This shot is fun, ... By: getlois. on 27 Apr 08, 22:31:34 This shot is fun, but takes a little practice. First hit your cue ball into the rail not to hard and see if you can get it to jump back over a ball, then work on your accuracy. Good luck and have fun, remember to shoot a little above center and elevate slightly, about 1 foot from the rail - Thanks for your comment - Dean

Hey Dean. Great ... By: digbick1978. on 21 Jan 08, 04:02:05 Hey Dean. Great videos mate :) Jump shot question. From you opinion, can you give me a rating score ( / 10 ) on each cue stick VS the % accuracy and reliability when performing jump shots (1) Your typical used cue stick at a bar (2) brand new cue stick with big tip (3) brand new with small tip (4) jump cue stick. Thanks

Great idea, this is ... By: getlois. on 20 Jan 08, 01:56:20 Great idea, this is also good practice for me, makeds me thinks and plan each shot as I explain what it, keeps me honest. Thanks for the tip and I'll be mentioning you when this tip come out. Thanks Dean

when you strike the ... By: amerikanerMarinen. on 31 Dec 07, 19:26:08 when you strike the cue ball, the stick is coming down in a left/right angle, putting a left or right spin on the ball so when the ball hits the table, it catches the surface and curves.

Yes, sometimes I ... By: getlois. on 06 Nov 07, 03:48:24 Yes, sometimes I like to "Spear" the cue ball, I get more cue elevation and it's easier to jump at close range. If I really want to control the cue ball I will stroke the cue ball with normal stroke and with less elevation, maybe on my next "Jump" video I will explain more... thanks for watching Dean's Pool Tips Dean

Check your Stroke, ... By: getlois. on 06 Sep 07, 15:34:17 Check your Stroke, this happens because you are not hittin center on the cue ball also check the elevation of your cue, don't be to jacked up... meaning lower the back end a little, see if this helps, again it's all in your stroke, keep it straight. Good Luck.... Dean

No worries at all.. ... By: getlois. on 20 Oct 08, 22:42:29 No worries at all...this is an APA rule. I'm sure you know that 8-ball rules are different all over the globe. Thanks for watching!

I'm sure you're far ... By: Oldiesyoungies. on 18 Oct 08, 10:44:53 I'm sure you're far better than me, but according to the BCA if you sink the 8-ball on the break it is spotted, it is not a win. For a legal break, 4 object balls need to hit the rail...it doesn't matter if you hit the rack from the front or back. Not trying to sound like a no-it-all. Out of curiosity, where did you get your rules from?

I agree, next video ... By: getlois. on 13 Sep 08, 17:18:22 I agree, next video I will go more in detail about other breaking Strategies, I also may have a guest pro pool player to demonstrate. Thanks for your comment and stay in touch. Dean "Dean's Pool Tips"

Thanks for the ... By: getlois. on 13 Sep 08, 17:13:41 Thanks for the comment drummbummhazze - Pool is a fun sport and yes you should at least learn the basics but remember, everyone does not always play by the same rules, ask your opponant before you play so there is no confusion. Dean "Dean's Pool Tips"

Good question, it ... By: getlois. on 13 Sep 08, 16:58:51 Good question, it depends on what rules you play by. In the APA any time you make the 8-ball on the break without scratching it's a win. If you also scratch, it's a loss. This is true regardless of what other balls may be made on the break shot. In BCA play if the 8-ball is made on the break it's simply spotted and the game continues. Thanks for the comment this is a popular question. Dean "Dean's Pool Tips"

Hey and thanks for ... By: getlois. on 13 Sep 08, 16:47:36 Hey and thanks for the comment - I have a few cues for shooting and one for breaking, for less than $50 I get a solid break shot with a three-piece Jump/Break Pool Cue, I can break it down for a jump shot and also works great as a short cue in tight spaces too. My cue has a 14mm one-piece phenolic tip and ferrule. It measures a standard 58" long and is 21 oz weight. Three-piece cue measurements: Shaft 28-3/4" Middle 15-1/8" Bottom 16-1/2". thanks for the comment, hope this helps Dean

Dean, I'm a pool ... By: dns4808. on 12 Sep 08, 04:57:04 Dean, I'm a pool enthusiast.. anyway just wanna ask. what type of cue do you have and what tip do u used? I own a 1. Predator BK2 2. Predator Air 3. Falcon with 314 Shaft. 1. Im still have a prob on my break on 9 ball.. did you have any tips on how to break it? My fren does say break it with half ball and some of them says 70% half.. and how bout u?

