Love shooting that Follow hook shot into the side! You never disappoint Doc. Far and above all the rest of the pool video content. I really do appreciate all your hard work, thanks a lot!
Thanks for the supportive comments. I should have hit that hook shot a little less full and with more speed to show a more dramatic hook, but effective is good too. :)
Astounding!!! Goes to show the number of possibilities are nearly endless ... but we go on intent which is the limiter. : ) Most everything is possible ... based on "IF". One of the greatest games on earth for sure!!! Be Safe
Most shots in play are simple; but when you are forced into something "creative," it is good to know what to do (and have confidence to pull it off, based on past practice).
That's more than enough to keep me busy for the rest of my life! :) Although some of these are low percentage and hence not tournament friendly. Thanks!
You better get started, then. :) Some of these shots are low percentage; but when they come up in game situations, it is nice to have some confidence to execute them (hence the practice). BTW, many of the shots are not as tough as you might think.
I would love to see a challenge match between you,Dr. Dave and any professional player just for fun.would be awesome to see all what you teach us been put to practice.i will be rooting for you ❤
I've seen Jason Shaw play out of necessity of course a very peculiar bridge. He was playing on the non favourable side of the table and he grabbed the cue with an undegrip, the thumb facing the tip, and played laying with his stomach pressing his arm to the table. He didn't bother to play behind his back. It was a parallel straight shot along the long cushion on a Bigfoot table. Looked strange but he hit it full and clean.
@@DrDaveBilliards Okay. I thought running was used as a synonym for outside, but maybe I'm wrong. So right spin in that case is running since it's a follow/stun shot, and would be reverse only if it was a draw?
After looking at the exclamation point in the thumbnail, for just a second, I thought you were going to detail 200 factorial shots! I don't think I have the kind of time to watch that video😂
what is the way to determine the angle of the bridge hand? i think as soon as the bridge hand touches the cloth i think i turn abit too much the bridge hand to the right, which causes alignment issue, i have tried to slide through my bridge hand towards the line of aim as hand touches the cloth , but i still turn my bridge hand to right and it causes huge alignment issue. is there a best practice to find the best bridge angle? example: i heard the middle finger should be pointing towards object ball which i am not sure if its true , but i am looking for something to determine the correct bridge hand angle? thank you very much in advance
The “V” should be facing the shot; although, it really doesn’t matter much as long as the bridge is firm and still during the shot. See the videos and info here: billiards.colostate.edu/faq/bridge/open/
@@DrDaveBilliards tnx for the reply. well i think i turn my bridge hand to the right, and my bridge arm also turns with it. and that is why my butt of the cue goes to left of line of aim. can you please explain more which part of the v should be facing towards shot? because even if i turn my bridge hand right now from every angle the bridge hand can have v facing towards shot. even if the bridge hand is facing straight eg: the middle finger towards shot, the v is facing towards shot, or even if the middle finger is pointing towards 1oclock , the v is still pointing towards the shot but from different v prespective. i know its confusing. i am 100% sure this bridge hand is causing alignment issue and no coach ever could help me. you are my last option. please give me some suggestion :) tnx
@@DrDaveBilliards thank you i did that, and with my normal bridge i can see that my hand is always pointing towards 1oclock, and not straight. tnx i will practice this
@@DrDaveBilliards I thought so, could not be anything else lol. I'm getting a 8 foot table very soon in my living room and something tells me that my neighbor is not going to leave me alone lol. Have a good night, happy shooting oh, one more thing practice practice practice. love the vids, take care.
Actually, none of these was really ridiculously hard, probably because I had practiced them before, working on past videos. None of these shots was new to me. The jump bank was probably the toughest since it needs to be hit so perfectly. I think it took about 10 tries.
For somebody not good at jumping, many of the jump shots would be tough. For those who want to get better and jumps, see the videos and info here: billiards.colostate.edu/faq/jump/technique/
Lol.. poor Dr Dave had to include the "you can pause or rewind" cuz you KNOW somebody probably made a silly complaint of the last vid going too fast for them 🤣
Thanks for letting me know. I just posted a "CORRECTION" in the video description and pinned comment. Please let me know if you spot any more errors (in either video). Doing the edits of these videos is so long and tedious, it is difficult to not make occasional mistakes.
Dave, you might not realize you are teaching another method, or at least haven't named it yet... I call it "WAMHDD" (Watch A Million Hours of Dr. Dave) ::)

I’m digging the techno jazz soundtrack lol and nice shooting!
I'm glad you like the music. It is actually software-generated by my video editing software. Pretty good for software, IMO.
Best pool channel out there 10/10. Post more of these types of clips.
I'm glad you like them, but I need a break. These take a ton of time to do.
It is amazing how many of these are old straight pool shots. Great Job Dr. Dave!
8-ball and straight pool have a lot in common.
Love shooting that Follow hook shot into the side! You never disappoint Doc. Far and above all the rest of the pool video content. I really do appreciate all your hard work, thanks a lot!
Thanks for the supportive comments. I should have hit that hook shot a little less full and with more speed to show a more dramatic hook, but effective is good too. :)
And he does it again. What a legend 😤🤘
Thanks for the comment.
It is a wonderful almost limtless game. Excellent video.
Agreed. Thanks.

