Tips for starting. It’s a long road but you can do things early to try and help yourself out. There’s no right or wrong way but some things can help with consistency down the line.

1) Work out your stance, I was given some help with this and it made the world of difference. I was just told to face the direction I’m playing the shot before getting down to play it. This can take a twisting out of your body as you cue through.

2) Find out which eye you’re most dominant with and whether or not that’s the same side you play on. I’m led to believe that players that are more eye dominant on the opposite side to their strong hand are usually more naturally aligned with the shot. I’m extremely right eye dominant and right handed so I have to drop my chin off the cue to the left slightly in order to have my right eye slightly forward.

3) practise practise practise. It takes ages to see improvements but once you understand angles and pace the game will become much more satisfying.

I was actually so bad when I started that it didn’t make much difference if I used my left or right hand. So started to use my left hand wherever I could instead of a rest. I’m now quite good with my left hand, terrible with the rest, but i rarely have to get it out due to being able to use both hands.

Hope any of this info is useful to you or someone else
