I find your instructional videos to be the most helpful on youtube. Not just for pool, but period. You break it down, explain it, show it, and then explain it again. You'd be a great elementary school teacher, which is the highest profession after parenthood. Thanks!
Thank you very much. I’ve been around teachers my entire life. My mother was a teacher then a professor at Penn State. My uncle is a professor and then a dean at Queens College. Maybe I picked up the skill through them. Thank you very much for watching.
Amen!
That “Shot @ the gap” is a game changer for me! Thank you for sharing! I love your videos
As always your clarity and demonstration are spot on making it easy for the beginner and avid player alike. Thank you for all of your expertise and hard work..
You're very welcome!
Timely advice. I just lost a run to 7 because of scratches. The point about not caring about position after the money ball shot is why. I’m paying attention from now on.
Agreed. Such a simple concept, but it never really occured to me until he pointed it out. Too focused on winning, or, in this case, losing!
Your absolutely right , I've lost matchs by putting running English and scratching.
I’m grateful that you watched my video. Thanks for your comment as well.
Thank you very very much for all your help. I am a beginner player, and a lot of things you showed have helped me .
Glad to help!
Elementary is good!!!!❤
Great tips!!! Thank you!!
Americas favorite scratch shot…I did it today at the Green Room!!!!!
I so enjoy and learn so much from you . Thanks very much!
I'm so glad to help
Great teacher very helpful information
Glad it was helpful!
You def helped me with one scratch that I always make. And it is also a money shot.
Thank you Bryan for sharing 🎱
Tangent line requires no cue ball rotation upon impact.
Love those reverse banks as well!!
Loving your videos!!!!!😊
Glad you like them!
Thank you Bryan
Excellent lecture. Could I suggest you mount the camera over the table to help the viewer see better and grasp what you are lecturing. From you shooting on the opposite side of the table made it difficult to see the results.
Thank you Practice!
Any time!
Love it - America’s Favorite! But not mine! Thanks for saving my game!
Thanks for watching Lori - We need more ladies in the game. Glad you are here.
@@FXBilliards I sure appreciate your encouragement! And I heard you when you said “he or she,” instead of just he. Thanks for that too! You rock!
I believe we tend to hit the money ball harder, because it's so important. The more rails you go, with the cue ball, after contact, the more possibility of scratching.
SUPER GOOD video! Thanks B. Very helpful appreciate you taking the time to elaborate on the difference types of scratch shots you truly are in my opinion much better at teaching than most if not all the APA instructors keep pushing this content for us B. Everyone loves you and your the Goat in my book. It's crazy that your able to hit jump shots and masse shots while recording on the 1st try that takes Alot!!! Of skill and you do it while talking that's just amazing I recognize things like that thanks alot B. Your awesome!
I think I need to start watching these videos while at the pool hall. I try to remember the drills I want to practice. Love the shoot for the gap concept, haven’t seen that one talked about before. Thanks, Bry!
You should know what you're doing before you enter the pool hall. I think FX billiards said this fact as well . Know what you will practice, how long. So how about write down what you will do, print out the patterns or drills etc. I use a billiards app on my phone to make actual pool table drill charts and just pull that up so I know where to place and shoot
Thanks I was doing some of the mistakes you were talking about
Another good one Brian! You didn't fully explain that right spin on that (left) rail shot. Basically the right spin transfers left spin to the object ball which helps the ball stick to the rail. APP 😂. Yeah we all get greedy sometimes (even pros) 🤦🏾♂️
respekt! der mann nimmt sich sehr viel zeit mit den vielen videos. gut erklärt. danke!
Excellent topic and delivery always!
Excellent, thank you for your tips.
Brian I love your channel. Everytime I view one I come away with great information. SL4-5, This one and the mastering bank are great. Thanks for all your work. I sure I speak for alot of us former "racker".
I appreciate that! Thanks
Very useful as always! Thanks for the excellent tips!
What an incredible lesson!!!thank you coach🙏🙏🙏
LOL "If he plays in the APA you saw it 30 times last month." I'm a solid SL 6, and know better, and still added one to the count this week. Fortunately sat down, cleared my head, and won the match. Also, thanks for the reminder to not get greedy. Thanks again Bryan!
Thanks for watching and thanks for your comments
Most of my scratches usually come after multiple rails. Trying to get that down with first better position and second not rushing which I tend to do when I see an easy run out I overlook a detail and boom. Opponent ball in hand and I just cleared a bunch of mine. Almost a guranteed loss. Thanks for the advice. Its a great video.
I don't leave myself that shot , but often get left that shot.
We need to hear this concept about why the tangent line isn't the bottomline in scratch shots.
I'd introduce the concept of angular momentum to describe why natural (no draw/top spin) collisions deviate from tangent lines. The cue ball has more than just forward momentum. Angular momentum is the momentum of its rotation (not its direction). The angular momentum of the cue ball in a naturally hit (no draw) object ball will follow forward from the tangent line.
Good morning back when i was playing pool As A 4 and was playing A. 6,7,8 and most
Of the time i would win because i was told that i wasn't a 4, that i was playing
Like a 6, or 7, because i knew
A lot about the tangent lines
And right and left hand spin
And drawing to keep from
Scratching,
Great information
Glad it was helpful!
that sure helped me thank you
I call scratching a phenomenon. There were times when once it started, it never stopped no matter how much you tried to avoid it. On one session at the pool table,I scratched over 30 times. Yes, i was there for a good 8 hours. lol. So, when i play against someone and he scratches, i expect him to do it over and over. Sometimes it happenes that way.
