Pro Skills - Simplify 8-Ball / 9-Ball Patterns!

[@richarddombakly413]

This video changed my game,this is when I really began to play,thanks Tor,I learned MORE from you than anyone else,truly.

[@Deep_Divers]

Tor, your method of teaching is excellent. As I have been progressing, I re-watch your videos and each time learn a bit more. Keep up the great work!

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks Deep Divers! I appreciate that

[@unclewreckum4977]

Really gr8 clip. Very informative. If a person really has a desire and a determination to become a better player all they would need to do is watch your videos. Not to much info at once for a struggling player to take in. Video speed not to fast. You always show the point of contact on the CB for every shot. No long intro, very nice and to the point. From my understanding you travel the country and help people with no charge or payments required. You really should be recognized on a larger platform for the things you do and have already done where the game of pocket billiards is concerned. Good stuff sir. 👏

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks for the kind words Uncle Wreckum! I do travel once a year for my 14 Days Experiment to train players. I've always enjoyed hanging out with pool players - it's like we're all part of the same family.

[@raymondphillips7107]

Very impressed with your knowledge and the way you explain without getting too technical 👍

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks Raymond!

[@adelalami7203]

I thought I know a lot until I witched this video... I knew there should be secrets making the game easier aside from shot making skill 😂 I can't thank you enough for sharing such amazing content. I hope one day I could get the 14-day course!

[@lapincheriatota]

Im a little happy that I contributed by buying your zero-x billiards to that beautiful diamond table, great material Tor, I love that you are uploading videos again

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks! Took some time away but I am back now

[@h98_kk76]

I really love your channel, its very helpful and improves a person to simplify his game rather than making his game more complex for him and end up in missing shots. When i learn something i visualize it in a way that rather this will help me in times of pressure or not and you pattern of playing which i learned today is completely achievable even if a person is under pressure. Thanks alot, keep the good work up 👌👌👍

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks Hussain! I appreciate that.That's a great tip for playing under pressure

[@LunaSee]

Thank you for this tip! I am already working with it on my table and I know this will help my speed controls issues. This is a huge piece. Dani

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Glad you like it! Great shot to know

[@13sephadex]

Nice shot there @13:24 Also the commentators had no clue...it's a deluxe version of the shot since he had to also make sure to get enough top-spin curve to pass the 7 ball

[@snowmoon83]

Super happy that you bought a diamond table. It will make it easier to practice your drills since I have the same one.

[@mehranzare-bidoky1541]

Awesome instructions. Grear examples and drills. Bunch of thanks

[@christopherjessngo629]

Its been a while since the last one i thought your out for good As always your way of playing simplifies everything just like you say your vids are the BEST AROUND.

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks Christopher, I appreciate that!

[@unclequack5445]

Tor Lowry never misses a shot , the best teacher ive ever seen.

[@dpbuc32]

Thank you! Tor you have the best pool instruction vids

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks Dpbuc32!

[@TheRealistFan]

This video is extremely informative.As an amateur shooter who hates to lose,I'm always looking to improve my game.If I could make 1 suggestion for future videos it would be images of point of contact on the cue ball.I watch a lot of pool videos and this is absolutely top 3 and the ones in front of it both show point of contact on the cue.Just a suggestion.

[@corysiler487]

So you say you have to develop a feel for the angle. I was told that using "max high" you can use the opposite side of the object ball to calculate the angle out after contact with the object ball. Do you have any sort of baseline for this shot or are you simply shooting the shots enough times to recognize the angles you need to get where you need to go?

[@randmthght]

Thank you. Using a rolling stun or Draw shot in such a way is really eye-opening

[@markarney6622]

I think this guys videos are awesome

[@okkrom]

So glad you are back! I wish you would do a Canadian 14 days!

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks Elias!

[@donfortin1177]

im a dual citizen. teach me and i can take care of canada!

[@SpaceboyBilliards]

I like to just play creatively and go for more complex patterns because I see a pool table as a canvas rather than an equation, but I also know this will help me when there's money on the line.

[@Crazywaffle5150]

This is the video I needed thanks.

[@MrKlaus314]

Wow! This is an excellent training plan.

[@musiconlyplease98]

Really nice advice.. let the ball roll off rail on line to Target.!!

[@VeritasForYou]

good video I am advanced player and I liked it

[@westonallen122]

I see that exact shot shaft and preditor chalk. I like your style.

[@ChasingChinster]

Fantastic video and tips, Tor. That clip at 13:00, what match is this from? Following the ball to a target on the rail really does simplify the game.

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Hi, that's Tony Drago from an earlier Mosconi Cup match. I'm thinking it was the '06 or '07 match maybe.

[@lancefessler7906]

Noticing lot of flaws in my game, I was aware my mapping was poor but past two nights of watching these videos I'm finding out how badly. Although so shots are a preference, I do feel as if I get hung up more then I should because poor shot selection and mapping. Great videos

[@mikefixac]

Tor's da man. thanks Tor.

[@user-dw1rl7tx7h]

this is the first and most simple rule which my teacher told me.... if you have a choice, always choose a shot with a cue ball roll forward , it is always much easier to do accurate run out this way, than pull cue ball back

[@Zigarius1123]

Draw for show, roll for dough. -Dr Dave Billiards

[@MrWARGODS]

Tor will do another video elaborating in details of how to drive the cue ball to the rail

[@tmangan327]

Are you using the 30 degree rule when aiming?

[@MarcelElfers]

you are a great instructor, Tor. Thank you. How do I sign up for the 14 day challenge

[@skymassingill5580]

Great video

[@jasonrobinson2017]

Very cool video! Which rail numbering system are you using at the end of the video? Do you have a video about that? Thanks!

[@ZeroXBilliards]

It's a simple system where the corner pocket is 0 and each diamond is 10. So between the second and third diamond from the corner pocket would be 25. It's similar to a few of the Zero-X Kicking systems.

[@juanluis7056]

Me has ayudado mucho gracias!

[@joeguerra273]

Quick question The drill at 8:30 R u keeping the cue ball at the same spot and still hitting at 20 and 30? Or r you adjusting the cue ball to hit which ever points you want?

[@Zigarius1123]

He's just adjusting the angle because the English stays the same

[@timrobinson2721]

Hey Tor can you plz tell me where I can get them white dots that you use for training purposes..thx! Great videos keep up the great work very helpful!!!

[@ZeroXBilliards]

Thanks Tim! They are called reinforcement labels. You can try Amazon or Walmart.

[@johmarydia2357]
