Thanks Brian for this very important lesson, I live in Lusaka, Zambia and there is no one teaching pool here, but with your videos am enjoying the game more and now I face people that I could only admire on the table.
I am glad to help. And thank you for your comments and support for the channel from the Mother Land. Be safe my friend.
Lol, you don't look a day over 47.
Thanks for the great videos man, I frigging love them
I tapped the thumbs up 👍 button with top right English to feed the algorithm monsters.
Thanks.
Thanks
Hey I'm 75 years old and have been playing pool for 63 years and staying with all of the new technology. Hey I'm not anywhere as good as I was, maybe it's my age. Well guess what some of my game has come back I'm running tables again, and had a 50 ball run in 14.1. Went back to the basics, all of the way back. I put an 85 ¢ crushed Lepro tip on my Revo and Master chalk. Squirt and skids were only invented when we started using them G%!!#& layered tips and that funny $$$ chalk. Thanks Brian
"Severe cut brings you closer to scratching " Another nugget of knowledge I will also try to use this to keep me from scratching thanks again brian
The 5 must have pool shoots series is one of my go to videos, I watch at lease 2 before I head the pool hall...And maybe one of the mistakes everyone makes videos. My biggest take away today would be, "To always look at the shot first". I find myself forgetting that sometimes when everything is like running on autopilot.
Thanks for watching and thanks for your comments Stephen. Im glad those videos have help you.
Not only got pool lessons from your videos but also I got free entertainment from your jokes. You are such a funny and humble man. Thanks, Brian.
Thank you very much for your comments and thanks for watching the channel
Once again excellent teaching. Btw, it was the “5 must have shots” that led me to your channel
Thanks. I may put out some more of those along with my other videos. Thanks for the feedback
FX always on point. Just won my first tournament, these shots as well as a few others that FX preaches brought it home for me. Thanks Coach B.
Congratulations anything I can do to help- that’s what I’m here for my friend.
I like your advice about being professional at the table; when you miss go and sit down, don't upset yourself and expose anything to your opponent....it has helped me, thank you....
Man, Bryan, you’re upping your game in these recent videos. I love how you give “real world” advice; stuff that actually comes up in a game, rather than just recommending to do certain drills. It makes it easier for me to learn because I don’t get as frustrated practicing this way. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you and enjoy the holidays
Here in 🇿🇦 since we lack in terms of getting our own pool coaches but with your video tutorials it has played vital role in terms of improving my pool game. I so wish God can bless you for assisting Us strangers out here... Thanks Sir. 😇🙏
First! U r table looks great B! Great video. Very informative and can really help the masses!
Thanks I really love the new table.
As always I pick up something I missed the first time. Thank you you have helped me.
Hey Brian.... Haven't been here in s while but as usual your content is always very realistic
Welcome back!
I have to say, out of all the CZcams pool instructors I watch your scenarios and advice are usually much more relatable to a player of my skill level. I'm an APA 5. Hoping to go up one day. I owe my thanks.
I really appreciate that. Thank you.
Another great video Brian. Hope you have a great holiday! By the way, my Ikon4-5 with Revo 12.4 shaft arrived and I got out to play with it a couple nights this week. I'm blown away by it. The quality and the feel are just second to none. My buddy I usually play with played a couple racks with it and by the end of the night was saying he might need to get himself one soon haha. Hoping to add the BK Rush and Air Rush in a month or so to complete the set and roll with that for many years. Thanks for all your advice!
Congratulations on your new cue Bob. And thanks for watching the channel.
Nice shooting! You do make it look easy! Thanks for the lesson
Thanks Nick. Enjoy the holidays.
Excellent video B. Would love to see more videos like that on a few different angles and they definitely require a high level of skill, and speed control. Maby even some 2 Rail Bank/Kick shots thanks for everything you do for us
You got it Trevor. Thanks
Thanks big guy for the lessons. They work really well
Glad you like them!
A Must Practice Drill!!!!
Great lesson! I’ll be watching this one a few times. Thanks!
I make these shots look too easy is an understatement. :) Another great video.
Thanks again!
I like referencing the table for angles, corner to side being 45 degrees and corner to 7th diamond on opposite rail is 30 degrees(1/2 ball hit)
Thank you Bryan
Great video B! I beat my buddy that normally hands me my ass last night with almost the exact same angle, placement and length on the 8 ball!
