Every shot he line up, cue tip exceptionally low, then at the moment of strike he would hit the cue ball exactly where he wanted. Not exactly textbook Id suggest but it obviously works well for him
    I think Jimmy White has always played like that.
    This is how you play darts ,MVG two nines in the same match!

      I also do this smeeagain, I always keep the cue tip incredibly low. and then during cueing strkg The CB in the center. I keep the cue tip below the strkg point. Or with a stm shot, the cue tip in the center and then with strkg, highest point of CB. This helps me cueing exactly in a horizontal line with the table . I do'nt know if that is the right way? (Good question for Terry). but it works for me.!!!!!!!!!!'

        Was this distance for all shots, or just long pots?

              This is how Jimmy finds the middle of the cue ball at address, where it touches the bed of the table.
