    I'm from the U.S. and have been studying very hard for two years learning "American" pocket pool, 8 and 9 ball. There are one or two folks here on YTube that I have learned lots from (Dr. Dave, Tor Lowry and Sharivari) but I swear I learn many of the most important things from the likes of you and Barry Stark. You two are wonderful! Thank you so much. I've only been playing two years and I have quickly come to believe that I should move to Britain and take up Snooker instead! Psycholgically and socially I would fit in much better with the snooker crowd!

      We also have quite a few tables in Australia, but (sadly) we don't have the professional circuit that the Brits have. Not that I'm of that standard though, but for the amateur, there's lots of fun to be had. ✌️🇦🇺

      @@castleanthrax1833 Canada was mostly like that with lots of snooker tables, but the American pool influence (being so close) has taken over and kind of run snooker out of town.

    One of the better videos out there on snooker. Massively helpful and true to every bit. Specially the last point. I was one of those who believed long pots to be the one which needed to be hit hard only to realise how wrong I was. I wish I had seen something like this earlier in my life. I would have been much better of a player but kudos to you. This video is undoubtedly helpful and I would recommend it to beginners. This would definitely save years of grinding and hard work. Trust me. :)

    Hi and thanks for another great video I've learnt a lot from you,
    I've got a question, you said hold the cue a bit loose and play soft but I saw the pro players like O' Sullivan and Neil Robinson when they go for screw back shots their cue get bend by their chin if you could make a video about that that'll be great thanks

    Thank you very much for this video! I also made the same mistake by putting my hand too close to the cue ball. The last couple of weeks, I have put more distance between hand and cue ball and got a lot more action from the cue ball. Also noticed that my cue action in general has gotten a lot better.

    Mark allen and steve Davis are two players i could think of that have a short bridge not too far away frim cue ball

    • @BartonSnooker
      @BartonSnooker  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi. Both would be in the acceptable range actually. Anywhere from 9" to 13" from the cue-ball as a rough guide (although I think 13" is too far).
      Most professionals will be somewhere like 10" to 11.5".
      Don't try to copy an odd exception to the rule. Copy what MOST players do. Ronnie, Selby, Ding, Robertson, Judd. All have a bridge length of around 10" to 11.5".

    • @ericshaun6078
      @ericshaun6078 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mark Allen definitely. John Higgins is a bit closer than most, but can also do it very long like when he's cueing through his fingers on the cushion.

  • @steveinturre

  • @mihaU1
    @mihaU1 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I've recently started my journey with snooker and just found this video. You're totally on point with the aspect of not hitting balls too hard. During my first time of being behind the snooker table, I was surprised of how little power you actually need to pot a ball. I was sure that due to the huge size of the table, you need to take power shots all the time!