I stayed calm, only thought about my leave for my next shot then pretended the 8 was the 6 ball. I left him with 5 balls on the table once and 4 the second time I beat him! I won 2 out of 6 games with him but those 2 wins felt AMAZING!!
Thank you for taking time to teach us.....Shine On My Friend!!
Outstanding! Thanks for sharing.
This is such an important shot and one I practice every time I get a chance. It can really make a big difference in your position play. Once you get the hang of it, especially the running english shot, it becomes fairly easy to get almost anywhere. The difficult part of this shot is the inside english as you mentioned. Yes, you make it look really easy, but if a guy/gal works on this shot for a few weeks they can become pretty proficient at it.
I also practice versions of this shot with no running english, but instead use different levels of center on the cue ball. Learning those shots can also help you get to many places, just like running english, but you don't have to worry about deflection or spin induced throw. Real world videos like this are such a big help to many of us.
Another priceless video. I started working on these shots more when I started to play more competitive 9-ball. stress in completing tough runs when having to work the table back and forth got a ton easier. I'll be sharing this with my team - thanks again Bryan.
Thanks Bill happy new year
Absolutely Love It!!! Tremendous video B!!! This should serve loads to those who want to improve but it does require practice. And you are absolutely right - gotta make the shot from both sides! but with near the same result. We have a tendency of cutting better to one side than the other, it's comfort ... many times we'll hit the cue-ball differently, LEFT vs RIGHT - Bottom vs Top. Wishing you and yours (and all of community) the Bestest Christmas Ever --- Make memories my friends! Be Safe
EXCELLENT JOB BRIAN/ ALWAYS INFORMATIVE
Thanks again!
Great videos
Glad you like them! Thank you
As a guy that's also played "around" 30 years, I guessed what shot you were talking about before watching.
It's very common and versatile.
You put out good content, man. I appreciate the humility you bring. As my parents taught me, there's a fine line between confidence and cockiness. You have to be confident to succeed, just don't let it go to your head. 👍
Happy holidays!
Thank you very much for watching and thanks for your comments
Hey, Hey. I'm first today. Thanks for the lesson. You always have good real world situations that make a person a better player. Keep up the good work. Have a Merry Christmas with your family.
Hey, thanks Steve - Merry Christmas to you and your family. Be safe.
Fantastic info Bryan. The tip on speed for different positions is gold. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas and thank you for your comments.
As always well done Brian always enjoy watching you an your analogy.
Much appreciated. Have a great week Tom and thats for your support of the channel.
Thank you so much for these videos. You have literally given videos on the things I wonder the most about. Thank you again.
Glad you like them!
Thank you Mr. Mitchell. You have improved my game and made it more enjoyable.
And thank you sir
Thanks Brian
Great info as usual! I’ll be practicing this a lot! Thanks you, sir!
Thanks
@@FXBilliards You're in Chicago, right? Do you take on new students? If I were to come there, could we schedule coaching sessions each of the days I'm there? I'm playing 9 ball as a 7, and 8 ball as a 6 currently, but want to really up my game.
Definitely another one to practice for the shot bag, thanks!
Thanks again for watching
Very good video B. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Same to you! Thank you
Another great video
This is quite powerful! Thanks Bryan. I'm headed to the table to work on this. Great way to learn english, throw adjustment, speed control, aiming, all in one shot... Genius!!!!
Your tip about using the same spot for English so you can keep it simpler to get consistent has helped me quite a bit as too.
This is such a great, no BS, pool channel.
Great to have you around -your comments are always nice and I do appreciate you being part of the pool community
@@FXBilliards I really appreciate that you've noticed! Thank you!
I have spent at least 6 hours on this so far. Those angles are definitely not as easy as you make them look lol!
Nice video Bryan!!! As usual, very helpful getting around the table
Thanks brother Scott.
Ty for everything
Great teaching keep the vids coming
More to come!
This is exactly what I needed! Thanks!
You're welcome!

Very Cool ,Thank You Much Again !
Thank you, David
Brain is the truth ! 💯
Thank you very much for watching. Happy new year.
Good one! you are making us more aware!.. you can't beat experience👍🎱🇳🇿
Thanks
I play 8 ball pool in the uk. Slightly different, but some great advice here. I’m a bit behind you in terms of knowledge, but not too far, and am hoping to reach your kind of level in the next few years. My cueing and stance, potting accuracy are all good, I just need to master the side spin. Appreciate your videos, and will be watching more. Have noticed you reply to every comment, what a great work ethic, and a class act, much respect and all the best with your channel
Nice to have you onboard Pete and thank you very much for your comments - I’m glad to help with your game
Thanks!