Great tips as always! 👍
Glad you like it. Thanks for watching.
Happy New Year Bryan
Happy new year!
Good advice and exactly right. I see these things in league every week. I accidentally caught the edge of another ball and lost the CB in the side. Happens to us all. Minimize the CB travel and be aware of what it’s doing helps. That and like he mentioned try to not setup your own problems!! Don’t just slam into traffic balls.. adjust them but always be aware of what’s happening with both OBs and the CB.
Oh, you’re ‘Americas most common scratch shot’ , I was taught it’s one of the ‘poison positions’ or ‘poison shots’. There’s a few notorious ones but that’s a very common one.
All of your videos are very helpful. Seems as though you’re saying that you use top right/left spin on most reverse banks??
That is correct. Most reverse banks I will shoot with English
k b said it all thanks
Bryan - Incredible guidance as always. I've been binge watching all of your videos lately and was curious about your career outside of pool. You are a gifted communicator and teacher which are skills that typically do not develop in a vacuum. If you don't mind my asking, what field do/did you work in outside of billiards? Did you go to college? Thanks! You're an invaluable asset to the pool world 🎱🌎
Before 2002 I was a vice president and regional manager of investments for PNC BANK. A major part of my duties included training and motivating financial advisors. My mother was an English professor at Penn State, so I was raised around educators. Hustlers on the street and educators at home.
@@FXBilliards Makes sense! I'm not surprised to hear you were in executive leadership. Loving the content!
Good food for thought Bryan. Yes, I have found about every way to scratch that you can think of. It is only a problem if you keep making the same mistakes. Scratches on the are the worst! Playing on a fast 7' table seems to increase my chances of pocketing the .
Thanks for watching Craig.
That table by design the odds are increased for all the balls including the CB ;) faster games meant more quarters. A lot of old Valley tables still have the tax stamp on them. Vending machines :(
Really helpful video Brian. My 2 biggest scratches are the most scratched shot in America and the advance player shot. Always put too much outside English.
Beware of Running English. She is a killer. Thanks for watching.
I am in the 5 %, for I practiced stun shot for years...
Thanks, good info. I have done that side pocket shot many times in past, now as intermediate, I pass it over & look for better shots. Funny I luv that reverse bank too. Only my object ball is closer to the corner pocket on long rail. I never seem to scratch on it. I have also stopped shooting real hard & fast w/ cue ball. Controlling the speed of the cue ball must have some effect on not scratching!!?
Speed can be a factor, but if it needs to be a factor to keep you from scratching then you’ve done something else wrong. Like giving yourself a bad angle, or failing to change the trajectory of the ball with a draw stroke, or simply hitting the shot way too hard.
I just a game tonight on that very side pocket 8 ball scratch!😡
please talk about the scratch on the break.
I’ll put something out Dave
Scratching on the moneyball is tough because I feel like I have no safe options and have to shoot the risky shots anyway. Is it ever a good idea to play safe with one ball left on the table?
3:02 Bryan, You are intuitively great at what you do. Oh you shoot a good game of pool as well. You play school master and pool virtuoso at the highest level. That aint easy! I bet Einstein and Michael Jordon knew their subject even better than you or i. Lol Teaching and pool i NOW know are both art AND science. Few that possess great intuitive ability, teach effectively. I have concluded you're either a v genuinely gifted teacher. Or you sucked at pool when you started.im bet its the latter- No tescher could read the impossible mountains of books required to glean the myriad of screwed upped, scratched on, misshit with the wrong spin a poor choice of object ball to get at the 9 (or 8 or striped.) Pool shots required to teach as you do. PART of your effectiveness is the ability to meaningfully relate to a 9 or a 3 > authentically. I taught 4th grade about as well as i shoot pool. God gave me the ability to recognize greatness in both and to attain greatness in neither. Returned to the game i was good at, knew well, and hated. Enjoying it now, thanks to you, this intriguing and challenging puzzle which i realize i never knew, was not very good at ironically enjoy more than ever knowing ill never master it. Thank you. That is the art of a great teacher.
I truly appreciate you watching and absolutely appreciate your comments. Have a great week.
If you could take one shot to practice that would keep sharp what shot would you practice
I would talk a straight draw show from corner to corner. If my stroke was off, that would exploit it. Thanks for watching.
Are you available for online lessons?

Hey B I know theses elementary shots may sound stupid to great players! Let me ask ya, don’t ya think that some of these shots are good to know an learn from ? I mean if you know how to make hard shit doesn’t it make you better as you progress?
Without question. You should learn what is going on at all levels of the game in order to move up.
At the 9 min mark you were calling it inside English. I’ve always called running English the outside can you explain what makes that inside since right it’s running English
It is inside English and happens to be running English. Inside because of where you’re making the contact on the cue ball. Running English because if it’s relationship to the rail. Good question. Thanks for watching.
Oh No!
More errors on the money ball. 😢
Good ol' Money Ball. Take your time Wild Fire. And have fun!
