How To Be A Snooker Show Off 

Try going 10 years, and realising almost immediately that you can't actually see anymore!

Judd : Hold my cue Break from life : ok..now u use 7 iron as a que..

Surprisingly That was actually 1st time as well

Thanks 👍

At 2:31 i think what makes it go in easier is the natural top spin the red gets from rolling on the table and after the hit on the red along the cushion (quite thick hit) it does not simply leave the red at a 90 degree but arcs forward toward the pocket because of the topspin. I guess its what the call natural angle. The red will basically pot with varying degrees of thickness of contact on the second red always close to the natural angle not just because there is room for error in the pocket size. Its close to the pocket and it kind of arcs into it. It tends to leave at that natural angle. . Unless you hit it too thin or too thick obviously... but there is an in between where it works. About 7:56 im not sure... i feel like when i play those i hit cushion first. The cushion compresses and the side spin makes the black go. And because of cushion compression the black will go more often than you think with different amount of side spin and power. Not super consistently though but quite a bit. Although i understand what you mean about it leaving at 90 degrees... not sure about this one. Although the amount of side spin needed for this shot is a lot and if you just hit a cushion head on with so much side spin it leaves at a very different angle to what you see here after the black gets potted. So its definitely cushion first and then black and it leaves very close to 90. Maybe someone else can come along and give his view about these 2 points

Only I feel if you go away from what feels natural to much it could have a negative impact

It’s depends how you sight the ball and can be affected by the angle and tilt of your head. The last part of this video explains how you can find out how to get everything in the right place

Break from life thank you

It would make a nice exhibition shot, although probably lost on the audience!

if you mean the one where I did a trick shot and then said does anybody else want to have a go I think I’ve got four replies from that two were quite good but lasted about 10 seconds each. And the other 2 were just on a pool table instead so needed more unfortunately

I don’t think so nah, because the cue ball already made contact with the object ball (the black in this case) before the object ball left the bed of the table