And I forgot to mention.....got my viking yesterday and beat my buddy with brand new stick. It blows the used mcdermott I had away. Love the feel and balance it feels...."right"
Nice - Always great getting a new cue. Enjoy it!
Thanks you I watch your Vedic on your favorite shots l got amazing position thanks agai
Thanks again for watching Albert
Nice video. Just subscribed 👍👍
Thanks for the sub!
The videos you put out are by far my favorite, thanks. Btw where did you hustle when you were younger?
Zounds on chestnut street and the cue and cushions- Philly center city.
Another great lesson B, looking forward to are zoom lesson, merry Xmas!!!!
Thank you Michael. I got your email and I will try to call you within the next 24 hours to set things up.
No worries B, busy time of year, thx
thank you!!!
Thanks for watching. Nice to have you here. Enjoy the holidays.
Good job
Thank you sir
Brian, Really appreciate your lessons. Great explanation on what to expect from the cue ball. after not playing for 40 years, trying to get a game back has been tough but your videos along with some one one lessons, I am starting to pocket a few balls in a row. Just missed an 8 ball runout because i over ran the 8 ball. Maybe I can get into some league play without letting everyone down, Myself included
Glad to help and thank you very much
Knowlegde is power experience is invaluable..
Thanks for watching-
The thinner the action the faster the CB. This can get down to so thin the CB is barely effected too tho so you need to practice all the tangent lines. Personally I like center side ball without the top spin too..the CB will rocket around with side spin too
Awesome
Thanks Denny
Great video. You always explain your shots so well. Where are you located? Do you give lessons?
Yes I do! I do individual lessons in Norristown Pennsylvania. You can get more information at the bottom of the homepage@fxbilliards.com.
Danke!
Thank you very much for your support of the channel.
Very good 👍🏿. David Shelton taught me this drill as a part of an impromptu free pool lesson (after he kicked my azz). A part of my warm up routine now.
Good stuff!
Great video Bryan. Around the 4 minute mark of the video you said we had to develop a feel for the angle but you actually gave us that information 2 years ago with the intro to 2 rails kicks with the Diamond System. You instinctively have the tangent line go through diamond "5" on the short rail to hit the second diamond on the long rail. If you moved that cluster up 2 diamonds toward the side pocket then you want the tangent line to go through diamond 3 on the short rail with running english. Sorry if I confused everyone
Jon - you would be the one to remember a 2 year old video. LOL Thanks for your comments.
@@FXBilliards Bryan, there is no expiration date on good information :). All of your videos are a great source of information...even the ones from 2 years ago.
Hello Brian. I live in East Central Kansas. I really enjoy videos. Keep up the program. I practice about every other day for 3-4 hours. How do I purchase a DVD so I can watch while at the pool table area.
You can go to NWQPOOL.com for our master class and watch it on a phone laptop iPad etc.
First of all, thank you for your content, it`s brilliant. I have got a question about your stroke at 5:04. You moved your cue quite a lot during/after the contact with cue ball to the left side of shooting line. Is it just your way how to deliver the cue or is it something what you would recomend to your student?
i apologize for my english, hope you understand.
Thank you for your answer.
The cue simply deflected off of the ball but it was already gone. Not my best form.
Great video as alway Brian. I’m curious, how do you the Arcadia cloth? I am deciding between this and Simonis for my new table. Thanks in advance!
First. a disclaimer. Predator gives me free cloth: That said, I think it is better than Simonis in that it is faster than 860 HR. It has. not shown much wear and I put tons of hours on it, with jumps, masse shots etc and it has held up very well. I have the Reserve cloth which cost a little more and only comes in one color but I would bet that all of them are great.
@@FXBilliards thanks so much for the quick reply! I completely understand with the disclaimer, but I’ve watch your videos long enough to know that you aren’t going to steer me in the wrong direction. I will likely get this and try it for myself!
