For sure. Just started watching the road to US Open playlist. Really interesting and informative. Gonna be fun watching the other episodes. Thanks Rollie!
There is a great dynamic between you two for this series The witty amateur, always cracking jokes and going on a tangents. The somewhat dead pan pro who’s focused on what he’s there for. Somehow I get a feeling you will rub off on each other across this series. Rollie may start to take things a little more seriously and your coach slip into your humour from time to time. Best of luck.
As a psychology student i like him adressing your mental attitude indirectly while coaching you. Always mentioning positives before critizing, and makes sure to affirm your strengths. As a pool player I can also tell you, you should have quite some confidence in your game. Of course it's intimidating playing with pro's but you will be there for a reason. So try to work on the table on your game, but of the table on not talking yourself down all the time, you have developed quite the good game!
the more you talk about what you dont want the bigger it gets. Instead of focusing on the validation you might get of winning against a pro you should be focusing on what puts you in a good mood. If i dont feel good i just focus on my breathing or i imagine myself potting balls. If you do this over and over again your body as your subconscious mind doesnt know the difference between whats going on on the table and what you are imagining
Wow, what Hunter said about relaxing your bridge arm and making contact with the table is something I had NEVER heard before and it improved my stroke IMMEDIATELY. Can't wait to see more. I learn something good from every Rollie video.
I love how direct and to the point Hunter is. No sugar coating whatsoever on his feedback. Good stuff Rollie! I’m looking forward to seeing your progress over the coming weeks.
16:50 "But we're training right now, so it's not a foul." Man, I'd been enjoying this guy's teaching up to this point (his tendency to compliment before critique, his thorough explanations, etc), but this is the line that really stuck out to me. Just a great way to focus and to keep track of the fact that training is so that you don't commit these mistakes when it *matters* - because it doesn't right now. Great vid as always, Rollie. Keep it up and good luck at the Open.
This a great attribute to have as a teacher, to not allow any bs. Its slightly annoying when students are not focussing on the most important task at hand but are distracted by something that is not important.
Hunter is a great coach, been watching him play since he was a teen! I've seen first hand the transformation effect he has had on quite a few players here in SFLA, making average pool players with a little skill 1-3 balls better after a couple sessions. Don't think you can go wrong with that choice in coaches Rollie!!
🤣 i personally thought he looked more like penguin from the series gotham.. But agreed good luck and good video rollie P.s. you ever post your dr dave billiards exam score?
Wow! Just wow. I never heard of him but as German, the US is not that much of my focus. But he looks like a hell of a good trainer. Focused, not taking any bs. And he has an eye for details that have great impact. Just from this few bits of advise I learned a lot. The bridge seems very underrated in lessons. Thanks a lot for that video!
You can tell Hunter is a perfectionist, going down to the very low-level opposing thumb positioning and cuetip-ball distance technique, which I'm aware are quite important, but he's also imprinting his style of play on you and maybe taking away of some of what makes you, you, as a player. Some of the best players in the world have technique quirks (looking at you Efren) and play a more relaxed and "for fun" game. I wish you get a good result from the US Open, but remember to enjoy playing (remember the video with Eckert). Cheers mate!
Disagree, he's imposing techniques that give him the best chance for success. Sure anybody can do things unorthodox (or even flat out wrong) but that doesn't mean you should train that way. Hunter is teaching very well.
'you being you' is when you have the chance to make that choice...can't make a choice if you are stubborn and just want to 'be yourself' (do things as you have always done) and also makes using a coach irrelevant.
Process at the expense of outcome...something I’ve been struggling with since I started really trying to elevate my game, thanks Rollie and I’m sure you’ll do just fine in the Open, don’t put pressure on yourself and have fun with it dude
Your last video and this helped me jump from a B player to B+ in a week. Now I am forced to play even games with players who used to give me 8 ball spot. Hints from these pros really make huge difference. Those are something I had never even thought of. Thanks a lot.
