You may have a table paid for by dad, but you ain't that good. You ain't as good as three friends who've been pros and couldn't make it. You ain't a pro at all, so you ain't that good. That's the difference, I can tell I'm just average in the grand scheme of things, tons mean nowt compared to what's really good, what's very good, what's excellent and what's outright genius. Good is pro upwards btw.Last edited by barrywhite; 26 January 2016, 08:43 PM.

Driving the cue through is made easier with a good technique which is why players like Stephen Lee stand out for being able to get almost unbelievable reactions from the cue ball. It's not a case of just hitting the cue ball as hard as you can on the outer edges to get forward/backspin and this is why some people who don't play struggle to get the cue ball to screw back. For them to play with extreme spin to try to go the length of the table would be out the question and mostly because they are too scared to cue on the outerside of the cueball as they will probably miscue. I spent a long time working on my cueing so I could strike more confidently and get more control over the cue ball. The way you follow through your shot makes a big difference and it's important to cue straight. I sometimes cue along the baulk line with an imaginary cue ball and see if the cue moves left or right of the line when I follow through. It can help identify if a wobble is creeping in or my grip needs working on.

That's because if you whack the bottom of the ball with lots of force but don't go through it, as we see on a lot of pool tables but also with wood pushers in snooker, you see players almost stun the ball instead. It's not because they have hit the ball than with less force than Judd or not hit it in the right place, they just haven't delivered the force in the optimal way to impart spin. Every coach on the planet coaches players to hit through the ball. This is stop them pumping the ball; as kermit and his pool friends do.
