  • I get the feeling that people always aim much lower than they actually hitting the draw shots. Am I imaginig it or is there an obvious reason for it if it's true?

  • @blindahl78 aiming much lower than the actual contact point during the practice strokes happens due to the elbow drop/timing of cue delivery on the final stroke. whether this a bad technique or not is debatable. many world class players deliver the cue in such a way. i have, since this video was taken, refined my stroke so that i aim at the exact point of contact on the cueball, even though i still drop my elbow somewhat, but only after the initial contact, unlike in this clip.

  • @dbbl - True

  • @whasmyname- more than likely it is your stoke. If you are not following through (the issue with 80% of players who can not shoot a draw shot) then you will have problems. Do not worry about the cue ball coming back to your cue.

  • draw shot is when the cue ball contacts the object ball with a reverse spin. This spin causes a backward motion as show in this clip. to apply the back-spin (screw back) you'll need to firstly loosen your grip a little bit so that you wont ''punch'' and get a stun or stop shot and then start working on getting it done by looking at your week areas. Think about the difference between stop and draw shots? the ''type'' of punch is different, the aiming cue ball spot is constant.

  • @blindahl78

    Yes , because if he hits it where he's aiming he'll surely ''miss cue''.

  • @13713 Good to hear that you improved your stroke. I really have to do so myself. It's still the number one flaw in my game. 

  • I still can't draw the ball, sometimes I blame the table that I usually play in, but I rarely draw, I don't know if it is because of my stroke or something.

    they all have a bad technique

    cruel but true
