The subtle version of the shot is easy and can be learned by anyone in weeks.
The more you want to throw the OB the harder the shot becomes, just like the difference between screwing the white 6 inches compared to 10 feet.
To be fair, it's not an easy thing to control. The likes of vmax mastering it is doubtful, and potting in snooker is difficult enough as it is.

I took the vids down.
gonna record them again but a bit clearer.
The tin of beans idea is good
I've said all along that I could be wrong... many times. I won't lose sleep if I am because it really is irrelevant knowledge in terms of your standard at snooker.
Talks a good game?
Anytime you're ready for a best of 19 biggie, we'll film that and let the footage do the talking.
I've played 4/5 people off the forum... who have you played?Last edited by pottr; 14 September 2017, 08:16 AM.

This stuff is good to learn for precise break building.

Shame you took down the video before I had a chance to see it pottr, but like Terry I don't believe in OB swerve unless it's picked up a lot of spin through compression into the cushion, seen that happen, the spin that is not the swerve, but if it spins then it also swerves.
BTW biggie I haven't been practising anything but getting down lower on the cue and keeping my head still, seems to be working, thanks Terry.
About time we saw biggie get his overhauled cue out, that's if it actually existsSpeak up, you've got to speak up against the madness, you've got speak your mind if you dare
but don't try to get yourself elected, for if you do you'll have to cut your hair

J6 & pottr,
You both did that ""3/4 red holding shot"" for the black on the green side.
Is it me, or did you both say differently. J said left hand side to hold his CB for his low black and pott said he was using right hand side to hold his CB for his low black.??.
Just curious dudes.JP Majestic
