I don't think so Mike! I'd back you for 50+ easy on that routine 😃

Yeah Mike, you and 50,000 others, myself included. Sometimes I feel like just packing it up and walking out right then, but if you do, you never get any better.

😂😂not even possible 👌

@@dermotshaw6775 you could pot the yellow when there's only colours on the table, or you could pot two reds in the same shot?

Unless there's a video, I don't believe you mate 🤣🤣

@@twooks òh ye didn't even think about that 😂

@@twooks if he followed the routine of this video, then he potted the yellow and stopped.

That will be good Franky! Let's hope next year is a better one than this 🤞

Awesome. Well done on the 60 break 👍

Awesome! Very well done. 140 😎 Stay safe! Greetings from England!

Sounds like fun. I like that you can't play the same color more than 3 times in a row. No rest allowed is another challenge for sure.

@@PhatElvis7 we take a page out and note everyone's scores according to the order of the shots. The best part is when someone tries to pot a red and misses it, or fouls on any other color (white goes off, not hitting the ball they were supposed to, or hitting another ball than they were supposed to, you know, normal fouls), we shout, MINUS HIM.

The game you mentioned is being played at your club on regular basis except we set a number for the players to achieve. Intermediate players set for around 300 or more and there is usually more than 3 players in one game.

Good idea Kendall 👍

Update. Got 177 this morning !!! First time ever making over 100 in any drill or lineup I do have a rule not to pot same ball more than 3 times in a row

Well we play century but with some different rules you can pot a ball maximum 3 times. And the top 2 players don't pay. And red have 10 points but if you misses the red there will be -10 lol. And you can reset the table after you pot yellow ball😂

Pro top 10? Even top 10 amateur european players are much to strong for him.

He did a video about cues, here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oZ-JrZdh07yvZ2Q.html

@@Delphiwizard cheers mate, should have looked myself 🙈

Hi Pete! I still use the old stuff myself. I haven't even tried the new chalk. Maybe I will do a review on it 🤔

@@BartonSnooker that would be great :) thanks Steve!

@@BartonSnooker And another idea for a review...try out that new Titanium ferrule that i hear and read about please, you probably have a second cue laying somewhere where you can test it on.

@@Delphiwizard I see the difference chalk could make but not the ferrule - at least not to the actual mechanics involved... Of course it may look somewhat nicer and not tarnish like a brass one and if this is pleasing then it can instill a little extra confidence, which can make a difference, just like if you have a nice looking cue or set of golf clubs :)

I use Elk Master Pro Soft. But it all comes down to what you personally prefer. I like the feel a soft tip gives me. But other players prefer a harder more solid tip. My best advice is to try a few tips and settle on what you like the feel of.

@@BartonSnooker thanks ! 👍🏻 will try some differents options and lets see how is going each one 🤞🏻

I have a spare cue, yes. A handmade cue so it is very good quality. You would be more than welcome to use that in our session. Dean Jones Cues is the only one local to me. Google than name and his details will come up. It's not essential that you bring your own cue to a session, although it's always nice to use your on familiar cue.

@@BartonSnooker thanks for the response! Will contact you when I can come to u when this damn virus has subsided

He already did a few total clearance videos and a 147 T exercise line up here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g8uan9iDkpzTdoE.html

Hi! Very soft tip. It's a Elk Master Pro Soft. The softest one they do. It just sounds hard because I'm wearing a clip on microphone for the audio. So gives a strange sound to the tip 🙂

@@BartonSnooker Ah, thanks, should have figured that out. If I shot like you do I'd be a terror in my local hall.

@@MrJdsenior it's difficult to tell on a video, and especially with microphones. Keep practicing John. All the routines I show in my videos I practiced and then improved and felt more comfortable with them.

@@BartonSnooker Here's a funny story for you. I have a guy I shoot with every now and again from down under that came within a smidgin (one ball, I think) of winning the Australian snooker open many many years back. I asked him one time if he could look at my shooting and maybe suggest a few things that I'm doing wrong that I could correct, and he, totally deadpan, shook his head, and quietly and flatly said "There's too much". I about fell out of my chair laughing. Didn't see that one coming. I hadn't had that good a belly laugh in a while. He's a great guy and still about 900X better than I am. And that's now, as he says he absolutely stinks compared to back then. He says pool in the States has ruined him and when he goes back and plays guys he used to easily beat, he usually gets a thorough trouncing. Thought you might enjoy that, I did. Thx again for the vids, if I ever get back to a table (lock down) I will re-watch and implement some of it. I actually have a fair amount of pool knowledge for a rank amateur, far more than my pathetic level of play would indicate. Come to think of it, at my level of play, that doesn't require much. Cheers.

@@MrJdsenior hehe! Nice sorry John. Snooker is a lot different to pool. The potting alone in snooke requires a very consistent and disciplined technique. I'm sure after following all my tips, you will see the improvements you want.

You may not have been paying attention to the rules of this practice. As I saw no ducks on the table, I assume you mean 'foul' shots not 'fowl'.

Just a bit of fun. Spell check raises its ugly head once again. Keep up the good work love your coaching.locked down in Ireland so no snooker for months.
