After having the Tuca for about a week I thought I would give a brief review.
When I first got the Tuca I didnt know what to think... not much for your money (paid £20 however they have been reduced to £15 and I did recieve a £5 refund which was a suprise and not expected at all).
I thought I would probably get bored quite quickly; after all "its just hitting a whole".
Played for 45minutes with the original cards, holes seemed too big, cued straight through every time and im know brilliant player. I then changed to the "pro cards" dont let the name fool you these cards are spot on for anyone looking to improve.
I have sinced used this regularly, clipped the edge a few times which is what i needed as i then knew i had a challange. I now mentally visualise the line up, playing every shot with top spin, centre ball or backspin imagining how the break would go... If I clip the card on the way through then i count it as a miss.
This has not only improved my cueing, consistantly hitting centre ball but more importantly it has improved my focus and temper. I figure if I can focus on putting my tip through a hole (behave you pervs) then i can focus more on those easy shots when i often lose concentration. I also find this is helping me control my temper; hitting the card and getting that feeling of anger, but learning to settle down and start again.
I managed only my second ever century on line ups yesterday, my first since stopping for 5 years due to uni and then work. Yes this is easy for many of you guys but it shows improvement in my game.
£15 seems like a lot for what it is, but how much would you pay for that little extra confidence and a more consistent centre ball contact?
Give it a go I doubt you will regret it.
