      @JamesNewman3204922390 2 года назад +1

      Great video and great drill! Fedor Gorst showed me this drill and a variation that starts with this setup, but he moved both the object ball and cue ball toward the spot (toward the center of the table but still on the head/foot line) by 1 or maybe 2 balls distance. The goal was to pocket the ball without the cue ball touching a rail and no right/left spin on the cue ball. Takes a really good smooth stroke. Are you familiar with that one? I struggle with it and would love to see it demonstrated again.

    • @markevenson987
      @markevenson987 Год назад

      Love your videos. Very easy to understand and remember when I get to the table. One question, the graphic display of the cue tip one the cue ball looks the same on the stop shot and the draw shot. The stroke also looks the same with the cue follow thru. Why is the cue ball stopping or drawing when the mechanics of the stroke and cue placement look the same?

    • @trumanhw
      @trumanhw 3 месяца назад

      GREAT info Niels. Thanks. Exactly what I did to 'warm up' for over a year ... but let myself believe I didn't need to anymore. I should do it again for a while.
      Also helpful: I tested what DISTANCE I could put do a stop shot so that the cue ball spins in place after. It gave me a database of how much spin I could still reliably pocket balls (eliminating all the other variables) and making sure I was absolutely dialed in with my shaft's deflection. Let's you know what you "own."

  • @beercanbrian1880
    @beercanbrian1880 3 года назад +5

    I've been playing pool for many years and every practice session starts with setting up straight in stop shots from a couple feet to table length. I'm looking for a dead stop with no unintended side spin on the cue ball or the cue ball sliding an inch or so left or right. Then I follow and draw these straight in shots. If I miss it's a stroke issue. This drill gets my stroke and hand eye coordination in order. No quick jerk strokes. Smooth back and forward motion with my vision zeroed in on the object ball before pulling the trigger. Any beginner or lower level players reading this and watching this video, take heed. You'll never advance beyond where you are until you've mastered a straight stroke.

  • @raystanczak4277
    @raystanczak4277 3 года назад +5

    Good drill-nice and simple.
    Also, I just want to say-for those who haven’t seen your vid on bank shots-putting a little (very little) outside english on the cue ball when you have to cut the bank shot has been a revelation! Not only have my banks, even full-length banks, become much more reliable, but I’m passing it on to the people I play with (cause I like competition), and their bank game improves immediately!
    Neils, you’re the MAN!

    I’m loving the moments of honesty in these videos. It’s nice to see a world class player admit the multiple takes to get the shot they want on camera. There’s a human element here that other videos miss. Great stuff Niels!
    I don’t have a full size table. I have a portable one I set up every night and can only shoot going 1 direction because of the little room I have. Still though- during the pandemic I’ve been able to improve, and I attribute that to drills like this. I practiced stop, follow, and draw shot drills over the first 6 months of lockdown almost exclusively, and it really improved my stroke.

    A controlled straight shot is the most important shot in pool because it's associated to every single shot. If you can't shoot straight you can't hit your target or apply "art" (draw (screw), English, etc) consistently.

    Shot #3 was my warm up I would use before playing in a competition. It let me know if my stroke was on, or not, and what was needed to be adjusted if it was off. You can't make that shot unless your stroke is pretty much dead on, and perfectly straight. It's a good warm up and practice routine, especially when you don't have a great deal of time to get in stroke before a match.

      It is a straight pool training game. You rack 15 balls and break them. Every level must be achieved 2 times to move up a level.
      Level 1: Beginner - At this level you begin with cue-ball in hand anywhere on the table and you get three misses before your inning is over. After each miss, you start with ball-in-hand anywhere on the table. Your object is to try and pocket all fifteen balls before your third miss. If after 10 racks you average a total score of 120 (4 balls per miss), you can move to Level 2.
      Level 2: Intermediate - Here you begin with cue-ball in hand anywhere on the table and get two misses before your inning is over. Now, your object is to pocket all fifteen balls before your second miss. If after 10 racks you average a total score of 120 (6 balls per miss), you can move to Level 3.
      Level 3: Advanced - As in previous levels, you begin with cue-ball in hand anywhere on the table, but only get one miss before your inning is over. If you miss anytime as you attempt to pocket all 15 balls, your inning is over. If after 10 racks you average a total score of 120 (12 balls per miss), you can graduate to Level 4.
      Level 4: Professional - At this level you begin with ball-in-hand in the kitchen after the break. Like level 3, you only get one miss, but this time your goal is to pocket 20 balls in a row. You might initially be confused as to how you can pocket 20 balls with only 15 on the table. At the professional level, you play through the rack as you would in the game 14.1 Continuous. In other words, after pocketing 14 balls and leaving your cue-ball in such a position that when the 14 balls are re-racked, you can easily pocket the 15th ball and on the same stroke break the rack to continue pocketing balls. If after 10 innings you average a total score of 170 or better, you should be on the tour.
      Note: For all levels, a foul counts as a miss, and if you miss or foul at the same time you pocket a ball, that ball doesn't count towards your score. The ball is respotted.

    Thank you for this video Niels! I used to choke on straight shots and they were always during league plays (APA). I followed your teachings to a tee and in a week (about 100+ shots per session) I was able to consistently pocket it and stop the cue ball with no wiggle or excess movement. This also helped my accuracy in cut shots and elevated my game to a whole new level. The only downside was that since I won a lot of games and my PA (points allowed) and PPM (points per match) rose they raised me 2 ranks in 2 months so from a 3 I became a 5! I'm enjoying the challenge against new and better opponents though so thanks again!!!

    Thank you so much for doing these videos. The drills are very simplistic and don't take much time to setup. The Few seconds to setup and get rolling is so awesome, allowing you to do this drill for 10 minutes or an hour and feel like you accomplished something towards bettering your performance skills. P.S. Do a break video, for 8, 9, and 10 ball. Would like to know how you approach the most important shot in the game.

    If you are a novice, do the drill aiming to the side pocket from the side, then to the corner from the opposite side pocket. What matters is the distance in diamonds and how clean, without spin it follows, stops or draws.

I've been thinking how to test an unknown pool table for different cloth conditions, including cushions, because I don't own my own table, and during a week I play on a couple different tables. That three rail kick from corner pocket to corner pocket on the same short side is a good one.

    Your video on stance really helped, Niels.
    After the year out due to lockdown, I had forgotten so much of what I had learned before (I was really getting somewhere, playing for three teams in snooker and pool leagues and my break building was getting there too - 52!) but on returning to the baize it's felt like starting all over again - aaarrgghh!
    It's a hard game.....
    The importance of stance cannot be overstated.

    Awesome Niels 👍🏻, perfect timing!
    I just posted a RUclips video that is lame compared to yours (lol) on what I felt was the single best stroke drill for developing an accurate stroke.
    My friend is new to the game and just got his new table so I made my short video clip for him. I’m now going to forward your drill also as yours is much better covering this topic.
    Your latest video is great. I really like your approach to helping us become better pool players. I’m sure my friend will appreciate this drill even more.
    Myself, when I started performing it, it revealed my flaws right away. I was able to successfully recognize then correct them rather quickly.
    This is the best stroke drill (hands down) imo, your video will help many a player develop a solid stroke.
    Thank you Niels!