Thanks for posting ... By: Seano71. on 12 Sep 08, 04:13:21 Thanks for posting these videos. I was wondering why the cue ball would fly off the table on me when I hit it hard sometimes. Now I know why and don't have to worry about playing long, tactical games anymore. Its all about potting tomorrow night in the pool comp :D

If the 8 ball is ... By: DumbestCrayon. on 18 Aug 08, 01:01:51 If the 8 ball is pocketed on the break it is not always a win. There are two different ways to play. There are two options. You can play sinking the 8 wins or, the better way, If you pocket the 8 ball on the break the person who broke can either choose a rerack or spot the 8 ball. Because sinking the 8 on a break is mostly luck.

since I only play ... By: youngcomedy. on 19 Jul 08, 18:55:15 since I only play pool when I go camping, which is like 2 or 3 times a year...and I don't own a pool table, I obviously suck. so i don't want people to keep bugging me if this sounds stupid, but i never knew there was such thing as a breaking stick, I didn't know that there was illegal breaks, and honestly, until maybe...last year, I didn't even know how to set up the balls in the rack...so call me a noob if you want, at least I'm man enough to admit that it's true.

I don't really get ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 14:49:21 I don't really get into the rules of the APA or the BCA - When you are playing pool at a friends house or in a bar, you might want to ask your opponent which game he would like to play, chances are he has know idea about BCA or the APA, don't get your ask kicked for know reason..... lol good luck

Yes I know that and ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 14:43:05 Yes I know that and thanks Ron. These tips were shot for recreational pool, not BCA or APA. I actually play with the APA...I will be shooting some new tips in the next few months that will explain both the BCA and APA rules...

Thanks for your ... By: getlois. on 30 Mar 08, 17:47:17 Thanks for your comments, and yes you are correct - that's one of the tips I wanted to do over so I could focus more on how to rack the balls, I didn't go over that in detail. again thank for the comment

8 ball is my ... By: Snookbone. on 01 Mar 08, 17:02:50 8 ball is my favourite game and these tips are great. However, I do play a lot of 9 ball as well. Is there a tip on breaking 9 ball? If not, could there be one in the pipeline?

Dean

This is exactly why ... By: getlois. on 23 Oct 08, 05:10:49 This is exactly why we become inconsistant, we think too much. Lock in to what works right down to how you stand, stroke, eye movement etc...be consistant and practice and try not to out think yourself, relax and do what works, shoot with confidence, never second guess yourself when executing a shot. Sounds easy but it's not, give it a try and get back, like to know how your doing. Dean "Dean's Pool Tips"

Do you have a video ... By: PachucoDesigns. on 30 Dec 08, 01:49:04 Do you have a video on how to make a ball ride the rail down to a pocket by shooting it at an angle like you did on the 9 ball? I can never seem to get that to work. It only ever seems to make the target ball bounce back from the rail and completely ruin the shot.

Many players ... By: getlois. on 23 Oct 08, 05:27:28 Many players mistakenly call these spins english. Both expressions may be combined to explain the point of the cue ball aimed at for a shot. A player asked What sort of english did you use? might respond, High left english or A bit of bottom right english, etc. to explain that both top or bottom spin and sidespin was applied. Call it what you want, but many players still call this english.

That shot isn't the ... By: 2hvy4grvty. on 18 Oct 08, 01:09:47 That shot isn't the best example of draw vs follow. 1. If you get to the point where you're actually learning draw and follow, either shot would've been easy, neither would be a "better" shot. 2. IF you were straight in, it would have been a "better" choice to draw it back. I'd rather take a cut than a scratch. 3. Rolling the ball with a center ball hit would've given you great position as well. 4. There's no such thing as top "English". English refers to the x-axis of the cue ball.

