Ten Pro Tips Your Opponents Don't Know
- What is commonly called the "ghost ball method of aim" doesn't work effectively in pool. The pros use a different method--one of the chief reasons I wrote Picture Yourself Shooting Pool.
- Most shooters learn billiards on their own, unlike tennis players and golfers who constantly rely on teaching pros. Find a good teacher and ask them to mentor you!
- Chalk the right amount between shots. Apply chalk to your cue stick's tip like someone applying lipstick on their lips: completely and evenly, but lightly.
- A good pool cue is a finely balanced instrument. Between shots, hold the cue about halfway along the butt end with your shooting hand and about halfway along the shaft end with your bridge hand, and you'll measure your body better to the cue ball as you assume your stance.
- You'll often hear, "While shooting, the lower arm hangs from the elbow at a right angle to the table, straight down toward the floor." The more correct statement would be, "Your lower arm forms a right angle (or nearly so) to the cue stick." The stick on most shots is on a slightly tilted plane above the table. In other words, if the cue is raised or lowered, your arm angle should change to meet it and help provide a quality stroke.
- "Chin above the cue stick" is another pool myth. Don't strain your neck to post your chin above the stick. Your arm must be on the shot aim line but your head and neck should rest on the middle of your trunk comfortably, left of the stick for right handers and vice versa for lefties. Sighting will be fine as your eyes can adjust instantly to find the target from this improved head position.
- How to choose a pool cue by weight? New players want heavier sticks--around 21 ounces in weight--that stay on the shot line longer due to their increased mass. Intermediates and experts want lighter cues for more subtle mastery of ball speed and spin. Most pros use 19-ounce cues or less, and 19 ounces makes a good choice for you after you've played pool for a year or two.
- The little-known game of 7-Ball is a great practice game for 9-Ball fans. Two fewer balls on the table provides an easier layout from the break yet adequate challenge for your skills.
- Pick a specific spot for the cue ball to land on the next shot. Get there by choice of stroke speed rather than feel and "touch." Commit to a personal speed of stroke like "medium" or "soft" before bending to shoot. Maintain a follow-through about the same length as your backstroke.
- Most amateurs use sidespin or "English" far too often. I use a quarter-tip here or a dash of English there when needed. I'm always practicing center ball aim and sometimes go 30 minutes or more without English on any shot. This builds great confidence in shot-making ability by limiting variables of spin.

想像一下,當你掌握了球桿的運動方式,並磨練了瞄準和射擊技巧時,你將以全新且提升的撞球技能令朋友們驚艷。《想像自己打撞球:逐步指導成功的撞球技巧》為從初學者到熟練球手的每個人提供實用且易於理解的撞球理論和指導。書中充滿了全彩圖片和逐步指導,涵蓋了每個新技巧和策略,並附有一張DVD,逐步演示了所介紹的戰術,還包括額外的技巧和特殊的撞球技巧。從基礎知識開始,你將學習如何選擇你的設備,包括適合你的正確球桿。然後,你將學習如何握住和引導球桿,以及如何最佳地對齊身體和撞球桌。書中還介紹了不同球桿動作的具體技巧,甚至提供了專業球桿動作的指導,以提升你的遊戲水平。通過學習遊戲的關鍵球桿引導和不同球的碰撞方式,你將掌握遊戲的關鍵技巧。書中還介紹了如何閱讀撞球桌的策略和技巧,以及不同撞球遊戲的基本規則、撞球桌禮儀,甚至購買和維護個人球桿和撞球桌的信息。
以下是《想像自己打撞球》中的十個專業技巧,你的對手可能不知道:
1. 在撞球中,通常所謂的「幽靈球瞄準法」並不有效。專業球手使用不同的方法,這也是我寫這本書的主要原因之一。
2. 大多數撞球選手都是自學,不像網球選手和高爾夫球選手經常依賴教練的指導。找一位好的教師並請他們指導你!
3. 在每次擊球之間,要在球桿尖端均勻地輕輕塗抹適量的粉筆。就像有人在嘴唇上塗口紅一樣,完全均勻但輕輕地塗抹。
4. 一支好的撞球桿是一個精密平衡的工具。在擊球之間,用射擊手的一半握住球桿的尾端,用橋手的一半握住球桿的中間,這樣你的身體就能更好地與球桿對齊。
5. 你常常會聽到「擊球時,下臂從肘部垂直向下,直接指向地板」。更正確的說法應該是「你的下臂與球桿形成一個直角(或接近直角)」。大多數情況下,球桿在球桌上略微傾斜。換句話說,如果球桿被抬高或降低,你的手臂角度應該隨之改變,以確保你能提供高質量的擊球。
6. 「下巴在球桿上方」是另一個撞球迷思。不要為了把下巴放在球桿上方而扭曲脖子。你的手臂必須在瞄準線上,但你的頭和脖子應該舒適地靠在軀幹的中間,右撞球手在球桿的左側,左撞球手則相反。這樣改善的頭部位置可以使你的眼睛立即調整,找到目標。
7. 如何根據重量選擇撞球桿?新手想要更重的球桿,約21盎司,因為重量增加可以使球桿在擊球線上停留更長時間。中級和高級選手則想要更輕的球桿,以更細微地控制球的速度和旋轉。大多數專業球手使用19盎司或更輕的球桿,對於你在打撞球一兩年後,19盎司是一個不錯的選擇。
8. 鮮為人知的7球遊戲是9球愛好者的一個很好的練習遊戲。桌上少了兩顆球,使得佈局更容易,但對你的技巧來說仍然具有足夠的挑戰。
9. 選擇下一球桿落點時,要通過擊球速度的選擇來實現,而不是依靠感覺和「觸感」。在彎曲射擊之前,要確定自己的擊球速度,例如「中速」或「輕柔」。保持與反擊長度相同的後揮動。
10. 大多數業餘選手使用側旋或「英文名」在撞球中。
