Hey guys, thought i'd post some pics of me working on my cue action. I've tired to brace my shoulder more and align my elbow straight. Here's a pic before:



and after:



is this right? im defo playing better now i've changed it, athough my shoulder aches!

The elbow looks more upright and vertical whereas in the original it looks like your elbow was slightly pulled inwards. It has to be comfortable though so keep that in mind. Also during the shot make sure the elbow does not move inward or outward which is often the case when people correct their elbow in address position.

i feel alot more comfortable to be honest. and i feel like everything is in one straight line, and the shoulder is locked so the elbow is acting as a pivot. i drive and drop my elbow on delivery though, but my elbow goes inwards towards my body on delivery. im going to see del hill soon to see what he says
