Wow, the man actually can explain if he wants to. All previous attempts I've seen from Ronnie were "idk.. it's easy.. white into the red, red into the pocket, you know..."
I think this chap may go far in the game.
Still?
All right then, 3000 centuries coming up.
Ronnie basically saying : don't use my cue action
Ronnies action is exactly like a piston
Exactly? You mean a piston stroke, yes?
Would you say that "exactly" is exactly why he is not why he is admittedly the best long potter?
Could we now dare to say we should not listen to him on technique for long potting?
If I said the answer is NO to following his advice, everyone will give me the electric chair inside a gas chamber.
When going below center of the cue ball, especially from long distance, that elbow drop piston stroke is not ideal.
I think Ronnie's career example is to be admired for important data.
It lends toward proving not even freak talent, can override ideal mechanics.
Ding is one of the best from long range, he doesn't drop the elbow.
Just saying, and I hate a pendulum swing for lack of comfort and flexibility in proximity to the cue ball, but it is the most accurate and believe it or not, most powerful.
Nothing in the delivery platform moves faster than the forearm.
Not a lot of range of motion though.
If Ronnie is hitting the cue ball before the elbow drops, then that is acceptable.
More than likely he probably is especially when his success rate is high, but the timing is very close and more than likely he is not on his times where his success rate is low.
it's hard to measure the timing of this occurrence even at the slowest speed frame speed on RUclips.
Looks pretty solid to me. This guy should definitely try Q School next year.
The greatest of all time.
More tips from Ronnie please
"I'm not the best long ball potter myself, but..."
But....got tons of titles, over a thousand centuries and millions of dollars won so....I think you can take my word.
Says the G.O.A.T.
But... i use a rocking motion in my cue action and hit down on the ball - but it works for him perfectly
He's not. Never been his strongest suit
@@captainhindsight8604 and that’s what makes him so good since he is able to play shots where he’s strongest
Are you saying that you do what he says not to do even though Ronnie is full of it because he does rock the stick up and down for many different types of shots but are you saying it works for him and not you because he's just the lucky guy in the universe and you are not?
If what I just said is basically correct then the difference between you and Ronnie is that when the tip arcs upward in the backstroke then it will have a descending forward delivery and that is okay for certain shots but when we want that vertical trajectory to not Arc down but yet we are rocking the stick then that means on the second warm-up stroke when you pull it back after the first forward stroke descended down now on the second backstroke the tip will scoop low and upward toward your bridge hand.
When this occurs, never pull the trigger from there, I myself have been working on those things for years trying to find something in that forward delivery that will make certain shots become automatic and I have never figured out a solution from there and if you watch pros play you will see what I'm talking about that may be on a high left of center trajectory can use a stroke like that but other than that especially below center there is no future in a rising tip in the forward delivery.
So since we never pull the trigger from there, we take another backstroke for the third time and this is where you will notice the tip will slightly rise again just like the first warm-up stroke but the arc upward will be a lot shallower and this is your green light so pull the tip all the way back typically to your bridge hand and deliver the q forward like you typically do and if you watch this with many players especially on the American poolside, watch Shane Van boning for instance or Earl Strickland two of some of the best players ever, and it's usually on that third pull back that they pull the trigger, and you will see that from the side that they cannot see of course, you will see a stick trajectory being delivered at a shallow angle and on plane and no tip diving or tip rising.... Typically and that is the same thing that Ronnie is doing and it's most evident when he is now running out the loan colors on the table and he gets to the Brown ball straight because if you watch Ronnie closely and he gets into his pattern and routine he either gets straight on the brown and now has to draw it slightly back for an angle shot on the green and the rest is history or he has something of a shallow angle on the brown and he either holds it for position in which he has a stretch out for the green and come to rails for the blue.
He's like a video game.
Those shots where you get straight on the brown the camera angle is typically behind them where you can see what his stick is doing if you go watch his matches typically like at The crucible for instance and you will see exactly what I just said and it's usually on that third or fourth pull back that gets shallower and that is when he in a rhythmic fashion and hypnotic I should say as well, now accelerates forward and there is camera parallax and it really looks like he's coming in jacked up but that is not the case.
That tip is rising on that final backstroke but it is very shallow and finally, a person could ask a good question and say what happens if you now go for a fourth stroke which should have a rising tip on the forward stroke and therefore go for a fifth practice stroke where shouldn't the tip arcing up even more shallow now and the answer is no and it doesn't start over the same way although it does start over again but typically your XY position of the elbow is not in the same position as when you stand up and transition into a dress of the cue ball so the best thing to do is stand up and start over again because typically you never go to the fifth stroke if that is part of your routine and therefore you will be in no man's land and not in the correct position like you normally are but it will be hard for you to know that but at Ronnie's level he already knows guaranteed.
I don't care what tournament or whatever for the past 15-20 years when he straight in on the brown running out the last colors on the table he is dialing in with those arcing upward and downward indicators because that is mechanical truth being told to you in which the stick and your setup is not lying to you and Ronnie has been doing it the same way for years and years and years whereas somebody like Trump I believe wedges with grip pressure to make the tip Force downward into your bridge hand and therefore spine bends the queue and takes it up and back on one single plane Arc and then pushes that bent cue forward in which now with perfect timing the cue straightens out just before cue ball impact and he gets an additional springing forward of the queue doesn't he.
