Its too easy to pot balls in those ENORMOUS pockets lol... even if the balls hit the rail first.. they still go in... Better play snooker :)

[mihailofsx]

HAHA yeah, thats what happens when you transfer to snooker. I experienced the same thing.

[gofer123guy]

the ball never spins for me when i do enlish like i do backspin and i pretty much mastered backspin and i hit the side instead of the bottem but still the same trick does not make the ball spin at all i need help

[silkysmooth85]

try using a smoother stoke and make sure to follow through

[rhmsr63]

fessan and i have the same problem. hope you will give us the solution on this as soon as possible. more power forcefollow !

[rhmsr63]

i have the same trouble with fessfan. can u explain the techniques better. more power buddy !

[FESSFAN]

How do you do english yet keep the ball straight when you shoot it. I get trouble with it. It's killer.

[prashanthlv]

You are awesome!!!. I learnt a lot just by watching your pool. Keep up your excellent work

[geetarwanabe]

why is it when i do english ( or attempt ) it either goes straight on with little side sweep . or it goes flying off to the side? why is it like people can get it to swerve like massively? like curve round a ball if your snookered for instance? i can never do that, is it a slower speed but more english?

[boolooshtookoosh]

yr videos are quite addictive...i went through lots of of paradigm shifts..while learning from yr videos...grt job....few hv the passion to spread gained knowledge....

[Justin4145]

hey your really good at explaining and very good play i been watching your videos. im just wondering how old you are because i want to compare you to how i play for my age

[forcefollow]

I am 32 but i didn't start playing until i was 25.

[Justin4145]

oh ic i am only 15 and i can run out an 8 ball game-once in a while lol. i only go to the billiard hall once a week. how much was that table you bought for it looks really professional

[forcefollow]

Its an olhausen reno with 860 simonis. I paid around 2100 for it, but that included shipping, tax and installation. I would recommend a diamond, brunswick or olhausen. you can buy a good used one in good shape for half of what you can a new one.

[Randomblackmail]

and where exactly can I get that?

[Redayz]

These videos help a lot, thank you so much!

[youroeuro]

it would be easier to mark the spot where you should make contact with the object ball on stripes... that's about it

[jpmcmanusZoso]

is it just me or is it easier to sink strips than solids.... ? i can sink any ball but it Seems easier to sink strips :P

[hyena627]

hey forcefollow, thanks for this! i always thought english affected the cue ball after the carom, instead of after it hits the rail! this was very educational, and you are a great teacher. keep up the great work, man.

[Drusrockets]

I can't thank you enough for ur info some of this has really helped me to see where I need work especially about how the english doesn't affect the cue ball untill after it hits the rail.

[shawn479]

hey forcefollow, i always try to go practice and i struggle on my positioning. i use draw, left and rt english. there not good english but i struggle. and i watch ur videos. and what can i do to learn to control my cue better. like landing on a business card. im trying but im struggling

[forcefollow]

Other than working with a coach the only thing I can reccommend is practice practice practice. It takes years. Work on one drill until you master it. Don't try to take on too much stuff at once.

[shawn479]

i nevered looked at it from that pt., but once again thank u. and im going to practice practice practice until i overcome my struggles. the good thing that u told me was; that i was taking to much at once. my next practice is going to be on focusing on one thing till i master it. like u said

[forcefollow]

If an over and under refers to a camera angle. I don't have a tripod. its a thirty dollar webcam I have mounted on the wall.

[DiFontaine365]

Have you ever heard of overs and unders?

[forcefollow]

No. Due tell.

[DiFontaine365]

Have you seen "Stickmen" it's a New Zealand pool hustler film, quite good, but they were talking about unders and overs, as in spots and stripes, but I can't work out if the unders are the spots or stripes? Any ideas?

[n2mb7r]

obviously unders would be the spots - the lower numbered balls whereas overs are the stripes - the higher numbered balls. im thinking unders is referring to the balls that are 'under' or 'less' than the 8 ball which would be the spots, overs is the stripes.

[DiFontaine365]

Nice one buster you're so right!

[DeathByLight]

is that a predator cue ?

[forcefollow]

Yes. A not so sneaky pete.

[forcefollow]

In pool english is definatly transferred!!! Trust me... English is also transferred by throw (the subject of another video.)Read any book on pool and they will tell you the same thing. I don't really know if the same applies to snooker. If I had to guess I would say that it does if white weighs as much as the reds and colars.

[slug182]

a lot of people say that the side of the cue ball do not transfer to the object ball, because it´s not a perfect contact, wich would only be reached in vaccum...what you say about that;?

And also, do you know if this things like the throw, if they work for snooker also?

Tks for the video
