Stroke Builder Drills
The drills are primarily about improving your stroke itself. The aim is to get you stroking perfectly straight through the ball, and able to hit the ball on the exact vertical centerline every time. Until you can do this repeatably, you will be missing balls and not know if the fault was a crooked stroke or a hit on the cue ball that was not in the intended location.
You should do these drills regularly until you can make 10 in a row easily. Then you should come back to them any time you start to have difficulty, to make sure that your stroke is true.

I am submitting this more to see if I am typing in the correct place – that is in the enclosed box.
Having done this, I think that the written text does not make the point strongly enough that if the cue ball does not come back and hit the cue tip, which is not so easy to do – something is wrong. It is probably the stroke, but it might be the aim. Also it is cheating if the eyes are on the cue ball at impact, rather than the target. Also it becomes much harder as one steps up the velocity.
Please email me if this is in the wrong slot.