I only have one word, Awesome! Thanks, Dr. Dave.
Cheers from Denmark.
Thank you, and you're welcome.
That's more than enough to keep me busy for the rest of my life! :)

Goodness gracious, how are there this many types of shots for our big physics table toy? I love this
I could do many more, but I think 200 is enough for now. Pool is awesome.
I would love to see a challenge match between you,Dr. Dave and any professional player just for fun.would be awesome to see all what you teach us been put to practice.i will be rooting for you ❤
I probably wouldn't be as fun as you might think. I'm old, and I'm a professional instructor, not a professional player, so I would get crushed.

That would be interesting to see. Can you find the shot and post a link (or the name of the video with the MM:SS timestamp to the shot)? Thanks!
Dr Dave, the legend
As if the first video wasn’t useful enough, here comes the Dr. with double the info. Extremely valuable stuff.
These videos were a lot of work (mostly in editing), but the shooting was excellent practice. I'm glad you and others like them.
193 (among many others) was so satisfying to watch, if i ever pull this off in a match i'd lose my mind lol
I hope you lose your mind some day. :)
Holy Cow! That's a Ton!
DAM right! :)
Amazing work!
Thanks!
Great stuff as always! One thing: I wouldn't call #122 running spin.
Thanks! If you stun it into the 1st rail, #122 wouldn't be "running" on the 1st rail; but if you look at how I hit it, it was "running" on both rails.
@@DrDaveBilliards Okay. I thought running was used as a synonym for outside, but maybe I'm wrong. So right spin in that case is running since it's a follow/stun shot, and would be reverse only if it was a draw?
@@PoolProblems Correct. See the illustrations and videos here:

That's funny.

@@TheBlueTechnology Put a pen or pencil on your bridge so it is balanced level, and then turn your hand until the pen points at the shot line.
@@DrDaveBilliards thank you i did that, and with my normal bridge i can see that my hand is always pointing towards 1oclock, and not straight. tnx i will practice this
Great information.
Thanks. I’m glad you think so.
Are those reinforcement labels on the table to help with accurate ball placement?
Yes. See:
billiards.colostate.edu/faq/training/teaching/
@@DrDaveBilliards I thought so, could not be anything else lol. I'm getting a 8 foot table very soon in my living room and something tells me that my neighbor is not going to leave me alone lol. Have a good night, happy shooting oh, one more thing practice practice practice. love the vids, take care.
Where does this brilliant soundtrack come from?
It is software generated by my video editing software (Pinnacle Studio).
9:48 “I got ‘lucken’ shot.”
Yep. The good le "L" shot. It is not as tough as it looks if you have practiced it before.
200 factorial ? That's a lot!
And a "lot!" is even more!!! :)
yessss
Interesting 😊
I'm glad you think so. It was just as fun to create as the first video.
2:12 the spin on the ball is low right ( inside spin )
Yep. I already added a "CORRECTION" to the video description and pinned comment.
Hi Dave - which of these 100 shots took the most attempts? :)
Actually, none of these was really ridiculously hard, probably because I had practiced them before, working on past videos. None of these shots was new to me. The jump bank was probably the toughest since it needs to be hit so perfectly. I think it took about 10 tries.
For somebody not good at jumping, many of the jump shots would be tough. For those who want to get better and jumps, see the videos and info here:

198 was new to me!
I'm glad you learned something new. I also learned a few things and tried a few shots I had never tried before in creating these videos.
I just need some of them to come up in game situations so I can put the practice to the test. :)
I was hoping for 200 factorial more shots 😢
I could come up with a lot more than 200, but probably not 200! :( :)
4:40 Chris Melling
Yep. Did you see the other one also?
Lol.. poor Dr Dave had to include the "you can pause or rewind" cuz you KNOW somebody probably made a silly complaint of the last vid going too fast for them 🤣
Some people like to just watch shots. Others like to study the layouts and shots. To each thy own.
118 has bottom left should be bottom right :)
