APA Dr. Cue Instruction - Dr. Cue Pool Lesson 9: Cue Ball Control...Drawing the Cue Ball

[dukemakaveli]

dr.cue , u r better than dr.phill for me .

[Mephistoau]

:S I'm not sure how to strike the ball differently between playing a draw shot and a stop shot - all that's mentioned really is where on the ball you are striking, and it seems both are done low on the cue ball :S

[ilusq]

@Mephistoau the draw is much lower. the stop is just barely below dead center.

dr cue is a beast...he doesnt even reply to questions & comments, hahaaaa lol

[naveenthethump]

@nae8man87 lol

[Z4ty10]

But sometimes I strike the cue ball low, and I maintain the cue stick almost horizontal, yet the cue ball jumps. Could you tell me why and how to avoid it?? Thanks!

[zeratulkun]

te la rifaste con la del trenecito =)

[86shortbox]

its all about follow thru!!! and he didnt even mention that...

[aznelf13]

i think everyshot needs a followthru

[vincentwu]

@aznelf13 not always. a poke stroke can create different cue ball effects as well

[onjai88]

you are god Dr. Cue.. thanks!

[jaysucks312]

haha! learned this in physics class :)

honestly, your videos are great for beginner pool players..but please change the music ._." its stuck in my head..

[herbiethebarber]

Ok this one sucked, noting about follow thru, staying down, not JABBING! etc. I love you Dr. Cue, but please be more specific!

[Rayd8807]

@herbiethebarber He said go through the cue ball, aka following thru, and if you are going through the ball that cannot be accomplished by jabbing. He covers staying down in another tutorial. You should always stay down but I don't think it is necessary for him to cover that in every video he does.

[faceplant09]

you learn real much :)

[Mcrxwolf]

or you could buy one of tose special gloves(those with three finger...)

[bringinglove81]

what are those for exactly?

[Megan61302]

Less friction on the stick, easier slide, more graceful shot.

[wags407]

I'm gonna start trying the closed bridge again. I always had sticking problems before.

[RSPM]

If you're having problems with the cue stick, sticking to your hands, try washing and drying them, (your hands not the cue), really well, sounds silly but, it helps. Don't use powder!! It only gums up your shaft and makes a mess of the table. If all else fails, (and there's not a sink in sight), wrap a dollar bill, loosely around the shaft, to act as a barrier between your sweaty hands and the shaft.

[ProphecyKJC]

i primarily use the v-bridge for every shot but i think i will try to utilize the closed bridge a little more.

[videoaccess001]

I will be shooting draw shots this way now. Using the closed bridge.

You are a great teacher.
