Many thanks for the videos. They help me better to reduce my mistakes while playing. Even if my English is too bad to always understand everything.

Great video. Helps tons :-) Could you do a video on how to correctly raise the cue arm and how to tuck the shoulder behind the head please?

[dermotshaw]

Gteat video. I usually use the rest as though it is mimicking my bridge hand, so the distance from the cue ball isn't compromised.

A short pull back works great for a normal shot too??

Is there anything different to consider playing with the long rest / cue?

My biggest problem is that almost always when i try a screw shot with rest i end up kicking and jumping the cue ball and im not sure why because myself i think my technique is right

[ALKHN]

Hi, wondering if you could help? I am a half decent player, understand the posture in which you need to stand, delivering the cue straight and to not cue across it in order to pot the object ball, the use of side etc. However 95% of the time when i stand in the correct position and line the shot up and start my cue action, just before delivering the cue i look back at my elbow (hand which is delivering the cue) and realise that by default my elbow is in a bent position (which would mean regardless of my posture and position in which i stand, i am bound to cue across the ball and hence miss the pot). I have not seen any player, professional or amateur that has this problem other then me. Can you shed some light on this matter. As this is affecting my confidence as well as my consistency. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
