New Technique, Improved My Game!

I was joking. Not very helpful so I apologise.

But if your brow is getting in the way of viewing the clear aspect of the shot then maybe they could do with a trim?

I think folk are getting this completely wrong, in no way are my eyebrows getting in the way, but just for some reason it gives me better vision of the object ball if i raise my eyebrows, basically all i am doing is lifting my skin up above my eyes which for some reason gives me a whole better view/vision of the object ball. I have seen Mark Allen do this so i don't think it is just me, for some reason when i am down on the cue i don't see much of the object ball, but when i do this, i can see it much better and gives me a better view to pot it, that is all really, it seemed to help, so i will keep up with it for now, i might try not doing it and see if my pots get worse, and then do it again and see if they improve again.

What I don't understand is why you would want to introduce another item in your technique which you would have to conciously control so it's just one more thing to be coordinated. Wouldn't it be much better just to tilt your head up a bit so you can see the object ball clearly with no need to raise the eyebrows?

I think what's happening to you is when you concentrate on moving the eyebrows this is allowing the rest of your technique to be unconcious and thus more natural or in other words you are giving your first (concious) brain something to do so the second (unconcious) brain handles the delivery of the cue naturally
