Getting up

[danam1]

Does anyone have any tips on "getting up" off the shot?
I don't know if I'm lazy or just thick, but when I'm down on some shots I get to my rear pause and think to myself I'm not on this right but I still take the shot anyway and hey presto, I miss!!
I assume it's just practice but I was wondering if anyone else has another idea to force me to get up and realign myself?

This is the one thing that I can't coach myself out of doing and it is so frustrating.

Stand up. Walk a few paces from the table, pause, and then restart your preshot routine. Do that every time until it becomes habbit.

this sounds like a classic, few hours a week with his mate, habit. so if you can remember, next time this happens jump up, point to you mate and say 'its your round!!'

Very cool! I like this idea.

I definitely find myself completing a shot knowing it was not a good idea, as almost as if I am trying to prove myself wrong and thinking I'll reinvent my approach.

This is exactly what it is! Only trouble is he's too tight to buy a round

That's exactly what I think.

if it doesnt feel right, mentally tell urself u will miss if u dont correct urself properly. u wont feel that way playing your mates. unless you throw in a few quids on the game and you really want that beer or ur in a competition...trust me, stand up you will!
