"A Common Fault"
|
||
|
Above all, when you do let your cue go, let
it go far enough. Do not be afraid to let the
cue drive well through the ball. This is where
so many average amateurs fail; it is easily
the most common fault in ordinary billiards.
Countless thousands of players flinch a little
as their cue comes into contact with their ball.
It looks as if something has occurred to them just as they are about to make their stroke, and instead of swinging straight through the ball with their cue, they check their cue delivery ever so slightly as if striving to remedy some mistake before it is too late. This is utterly and hopelessly wrong, and is the cause of more bad billiards than all the other billiard faults put together. You cannot strike a ball where it should be struck or how it should be struck in this hesitating way, and I earnestly advise you to do all that you possibly can to guard against this all too common fault. |