@@davids11131113 ive played a fair bit of snooker and id love to try some american pool. the size of the pockets astounds me lol, but ive seen some masters with the cue ball just like snooker
Really happy that you put this up Rollie. I can work on the same issues, especially the cueing closer to the ball, to help eliminate the unintentional spin. please keep posting these training sessions.
This guy is particularly good at teaching. The ability to teach and spot weaknesses is frequently different from the ability to play well. The exception is pedagogy nerds; people who learn to play well by imagining that they are teaching someone as they grow as a player. I also want to add that I love that RUclips lets me speed on videos, because I don't have the attention span to watch this at 1x. Not a criticism, I just need higher information density, which you can't get from a conversational format.
I really was not sure of the nature of this video but looking forward to the next, gave myself some particular aspect to use working on my own game with the limited time and value. I found Hunters evaluations and technical support very enlightening informative and positive.
I've been practicing for the 8 Ball US Open. Not sure if I want to go this year yet or not but I'm putting the work in. thanks for doing this video Rollie.
Going out to play tonight. For sure going to put some of these tips into playing. Especially the laying down of arm and controlling/adjusting my bridge correctly. Great video of instruction from a pro. Very much appreciated.
So great. Today is a day of 4-5hrs of practice. Off from work. It took 45yrs but I have a billiard room in my study. The goal is major improvements in 2020.
@7:05 The day before the tournament starts, I think "they" should scuff the new rail cloth with a buffing wheel or something like that, to prevent poorly hit balls from going in. Also, they should "train the table" to avoid racking issues. Draw an outline around the rack. Dampen the rack area, tap the balls in place, then let dry overnight. During the match, place the rack, then load the balls. Do not allow the players to move the loaded rack back and forth.
Wow, this is amazing info I was playing 22 years ago and had professional lessons then. I owned a replica Balabushka at the age of 15 and still have it with 2 shafts. I would like to get back into it, because of your videos, thanks for that.
I love what you are doing.... when all the practice is over and the match starts just concentrate on playing every shot with confidence ..fear is the enemy..the best of luck ..Ian
I have been playing pool somewhat competitively on and off since the early 90s. The advice he gave at 11:05 is something I've never heard but makes complete sense. And I'm guilty of not doing it as well. Now I have to go try it out...
Rollie I am a real life leprechaun.. I'm blessing you with my irish luck. DONT WASTE IT! Take your time... unless the shots are timed idc if it takes you an hour to figure out what your going to do. CONTROL THE MATCH. KEEP IT AT YOUR PACE.. Pay attention to percentages. And remember your fundamnetals... dont let nerves get to you... remember what you've learned. Have that inner confidence and focus and deliver every shot with a solid follow through. There's a lot of people backing you. Regardless of how you do, We all love you Bruv. LOVE FROM ANOTHER AMATEUR POOL PLAYER! Ohio-USA.
Rollie Williams just for saying that bs to you, is slip the current Fargo rate link for him in the video description......5th? Lmao try 84th! Even as average players we know it’s only 1st n 2nd that even make it in this game anymore, mad props for finding a way to make it in the pool world! Shows heart
16:47 "But we are training right now, so it's not a foul." It seems like it could be a sarcastic remark or something, but I find this little nugget of advice very helpful and useful. It's always good to remind yourself that there is a difference between training during practice and a live match. When you practice, it's to improve and get better. There would be no improvement if there were no mistakes, to begin with, right? Therefore, it's okay and certainly expected that you'd make mistakes during your drills or practice games. Why? Because as a player who wants to improve, you'll take note of those mistakes and do what you can to limit or eliminate them, even if it's a grind.
Richard Ryan so true! Or try explaining to a drinking team that plays pool on a valley weekly that the cue ball plays different, then having to explain no it’s not the rails are bad its operator error and the pockets are not only way bigger but also cut easy AF! Especially if the drinking team is already 8 shots (whiskey not pool shots) into weekly match they still wanna gamble you.......for a drink🤷♂️ and quit after loosing first bet but still 🗣blah🗣blah🗣blah! The reason most real players won’t even mention knowing the game when at a bar cartching a buzz! Hunter is prime example of this if he’s 5th in country right now, I’ve seen em play and know he’s top notch player but I didn’t even think he was top 100 let alone 5th!
