My Top 10 Snooker TIPS | Best Of BartonSnooker 

Such a great teacher with an amazing and deep insight. Steve, you pour your heart and soul in to your teaching to a dunce like me. I feel very sad that I can't get myself to play that well. However after imbibing your tips at least I can differentiate between my earlier Fluke pots and now the perfect shots. Thanks and Regards.

These are key issues I'm still facing with every time. If someone really pays attention to these valuable points and execute them I think he/she can see the progress very fast. NO ONE SHARE AND THEACHES THESE FREE OF CHARGE! APPRECIATE YOU STEVE!👍👍👍

I don’t know how to thank you sir . Watching your videos has improved my game . I anxiously wait for your videos . Stay safe and blessed . Love from pakistan

Brilliant...when you put these breaks on top of each other! Great idea and very interesting!

I can't believe my luck to have someone like you to instruct me on my snooker game. Keep it going. "Your biggest fan"👍👍

Another great video, loved the two breaks overlaid, really added some great insight.

Honestly never have I ever put so much into practice from watching a video on RU-vid than I do with yours. For someone who has never practiced properly and just goes a couple of times a week for fun, I’ve seen a drastic change even in an amateurs game! I sent you a message asking about your availability and I appreciate the reply! My wife is on about booking me a half day session for my birthday so fingers crossed I get to meet you in person sooner rather than later!

Very good again Steve. Great advice on not strangling the cue. I believe you are the ONLY coach that has made that critical observation a very important part of the basics in explaining the grip. Human nature is to grip the cue tighter the harder you play a shot in the attempt to keep everything as still as possible. Also the gradual increase of cue speed on final delivery. I'll be honest the point about the grip is something i was never aware of having played for many years to a decent standard👏👏👏

Thanks again Steve for these important tips on improving our game, much apppreciated.

Hey Steve. Fan from India. Loved the video. Really useful tips. It's a shame that currently I don't have a way of following your tips and become a better player due to lack of decent clubs from where I come & some other constraints , even after having love for the game. Your videos give me hope and I enjoy each and every one of them. Thanks so much and keep it up. Looking forward to next video.

Thank you @BartonSnooker your tips are extremely useful for me as a beginner player. Well explained and easy to understand at my beginner level. All I need to do now is to try and follow your advice in practice ;-)

Hi Steve, Having watched and played snooker for more years than I care to remember I can say hand on heart that your lessons and demonstrations are the best I’ve ever come across. Congratulations on producing a first class coaching system that even old codgers like me can understand and relate to. I would if I may, like to ask you about an aspect of cue ball control that I find difficult to master and that is being able to hold the spot when the occasion arises. I’m sure you’ve covered it somewhere on your extensive video library but I would be grateful for a few pointers as to how to overcome this particular aspect of my game. Thanks again for the wonderful work you do on behalf of all snooker players whether that be expert or numpty (me) you are like a guru of the game whose patience and dedication to his craft is unsurpassed by anyone.

Cool. Thanks for your kindness of teaching 😊

Love the double break. Awesome 👏

Very much useful tips. Thanks Sir..

Thanks a lot Steve

It is easy to understand and very good tips, it solve me many problem that I confused many years. Thank you very much.

Another great video

I've just started playing again after about 35 years but in that time I've been playing golf and the amount of similarities between the 2 games is amazing

Great video sir😎

Thanks Steve

Highly practical Steve!!!

On most of your videos you mention standing behind the line of the shot, some people do this with the body centered to the line while others with the head tilted and the back foot already on the line, I think a very useful video would be to explain how to properly transition from the standing position to the address position as it can be difficult to do because initially moving the feet can cause the head to move off line especially if you start with the body centered to the line

Hi Steve thanks for all impornant information great job and I like your explain style easy way thanks 😎😊👍...

Another top class video Steve! 😊

Overlaying two breaks at the same time was one of the coolest effects I've ever seen

Great as always Steve thank you. Can I ask is there a video on the channel about getting out of snookers? I would find that most helpful.

