Why You Miss Easy Shots | Snooker Pre Shot Routine

[@Groucherino]

Guilty as charged! As always your videos make me think more the next time I play, very, very helpful thanks

[@lg2525]

Thank you Barton another great video, for me NOT doing this in every shot im a classic example of missing easy shots all the time or i could pot it but NOT get position. Ill try and be more conscious of doing the same routine for every shot.

[@sheikebrahimsheikismail]

Fantabulous audio-video Snooker coaching, as usual ❤❤❤

[@taff6987]

Best online coach by far!!!!

[@asadhussain5267]

Great detailed video Barton snooker. It's not as easy as it looks. Best channel for snooker coaching

[@BartonSnooker]

@@asadhussain5267 thanks as always for your support. It really means a lot to me 🙂

[@russtrombone]

Exactly what you nailed in my recent lesson with you Steve 🤩. Still working on it but definitely seeing improvement and much bigger gaps between misses 👍

[@barrycochrane1883]

superb coaching tips. Found a huge amount from Barton Snooker really helpful and added to my "average" game.

[@BartonSnooker]

@@barrycochrane1883 cheers! Great to help!

[@LIVERNIL723]

This is a must for your locker and essentially, in any walk of life playing the game. The essense of this is never to take any shot for granted. The Professionals are otherwise consistent and successful for this very reason.

[@ryanstockley9495]

For me it’s lack of concentration and lack of proper/regular technique

[@BartonSnooker]

@@ryanstockley9495 yes! The technique is very important.

[@TheLordJaza]

Amazing Barton, thank you.

[@Delphiwizard]

These are errors that happen very commonly, well explained.

[@exile4090]

Im so full of ADHD , so i find building a routine very difficult. As i lose focus far to easy. First 30 minutes im fine, then cue action, stance being patience on my shot completely goes out the window 😂. But i absolutely love to play as i find it therapeutic. And i do find your videos very helping as ive improved alot in those departments. And now i just take a 15 minute break every now and then to reset so im not playing when the bad habits start to come in .

[@BartonSnooker]

@@exile4090 hi. I too feel very ADHD. I have been since a kid. I really had to learn to take my time and not rush. Taking breaks is a great idea. Keep up the practice.

[@AlakChanda-q6i]

Hiya Barton,my mate George got some lessons off you the other day,I asked him to invite you to our social club for a few pints and few frames,come down,I’m known as the cyclone,it’ll be a laff…lots of banter lol

[@budgiefish]

Ooooo nice new cloth 😀

[@chadcollins6797]

Great video!! Any plans on appearing on Stephen Hendry's channel in the future? :D

[@stevethomas8126]

I'd like to see that

[@dejangatarevic3819]

Great video as usual! Greetings from Serbia. I would love to hear more about cue maintenance from you? How do you keep your cue smooth whole time, because it often happens it gets squeeky.

[@tarcisiocoach9667]

Excellent vídeo

[@kyotosal]

I wish you could talk more about the actual angle and where you hit the red ball. Thank you.

[@shashiabraham6800]

He's got plenty of tutorials in his channel exactly for that. Check it out.

[@BettyNewbag]

Steve, I find myself missing shots more when I have to play them slowly. I feel like there’s more time for things to go wrong on my backswing and follow through compared to ones I can punch in. Any advice? Keep up the great work by the way and thank you for the content!! 🙌🏼

[@cowcowcow5627]

One of the best teacher online

[@blahtoausername]

Steve you need to pick on one of students or amateur friends and record them playing so you can point out and highlight what needs to be improved.

[@WanderFeetChronicles]

I’ll volunteer. Pick me up 😂 I’m averaging a break of about 9-12. 😂

[@susanstuart2056]

Would like to know what tip you use and what you would recommend . A video of the latest tips I would enjoy Thanks

[@mehranaslam375]

As always sir ❤

[@BartonSnooker]

@@mehranaslam375 thank you 😀

[@mzzzzz2179]

This is so me, I could be on a break of 45 or 50 and miss the easiest of shots that could take me to a break of 70-80.

[@WHAT-gm1xm]

Can you make a video on how to play safe and not pot white ball

[@scottjones3169]

excellent

[@hamidgholamiii]

Tnx

[@Futu_Momo]

Teacher Steve, a fan from Hong Kong. I would like to know, when getting down to a shot, what should our eyes looking at? The white or the object ball? Is there an answer or just up to players' own preference? 🤔

[@BartonSnooker]

@@Futu_Momo doesn't matter as long as you have done a lot of aiming checks 👍

[@Futu_Momo]

@@BartonSnooker Thanks for answering 😀

[@BartonSnooker]

@@Futu_Momo no problem! Thanks a lot for watching 🙂

[@musa4761]

Mr Barton, Could you please help me in figure out why this happens that one day I play and pott the even hard very neatly and the other day I pott very basic shots, I feel like I'm a noob.

[@camielphillips9129]

It would be nice to indicate where you hit the white ball,stun it or...

[@fatroberto3012]

Practice is the key. It's no good trying to perfect routines when you are playing doubles with your mates and only having one shot every three or four minutes!

[@BartonSnooker]

@@fatroberto3012 of course

[@AspiringTrader]

I'm somehow not so confident in the middle pocket when the pocket is not in the sight..

[@NoName-eo2mv]

Obviously to improve and take it super seriously you have to do this, but if I’m playing in club sometimes it’s more fun just to play naturally and can’t be bothered to do the routine 😳

[@BartonSnooker]

@@NoName-eo2mv of course. If you just enjoy snooker like that, then just enjoy playing.

[@bashirahmed7280]

For me , the reason is my cheap cue and tip 😂

[@neilwatts1666]

Thanks

[@BartonSnooker]

@@neilwatts1666 thank you so much Neil 👍👍 I really appreciate your support

[@mr2nut123]

Stop missing easy shots, just play pool instead. 😜

[@BartonSnooker]

@@mr2nut123 that's one way 😁

[@margarita8442]

can woman play dis game ?

[@sherKhan-qq7cy]

Of course lol

[@HappyWanderer140]

No

[@WanderFeetChronicles]

But you’re not a woman. Bot

[@shanedavies16]

No because women lack critical thinking.
