Wow!!! Thank you… awesome!!! Yes please… some drills would definitely be helpful!!👍👍
I actually just learned the "mirror system" today for kick shots and as soon as i saw you line up to the opposite pocket it clicked it's exactly the same only cutting the table in half rather than doubling it made my whole day because this seems much easier than trying to imagine a mirrored table
Wow. I've seen several videos on this topic and this is the most well illustrated coz of the ff:
1. Your voice is so pleasant in my ears
2. The illustration of your video using x and lines will really stick to our mind.
3. Straight to the point on how to do it unlike others, they have side comments which could distract us.
Maraming salamat.
Another great tutorial. Easy to understand and outstanding camera views. I know it must take a lot of your time to create these tutorials and I can't thank you enough for investing your time to improve my game. As word spreads your subscriber count will explode. 👍👍
Thank you for your words of encouragement! It is comments like yours that makes all the time and effort I put into producing my videos worth it.
NP You earned the praise.@@billiards4U
I wish we could see the position of your locked arm in the video ?
I think your doing a good job on your videos hope you keep them coming. Can you tell me about your table rails an cloth ? Thanks
@Charles-cz1pw My table is an old valley model 13. I replaced the rails with penguin brand pro pocket rails so the pockets are 4.25" wide. The rails and table are covered with simonis 760 cloth in the color tournament blue. It is as close as you can get to playing on a diamond table without paying thousands for a diamond table
Thanks going to do same to my valley
Omg!!! This is a great learning video to learn about shooting pool for beginners I just became a new subscriber and I am looking forward to seeing more videos on how to get better at shooting pool.
Thank you. ❤
Thank you for the positive feedback and for subscribing. It brings me a lot of joy to know I am helping others improve their game.
Nice video. Your kick example is when the two balls are close to parallel. Can this still work if the object ball is closer to the opposite rail?
Yes,, this system works no matter how the balls are situated. You may have to make slight adjustments to longer kicks and banks that require a harder hit on the cue ball. Harder hit balls will rebound at a reduced angle. I am working on part 2 of this video where I discuss how to account for speed variations and off center cue ball hits when banking and kicking.
Just excellent! Have subscribed and will watch your previous ones and eagerly await the new ones!
Awesome, thank you!
These videos are pretty well done. Good instructions.
Thank you for the positive feedback!
Great job, good information!
Solid video, I'll use this now. Thanks
This is great. Thank you.
Does this work on the long rail?
It does to a certain extent...let me explain. Speed is a huge variable when banking. Even when the cue ball is hit dead center, as a bank shot is hit with more speed the rebound angle decreases. Since banks shots hit towards the short rail have a longer distance to travel to the pocket, you have to hit the shot with more speed. So, you will usually need to aim the bank wide to compensate. I am in the process of producing a video on this topic. I will post the link to your comment when I upload it.
What kind of cue is that? Beautiful!
It is a custom Jacoby butterfly cue with a Jacoby Black CF shaft. I absolutely love it. ❤️
Does this work with cross banks?
Great question! Yes, the same process works for cross banks. I will be posting a second banking video where I will discuss cross banks, long banks, and how to compensate for speed and english. So stay tuned....
Hej från Sverige.
You dont have the tip of the que at the same lenght from the wall all the time when aiming?
The aim goes towards the Wall right?
Hope you understand 😊
Tack...
I am not sure if I understand what you are referencing but I will attempt to answer your question. When I put the tip of my pool cue next to the rail before I shift the back of my pool cue to the half way point, the tip of my pool cue is always at the same spot. Right next to the rail. When I shift my pool cue up table, I do move the tip of my pool cue sometimes because the aiming point can be where the cue tip is placed or where it is pointing. When I shift my pool cue the placement of the tip in relation to the rail is not important as long as I shift the correct angle. Did I answer your question? I will be doing a part 2 of this video in the next couple of weeks. If there is still confusion, the second video may help.
How do you know where to put the butt of your cue?
On a bank shot, the butt of the cue is moved until the pool cue splits the distance between the object ball and the called pocket.
This is the exact question that I had. The video makes so much more sense now when you make that adjustment with regards to the bank and the butt.