Wow rollie.. i have been playing pool for awhile.. i never knew my bridge arm has to be relaxed with the fingers relax. I had problems jumping up on my shots. I usually grip the table with my fingers, so that creates tension in my bridge arm. I used the techniques with relax bridge arm and fingers, problem solved.. my stroke is nice and smooth now.. thanks.. have more videos with Hunter.
Rollie you're a really good player, of course those pros are basically aliens, wish you collab with some brazilian players, for example: Baianinho de Maua(one of the most famous peoples in Brazil related to pool), love your channel, big love from brazil, good luck in your progress.
Great video and great display of Hunter's teaching style. I just have a small concern for you Rollie, that 10 weeks is not enough for him to "tear you down and build you back up" as it were. I think in the long run it will pay off handsomely to improve your fundamentals, and you'll be a much improved player, but in the short term your game will probably take a hit. On the other hand, he didn't seem to have made a really big change to your routine, so maybe you do have time before US Open. We'll see after next time :) Good luck to you! Also, I thought that finger tapping was an involuntary tic. I caught myself doing it several times and it was completely subconscious. You also didn't seem to have done it on purpose on the video. It might be the brain just subconsciously copying what it's seen other people do or it might be a way that body releases stress subconsciously.
No tension in the bridge hand huh. When taking a lesson from Alex Pagulayan the first thing he does is wiggle my bridge and stress the importance of having that solid. Look at pics of Corey Duel bridging, his fingers are contorted from pressing down on the table so much. Who knows though, maybe this is the way of the new.
I am really struggling with getting clean strokes, which is frustrating to say the least. The tips given in this video about the tip-to-cue ball distance and the alignment of the bridge to the line of shot could be very helpful in giving me a more consistent cleaner stroke. Imma try that later!
Reason for the “Snooker Finger tapping” is because of how low they get on the shot, it’s a natural thing when you are locked chin low , but yes you are right coaches do Promote it for better timing.
That guy points out things in such a confident way that he could literally tell me the biggest bullshit ever and I would believe him and do it^^ I like coaches like this. They somehow have this aura that makes you trust them.
transmitting pro lessons to his audiences is the best thing you have done, Rollie. Thank you!
Happy to do it. Thanks for watching.
@@RollieWilliams who wins Snooker world championships this year, do you think Judd Trump defends his crown successfully or another player ?
For sure. Just started watching the road to US Open playlist. Really interesting and informative. Gonna be fun watching the other episodes. Thanks Rollie!
There is a great dynamic between you two for this series
The witty amateur, always cracking jokes and going on a tangents.
The somewhat dead pan pro who’s focused on what he’s there for.
Somehow I get a feeling you will rub off on each other across this series.
Rollie may start to take things a little more seriously and your coach slip into your humour from time to time.
Best of luck.
Rollie should pin this comment so we can go back here after 10 weeks and say you're right 😂
Dude this is straight killing me
Rollie can you make the whole us open a vlog with you travelling to the event and your whole time at the event?
As a psychology student i like him adressing your mental attitude indirectly while coaching you. Always mentioning positives before critizing, and makes sure to affirm your strengths.

Hi Rollie, do you have footage of your us open match and can I know what kind of cue you use ?
Thanks

What kind of shaft you using Rollie?
Great video, great teacher.
Oh this is what hicup from how to train your dragon is doing now
Great video. keeping the tip of the cue close to the q ball makes huge difference .
Reason for the “Snooker Finger tapping” is because of how low they get on the shot, it’s a natural thing when you are locked chin low , but yes you are right coaches do Promote it for better timing.
met Hunter and shane in Qatar in 2011, very down to earth people.
