Your my go to resource for instruction , Dr Dave... Many thanks.
I’m glad to hear it. You’re welcome.
Awesome! Well explained and I can take this to my next practice session
I’m glad you liked it, and I hope it helps!
Thanks for all your videos!! I’ve practiced all your videos for about a couple months now and have jumped from a 3 to a 4 shooting as a 5. Keep them going! Thank you again
I'm glad to hear it. Keep it up. I plan to continue to create videos for a long time to come.
Happy to like your videos, thank you for the time and effort you put into your teaching materials. 🙏
I'm glad to hear it. I love every minute of it, and the work gives me excellent practice. You're welcome.
Thanks Doc you are so good at explaining hard to explain concepts. Thank you for being so thorough. Love your videos!
You’re welcome, and thank you!
Outstanding Dr. Dave! This is so helpful in Points. Thank you!
Be well,
Al-Fu
You’re welcome. I’m glad you think it is helpful.
This is exciting. I gave up on diamond system because of the inconsisistancy. This may have eplained why.
There are many effects one must be aware of to be effective with kick and bank shot aiming systems:
billiards.colostate.edu/faq/bank-kick/effects/
The table industry needs to collaborate and create standards. The cushions should be the exact same cut and other characteristics which measure how balls bounce off of them. Need physicists and scientists like you to guide how they measure.
It would be nice if pool table cloth, rails, cushion, and pockets were identical among all table manufacturers, but this really isn't practical given the history and current state of the industry. And maybe it is a good thing to be challenged by different table characteristics. Also, the pockets on home tables and in bars should probably not be as difficult as those on pro tournament tables. Also, we always need to be able to adjust to different playing conditions, because kick and bank angles changes with cloth condition (new and slick vs. old and dirty) and environmental conditions (heat and humidity).
Really enjoy all your videos and thank you for putting these out there for us to learn.
Would you be able to do one on long bank shots, short rail to corner pockets?
I'm glad you like my stuff. The systems work the same for long banks as they do for cross banks. I cover how to do it in this video:
ua-cam.com/video/f-_-i4meNtA/v-deo.html
and in other videos here:
billiards.colostate.edu/tutorial/kicks-and-banks/
I always jus parallel shift halfway to #cueball, keep my tip at that spot, then shift butt over Cue Ball. This gives the exact shooting track line.
Same thing as you are saying, I just find it easier than doing the 2-1 shift. Same result though.
That works perfectly only if the CB is in the middle of the table (the same distance from both rails), but it is certainly much better than a pure parallel shift.
2 questions:
1) do you ain the center of the cue ball (not the leading edge) through the rail into the diamond?
2) you said hit on the vertical center but low misses short and high on the cue ball misses long. However in the picture you marked high-center as the hitting spot 🤷
1) Yes. You aim the center of the CB directly at the diamond.
2) The 2-to-1 system requires a rolling CB, hence the above-center hit (on the vertical centerline, with no sidespin).
All good. To note, when you go for the EXACT hit, this will often result in a scratch. Even when you didn't scratch, the resulting leave is very poor being inside the pocket. The "near miss" is the better shot, wouldn't you say?
Agreed. I showed targeting the center of the ball in the video to demonstrate the accuracy of the system. In game situations, it is better to target off-center a little. For examples, see the previous video:
ua-cam.com/video/rcWccgPnoso/v-deo.html
Exactly that's my point. This system isn't accurate at least you know which line is the cue ball in, for instance in the minute 4:47 . you know the exact kick rail cus you are expert player. For my as a intermediate player in the minute 4:47 . The cue ball could be on the line 5.5 to 3.5 . I hope you understand my concern.
@@OfficialTrailer-cc2gr It is easy to find line closest to the CB. Just put your cue along each of the lines that are near the CB and pick the one that is closest. With the CB in this position, if you put your cue over the 5-to-2.5 line, the 6-to-3 line, and the 7-to-3.5 lines, it will be obvious that the CB is closest to the 6-to-3 line. Again, check out the videos and other stuff here if you want more info or if you want to see more examples:

I'm wondering which of your videos refers to "stiffening" a shot. I realize there are conditions where reverse must be used rather than running English.

I have another question. Is 2 Foul Rollout a rule you ever played? Bevor texasexpress we played like when you scratch on a 9ball break the balls who went in the pocket were Set up again and you had ball in kitchen. But I dont get the Rollout. What does that mean?
I never played under those rules. If by "rollout," you mean the "push out" shot, see the info and video at the bottom of the page here:
billiards.colostate.edu/faq/strategy/9-ball/
@@DrDaveBilliards no not push out. I saw a old Video were they talked about 1 foul or two foul Rollout and how texasexpress Ruinen the game. Go to cj riley
I guess it doesn't really matter much now (except for those interested in rule history) since this rule was in the past.
Hey man I see you still shoot with the revo… didn’t you like the shaft whyte for playing? Even if you feel it’s nice shaft but fact that you still using revo means for your feeling it’s better than whyte right
I have used the Revo for years, and I have no plans to change. The Whyte Carbon has more CB deflection than I prefer. See:
ua-cam.com/video/cblx96wgJuA/v-deo.html
@@DrDaveBilliards thanks for the response. Have you tried the go custom shaft 12.4? If so how would you compare it with revo
I have not. All the CF shafts I have tested can be found here:
billiards.colostate.edu/faq/cue/carbon/
Once I find something I like, I don't like to change (unless there are compelling reasons to do so).
Looks like I somehow got unsubscribed from your channel. I've heard of people mentioning that happens on their channels, so hope you didn't lose a lot of people. It looks like it happened about a month ago between the "Top 20 Draw Shots..." and "Force Follow" videos (based on my view history).
Thanks for letting me know. I’ll look into it. Welcome back!

That was too,easy. I think people are tired of all my bank and kick stuff lately. I should probably move on to different topics.
@@DrDaveBilliards I'd be happy to see any content! But yeah, probably it's best to mix in something else:)
@@DrDaveBilliards Can you make a video about adjusting to tight pockets? Also dig into the question: Is it beneficial to practice on tables with tighter pockets than you compete on? Perhaps with references to other sports (like weight wests for sprinting etc.)
@@PoolProblems Good idea; although, the message is pretty clear:
- focus more and be more accurate.
- use sidespin less and keep things simple.
- make sure you don’t hit the near point of the pocket and instead target the far facing.
Practicing on tight pockets is good for working on your focus and shotmaking. But, IMO, I think it is best to practice on the equipment that you play on most often in competition, so you can focus on your whole game, and not just shotmaking. FYI, I have info and videos dealing with related topics here:
billiards.colostate.edu/faq/pocket/
I think he thinks what he’s saying makes sense. But literally you can prove/disprove everything just like he did. He showed it playing short, but he just hit it a little harder.
Please post timestamps (MM:SS) for the shots you think were misleading so I can check them out.
1:35 & 1:55
Just count aloud after hitting the rail. I’m not disagreeing that the parallel shift doesn’t work, but I don’t believe that’s enough evidence to prove that and validate your other method.
Because I believe at the same speed as the other shot, you would’ve opened up the angle plenty enough to make the ball.
@@bntheyoutube I agree that my speeds were not consistent, but small changes in speed in the slow-speed range don’t make much difference. Regardless, the diagram illustrations clearly show why parallel shifting is inaccurate. It does not maintain the required 2-to-1 relationship.
Even a fraction of an inch still plays that ball. I figured it was a wasted effort. Those are very different speeds.

Second, but still very fast! :)
