I hope this is not a stupid question I am right handed right eye dominant and use the square on stance when practicing long pots to the right and left hand top pockets red around the blue spot and cue ball at varying distance from the cue ball I find my potting success is always greater into the left hand top pocket any input would be most helpful. I have managed 10/10 in the top left but never managed more than 4/10 to the right.

Yeah, the right side of the table, don't know why. I just like the pockets on that side. Like you mate, I'm R handed, R eye dominant and have a square stance. I've started practising potting into the L side table pockets, as suggested by someone on TSF to compensate.Harder than you think is a beautiful thing.

This could be down to where your feet are placed regarding which side of the table you are standing in relation to how close to the table you are.
You could be taking a different stance on one side of the table compared to the other which is affecting the placement of your cue on the line of aim.

Practice more on the right hand side .. till you get to a higher number .. You will notice that your overall game will improve .. After all, you want to clear the table in the least no of shots, so it's best to get perfect from every angle.....My blog on snooker and other cue ball games -
