SMOOTH CUEING: Start Potting More & Control the Cue Ball Better / Snooker Tutorial for Beginners

Take a close look at top 16 professional snooker players. How do they strike the ball? Of course, the professionals spend 6-7 hours a day on the table, they've had this way of life for many years.

However, there is a hack that top 16 players use all the time when they play - they strike the white ball very smoothly. And non-professionals can adopt this hack too. The movement of the hand should be smooth, without any effort.

In this video I will show you some simple tips on how to make your cue action smooth. Follow my advise in each shot and you will turn my tips into a good habit.

Start your cue action SLOWLY AND SLOWLY accelerate into the white ball. You will strike the ball with much more finesse and your cue action will feel effortless. This will lead to more accuracy, more balls potted and better positional play.

There are two ways of striking the white ball:

- the first one is the jabby cue action which too quick. There is too much pressure in hand when you reach the required speed to strike the cue ball;
- the second type of cue action is very smooth - you reach the required speed slowly - the same way you shift gears in your car.

REMEMBER! There is no shot on the table which requires too much power from the hand, it is all about that smooth cueing. You've got to reach the required speed km by km, by km.

Try it and you will start to play with more finesse and accuracy. You want more tips? Let me know in the comments.

Spent the last 20 yrs or so trying to improve my cue action ie getting through the cue ball, getting more reaction from the cue ball but never saw any improvement, I will try to implement the slower delivery shown in this video, also I'm guilty of gripping the cue to tight and jabbing the shot, fingers crossed I'll update with some improvement re these issues.
