hey guys I'm Jade Dupree and today I'll
be showing you some tips to instantly
become a better pool player I know it
sounds far-fetched but they really are
tips that will instantly transform your
game so the first thing we're gonna talk
about is ball talk I mean how do you
improve your ball pocket how do you
actually make the ball now one tip that
I have for you is to look at the angle
of the shot I know it sounds so basic
but what a lot of people do is they'll
just like you ball land somewhere and
they'll just and just like it's like
that and then you make a careless
mistake once you go down the road you
may want run one rack but after that you
may completely botch it just because you
didn't care about what angle you had
like that so always take the time to
look at the shot before you shoot it if
I'm shooting around that same shot as I
did earlier I'm a look at this angle I'm
also gonna find my point and then I'm
just I know where I need to hit it's so
basic now so now I just put my foot on
that line I get down and I can make the
ball and you see that went right to the
heart of the pocket the five ball I kind
of hit here or here I can't remember
which one but it did not go right to the
heart of the pocket like that one ball
game now another tip I have for you it's
staying down on the shot and we all have
trouble with this all of us even the
pros we always every pool player has a
problem with this at some point and the
goal when you're shooting is to be
perfectly still nothing moving but your
arm we're trying to demonstrate that the
best I can
just like that so we want to stay down
until the ball hits the back of the
pocket so we're looking at our shot
we're getting down on the line
we're gonna stay sturdy we wanted to be
as stable as possible stay down until
the ball hits the back of the pocket now
there are a couple like stroke
differences that you may need to correct
with your with your stroke and all that
but you can do that one your own time
just know that with my stroke I don't
turn your wrist like that do not turn
your wrist that's a bad little defect
also you don't want to drop your elbow
too much it's like in the back you don't
want to drop it down like that on a
normal shot I'm gonna try to demonstrate
it I don't know my body will even let me
because I've tried to get rid of that so
hard but it'll look like this but you
see how your tip goes up and the only
way that you need to do that is when
you're doing like a crazy draw shop so
when you are drawing the ball back so
far it just becomes a necessity to drop
your arm like that and usually when you
do a draw shot like that your whole arm
goes through like it is crazy that's the
only instance where you would really
need it like if you're trying to power
draw stuff like that and you see it
doesn't really work I'm going to tell
you why so when you drop your elbow
notice to the direction of the chip so
I'm not copping my elbow Here I am going
to drop my elbow here look how the chip
goes up so that means when you think
you're aiming Center on the cue ball
when you drop your elbow it's gonna go
forward so I'm gonna aim Center on the
cue ball and drop my elbow watch the cue
ball go forward I'm aiming Center even
below sinhala aim below Center I'm still
going to go forward when I drop my elbow
and there will be a tiny bit of elbow
drop just depending on your stroke and
your game I had just a small I little
ant
but it does not affect my tip so it's
fine so I'll do my own normal stroke and
my elbow may go down just a little bit
but mostly it's all in my wrist mostly
the whole thing it's in my wrist you can
see my shooting motion from this
direction too so the steps we have so
far so we have a shot no matter what the
angle we're gonna look at it we're gonna
get down we're gonna shoot our most
stable position we're gonna bring it
back
don't drop the elbow stay down until the
ball hits the back of the pocket and I
know it's so hard to remember so what
you're gonna have to do is you're gonna
have to set up a shot there's two ways
you can do that so you can set up a shot
Frank just looking at the angle getting
down staying stable you go through your
pre shot routine keep your elbow up stay
down and so the ball hits the back of
the pocket so you're gonna have to do
that a few hundred times a day I know it
sounds crazy that's where you're gonna
have to do another thing you can do is
do this just take a ball look at the
angle into the pocket get down stay
stable don't drop your elbow stay down
so the ball hits the back of the pocket
so this one you're gonna have to do a
few thousand times do you a thousand
times until it becomes muscle memory to
do that oh and it's got to take a look
it took me about a month I'm just doing
that straight so just do that and it'll
automatically write your stroke and I
know it's so boring it's the most boring
thing people just want to play 9-ball
pocket balls but you really really have
to put time into
your mistakes and you may need a video
yourself playing and put it next to a
pro player who has like good
fundamentals like Ralph's ookay
also put your that's what III video
myself and I put my game next year
Ralph's UK and Thorson Holman and Mika
immanent I put myself my stroke next to
theirs and I look at the differences and
I tried my best to correct those
differences because they have they're
very fundamentally sound now another tip
I have for you and this is more of an
advanced tip so let's never fight again
nine Bowl and we have that right there
we have this situation right here and
what I need to get across to you is look
ahead at the problems in the rack so you
broke part of the table looks like this
we're looking ahead and assemble because
this seven ball only has one pocket and
it's the side so before I even shoot the
first ball I'm thinking about going from
the four to the seven in this case what
do I need to do to get to the four to
the seven so that's what we're gonna
think about and the answer would be like
this we're gonna get on that side of the
force you have trouble staying down
there and we're gonna try to get over
for the seven inch inside well if we can
make the four we didn't even look at the
angle there so yeah I'm not I'm not
practicing what I preach it but you see
over to the seven go look at the angle
also before you just get down to shoot a
shot see if it actually goes into the
pocket that's something a lot of players
have problems with they see a tough shot
that almost doesn't go and they just get
down think it goes and you shoot you
could get lucky and cross back it but
also that's part of looking at the angle
you got to see the shot so stay down on
the shot look at the angle don't drop
your elbow too too much and look ahead
at your problems and those will all
transform you into a better pool player
