    And............you followed through on the shot over the hole, because you needed to!

    So all in all, you've failed to deliver what you promised.
    Over the hole? Lol. Where's your mighty up n down [ahem] 'screw' shot video again, MB? Perhaps we could see the whole shot next time?

    And I've seen phil run a ton plus on video, too. What was your highest break again? And do you have a ton on video?

    Finally, are you related to English! at all?

    • I know its only fractional but i was watching barry stark coaching and his interpretation of timing is the amount of time in connection with the white.

        Timing is , Intended place at the right time ( as J6 already mentioned it ) . Striking the CB at the right time ( as far as I know ). that's sumthing in ur mind. For example, if you are not focused, it can effect ur timing.
        the weight of the cue HAS nothing to do with your timing. You can time the shot well , No matter with what kind of cue u play , 20 OZ , 18 OZ Or 15 OZ .
        Of crs, the cue's spcs has to suits ur game ( But that's not the point here ).
        Weight of cue will affect your timing , only slightly, lighter cue accelerate faster but less weight to go through the ball, heavier cue will take longer to get to the same speed but will have more weight to affect the ball, so with the same length backswing and the same power it will be going slower at the contact point,you can of course time it well with any cue but they will be slightly different.
        Phillthepockets, is that a club in Canada?
        This is how you play darts ,MVG two nines in the same match!

            And now for the challenge and for your entertainment we have video of Kurmit the pool playing Canuck trying to screw a snooker ball.

            This is in a club, sorry the best I could muster without heated Star table and No10

            Great shots and also watched your century. You certainly know how to play the game. Looked as good as a Trump shot from what I can see. I think barrywhite nitpicking, I think he follows through when he Trumps!

            • Impressive Phil, I think i'd struggle to get to the blue spot on that shot!

                  Nice snooker related pun there Markz
                  I would be happy to make between pink and blue ,nearer pink I would say. Don't think I have ever tried it, can get back to baulk Cush from blue off the spot but that shots in a different league.
                  Screw back with only a six to eight inch follow through, not the 18 inches advised by some on here.
                  Just watched your century Phill, very nice ,and what a set up you have there, lucky man, does your son play as well?

                  • on some of the club cloths and balls it would be a struggle just to pot the ball and come back 12 inches lol

                    • At 2:05 and 2:34 is the real deal, not balls over big holes.

                        Phew, at least one member saw my pun lol. I've definitely not got that shot in my locker, I'd be lucky to get the ball to stop dead from that distance, I don't own the table so rather not risk any expensive mistakes.
