Unless you're at an advanced level. This/these videos will 100% improve everyone's game. The fact that it's available for free is a real blessing. I just hope the people I play against in the league don't watch 🤣
Hello, I'm Snooker beginner from Germany. Even if I do not always understand each single word, your videos are the very best and they improve my playing to a higher level and encourage me to repeat and repeat your lessons. Greetings from Germany/France of a 63 old man 😂 in retirement.
Been playing on & off over 35 years and though this was a great explanation of the fundamentals it's cue itis that's plagued me most of the time, very much appreciated for this all the same.
Thanks for that Steve. I know all that stuff but I think the truth is it's not engrained in my cue action (although I do try). I'll play a few shots and it's all good but then I just forget a pause and it goes wrong again.. I suppose it's about trying to focus Until you do it automatically and then you can forget it and just need to concentrate on the shot.. I'm blaming too many years of pub pool for my cue action being inconsistent. We'll see what you say when I come for my lesson at the end of the month. Can't wait mate!! 😅 👍
Hey Barton, I've been struggling with a persistent issue for years. I've determined that my dominant eye is my right eye. However, when I aim with my right eye, my cue action becomes inconsistent, often resulting in shots going off-line. Surprisingly, when I use my left eye to aim, my cue action improves significantly, and I'm able to deliver the cue straight. The downside is that using my left eye sometimes makes it challenging to accurately judge the pocket angles in certain positions. I'm curious about your advice on how to best approach this situation.
But how about Alex Higgins Steve? I have all this in my head but sometimes I go to the club and smear into it with as much relax in my head and 0 technique and its barmy how well I do?? Is it true that inspiration is what I need. Sometimes my head is so full of technique I feel strangled. But I still do believe that technique is the way forward...
@@sj460162 it's depends what you're judging success on. You'll obviously FEEL more comfortable just doing whatever you like, but does that actually objectively get you better results? Do you make lots of 50+ breaks with no thought, but then can no longer make 50+ when you think about technique? You have to practice things in stages like I do with my clients. Build good habits, and then it no longer requires any conscious thought to execute a good technique.
There are techniques like 1. Elbow Drop like Ronnie 2. High Elbow like Judd/Neil. Try each if 1st Doesn't work then try 2nd. There are 2 Types of Grip also 1. Time Grip -Judd/Neil 2. Pressure Grip - Ronnie. And just focus on object ball only rest will happen automatically.
hi steve, its haatib, i have been watching ur videos for quite a while now roughly 1 yesr snd i have a suggestion, steve my suggestion is that please upload videos that are at an advanced level, i have the highest break of 39 and my game just turns off at rabdom times, meaning that ik my game is better but sometimes i just miss pots by an absolute mile, so what i mean to say that upload more advanced videos pls thank u😊

I am telling you now Steve there are coaches and coaches,you are without second too none.Very thorough.
These videos always make my day, always happy to see my coach again.
Beautiful video and we do appreciate you putting the cue ball as reference to make more understandable.
Great vid and the edits to add all the extra visuals are great. Hope they don’t take too long!!

Steve, incorporated the front pause to my action, much more stability in delivery.. thank you !!
i played snooker over 20 years now and i STILL benefit from these simple (?) but SOLID tips
Great video, as always. Practice is the key to making the four steps a natural routine on every shot.
My favorite coach watching from Zimbabwe Africa

Why every time I make a break and when the more I pot its getting much pressure and my whole body is shaking, what should I do ?
Steve I see most players with there chin on the cue and a couple with there chin to the left or right of the cue does it make a difference

Barton, a question? What is the average limit in cm for a long BackSwing?
please answer this question what causes that i lose my form of grip when i want to back swing my cue?
sir which cue is better....wood..mapple..or ash...please suggest me
if it a long or short back swing, do i still hold the cue in the same place?
How i keep ceu on line advise me teach

@@BartonSnooker I get that Steve. And I have to admit...Ive only ever made a 50 plus break when Im really focused and paying attention to my action.
what should we do when the delivery is not straight .what is the problem that i can't strike where i want?
Your eyes are the issue here, just focus on object ball and your other things like standing and griping let it naturally not manually
There are techniques like 1. Elbow Drop like Ronnie 2. High Elbow like Judd/Neil. Try each if 1st Doesn't work then try 2nd. There are 2 Types of Grip also 1. Time Grip -Judd/Neil 2. Pressure Grip - Ronnie. And just focus on object ball only rest will happen automatically.
Your videos always help me to improve my game ! thank you so much for free coaching 🙏and salute !🫡
My most important plan for each shot: Don't snooker myself for the next ball on 😅
❤
So why can i pot that long blue 3 or 4 times in a row. Then miss the same shot 3 or 4 times. Why is that? 😢
Eyes matter - Focus on the object ball only it will happen..
hi steve, its haatib, i have been watching ur videos for quite a while now roughly 1 yesr snd i have a suggestion, steve my suggestion is that please upload videos that are at an advanced level, i have the highest break of 39 and my game just turns off at rabdom times, meaning that ik my game is better but sometimes i just miss pots by an absolute mile, so what i mean to say that upload more advanced videos pls thank u😊