@getlois: for the ... By: Seano71. on 12 Sep 08, 04:25:47 @getlois: for the drawback, you get a cleaner screwback if you have cue as low down as possible, with it under your chin and follow through. Snooker players do it all the time, they have a very different style to the American pool players

It depends on who ... By: getlois. on 07 Jan 08, 05:51:32 It depends on who you ask...read on Bottom English (or screw shots as referred to by the Brits) The same applies to every type of English you apply but trying to put the right amount of English on the ball to get the cue ball into the correct posistion is a matter of experience and adapting to different tables. I hope this helps, keep me informed of any improvements. Dean

Hi Michael - ... By: getlois. on 05 Jan 08, 05:31:24 Hi Michael - Thanks for the comment and I'm glad your game is getting hot, I have more tips coming out on DVD in a few weeks there are 6 new pools tips and other fund stuff to watch, hope you get a copy, and I'll keep the tips coming with some more exciting trick shots..... BTW - I loved Ireland, just visited with my father in April last year, I'm told there is more sheep than people... is that true? Take Care and Good Luck with your Pool Game Dean

Yes you should keep ... By: getlois. on 28 Dec 07, 23:56:32 Yes you should keep the cue level unless you have to elevate the cue for a masse shot, jump shot or to avoid a push shot etc... In this shot I was simply demonstrating where to hit the cue ball when executing a "Draw Shot" which you can shoot any way you like as long as you achieve the same result. I do bend the rules occasionally but only if I can get away with it... Thanks for the comment and good luck with your game Dean

Yes, a level cue ... By: getlois. on 28 Dec 07, 23:42:45 Yes, a level cue stick is better for accuracy, considering the distance of my shot I wasn't to concerned about accuracy I was just demonstrating two different types of english, follow through (top) and draw (bottom)both can also be shot with a level cue - Thanks for the comment and if you have a tip you would like to send in I would be glad to mention you in the next round of "Dean's Pool Tips"

Obviously you're a ... By: bandit9874. on 21 Dec 07, 16:52:27 Obviously you're a pretty good player. But I don't agree with elevating the cue unless absolutly nessesary. i have one of the best draw shot techniques around where I'm from. Sometimes it is nessesary to elevate. But don't you think a level cue is better for accuracy?

FYI.....The greater ... By: AtlanticPoolPro. on 27 Nov 08, 17:21:29 FYI.....The greater the elevation of your cue that faster the cue ball will curve... IE: Imagine 2 shots, for both shots the cue ball is hit at 3:00, however shot #1 was hit at a 30 degree angle while shot 2 was hit at an 80 degree angle. The first shot should travel down the table for quite some distance (depending on speed of course) before it breaks off the initial target line and begins to swerve to the right, however shot #2 should almost instantly begin to swerve to the right!

The weight of the ... By: getlois. on 14 Sep 08, 22:28:13 The weight of the cue shoudn't matter, it's how you stroke down on the cue ball. Remember you are creating spin on the cue ball in order to change its direction, if you put enough back spin on the cue ball hitting it 6 inches forward, it will come straight back to the point of contact, now if you move the tip slightly left or right it will curve, play around with this and observe the results. Cue elevation is key when doing this shot, be careful not to damage the felt. Good luck. Dean

Yes, but first get ... By: getlois. on 13 Sep 08, 17:37:21 Yes, but first get your stroke down, and remember you don't have to hit this shot hard, this shot is about getting that cue ball to spin and move the direction you want, very important to chalk before every shot.

Well, since you're ... By: OsirisGOLAD. on 20 Apr 08, 16:31:16 Well, since you're playing it a bit harder than I personally would it could be a massé where the spin grabs the cloth and curves it. But what happens on a swerve is that you sort of 'push the ball into the cloth' sideways(it's relatively slow). The cueball wants to go to the side with least friction and wants to go to the objectball. A massé shot grabs the cloth with spin, whereas a swerve slides and creates a sort of 'no-pressure zone' on the cloth, like one part of the table is lower.

Thanks for your ... By: getlois. on 19 Apr 08, 17:23:33 Thanks for your comments - I am familiar with a Swerve Shot based on your description, in my video there is not enough distance to execute a "Swerve Shot" so I had to Masse - and yes I did have to grab the cloth to get around my object ball at a short distance - Thanks again for your comments Dean

I understand that we not all execute a shot the exact same way; this is why we develop our own technique and style. So when practicing if something works for you keep doing it, never change something that works especially if your getting great results. Good Luck in your game and stay in touch - Dean

Swerveshot is the ... By: OsirisGOLAD. on 16 Feb 08, 17:58:05 Swerveshot is the term that is used for this kind of shot in snooker. The difference between a swerve-shot and a massé is that swerveshot doesn't actually change it's direction because the ball grabs the cloth. It changes direction because the spin(which is diagonal relative to the table) creates less friction on one side of the ball at the moment your cue hits the ball. If this was a massé, the ball would keep curving in the same angle until it hit something.

