Why are long shots so hard?We miss long shots because we do not hit the cue ball with a center ball hit. When the cue ball travels a long distance, any spin will cause the ball to curve and we miss. You must stroke through the center of the cue ball on long shots. And remember, “look good shooting it”.
Concentration made easyThe Mind Since we are trying to control our minds, we must have a goal. You cannot control something that is scattered in all directions. That is why I ask for your purpose and why. Your mind will automatically see the goals and directions you desire and focus on those things that enable you to fulfill your purpose. Your true purpose is within you. You need to examine self and there lies your answer.
The Pre Shot Routine is not just for rythmn it is to help you control your mind. You cannot control something that is scattered. The shot includes four elements.
The shot offers you a target. The shot asked for a specific stroke. The shot ask for specific speed. The shot ask you to deliver the cue through the cue ball in a precise manner.
You mind controls this. That is why you must be certain, via of your Pre Shot Routine, exactly what you want to achieve.
You have a goal. Make the ball and get position on the next shot. On any shot your face, you must deliver the ingredients within the shot to achieve your goal. If you goal is clear, your PSR will put you in position for success. If you are not using your PSR to control your mind, you are scattered and will be an inconsistent player.
The mind should see only those objects which bring the mind closer to the goals you have set forth. Therefore, the PSR is the only way you can begin your journey to pocket balls and get position on the next ball. There is no other way to gain the consistency you need to become a master.
There are two things you must master. Your set up (PSR) and your respect for one shot at a time. If you can shoot each shot, like you "came to win" you will break through to the big time.
The Pre Shot Routine is vital to your gameRely on your tempo. Build trust skills.
A fine work of art.I believe you should have a copy of my dvd Bring Your Game to It’s Highest Level: The Four Strokes of Pool CUE BALL SPEED.
These dvd’s will help you reach the highest level of play.
I have discovered four inner game stagesOn our way to the top we experience four inner game stages.The Lonely Conflict Stage. The Warrior Learning Stage. The Champion Wisdom Stage The Enlightenment Stage. I go into detail on these stages in my book Focus on Winning, formally entitled My Student from Hell. Take time to read about this. I promise you will learn something you never thought of.