This videos is very helpfull and pls make a video related dominant eye and head placement regarding eye

Bundles of Thanks

As always sir ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi Steve, great video as always, much appreciated. We all know the tables that you and the pros use are much faster than the tables at our local clubs but is it possible to demonstrate how much quicker they are? We've all seen Ronnie screwing back the length of the table whilst we struggle to get half that much screw and then we start hitting the ball harder with the usual disastrous results! It would be nice to know what we could reasonably expect. Thanks again. (Sorry if this is a duplicated comment but the first one seems to have disappeared.)

Great instructor "Barton"

Describe why you drop your elbow through delivery? It’s like the Del Hill “Drive” technique… used by O’Sullivan, Selby, Murphy. To ease the senses of crashing your hand into your chest and decelerating early. Also it gives a flat strike through the white, preventing cue ball bouncing and cue deflection. Overall, dropping the butt of the cue slightly through delivery can be a very effective cue action, and I believe reduces “kicks”too.

Your best yet for my level which is improving but still 5 to 6 ball break.

Dear Steve, thanks for all the amazing tips and lessons you're giving. I've got a bit of an odd question. Where did you order the lighting of your table?

Hello Barton. Great effort to improve our snooker. I am a beginner in the snooker, can you please explain or show us how can we judge angles on the object ball. I mean to say how can we judge while standing behind a shot and decide whether it's a three quarter ball, a half ball or a quarter ball?

Looks like another great video this but i can hardly watch it because my pc is misbehaving, i think one of the harddrives is crashing, hope to see it soon.

Brilliant video! Just out of curiosity do you travel to people or do you only coach from your spot?

Thanks Steve, can I ask about heaters in your room. And is your table slate heated at all ? Cheers

Good videos as always. Steve, why did you switched back to green Triangle?

Expecting a video on Ronnie's cue action

Hey mate, I'm hoping you might be able to help. I'm looking to maybe go pro in pool, but love snooker and love practicing the game. I've started playing 5-6 hours a day most days and I'm just wondering if you would be able to give me advice on a good regime for my practices to start getting good at the game

Hi sir, Hoor you are doing good. Whenever I try to screw I am scooping the ball.. Is there any method to practice parallel cueing in order to avoid scooping and hitting exactly the point where we intend to hit? If any, kindly guide me sir. Regards, Ash elf

Question when you first hite the ball with the que are your eyes on the white ball or the Target ball

The Cue itself hasn't really changed that much over the years, how do you feel about an Aluminium or Carbon Fibre Cues and are they available anywhere? 🤔

Big fan …. My potting is amazing for short distance but the long shots are not in correct line while using more pace can you help to explain how to overcome ???

Dear Steve I have a strange issue. I would be thankful if you help why it is like this. The issue is that when I THINK I am hitting the cue ball in center, my friend says you're putting right hand side spin (in reality he is right and it is clear by cue ball direction or spin even but I see it center ). Now to compensate this I have to put almost 1.5 tip to the left side. With this I strike perfectly straight. (BTW let me tell you the I'm wearing glasses) Have you ever heard this or faced with such issue😄 and if you have any advice in this regard? Sorry for long text and many thanks again.

I have tried lengthening the back swing but when I pull back I tend to then not have a straight line and when pushing through I am not pushing through middle of cue ball. How do you keep the cue in a straight line when you pull back further. Struggling to loosen grip properly on back swing- too tight and I lose line - too loose and lose control of cue and again don’t push through in straight line. Finding balance harder any ideas on that issue? Do you see that as a problem with snooker players you are teaching

Watched this again today.I popped up the club today and potted a few balls..but my matches are terrible..im missing everything. What is the most likely reason!!??

So how many of us thought we’d come in late only to realise it’s a best of anthology

hi , can someone plz tel me what comontators means by "margin of error "

You have to love any sport where you have to “do some waggles” 🤣

KNOW WHAT IAM DOING WRONG..BUT LAWD FADDA..MENTAL DISCIPLINE

selby and angles mac head movement both brill despite. not good for me focus key

🙏🙏👌👌👏👏

Where are you based?

Why is it so important to keep your head still but many players tap there fingers on the table whilst they're down on a shot?

I want meet you

Someone’s given this a thumbs down 🙄🙈

If ur playing on bad table with a roll better of hitting it hard than easy tho no?? Dodgy table make ya worse aswel would it