A what? A complete ... By: getlois. on 16 Feb 08, 06:20:38 A what? A complete reversal of cueball direction would be the most radical example; however, the Massé in this video did not require it. Yes, there is such thing as "Slight Massé" not all Massé shots are radical, I guess you call this a "Swerve" shot, that is a new one for me, I'll have to research this shot and see if it even exists. Thanks for the comment Dean

This is a swerve, ... By: OsirisGOLAD. on 15 Feb 08, 16:37:46 This is a swerve, not a massé shot. Massé grabs the cloth, swerve makes the ball sort of slip back and makes it return to it's original line(if you strike it properly). For this shot you wouldn't even have to elevate the cue that much.

The definition for ... By: getlois. on 22 Oct 08, 02:20:52 The definition for English is: When a cue ball is struck on either side of its vertical axis, giving it side spin. English may also occur when a ball collides with another or with a rail. The term comes from the British players who first became famous with sidespin techniques. I use english mostly to gain cue ball position for the next shot. thanks for the comment, and good luck with your game Dean "Dean's Pool Tips"

You always want to travel a shorter distance if possible. 2nd shot: shoot the damn 13. You're snookered behind their balls after making that kick.

I just like to say that you have to remember when giving out tips that beginners are watching more closely to things that we(experienced players) don't pay attention to as much anymore ... such as ... cue elevation, stance, bridge, etc. For Example: I see in some videos you bridge higher than others when not needed or in this video you should stay between to pockets as much as you can to avoid scratching and keep it simple.

You are correct, ... By: silentfilmstar13. on 05 Dec 08, 13:02:36 You are correct, freakandfrak. To illustrate, consider this exaggeration: move the obect ball and the cue ball a full diamond right each. Just like the two inch demonstration, the angle remains the same. If you hit the shot, you will fall way short. When moving the origin point but not the destination point, you do need to adjust your angle's vertex. The ball still dropped in his 2 inch shot because the vertex simply needs a 1 inch adjustment, which fell within his shot's margin of error.

You would be ... By: getlois. on 03 May 08, 20:31:21 You would be correct if I didn't move the cue ball 2" also. The agle stays the same because you moved both the cue ball and the object ball 2" to the right - Use the diamonds as a guide based on measurement, of course if your stroke is off you will miss, and don't hit to hard, the rail will not have time to react and create the angle you desire - Lots of factors in bank shots, practice and decide what works best for you - Dean

hmmm....seems to me ... By: freakandfrak. on 15 Mar 08, 04:32:16 hmmm....seems to me if the q and object ball were both 2" to the right of the diamond, you'd have to strike the object ball on the right(instead of dead center). Otherwise the ball would end up 2" to the right of desired pocket.

Some of my favorite ... By: getlois. on 03 Feb 08, 21:50:51 Some of my favorite shots are cross banks and kick shots, I do have a video demontrating a 1 rail kick shot but none on cross banks. I will include a tip on cross banks in my next set of Dean's Pool Tips, thanks for the comment. Dean

The same rule ... By: getlois. on 03 Feb 08, 21:48:24 The same rule applies, just account for the additional rails. Practice 1, 2 and 3 rail bank shots and mark where the cue ball is supposed to stop each time, do this and you will be an expert in no time. good luck Dean

I like to add a few ... By: arctichawk1978. on 25 Feb 08, 15:56:54 I like to add a few things that may help. Before making a shot decide what you want to do first ... alot of people miss easy shots because they didn't fully commit the shot and where they wanted the cue ball be for the next shot. Try to think 3 balls ahead ... create angles for 2 shots ahead ... being too straight on sucks unless it's the last ball to shoot. Also ... if distracted ... get up and walk to the opposite side of shot ... it allows time to forget about what distracted you. Then Commit

Yes, this works ... By: getlois. on 10 Feb 08, 20:16:00 Yes, this works very well for me, I sometimes neglect this rule when in a hurry, pool is a very patient sport unless your playint "Speed Pool". Good Luck in your game Dean

Thanks a lot for ... By: igorchete. on 09 Feb 08, 21:14:35 Thanks a lot for the tips. I'm sort of a beginner pool player, and yes, the shot visualisation tip really helps. Before, i usually followed my instincts for predicting where will the white ball end up at, but with visualising it's much more efficient! Thanks.

