Hi, i was very bad in rest Play, missing very simple shots. After this video, now atleast i don't miss easy shots but also feel comfortable with rest Play. Thank you, really appreciate your hard work and contribution to Snooker.
I have just started playing again after a 45 year break, and although I know what to do, to some extent, I am relearning to play. Practice is the only way to learn the angles and pace of shot, so by watching your brilliant tutorials I hope to do better, as it's mighty frustrating atm !!
Big thankyou for your efforts. They are immensely helpful in progressing through the game. Kindly do explain wether elbow has a role in pull back before delievery or you just pull back using your grip and grip hand!!???
Lots of great advice here. Making sure I cue straight with a rest is something I've been working on, but I realise I've been holding the cue wrong, holding the very end rather than a couple of inches from the end and not sliding the rest into position. On this last point though, sliding the rest in only works if there are no other balls getting in the way. Very often I find that I need to place the rest very carefully to get the right position without fouling by disturbing other balls.
Excellent Steve, as always with your videos. I use the rest and hold the cue exactly as you have shown.....it’s about the only thing I have got right with my game 😂
This video is very helpful to me as my rest game really sucks. Placing the butt more into the fleshy part of the hand is very interesting as I usually have more of a finger grip. Please expand on the stance..as I wasnt clear on which foot if any is on the shotline...Thanks
Can you please make an instructional video on how to play when you don't have enough room with your body to ensure optimal footing, but playing with the extension is also out of the question? So how to aim and thrust well despite the difficult posture.
As much as we need to use the rest, and the amount of people who do it incorrectly, its a real shame this video is one of the less viewed videos on your channel.
Yeah, I went back to the pool hall for the first time in a year and it felt positively unnatural and weird down in shooting position, exactly like it didn't before. And I couldn't pot ANYTHING. I'm going to be starting over on mechanics, apparently. Maybe this time I should learn them PROPERLY. :-)
@@MrJdsenior I’m lucky enough to have a pool table in my garden, I made a significant improvement over lockdown playing but it hasn’t helped at all with snooker because the balls are heavier and the tables bigger..😂
Hi! Can you tell me please how much follow-through should I apply to the shot with the rest? Should I follow-through as I would do on a normal shot or should I follow-through until my arm is straight?
The cue grip where you say to lie in the fleshy part of the hand. I have never heard that before. I always thought there was space between the three fingers, the cue and that fleshy part.
That will be a good tip for you then Dan. That's the way most players grip with the rest. Don't grip with the finger tips, and the cue can easily roll around. Thanks a lot for watching 🙂
Thanks for the tips. (again lol) Could you maybe do a video along the lines of how to self monitor your own progress. I've been listing my high breaks but is this the only real way to monitor it?
@@BartonSnooker thanks for your prompt replied. I truly learn a lot from your sharing. And my game has improving tremandously..... Thank you so much indeed. I've shared your video to my friends... :)
Great tips there Steve,,,been looking at some older vids of your,regarding screw back,,when you show that when giving,,extra power to the screw shot then we can do a lot more with a lot less power,,I noticed when demonstrating this your cue comes off your bridge hand ,can you explain why this happens,when we are told constantly,to keep the cue level with the bed?

Very informative! Thank you!
Great video Steve !😊 Jimmy white and Sean Murphy two of the greatest rest players in the game 😃
Thanks a lot, you very helped me!
Excellent Steve, as always with your videos. I use the rest and hold the cue exactly as you have shown.....it’s about the only thing I have got right with my game 😂
Excellent video. you've really gone Into alot of detail here. I like the style too. Very nice 👌
Thanks Dermot 👍🙂
Great video Steve.
This video is very helpful to me as my rest game really sucks. Placing the butt more into the fleshy part of the hand is very interesting as I usually have more of a finger grip.
Please expand on the stance..as I wasnt clear on which foot if any is on the shotline...Thanks
Doesn't matter with the foot placement as much with the rest. Just get a bit side on, and get comfortable 👍
Just wondering if you have any "practice routines" for rest play that you could suggest - or better still - make a video about?
Can you please make an instructional video on how to play when you don't have enough room with your body to ensure optimal footing, but playing with the extension is also out of the question?
So how to aim and thrust well despite the difficult posture.

Needed this video thanks my rest game is embarrassing
Very helpful. Thank you Steve.......Sal : )
Thanks! Great to help 🙂

good video i'll remember this advice tonight, after a year of lockdown snooker clubs have been closed I was OK with the rest but now im really bad

Good idea for a video. Thank you. I will note this down and do it 👍👍
Saya suka bilyad tempat nya bagus
Your foot stand were different show in video minutes 6.20, it was the video editing problem or you tried to show that different stand was OK?
Yes. I was showing a different stand. The table made the different stand. The shot put the table in my normal standing position.
@@BartonSnooker thanks for your prompt replied. I truly learn a lot from your sharing. And my game has improving tremandously.....
Thank you so much indeed.
I've shared your video to my friends... :)
