Funny thing is that whenever you think that the angle you've picked is too thick/thin, the adjustment you make (intentionally or sometimes unintentionally) will make the miss even worse. That's why it's so important to learn to line up shots correctly and fully commit to the angle you've chosen. If it doesn't feel right when you're down on the shot, just get up and line up the shot again.

Steve, your tips are fantastic, I have greatly improved from watching your videos, I am starting to make some consistent breaks I had two 60s b2b today and one was a clearance. I have been searching for more tips on improving my safety game as I have lost more frames than I should of in my local league this season due to coming to the table and not having a clue what to play in different scenarios, I'm pretty good a basic safety but when your down to the colours anyone can win and I've noticed on recent tournaments on t.v there's a lot of similar battles to pinch frames. Long pots to nothing worth going for if confident but if you miss its frame over?

Already knew all this, but hearing it again every once in a while is good, and I definitely need to drill some of it. Thx.

@hendry1471472 жыл бұрын
The best tip I’ve found out for myself only last week was that I wasn’t aiming at the white where I think I was hitting. That’s came down to when I used my white cueball that’s got lines and a dot to use as a coaching ball , I’m sure you know what I mean. But the best procedure is to get one of them and when you’re on the shot , make sure you’re wrist and grip is in a relaxed position when the tip of your cue is covering the mark on the special cueball. That’s will change you as a player. 76 is my highest break without trying to coach myself and I’ve made every other break up to 76 except 72,73 . But if you’re looking to improve you do need to study why you’re potting or what makes you pot that ball and try learn what you’re doing right. Snooker is a very tough game to master. Good luck all .

Had to smile about number 6 - Stephen Hendry just admitted to Steve Davis that he looks at the cue ball during delivery. I really liked to see that your grip on the cue on the backswing isn't as "open" as you see a lot of the pros - I just can't manage that full finger "unfurl". Also, on Tip 4, I picked that up from Kyren Wilson a few years ago. It was really noticeable on power shots that he started his delivery slowly and then drove through the ball. I feel that trying to power through from the beginning uses big muscles in your arm which don't have the fine control. If you start slowly, it gives the big muscles time to get up to speed (so to speak) in a straight line.

This is good stuff for American players who generally don`t play snooker. Same fundamentals apply. I enjoy snooker myself. It's a great game to improve your cueing skills because of the distances and tight pockets. In pool, snooker or 9-ball or whatever, stroke is king.
