      May be your thought process is different which destroys your focus.
      Treat every shot the same with the same pre shot routine. You make shots that nobody expect, cuz you are focused with out any expectation. Try to feel the shot before .

      You have to have an all round game,so nothing can stop your mental flow.
      Like he say's he spotted this option 2 shots back,he has already started the process of the finished article.
      In other words he has already started preparing mentally for the shot,good players are constantly doing this,and not just at big decision shots.
      In a way you are willing things to go your way,you are what you think!

    In my experience, the first shot is by far the hardest to achieve in first attempt. the masse shot would be the 2nd and the "easiest" to make is the 4 cushion shot. What makes this runout unbelievable is that he executed those shots in the same rack in a tournament. That was such a show of perfect technic and iron nerves.

    • @RByrne
      @RByrne 2 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Yeah I'd have to agree. For me though the massé is the easiest then the 4rail. I think the first one he had planned the Carom and the cue ball coming back was a lil extra chance. He's an amazing player, at snooker too. I think he's retired from tournaments now though, and just plays cash games(I assume).

      @@da324"I've seen much better shots" means nothing. To set himself up for a chance at the shot, not only knowing the shot was possible despite the many balls on the table, is what elevates this shot. You have probably never played a cue sport in your life, or if you have, you don't understand the level of talent, dedication, knowledge, and composure required to be only 5% of what Chris Melling did here.

      I know I will probably get plenty of stick for this but despite it visually being a great looking shot, it really wasn't that difficult.
      Half of the battle is just spotting it and so Chris deserves credit for that and then leaving the cue ball lined up straight on the shot after potting the ball before. Although what enhances the visual look of the shot is the number of other balls on the table but if the pathway is clear anyway, then it's just a case of hitting it straight and hard enough to comes off of the four cushions and have the speed to reach the pocket.
      If you set the same shot up but with just the cue ball and objected ball on the table and removed every other ball and played it, it will still visually look a nice trick shot but nothing like it does with all of the other balls still on the table.

      2) position your dominant eye right over the cue, so that what you see is what you get.

As always Chris is great in the interview and he really explains to help us mortals try to get even an idea of how he does it… The only pocket it went into and somehow he got it there. I hope it boosted your sponsorship Chris because you are next level. Incredible mind for the game - like Alex Higgins, and perfect execution.

      He was definitely impressed by the shot; he is a very decent player himself :)
      The main thing with the shot is actually seeing it, any other player would have thought of a safety move i think.

    That 4 cusion shot is not spectacular when the table is clear but with so much traffic there, pressure and everything, it's out of the world and one of the finest shots ever..that masse shot was remarkable although the 2 ball was tied to cusion but the distance and traffic made it ultra hard..and for the first shot, that was simply a great judgment from one of the best players in the world. Period.
