Billiards - Potting Method
Language: English (change)
Hi,
Have you ever heard the old saying, the trick Billiards is that there is no trick? Well, I think that might be incorrect.
There is a definite reason why we spend hours and hours playing, some making the next level; some not. This happens even with the same practice time and a very good technique between the two comparisons above. Why? Well my theory is that there are somethings never noticed by the one that doesn't make it. In the back of the mind of the person that succeeds they know by feel what it is but cannot put it into words. My theory employs a method that the top feel players use; not actually sighting a point on the object ball. It removes any optical illusions that are caused by contacting two spherical shapes. It also works to the millimetre for any angle between 0 and 90. One method, every shot. No visualisation of contact points, imaginary balls or anything else that requires abstract estimation.
Of course, I can prove everything I state here mathematically. (and not that Internet, really doesn't help anything kinda maths that gets around on here)
Hours and hours of practice increases your chances of noticing what is happening but does not guarantee it. My method guarantees that, not only will you know the required techniques on a subconscious (feel) level but also on a conscious level where you are free to diagnose your shot before you even take it. It is a single method where actually sighting a particular place to strike the object ball is more a hindrance rather than a help. You will quickly feel what you are doing subconsciously because consciously you will know what you are trying to do. Every shot will be a step towards a correct aim without guessing.
This is not a rip off kinda thing. I will now let you know about the limited testing it has had. I am looking for people around the 15/20 - 30/45 Break area's to test it with (if you're interested, lower or higher is fine). The people who have a sound technique and for the most part can deliver the cue ball straight but have not yet made the leap into higher scores.
The method has only been tested on a very small population of people (6 inclusive of myself) but we have seen a jump in performance (2 ball wonders into 7 to 10 ballers) in the last 6 weeks. The other people in this test group are just a couple of games a day people. I might play 2 or 3 hours a day after work. The method has taken me out of a pretty bad form slump into an average of, as the names says, ~90% and breaks into 50s and 60s. This is not a wonder, read it and you can do it kinda thing. You will have to still practice it. The difference though is you have one method that works for any shot and one so simple it makes visualising ghost ball seem like trying to visualise London Bridge next to the object ball.
Now I know, someone who is scoring 50 breaks is hardly an expert but, and I will be honest, it was something I blindly stumbled across.
I am looking for around 50 -100 people to test with. The cost will be $4.95USD for anyone who decides to be brave and join the test group. This will include a 10 to 15 minute video explaining the technique. (yeah, its that simple) I'm only charging a nominal fee for the setup of a website and to allow download or stream of the video, so really, see it as being free. Though of course, if I get back, "Hey, this is what I needed!", the price will rise.
Just email, snooker.method@gmail.com if interested. Give me your email address and I will contact you when content is created and the site is up. No obligation, just seeing if anyone is up for trying something new.
Thanks.

maybe stephen hendry is interested, he's said to have missed easy pots recently.
