I watch your videos so often my fiancée comes in and says, “Oh cool, Bryan has a new video?” 😂 Great stuff as always, B. 🤟
Awesome! Thank you!
As a wife, she'll have a different response.
Speed control and lack of cue ball control is why I have lost me many games. Ty for the video.
Your views mean a lot to me. Thanks for your comments.
Thanks for putting these videos out here.
I'm not a terrible player, but I doubt I'm in the 20% you talk about. I believe I've improved a little already, just by watching a few of your lessons.
I'll continue to watch, and "amaze my friends"!! Lol!!
Thank you again!! Sure wouldn't want to run into you on a table!! 😅
Thanks Bryan I'm still working on getting a good stroke And I can see where this goes hand-in-hand with that
Knowing that you are putting in the work tells me that your game will only get better and better. Thank you for watching and thanks for your comments.
Modifying speed control on different tables is a skill that needs to be learned on its own. Your tip of learning to go "through" and think about coming off the rai like you've said in a lot of videos have in many situations has helped me with adjusting to tables a bunch!
I've been trying different clothes and rails on different tables and it's absolutely amazing the differences.
A bar box with super slow cheap cloth to as fast as touring edition or Simonis 760. Ball control is so very different.
Your views mean a lot to me. As always thanks for watching. And thanks for your comments.
There's a good side pocket drill for this too. You place the balls in a semi circle out from and around the side pocket.
Start with five balls then work your way up.
Well done. Your ability to put into words the action you are teaching is awesome.
I appreciate that!
"All You Have to Do..." I'll remember that phrase. Plus, I like the short draw shot drill. WF!🔥
Good to see you WF be safe.
Your lessons rule! Thanks Brian!
My pleasure!
Bryan, another excellent episode, watched on Monday morning, just before my practice session. Thank you for your time, effort and expertise. Your teaching style is relaxed and appropriate for your audience. Looking forward to next weeks lesson!
Very welcome! Thanks for your comments Mark
Always appreciate your videos.
I’m hoping to see a video on kicking from the rail into the OB and making the OB into a pocket. Seems very little has been done on the subject. Any chance you can produce one Bryan? Much appreciate you. 🎱👍
I’ll look into it I might be able to make some thing for you. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for explaining this. It really helps
Glad it was helpful!
Brian, Many thanks for your instruction. Had my first break and run (8-ball) in a friendly match yesterday! It was NOT an easy rack to run but I was able to use several tips and strategies,
thank you!
Fantastic! Thanks for watching
This video was one of the most important and awesome because I'm always using speed control in playing.
The way you explained the thin shots and the resulting increased speed of the cue ball vs. a full hit on the cue ball really made me see controlling cue ball speed in a whole new way.
It's these small gems of knowledge that you introduce that keeps me watching your videos, along with your straight forward easy manner of speaking. 👍
Thanks for your comments
I’ve been working on speed control and also strategies on how I will run out (thanks to one of your last videos) and have been putting them together and it’s making me much better I must say. I’m actually understanding how to run out more. These extra tips on speed control is just what I need 😈. Thanks B See you on the next episode.
I appreciate you taking the time to tune in.
I definitely need better speed control on my draw shots. Sometimes I think my draw is just wild.
Thank you for the useful tips much appreciated 👍 I'm still fairly new to play 8 ball (uk) I played yesterday with some mates and managed to clear up in 3 visits without him potting any balls in was very happy keep up the good work your helping so many people out like myself 👊
Glad to help
Great lesson Bryan. I always catch myself hitting thin shots to hard and trying to hit the clusters to hard as well.
Going to watch this one more than once. Thank you brother for helping me get better!
Good stuff. Thanks for watching Rick.
First. Love the Show!
Boom! Thanks for watching
@@FXBilliards You betcha. Good stuff B!
The last example with the 4 and 5 ball is where "directly inline" with next ball clicked... in that second example with 4 ans 5 ball, I would have tried to use the same shot as first example (high left), but that would mean the cue ball would move perpendicular to the line of the next shot... thus requiring way more precision to stop where needed. Thank you so much for these visual aids, great videos as always.
I’m glad to help. Thanks for your comments and thanks for watching
Thanks again for another clear and concise video.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Brian! Always helpful as always!
My pleasure!
another great video thanks B
Glad you enjoyed it. I appreciate you watching
Great Advice Thanks Brian
My pleasure!!
Great video Brian Great Advice
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Bryan. Valuable content as usual and great reminder and it’s always the subtle overlooked info that makes the big difference
My pleasure!