At most camera angles you can't see that but one time I was lucky enough to catch it with a camera angle that was somewhat behind him and angled upward as if the camera man were on his knees and that told me a lot because I was always led to believe that they are just riding it in their grip hand and along on their bridge v and I thought to myself my God the tremendous skill involved and knowledge of alignment you would need and it doesn't appear that that is the case and it's almost gimmick like if you think about it but if you've never tried it then go ahead you'll see how much skill it takes even to do that because you still got to get your body in the right position
I wonder will we see the best of O'Sullivan again because his best was unbeatable but even if we don't we can't complain with what this man had done and won in snooker,the best there's ever been by quite a bit.
The guy seems to know what he's talking about.
🤣
I bet he would be a good Snooker player if he ever deicded to go pro
@@IaKhanic 7 times world champion
@@Spoyder correction mate 6 times champion. N he knows, was just kidding
The 147 master man bow down
One of the crucial shots. Gotta love it.
Like a boss!
without a doubt, absolutely Ronnie Da GOAT.
Thank you Ronnie ! …
What's that cue made of? Sounds like balsa wood
Not to shabby
Nice shot
Ронни,ты лучший!!!!!!!
Learning from the best.
Aeeeee Rosangela, ficar por aqui pode ser meio solitário prum brasileiro.
@@fbg5678 vdd, mas já estou acostumada hehe
Thats great just need tutorials on short pots, doubles, break offs, safety shots, positional shots and ill be good to go
This boys got a future x
I have been potting remaining black since 2 hours on my practice table. :D
How many takes or was it 2 videos put into one ? The greatest of all time. 👏
Most top 16 players during practise can pot pretty much anything.
@@sladjanivkovic2 Ronnie was playing a shot on a show last week and didn’t get close to the pot first shot then 2nd and 3rd was better, he was using the eurosport cue ….
Keep practising son....you will get there in the end 😉
I want many more ronnie instructional videos
Yes! Low how to make pancakes!
Ronnie's the guvunor100%
it it str8
Legend says this was take 147
So what he means by vertical then??
The guy is really good, he should try in professional snooker.
Epic 😂
🤣🤣🤣
❤👌✌
He took that red without having to attempt at all.
That is blood from a stone.
😀
I wonder how many tries it took.
Guy made a hundred break when he was 10 and said I’m not the best long potter 😂
You can tell he was very delighted where the white ball finished
N.1
Ok, und jetzt will ich die anderen 200 Versuche sehen!😁
this guy could turn pro i think
Ronnie wearing a 9.99 casio watch
Cue does the talking. Not bravado.
I know a few millionaires that wear them lol
I've heard he uses it to time the TV intervals so he knows how long he's got to have a piss :)
That's a good tier watch mate.
This guy should consider playing snooker that shot was pretty good
Its possible to get that shot at some point, but managing the white like he did takes lots and lots of practice !
It’s just a stun shot LmAO
@@silverburst79
People are tonguing Ronnie's balls so bad. It's honestly embarrassing
Mmmm. Ronnie uses the complete opposite technique that he claims here. You can clearly see him in matches lowering the cue butt with his shoulder and elbow (the Del- Drive). This drops the cue away from his chin as he hits the ball and enables the cue to be delivered through impact in a parallel relationship to the bed of the table. It allows a longer follow-through and prevents the right hand from hitting the chest and early deceleration of the cue.
Great observation. Wonderful technique if it can be mastered.
When you’re a master you can break the rules
Ronnie uses an advanced technique, he explains the standard one for the average Joe.
Here, he talks about what he thinks. In match, his instinct takes over. I think we all should think that way when we practice trying to develope the muscle memory like his.
It really depends on what u wanna do with the cueball aftrr the strike.if its a pull back shot then this method wont work but he was just talking about potting long shots.
ET
As easy as that folks
I’ve learnt more from this 1 min video than watching mark selby play for 15 years
Kunnt looks like Emu
This guy should try professional snooker. He seems to have it.
Recycled joke, lameee
who's this guy trying to give lessons. tell him to show his name on ny of the trophies. jesus.. any hook n Crook comes and gives lessons..
After his most recent loss, he desperately needs to practice his safety shots.
He needs to practice to "want to win". Nowadays he just plays it like a hobby i think. His form crashes and rises within a matter of minutes. Against Yan he hit that legendary 73 break to win the frame playing impeccable snooker and in the next frame he misses the pink from the spot and crashes out of the tournament. Its bizarre but thats what it is.
STEPHEN LEE eats longer hotdogs than these pots!
No Ronnie, "vertical" is more productive in description, not horizontal.
There is no horizontal, either closer to or not, but never horizontal.
The vertical aspect is what is relevant, and what the cue ball itself recognizes as a force vector. The vertical aspect with timing is what dictates what the white recognizes as closer or not to horizontal.
Smarten up Ronnie, stop trying to reinvent the wheel.
ENOUGH OF THAT NOW🤨, I bid you good day SIR🧐
Not the greatest teacher I've ever listened to... 🤔
