First Practice Session

[Meeko]

Going for my first practice session tommorow . Need a routine.. any ideas?

[dannyd0g]

theres dozens though i'll just name a few common ones :
black on spot - just keep potting it and getting position on it again and again
all colours on spots
line up
all colours on spots, scatter the reds in nice pottable positions
play a proper frame against yourself

[gallen-147]

there exactly the ones i do

spend about 30 mins on each thing so thats like 3 hours and also go down the spots too see if ur cueing is there...

cheers

Good routines there. Try to avoid the practice routine I've adopted.

1.) Get on the table prepared for several hours of potting.

2.) After an hour or so wonder what everyone is laughing and joking about in the pool room upstairs.

3.) Have a quick break by going to the bar in the pool room and getting a pint.

4.) While there notice friends who are drinking and generally having a great time.

5.) Return to the Snooker room to put away my cue and return the balls.

6.) Return to the pool room to drink heavily, play pool, gamble, go on a pub crawl and lots of other things I really shouldn't be doing.


So what should have been a cost-free Saturday afternoon playing Snooker turns in to a hours practice, an empty wallet and a very hazy Sunday.
