Wow, this video is richly packed with information. I'm probably gonna watch portions 30 times and it will (honestly) take me months to assimilate. I shoot pool 2 times a week with a dozen old timers who collectively have about 700 years of experience versus me: 6 years. I surprise them once in a while with what I have learned from you, Jasmin. Thank you from Oregon.
Seen a million pool videos, but this one addressed follow and roll in a way I’ve never seen done before. Definitely on my list of must-sees for other players. More unique vids like this, Jasmine. I like all your stuff, but this was top notch.
Hi From canada Just like to thank you for your tips and lessons I like the way you explain and if I don't understand it's simply that my game is not advanced enough to comprehend I try to get all you put online very helpful. thanks again and good luck to you and your brother in your 2024 tournaments
I'm right handed, and i use my right eye to look into camera or sighting the ball with one eye. But when i come into pool stance, my dominance eye is the left one :))))) it took me over a year starting pool to realize that
My biggest problem is having to adapt to a new or different table. It takes such a long time. All of the spins are different, the speed is different, and the rails are different. I would love to know a way how to warm up before a tournament to have a better feel for the table when you have only a few minutes to practice. What sort of shots to practice.
Jasmine, I'm a big fan and watch all of your videos. You're explanations and demonstrations are always top notch, but this particular videos was probably one of the best. Between showing very good camera angles that demonstrated how much the follow bends the path of the cue ball to how much an incremental adjustment of your tips position can change the path as well. I KNOW these things myself and have played the game for a long time, but seeing it demonstrated so nicely really makes an impact. Can watch your stroke and follow thru all day.
Never in my life did I ever think there could be such an amazing instructor for playing pool that was so extremely beautiful. Absolutely the perfect lady!
It's so refreshing to see someone actually talking about the art of pool. Never stop learning the possibilities and capabilities of your game. This video alone will help someone step up their game. I'm assuming a draw shot is coming soon.
Love your vids. ❤ One little comment on this one: When you were showing kicks, starting with a rolling cb, you said follow shortens it up. I believe this only because you hit it much harder. Follow actually opens the angle (slightly) on kicks. As you showed backspin shortens it up even more, and that is true, but that actually means the follow opens it up. Canter ball would be in middle, between the two, at firm pace. A softer kick, played with max high action, would help to open the angle, as long as the cb still had some rotation after contacting the rail. Of course sidespin adds a whole different element to kicks, but we are just talking about the vertical axis. 😁
I think you forgot a very important point: the distance from the cue ball to the object ball. This can dramatically change the required elevation on the cue ball in order to get the same result. Otherwise, an excellent video.
Maximum follow is actually just a rolling cue ball for any given cue ball speed. You can't physically make the cue ball spin faster than it is moving forward to any significant degree until it hits an object ball. The difference between a "force follow" and a normal follow is either a) the normal follow has not yet achieved natural roll or b) the force follow was hit harder.
When i opend this video i didnt exepect is gonna be that helpful.. i was playing for long time and yet.. this is the first time i know why i was putting my self in bad postion because the follow and roll.. tahnks alot jasmin
