Seeing Center Ball with Your Dominant Eye

[@Andrew-vt2wq]

Take a small tube, like an empty pencil tube and with both hands hold it horizontally in front of you reaching as far as you can. It should have a big enough inner diameter so you can see a small object or point on the wall through it. Fix the position of that object directly in the center of the tube. Slowly, with both eyes open, move your hands and the tube towards your face at every time keeping the focused point of the wall at the center of the tube. Keep it in the center all the way until it barely touches your face. It should pinpoint the exact location of your vision center on your face, then just vertically transplant that point to the bottom of your chin and you've found the perfect position with which the centerline of your cue should be aligned. This worked for me and it fixed my misses to the side of the pocket on long shots. Keep safe.

You are a blessing! I knew I wasnt going crazy- I kept hitting the cue ball where I was thinking was the center but everytime it would hit the rail then come back at a slight angle. I an gonna buy the pro english trainer and see if it will help me. Thank you soooo much!!

You're so welcome. Anything else I can do to help, don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Thank you for your comments. First, don't beat yourself up over being Left or Right eyed. The most important thing is to know that you know you can see true center on the cue ball. There is much to this and a simple comment can't cover it all. I'd hope you would get either a Pro English Trainer or consider one of my M1A1-XT (Extreme Trainer) practice cues. Look of, The M1A1-XT by The Drill Instructor. These are 2 of the best tools in the Billiard training arena.

The Drill Instructor so I adjust my site to compensate my dominant eye,spin/speed, deflection, I love this game! Rotation being my game of strength I've mastered it all except eye site compensation that mastered along with a low deflection cylinder tapered cue might be the answer.. Regards.

Zacher, I have found the use of standing a mirror across the table at the second diamond and then getting down on the cue ball for a shot. Without moving my head lift my eyes and see how my head may be tipped, tilted, turned, and if my D eye is over the shaft. You can also use large rubber bands to create crosshair lines for setting up once you find your proper position and height.

Great video! I have one dilemma about eye dominance, when I do this test described here (I'm right handed), put up my left hand and thumb and look through my right hand - I get that I'm left eye dominant. But when I do any other test like looking through the hole, created by the hands, in a distant object then closing one eye or the other to see what eye is dominant, or slowly moving the hand towards my face and see above what eye they end up - with both these tests I end up right eye dominant.

I had a real D.I. Never saw that kind of gut. But thanks for the advice.

[@bencayago731]

nice ive try the test you said for finding other way to find the find the dominant eye..i thought im a right eye dominant im a right handed player..when i do the test like point something with the index finger i found out my right eye cover the object..but in your example to find the dominant eye my left eye stay on the center of my hand to the left thumb..thats clear im left eye dominant..dont know what is the true of that

[@gmonkey808]

how do you know this is an aiming error rather than a cue delivery error?

[@munankendakwanzambi1553]

How much is it

[@TheDrillInstructor]

Hey Randy, please go to the website at thedrillinstructor.us and look at all the marketing team posts. There you'll see all the training products and their pricing. Thanks. Let me know what I can do to help.

[@tashbirthmark4221]

I am a right side shooter but left eye dominant, how does this affect your aim?

[@TheDrillInstructor]

Good point... good observation... being with you one-on-one would be the way to identify such an issue. Use of a mirror or line would help. The Winning Ball Aiming System has a way to determine if your cue is out of alignment. Don't laugh, but the object ball gives you the best answer; did it go where you intended it to go? Give the video a few views to be sure to catch many of the quick one word or single statement thoughts that could be missed the first time through. You're also welcome to call me to talk further. 407-927-1484. Thanks, Dominic The Drill Instructor
