thank you Erika. Please let me know if I can help your game in any way.
I knew some of it but now I hope I will know a little more, thank you. Thank you for always throwing in the real world Scenarios.
Keep up the good work!!! Very helpful
Thanks, will do!
Ty Ty... thank you for all your help... I've been watching you for about 5 years now and let me tell you something you are the man and I am definitely learning from your videos... I appreciate you my brother
Dennis King wow- thanks for sticking with us so long.
Finally!!! Someone who explains how the diamond system works in reality! Normally I use my strong math background on geometry and trig to just wing these shots, but now I understand how it works. Thanks Bryan, and nice job!
Hi, if you are honestly good at math, then here is my suggestion. When using running English always in this situation, just know that anytime you are kicking on the table, the cueball is actually making a parallelogram! So in theory, if you can conceptualize a parallelogram and then visualize the kick in reverse, for example, then you will never have a problem with these kicks at all going forward!
Great explanation! Watched a couple other systems for two rail but this was easy and works really well.
This is a great video
Ok so practice makes perfect......this systems seems to clear as mud but crystal clear at the same time. You do a very good job explaining pool and techniques
Thanks for the instructions.
Love this drill going to work on it
Great!
Wow.....I wanna learn 😃
Thanks for the tip at the end, that really helps.
Only about one minute into this and I have to mention that your first shot was fantastic. Depending on how far from the rail those two balls are from the rail, the possibility of scratching could be prohibitive, however. The slow-motion used was a great touch making it much easier to see what you are doing. Will have to watch it at least once more to get everything you showed here. Even so, without watching again I picked up enough to increase the quality of my game. Cheers
Excellent instruction! Thank you so much.
Tom Connor Thank you for watching I’m glad it helped
Wonderfully described. Thank you, Brian.
My pleasure!
Love your diamond system approach to 2 rail kick shots.
This was a great video don’t know if I totally got it but I’ll work on it.
Thanks so much for everything you do.
Very Helpful Brian Thank you
Great educational service!
Wow Brian you nailed this one fabulously. I truly believe i can finally grasp the diamond system now. Cant wait to practice this and master it too. Thanks
I'm glad to help - thanks for watching and thanks for the comments.
fantastic video !!! very easy to understand
Wow alot to take in! But as usual I'll watch ten more times and go practice. See if i can comprehend all the information. Thank you.
It's complicated but simple all in one. Like having a teenage daughter.
Definitely something to learn here ... that and very interesting. Nice!
Thank you
Very interesting thank you very much Brian
I could use a sweet cue 😅 couldn't hurt my game .
So good! Thanks.
Love the diamond system- good stuff Bryan!! Tough stuff to teach!!
yes, I kept putting this off because I did not know how I would explain it. Had to pull out the graphics. lol
Wow !! What a great vid. Really alot to think about on this one You're awrsome & thank you
Thanks for the information
I love the system use it all the time now got me out of a lot of jams
Awesome explanation
Glad you liked it
Thank you very much
You are welcome
Needed this.
Kick shot is defin6my weakness...
Let alone 2rail kick...
Some good info there Bryan!
Saying hi from Vancouver here!!!
Instant fan. Subscribed. Looking forward to more videos. Great job.
Welcome aboard! Thanks for watching and subscribing
Very good tutorial on the diamond system Bryan. Keep 'em coming man!
Be well,
Al-Fu
Thanks, will do! Thanks for checking it out.
Love your videos, thank you
Mark D Foster thank you for watching and your comments.
Great Video Brian, Thanks. Almost Practice time too.LOL
Got your video. I will check it out. Thanks.
Essentially, this is the 2+ method, or the Law of Parallels For Two Rail Kicks as illustrated by PoolDawg. I teach 3-cushion, as well as a game called Solid Eight (All solids, one through eight, played in rotation like 9-ball, that only has one rule - you cannot shoot a ball directly into a pocket; so, it has to be either a carom or combination or bank - and kicks are banks). I mastered the Corner Five diamond system many years ago; however, I also discovered that I could use either the Parallel System or the Vanishing Point System interchangeably, depending on the shot, to closely match a Corner Five return track. These two systems do not use math, but instead use visualization to 'see' the ball's path. I find these two systems are fairly accurate on a known table.
I need to practice and learn this
Excellent video Bryan. I've seen many videos, but this has been the best yet. Still planning on joining your channel after this pandemic. Stay well and vigilant. How about a video on using the Bridge. Hand positioning and etc. Thanks. GD
george dennis thanks. Glad to help. Thanks for your comments.
Very nice
Thank you. I understand the numbers on the short rail but can you break it down in more details how to count from object ball and cue ball
The number you are using is the number of diamonds the cue ball is away from the Object ball, but you want to find a diamond that intersects the short rail number with the long rail number and the cue ball. I know its difficult at times but that is the best way I can word it. Balls are 3 diamonds apart or maybe 4 diamonds apart. Which number on the short and long rail when connected, would land directly over the cue ball. That is the spot you will shoot through.
