Man, Bryan, you’re upping your game in these recent videos. I love how you give “real world” advice; stuff that actually comes up in a game, rather than just recommending to do certain drills. It makes it easier for me to learn because I don’t get as frustrated practicing this way. Thanks for all you do!

The quality and the feel are just second to none. My buddy I usually play with played a couple racks with it and by the end of the night was saying he might need to get himself one soon haha. Hoping to add the BK Rush and Air Rush in a month or so to complete the set and roll with that for many years. Thanks for all your advice!

The 5 must have pool shoots series is one of my go to videos, I watch at lease 2 before I head the pool hall...And maybe one of the mistakes everyone makes videos. My biggest take away today would be, "To always look at the shot first". I find myself forgetting that sometimes when everything is like running on autopilot.

I appreciate the humility you bring. As my parents taught me, there's a fine line between confidence and cockiness. You have to be confident to succeed, just don't let it go to your head. 👍 Happy holidays!

This is such an important shot and one I practice every time I get a chance. It can really make a big difference in your position play. Once you get the hang of it, especially the running english shot, it becomes fairly easy to get almost anywhere. The difficult part of this shot is the inside english as you mentioned. Yes, you make it look really easy, but if a guy/gal works on this shot for a few weeks they can become pretty proficient at it. I also practice versions of this shot with no running english, but instead use different levels of center on the cue ball. Learning those shots can also help you get to many places, just like running english, but you don't have to worry about deflection or spin induced throw. Real world videos like this are such a big help to many of us.

Absolutely Love It!!! Tremendous video B!!! This should serve loads to those who want to improve but it does require practice. And you are absolutely right - gotta make the shot from both sides! but with near the same result. We have a tendency of cutting better to one side than the other, it's comfort ... many times we'll hit the cue-ball differently, LEFT vs RIGHT - Bottom vs Top. Wishing you and yours (and all of community) the Bestest Christmas Ever --- Make memories my friends! Be Safe

Great video Bryan. Around the 4 minute mark of the video you said we had to develop a feel for the angle but you actually gave us that information 2 years ago with the intro to 2 rails kicks with the Diamond System. You instinctively have the tangent line go through diamond "5" on the short rail to hit the second diamond on the long rail. If you moved that cluster up 2 diamonds toward the side pocket then you want the tangent line to go through diamond 3 on the short rail with running english. Sorry if I confused everyone

Viking was my first stick ever my dad got us a 8ft Brunswick table and 2 vikings for Christmas when I was 14. I had bought nothing but viking ever since. They make gorgeous cues and at a great price. I recently decided to try a different cue. I got a j. Pchauer with carbon fiber shaft. I love it, the taper isn't as intense as a vikings taper. It's a great cue but I don't think it's any better than a viking cue. I love it though. I'm about to order my first meucci cue next week. They are really gorgeous cues and I am getting it with a carbon fiber shaft. I'll never go back to wooden shafts now. Carbon fiber shafts you don't even have to wear a glove or chalk your hands. It glides without the and literally almost zero deflection. Love carbon fiber shafts.

The thinner the action the faster the CB. This can get down to so thin the CB is barely effected too tho so you need to practice all the tangent lines. Personally I like center side ball without the top spin too..the CB will rocket around with side spin too

Ya us 9 ball players love that 45 degree cut going out of the corner shot. And it always feels more natural to use the spin that's opposite to what hand you are. Like you I'll spin the ball anyway I need to but I do like right hand English the best. I'm left handed btw. I think that mentality it's just easier to visualize because the ball is coming back across your vision zone. I've always said that us rotation players like more angle than 8 ball players. In fact I actually prefer more angle than the shots your showing because you don't have to work the cue much to move around the table. As I've gotten older I tend to just love to foat the cue ball to position. Even though I have a lot of cue power. Amping up all the time reduces the number of run outs you'll get. Plus taking thinner cuts means you don't have to use as much side spin. They just become speed control shots. Soft speed control shots. When I watch the top players in the world I've been seeing this trend more and more. Plus I tend to use parts of the pocket to more my cue ball. If I need to travel more I'll hit the thin side of the Pocket. If I need to kill the cue I'll hit the thick side of the pocket

What is your opinion on the Predator pool table?

Make the table in the video is an Ohlhausen, 9 foot with predator cloth. Predator responses my channel which is why you see their logo - that aside. I think their predator table is amazing. I’ve never seen one person ever say anything bad about it.

Hey I'm 75 years old and have been playing pool for 63 years and staying with all of the new technology. Hey I'm not anywhere as good as I was, maybe it's my age. Well guess what some of my game has come back I'm running tables again, and had a 50 ball run in 14.1. Went back to the basics, all of the way back. I put an 85 ¢ crushed Lepro tip on my Revo and Master chalk. Squirt and skids were only invented when we started using them G%!!#& layered tips and that funny $$$ chalk. Thanks Brian

That 50 ball run must have felt really good. 14.1 ís no joke. I'm 68 and I ran the rack once but when I'm shooting pool time has no meaning. I just lose myself in the game. I think you do,too.

Very good 👍🏿. David Shelton taught me this drill as a part of an impromptu free pool lesson (after he kicked my azz). A part of my warm up routine now.