Great tips! Thanks
You bet!
So ive been working for several years to improve as a pool player and am finally to a place where my technique and shot making abilities are straight and set. Im beginning to focus more on strategy and would like to ask you if you could do a video on making the other guys balls on purpose. This is a useful strategy that i see others using but am having a hard time grasping. When and where is this useful and how do I recognize an occasion in which i can use this to my benefit. Thanks, man. Youre my favorite pool guru.
I’ll try to put something together for you thanks for the recommendation
Hey Bryan - Great topic. Something I have been spending more time on lately because, as you said, you (and I have) lost games because of poor speed control. I am setting up situations and experimenting with different speeds and point of contact on the cue ball. It is definitely helping. A couple of weeks ago I went to Vegas with my team for the APA 8-Ball Championships. They use 7 foot tables. I play on 9 foot tables in league and 8 foot at home. Never played on 7 foot. But I had been practicing speed control more on my 8 foot and it helped. Especially those pocket hangers with ball in hand to then get on the 8 ball. The more I play and see improvement, the more interesting and challenging this game is. By the way, I may be contacting you for a couple more lessons. Hope you still do video. Take care. Pete D in NC.
My buddy Pete - good to hear from you. Have a great day and reach out to me if you need anything - as always.
thank you!!
You're welcome!
Thank you ....a awesome video 😊 Fx Billiard
Our pleasure!
Good video, thanks Bryan 👍 I've just recently started paying attention to these things, my brain is full of good pool information from you, but I generally don't think about it when I should. I guess it's all experience, experience, and more experience on the table until you don't think about things anymore, they're just part of your game. I'm starting to get the "small draw" shots in my game, in my league I mostly see the big draw, nothing in between.
Thanks for watching and thanks for sharing your comments
I like it!!! :) Be Safe
Thank you very much and thanks for watching
It's frustrating at a tournament that has inconsistent speed from table to table, it's hard adjusting. Just as bad is when there are some tables with areas of dead rail. We always play on Valleys, wish they had Diamonds.
Fx rocks
I appreciate you taking the time to tune in. Thanks
At (14:12) in the video I noticed that you twist your grim hand to the right on your draw shot. This is something that both "Earl Strickland" and "Johnny Archer" also do.
Tell us, the faithful followers, why you guys "Twist". Cheers Mate..
It is more body-English than anything else. A shot I might shoot with low right and my mind trying to telekinetically send the Cue Ball to a spot on the table. I don’t recommend it, - but the reality is the ball is already gone when we twist like that.
Great video! Also important not to underhit cluster break up shots. I've rolled into them and had my cue ball nestle into the cluster instead of splitting it. More of a problem on a shot with very little angle or if you are trying to do it with pure draw which you under follow through, though.
Thanks for watching and thanks for your comments
One of the most important issues... explained in under 15 mins, but a lifetime to master.
Your views mean a lot to me.
I'm trying to figure out how to shoot with English and cut with out over cutting. I tend to over cut if I try to use English but get the cue ball where I want. Or I make the shot using basic center shot and the right angle, but don't get the cue ball where I want. I need to do both and I'm leveled up lol. It will change my game tremendously.
thanks
Welcome
Trying to get on the 11 ball, shooting it the same way that you did… I STILL would have ended up behind the 4 ball!! 😂
That’s JUST the rolls I get!!
Would it be possible to make the 15 & come out on the OTHER side of the 11 ball so ending up behind the 4 ball isn’t a problem? If you have luck like I do, that would be a better option. 💯
Hi Brian I have been working on my speed by putting the 1ball on the spot shoot it in and put the two ball on the spot and shoot it from where the cue ball was and then going through the whole 15 balls without missing. I have done it a couple of times it's pretty difficult especially when you get to the last balls.
It sounds like you are moving along well. Thank you for watching and thank you for your comments.
I would like to know more about dealing with sharking. Everyone knows it's not allowed, but it happens. Even if they don't mean too. I need to deal with that.... better. I would love to hear your thoughts on a stronger mental game.
I have an entire 21 video masterclass series on the mental game. You can go to NWQPOOL.com. It’s very inexpensive. You should check it out. and I have a whole section on sharking.
The most annoying shot is cutting into the corner and the side pockets become massive. I scratch on this shot more than any other shot
The fact that you’re aware of it is half the battle. Thanks for watching.
We should just stop calling them rails and just call them “rejectors”
Let’s see if he catches on. Thanks for watching.
thanks
No problem
