Understanding Deflection and Swerve | Train with Me 

Thanks for this unsolicited and unbiased feedback 🙏

With playing that infrequently I think just hitting a series of 5-10 shots that are relativity easy, but help you feel relaxed and accurate as possible would be 👍 If you are playing for the afternoon, maybe just do this for 20-30 minutes and then go have fun🤗

I think your referring to forehand English ie moving your bridgehand a tip or 2 left or right .

Parallel shift the cue. There is another method of pivoting the cue, it’s called “back hand English”. No pros use that, or very few…

@@jrw0707 thanks

@@jrw0707 makes sense the pivot system doesn't work because how hard you shoot and your bridge length changes the amount of deflection, but with parallel shift system all you have to do is calculate based on equipment, speed, and distance from the cue ball which is quantifiable with trial and error and reps.

I've been playing for 10 years and have no clue either

Spin or English or “side” refers to sidespin applied to the cue ball (CB) by hitting left or right of the cue-ball vertical centerline. Inside and outside spin are relative to the cut. If you cut the object ball to left, then left english is outside spin and right english is inside spin. If you cut the object ball to right, then left english is inside spin and right english is outside spin.

@@danender5555 that make sense. Thank you for the explanation, I greatly appreciate it!

No

You must play on a bar box with 5” pockets. This is a big boy 9ft table with 4.25” pockets. If you think you don’t need to adjust for close distance spin shots, you know nothing!

That's just my opinion, there is no fixed dress code that prescribes the wearing of dark clothing. (unless there is a tournament dress code!) Players prefer to wear dark clothing to avoid distractions and to have a clear view of the table. The color of clothing does not directly affect the game, but it can affect the concentration and visibility of players and spectators if everything becomes too colorful. Otherwise, simply observe the dress code for the respective competition. Even in tutorials, it can be more pleasant for spectators if the color of the players' clothing is neutral at the table, which depending on the room and light, does not always have to be a very dark color. Personally, I like to wear black pants and shoes for pool billiards and preferably a plain dark sports polo shirt or something similar with a club emblem's. Fun fact: you can wear more club or advertising emblems on darker clothing ;)
