This is one of the best videos ever for an extra reason or two. So I saw this video and then went to practice, showing the drill to a friend who was watching. I am not a strong player by any means compared to the A players out there, and if a game ends with me having a 30 break I am thrilled. I play in a few competitive leagues, and this video will help me for a few reasons. Also, I was shocked that I got the A,B,C question wrong when you hit the ball hard. So I thought the white would go more forward and miss the red by even more than with the "3" power. And here I am showing people how to play. eek.... Anyway, I practiced the drill for half an hour and I was shocked how easy it was. So then I did the clearance drill where I spot up blue pink and black and try to run out. Most of the people I play will not execute all 3 balls on first try. No way. I struggle with it because of course going blue to pink needs to land properly. So anyway , after watching this video and practicing it, and then trying my blue-pink-black clearance, it became so easy I started to get bored. My goal was 5 in a row from each side of the blue, which in fact I managed to do. In fact it got so easy I started doing it with my wrong hand. I will get to my point now. When a player plays a match and tries to land on the blue so as to go into the pack and hit the pink dead on, they send a message to the opponent that they are not afraid, but if you don't hit the pink (or pack) the way you are trying, then you can sewer or end up on the rail and have nothing. The other thing is that if you can stun that ball and have the white slide across to an exact perfect spot also tells the opponent he is beaten. I guess this message sending only works in my crowd of opponents when they are not really capable of putting the white where they want, but they pot fairly well. In fact my good buddy thinks Ronnie is not really that good because he only makes 2 foot shots. :) Anyway Steve, thanks for all the great videos and congrats on your thousandth century of subscribers.

All these years of playing, and thanks to your channel, i’ve just learnt that it’s the up and down on the cue ball that gets it through a gap, and NOT side…FINALLY! Thanks for the amazing videos, and in-depth analysis. Your coaching is second to none, and i’m well and truly hooked now. Cheers.

Thanks for this Steve, I am resting up at the moment been in hospital before Christmas. Bit annoying really after watching you and your videos. I had managed a 40 break ie 5 reds and 5 blacks in a practice routine. Can not put pressure on my chest at the moment so no leaning over a table. Keep up the good video's this one is brilliant, well done reaching so many subscribers too. Chris

Hi Mr. Bartoon, I have been watching your videos and sincerely they've all contributed to my improvement in snooker lately. Am not that good at it but with practice and the help of your videos I now plays better than I used to. Surely I look forward to becoming a snooker coach like you. Thanks for all your videos and please don't cease to make more videos cos they're all interesting and so helpful in becoming a a better snooker player. And I will be more grateful if you can tag me in any of your newest videos. Am one of your big fam you know. Secondly I don't have a good cue and will appreciate if you can tip me one of your old cues you don't really make use of. I struggle here to get a good cue but can't afford to get any good cue as they are all expensive and still not of good quality cues. Thanks

All of sending cue - top spin, stun or screw shots - no matter the power is strong, middle or soft, do we need to close grip all the time? - I feel that when I close grip up for all sending cue, my cue is shaking. Thanks much in advance krub...

Very understandable once you see this video. Practice required to put it into play. Amazing to think that no side spin needed, thankfully. Cheers Steve.

@sis-297 11 ай бұрын

He plays every shot with a trace of helping side to make sure of the pot, you can see that clearly. Side however, doesn’t help or is used to move a cue ball in any direction off an object ball, side is used to change the cue ball direction off a cushion.

How about doing an analysis of the differences in playing feel, spin and side throw between an ash and a maple cue of the same specs? Possibly also the same experiments and down-the-line camera shots done with brass and titanium ferrules on otherwise identical cues. Nobody has really done this and I only hear loose opinions on it. I've only played with 1 maple cue in the past, but it was of different weight and dimensions etc to my ash, and the tip was different.

@patrickslattery642 11 ай бұрын

Great video! Do you or can someone let me know what length of cue I should be using? I’m 6ft and I have a 57 inch cue currently. Do you have a video on cue lengths? Cheers

You said that most of your aiming is done standing up, but obviously most good players get down and behind the ball. So my question is: Does it get easier, over time, by, instead of aiming standing up, just to aim from down & behind the cue ball instead, without aiming standing up, as the 2 views are very different? I started off by aiming standing up, but, I'm wondering, if, over time that it would be better to ignore the standing aim, & just practise from down & behind the ball instead? I'm all deferred gratification if just getting down behind the ball to take my shot works eventually without the need to get up and down to make sure that my aim standing up is the same from down and behind the ball. What is your opinion on this?

Hey! I have a question, hope you answer! I'm right handed and I have a challenge potting balls from right to left! I always over cut them, and I find it difficult to cue straight in such shots unlike straight and left to right shots! Any advice?

Hi Barton. Quick question. Do you have to add the white line that shows the cue ball path later when editing or is that done from some kind of program? Thanks for all that you do.

@BartonSnooker Ай бұрын

@@BradEnquist it's added during the editing using the video editing software.

Great video, brilliantly explained and demonstrated. I thought controlling the ball was the stuff of rocket surgery, but no its simple, when you are told how. Well done and thanks. Now for the practice, as watching videos wont get me there. "If you could learn from looking and watching alone, every dog would be butcher'.
