    Thanks! This explanation makes t feel more accessible, less like “math”. If you ever do a follow-up, I too would be interested to know how you deal with balls off the rail. I whiff on those a lot, and I’m thinking there must be a simple way to visualize the line by predicting the 2nd-rail contact point.

  • @JeffKernsTheArtist
    @JeffKernsTheArtist 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thank you so much! I almost didn't watch this because I thought it was another system where you add and subtract things. I am a very visual person and I find it extremely difficult to stop and do even simple math while shooting pool! 😂 the object ball being zero and counting up from there should work for me.

    The thing I will have to remember is that when you are counting from the object ball, you don't count the half diamonds but you do on first rail you hit.

    • @metou3072
      @metou3072 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      You go from where the back of your cue stick is over the diamond and you shoot through the diamond... Meaning you shoot the cue ball like your actually trying to hit the diamond with the cue ball... Not the spot on the rail in front of it..

    • @CODlogist
      @CODlogist 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, you use the corresponding diamond tracks, not the location of the cue ball acroos the diamonds

    • @michaelgray2013
      @michaelgray2013 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      If you are asking about object balls not near the rail. You need to parallel shift your cue towards the second rail which will allow you to see the second rail track line. More precisely use the cue on the track line to the first rail, 1/2 diameter of the cue ball off the rail contact point, parallel shift towards the second rail which will give you the second rail contact point and the track line. If the object ball is on that line then you should hit it.
      Keep in mind that spin plays a important role in this system. Less spin moves the cue ball away from you and more spin moves the cue towards you.
      Spend several weeks working on the basic 2 rail diamond to corner pocket and diamond to diamond kicks which will give you a good but basic understanding of the tracks lines. Then start working on hitting balls away from the rail. You will start to see the track lines relative to the object ball and split the difference between lines that the object ball doesn’t land on.

    I noticed that when you shot the 5, you didn't have your cue pointed out 'from' the five, but in a diagonal from the side 5 to the end 5 spot. Cue placement is critical as much as cye ball position. This is a great video.
    Also, cue ball placement, for practice, is not at the side diamond, it is forward of it.

  • @LaCaroratcha
    @LaCaroratcha หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is really cool and perfectly explained. The only thing I am missing: what if the object ball is not close to the rail but more in the centre of the table? how do I count then? and second thing: can you also do a video where you explain a kicking system, where you hit the long rail first? 🙂

    This is the best explanation of the diamond system I have seen, thank you. However I tried every shot you did in the video, and it is not working on my table. I have to go two diamonds from the diamond the system says I should use. I can't figure out why it's not working right for me. Do you have any suggestions. My table is 7' long, it is exactly twice as long as it is wide. I want to use this system, but for whatever reason it doesn't seem to work for me

    • @stevenwood3649
      @stevenwood3649 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you're coming up short, then you might be hitting too hard. 2 diamonds is a LONG way off, so your rails might also be wore out.

  • @CosplayZine
    @CosplayZine 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Awesome system. Imo since you are using right English for the unnatural angle then it would make sense to use outside/left English when you are further in because it would create the opposite effect. It appears that was your adjustment as well.

  • @diathekedriven
    @diathekedriven 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Interesting, and well explained. Thanks for all the tips. One comment though, when you're hitting the short rail (at the balls you've set up on the diamonds) it looks like you're hitting before each ball or diamond. For example, the 7 ball that you had a few attempts at, it looks like you're hitting much closer to the 8 on the short rail than the 7. Maybe it's just the camera angle from where we see?...

    • @danielbass1234
      @danielbass1234 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's because of the angle your shooting from

    • @stevenwood3649
      @stevenwood3649 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're aiming at the diamond, not the spot where the diamond meets the rail. If you're coming in at a shallow angle, it is going to look like you're hitting way to the side of the diamond, but from the shot line, you're going straight at the diamond.

  • @garybkatz
    @garybkatz 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    If the object ball isn't near the rail, how would you use this system to predict the path of the cue ball through the object ball? I'm guessing you'd eyeball a close cue ball path and use your cue to predict if said path takes the cue ball into the target, and make little adjustments if it doesn't? Thanks.

  • @MyTaco99
    @MyTaco99 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Question: The last 2rail kick with the 1ball on the short rail, starts at zero, then you counted the pocket as 1diamond, then 2,3,4&5 diamonds up the long rail to the CB. I've always counted the pocket as 2diamonds. One diamond for the short rail & the 2nd diamond for the long rail. I love this system, but I've never seen the pocket counted as 1diamond. Have I been wrong this whole time?
    Great video & explanation. 😎

      @JacksHardenedLiver I kind of worked it out on the pool hall I play at. Some tables are Brunswicks and some are Diamonds. I tried at another place also. For me I needed about 1.5 - 2 tips of running English and hit about medium speed. But once the first angle becomes less steep I need less English.

    @patricktalbert5279 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    In a little confused why The cue ball is actually a diamond ahead of where you’re saying. for instance, when you shoot at #3 the cue ball actually by the side pocket but your shaft is going over the third diamond - So is it where the shaft goes towards the cue ball or is it where the cue ball sits?

    • @jcbones3098
      @jcbones3098 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      In the example you are talking about the cue ball has to be in line with the 3rd diamond on the long rail and with where he had the 3 ball on the short rail. So yes the cue ball will start somewhere in front of the side pocket.

    !!==== Hi Darren, this does not work when both cue ball and oject ball is near the bottom rail (bottom of the screen where you have the balls 1-9). Can you tell us what adjustments you make for those type of shots? ====!!

    • @intercrew99
      @intercrew99 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For example, if cb is at diamond 2 (2nd diamond from the bottom of the screen) and object ball is on diamond 4 (middle pocket), it doesn't work that well. or especially when cue ball is at diamond 1 (on long rail, bottom of screen next to 9 ball) and object ball is at diamond 3 (just before the middle pocket). it doesn't work that well. do you use a different kicking system? or make adjustments? for me, whenever i try to make an adjustment, the same adjustment doesn't work when cb and ob move to different points on bottom half of the table (near bottom screen). i tried to aim 1/2 diamond less or add extra spin but then if the spin is too much and holds then it bounces wide on 2nd rail. then finally I find the adjustment that works, and then i test it again by moving ob one diamond away or cb one diamond closer to bottom of screen) and the adjustment is totally off.

  • @anotherOneMore7
    @anotherOneMore7 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    So it looks like when you count from the object ball, even when it's on the short rail, you count one per diamond, not one per half diamond
