Helped needed with cue follow through

[j6uk]

I use the term fixed point because I feel it builds a picture it in the mind. This lad illustrates it well exactly 5min into this video clip, enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVjIZpY3Yug

Can you explain more: "Create a fixed point in/and shoot from the elbow"?

Thanks everyone. I have been sick a week now and havent even
played one frame so we will see how it goes when I am up and
about in a few more days.

Practise practise and practise for sure.

Wee bit more than an observation, I know its not easy to see on the screen but when the pros go through the white, making those 70+ breaks frame after frame, they are contacting that cue ball with their elbow (fixed point) and the 'so called grip' only comes into effect when shot is completed. A cliche but its true 'effortless, simply the cue is doing all the work' hence light grip, then cue feels heavier and potting center of the pockets.
No boredom or tiredness. Okay maybe feeling it the neck after 4hrs

Makes sense.. thanks .. !!! You are right cuz the elbow drop is after contacting the CB in all cases so yes fixed point elbow does the trick to consistent straight cue delivery...!!!