A lot of those shots can be done with high and low English or you don't have to account for a squirt deflection throw Etc. Sometimes you have to spin it. But if you watch the pros they only do it when they need to with a few exceptions
I hope it didn't sound like I was knocking your video. I really wasn't I love your Channel. I know a lot of the stuff because I've played pool for 60 years but it's helpful to be reminded. And no one knows everything and can't learn from someone else. Unless you're talking about the aliens like Reyes anyway thanks for your time putting up these videos they're helping a lot of people. If I would have had something like this when I was a young man I would have learned much quicker and not developed a lot of bad habits I had to break later on. Thanks a lot
You are completely right
When I watched this video I thought the same thing, this sort of thing is only helpful if the shot absolutely needs left or right spin to get back in line.
Hey Bryan whats different from the masterclass you have in pool on your website than from your youtube videos?
NWQ is made up of 80 videos in an encyclopedia type format. You can pick and chose the subjects you need and the videos are more focused on a very specific subject, shot or strategy.
That's an awesome drill. Do you ever shoot those with low English?
You could absolutely use any type of English and alter where you go on the table. Thank you very much for watching.
Good reminder… low deflection does not mean NO deflection.
thanks for watching Bob
Ya us 9 ball players love that 45 degree cut going out of the corner shot. And it always feels more natural to use the spin that's opposite to what hand you are. Like you I'll spin the ball anyway I need to but I do like right hand English the best. I'm left handed btw. I think that mentality it's just easier to visualize because the ball is coming back across your vision zone. I've always said that us rotation players like more angle than 8 ball players. In fact I actually prefer more angle than the shots your showing because you don't have to work the cue much to move around the table. As I've gotten older I tend to just love to foat the cue ball to position. Even though I have a lot of cue power. Amping up all the time reduces the number of run outs you'll get. Plus taking thinner cuts means you don't have to use as much side spin. They just become speed control shots. Soft speed control shots. When I watch the top players in the world I've been seeing this trend more and more. Plus I tend to use parts of the pocket to more my cue ball. If I need to travel more I'll hit the thin side of the Pocket. If I need to kill the cue I'll hit the thick side of the pocket
Great points Jason, Thank you.
Can u stroke that shot with inside English and get that closet rail before the side pocket . U can decrease the angle a little to make it possible.
Awesome Lesson Brian as always. Question about the shot at 11:08 You said that would need to hit 3 rails to get into position for the 8, wouldn't it be easier to shoot it with top left hit 1or 2 rails and have position for the 8?
You could. If possible, I’d like the cue ball to run but it’s a personal preference. The shot you’re talking about I did later in the video. You could do a variation of that. Thanks for watching and thanks for your comments.
Is this shot aimed without English center cue ball to out side edge of object ball but when English applied you have to compensate to hit object ball a little fuller
The shot is aimed with a ghost ball. The compensation from english should come naturally. If it does not, then you need to shoot thousands more shots with outside english. Nevertheless, a very good question. Thank you for watching.
Hiya there! Is there any difference between anxiety clients, as a pool practitioner, playing in tournaments! Thanks again
I’m not sure I understand your question but thanks for watching
Heya there! Am gaining so much knowledge, from your recent short video's! Um going back to last message, I'm a anxiety sufferer so when practicing it doesn't show up,when in a local pool tournament my anxiety shoots sky high! Is there ways to overcome this! Thanks again
That shoot use back hand or fronthand English ?
I don’t use backhand or front hand, English. That’s a crutch that you don’t need with low deflection cues - I play English parallel to the shot and the shot in the video is almost always outside English.
Does it matter when you are a left handed player?
It does not matter. In fact, you should learn this shot from both sides. I play one side for the best camera angles but you need to work both sides of the table. Thanks for watching.
Do you teach lessons in person?
Yes I give lessons in person in Norristown Pennsylvania - you can visit fxbilliards.com for more information
What is your opinion on the Predator pool table?
Make the table in the video is an Ohlhausen, 9 foot with predator cloth. Predator responses my channel which is why you see their logo - that aside. I think their predator table is amazing. I’ve never seen one person ever say anything bad about it.
Oh yeah…..Merry Ho Ho
Thanks Ronnie. And thank you again for your support of the channel.
For me this is too advanced. I don't even know how to spin. 😀 and if I try i miss the shot entirely.
You may have been watching the wrong channel in the past. Make sure you subscribe and we will get you up to speed.
You make them too easy I swear 😢
This is by far my weakest shot.
Let’s get in those reps and make it your favorite
Thanks!
You bet! Thank you John!!!