You sound like to ... By: getlois. on 20 Jan 08, 08:02:32 You sound like to good player and yes distractions come easy when your not in the zone. Sometimes I'll close my eyes and go through the shot in my head then execute the shot... might sound funny but it works. Thanks for writing and good luck with your game. Dean

Thanks for the ... By: getlois. on 13 Sep 08, 17:56:34 Thanks for the comment, and you are correct about hitting the rail first on a rail shot, I was mostly focusing on "Combination Shots" and didn't pay too much attention to that particular shot, I was a bit rushed when doing this tip - I hope you are sharing your experience with new pool players, we need to make this sport as popular as other sports e.g. Golf, Tennis, NASCAR Etc...Pro Pool Players should have the same opportunity as other High Profile sports figures. Dean "Dean's Pool Tips"

I am sorry to say, ... By: obilo5. on 12 May 08, 21:17:09 I am sorry to say, but that is wrong, unless you're just a few inches from the pocket. Hitting the rail and ball at the same time is a recipe for a miss. Hit the rail just a fraction of a inch before the object ball. The harder you hit the cue ball, the more distance you need from the object ball. You see, the cushion compresses allowing the cue to hit the object ball at the real contact point. And, never use outside english on rail shots unless you know how to compensate for deflection.

I am not a teacher ... By: shortstop20. on 23 Apr 08, 12:57:39 I am not a teacher by any means but I have been playing for 5 years or so. When shooting at an object ball that is on the rail you want to hit the object ball and the rail at the same time basically. Keep in mind the angle you are shooting at in relation to the rail will dictate which part of the cue ball must contact the object ball first. This is what most beginners have the most trouble with.....knowing exactly what point on the cue ball has to hit the object ball first.

I just got my first ... By: WayFastWhitey8. on 04 Feb 08, 22:51:50 I just got my first pool table, and can't stop playing. I'm having trouble with shots where the ball is on or near the bumper. Do you have any tips?

good advice.. I see ... By: cynikal30. on 27 Dec 08, 22:14:53 good advice.. I see so many times players trying to use english when they can just use the rail to thier advantage and consequently missing the original shot because they focus too much on english.

Hitting the cue ... By: getlois. on 22 Jul 08, 16:33:11 Hitting the cue ball off center will produce the same effect, do not move your cue stick, keep it steady, your stroke must be solid so you can target the exact position of the hit, good luck Dean

I am wondering... ... By: killzorz13. on 17 Jul 08, 04:14:59 I am wondering... when i apply english to a shot will there be a difference if i move the cue left or right as i hit it or does hitting the cue ball off center produce the same effect

You would still ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 15:38:31 You would still need to cheat the pocket unless you already have an angle, there are other ways but this is easier and you don't have to use any English. Don't make this game hard, when you have a shot keep it simple, don't get crazy because you can. Position your cue ball so you each shot will naturally setup for the next shot, try this and run out with out using english, Good Luck Dean

Lol... you are ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 15:32:38 Lol... you are correct, position is everything, but making the shots is critical... Good Luck Dean

First of all you ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 15:29:03 First of all you are not an "Idiot" Don't be so hard on yourself, even older pool players ask me this question. First practice your stroke, then take just the cue ball and place it on the table. When you line up your cue tip with the center of the Cue Ball, I want you to move the tip slightly to the left, now hit it straight into the side rail soft to medium and watch what happens, and remember the result. Good Luck Dean

Typically we use ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 15:16:56 Typically we use the word English when we are creating cue ball spin by hitting the cue ball slightly to the left or right, this measurement is usually about 1 tip to the left or right of the center of the cue ball. Try hitting the cue ball into the side rail, medium to soft stroke 1/4, 1/2 and 1 full tip to either side, see the reaction and remember the result. Thanks Dean

Very Cool, you went ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 15:07:02 Very Cool, you went out and jumped the ball after one video, that is awesome! Know, practice your stroke, get it perfectly straight, then work on your hit, you don't have to kill this ball to make it go straight, in fact the harder you hit the harder it is.... Good Luck Dean

That was a Masse ... By: getlois. on 02 Jul 08, 15:03:22 That was a Masse shot, a little down spin combined with some down spin, and shoot the ball just to the side of your opponents ball, don't have to hit this to hard... play around with it and let me know how your doing. I do have a tip on "Masse Shots" check it out.... Thanks Dean

Over stroking is ... By: getlois. on 16 Sep 07, 17:38:20 Over stroking is common with most players, even myself but if executed with perfect stroke this shot is a "Game Winner" - I just placed 2nd out of 16 players at Stix Billiards and I've never had to "Masse" as many times as needed that day, but I was playing some tough players and found myselp "Burried" most of the time... a great shot to know when in this situation...