Wow so much great iinformation. Interesting how the choice of words affects understanding. My words would be when banking forget the rail, aim based on the diamonds or (dots as we call them) and shoot "through the rail" as if it wasn"t there or it"s an opened window. Saying shoot through the diamond confused me.
Thanks once again for your expertise and time for the Diamond system video it’s a wonderful system to know but I believe for me it’s best to learn this System hands on not virtually. I’m better hands on by a great instructor like your self. 🙏🏻🎱🙏🏻🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱
Pool Florian we will get there one day. Be safe and maybe I’ll see you tonight on the lifestream at 9:30.
FXBilliards Wow sadly I’m gonna miss tonight great live stream I’m at work right now. Maybe in the Future you’ll be able to record it and post it again later on?!!
It just seems to me the best way would be to use values of 10 instead of single digits. It is so much easier to "see" the fractional divisions between diamonds if you are looking for say 12 instead of 1.2. They are actually the same thing but just easier to grasp. You can divide each distance between diamonds into 10 integers. The short rail diamonds would be 30-50-70 and the long rail numbers would be 10-20-30-etc.
There are people who do that. Jennifer B using 10s. Thanks for watching.
nice system to follow. im installing diamonds on my table this weekend. would it be possible for you to give me 2 quick measurements. from the cushion edge to the middle of the diamond and the space between diamonds (center to center). Thanks in advance
Wow, that is the most interesting question. I have never been asked that and I am not sure I would get it correct for you. But let's start with why size is your table. Maybe someone else might have a better idea than me. Even tables of the same size might differ depending on the size of the wood frame and depth of the rails. I would hate to give you bad measurements. Might be something you can google.
@@FXBilliards 7 foot table mate ill be using 7/16th round diamonds.
ive googled and googled, cant find anything. So any measurements you can give me is a start, ill be laying down tape first so i can shot a few shots using the marks on the tape as 'diamonds' first.
@@MrCaptainAustralia the best I could come up with is this link. www.reddit.com/r/billiards/comments/a5l9q0/diy_diamonds_on_home_pool_table/ There is math here for a 9 feet table that might work with some adjustments. If you call your billiards supply store, they might have a layout or something they can send you. I don't think they are very busy right now.
@@FXBilliards that link was a huge help, got my head around the maths and installed the rail sights this morning. Thanks for the help
quick question. Each time I watch a diamond system video the cueball is always a few inches off the rail. Lets say that the cueball is about a diamond and a half out from the rail. Does that effect the calculations ?
Ken Armstrong As long as you can align your cue and the CB with a diamond on the long rail and a diamond corresponding on the short rail -everything is the same.
Thanks for the video. What I took from it is, on the short rail the pocket is one. From where the object ball is you'd count as zero. Is this correct?
That is correct. The corner is ONE because the diamond system comes from 3 cushion Billiards where there are no pockets.
@@FXBilliards thanks for the response. These shots are tricky. Appreciate the video
How do we get the this diamond system
What's the system for when you have to start the kick from the long rail?
I teach two systems in part one and two. There is the “diamond system” and “parallel shift. “
@@FXBilliards Thank you!
Does temperature or humidity affect the system as it does in bank shots
Steve Topping I would imagine that temperature change, humidity, etc. Will affect how your cloth runs but I don’t believe it’s enough to change things dramatically from one day to the next. At least it’s not something that I’ve noticed. I can tell you that, if the temperature difference is extreme, the cloth will run faster and that’s why they heat the tables in Billiards
@@FXBilliards Thanks Brian,, good to know
That's why I like to practice on a table for a while before I play a match. And I concentrate how the cloth and the rails react.
The diamonds system only works for me for kicking. And you can also apply spin to increase angle or take it away if there are obstacle balls.
Chuck Felton Thanks for watching and thanks for your comments - I think you’re saying speed. And you’re correct - but I had no way to explain it and quantify it in the video without making it five minutes longer.
Spin.
You are a DIAMOND
little s gaming i’m speechless- thank you
What if the object ball is off the rail? Can you do a tutorial on that?
Sounds good I’ll do a video down the road and I’ll talk about it on the live stream tonight
evan bryan it may take me five days but I will try to knock out a video for you. I did teach it in one of the five must have pool shot videos but I don’t remember which one.
@@FXBilliards ok thank you! I know the parallel shift from the mid point of the cue ball and object to the pocket but not sure if the diamond system works for that also.
evan bryan Yes there is a way to use the system for balls in the middle of the table -but parallel shifting it’s probably simpler
All I got is a little curiosity. What cue are you using? That doesn't look like your blak4.
That is a Predator Icon 2 with the Revo attached. I switch them out from time to time. Usually for no reason other than a change.
@@FXBilliards I've mentioned it before, but I own more than my share of quality cues and a IKON is on my list of cues I like. Specifically a IKON 2-2 or a 2-3. My BLAK 4 is my main cue, but I hit a few with all of them. Missed a lot of your chat because I had keen interest in the NFL draft 1st round, but I did watch you later. Keep up the great content. Can't speak for all, but you have helped my game a lot.
“Diamond System is easy, but hard to explain.” It’s must be like “Time”, everyone knows what it is until asks to explain it. Good job!
