Happy to see you back and kinder adore your tutorials and more inform Us 🎱 pool players without having a coach. Guess your tutorials are really playing a vital role in making sure that we have an idea about cueing proper rather than hard cueing. Thanks for your clarity and I am inspired and now have an idea how to play backspin properly. Thanks Sir Webb. 😇🙏
