DR. CUE, one question:

I just realized that you release the stick(?) once you hit the cue ball, is it part of the technique? Thank you very much, and many thanks for the videos!

[cuedeane]

The release I have in my stroke once I hit the cue ball is part of my overall stroke motion, even though the cue ball has left the tip. It is simply an extension of my overall stroke, much like the follow through is in any sport. Some pros literally release the cue when they hit the cue ball and others do not. The key is to hit the cue ball with a fluent and rhythmic motion.

Hope this helps!

The release of my stick is part of my overall stroke motion. The overall key to your stroke is to release the cue in a fluent, rhythmic, and free flighted motion as in any sport follow through technique.

Enjoy!

i agree, but a better practice for speed control is using 2 balls, cue and another ball and try to drive the object ball to different diamonds from different cue ball spots. Im not putting this guy down, hes an amazing teacher... but to reduce everything to 3 speeds seems... well, debilitating

[lilhunni6969]

cool man!!

[justmeppl]

BTW you practice with one ball to get a better with aiming your shot.

[justmeppl]

Why do you shoot one ball to practice? Then when you shoot with the cue to the object ball, you wont be able to judge the speed that transfers energy to the object ball. The single ball practice wont justify the energy as it transfers to the object ball. So practice with the cue and the object ball.

He said stroke... heh heh

I just started practicing this because I thought that my speed was inconsistent so I started practicing this and I improved very little but was able to put just about 11 balls in out of 15 IN A ROW. Awesome. I'll practice this more often

[RSPM]

To illustrate the 3 speeds, wouldn't it be better to show them? Hit a ball to the end rail, then one 2 lengths, then one 3 lenghts?

[alwaysspam]

That's done in Lesson 12.
