I love the way JJ explains the game while he's commentating matches. This is a natural progression for him and he's killing it. Great job JJ!

Depth knowledge! Must watch more than than once! Jj u are pool shepherd

As a novice these videos are excellent! I have personally done or seen done every bad thing Jeremy pointed out so far lol... Im finally in the position of getting a table soon and am going to apply all of the instructions from Jeremy in these videos and un learn my pre internet, self taught pool form. Thank you.

Really difficult to explain , how to right " timing the ball " , thanks j.j ! That s a really good video.... i have allready post it in my Training group!

One of the best instructors, for sure. Thanks for doing these videos. It helps support the industry, that needs more people like Jeremy.

God damn this man’s power of annunciation is unrivaled.

Please don't stop doing these!

Hope Jeremy does more of these, very good instructor.

I wish i knew him good enough to learn from him

If we don't use the full stroke available we tend to jab. Once a smooth stroke is consistent your on your way

this is a great series!!

Well done!

I just watched a 10 minute pool instruction video without a single ball being hit.

@@drewcramer3216 So I'm not the only one thinking that. =) A lot of times trainers spend hours trying to find analogies and metaphors for what you should do, but in reality all you need is to see someone doing it right, over and over and maybe him telling you what to look at that makes that a good stroke and then maybe watching someone doing it wrong so you know what NOT to do. Pretty simple - it aint rocket science guys. One thing about the stroke he never mentions... and in my opinion is way more important is not allowing the butt of the cue to go up, then down, then up again, like on a curve. It's probably the biggest mistake a lot of people hold on to for a long time.

thats right JJ (karl boyes voice)

Thanks again Jeremy, great video. Thoughts on adding Pinegar or Bergman for next year's Mosconi? BTW, that Euro team was going to be hard to beat no matter what. Keep plugging at it.

Jeremy, I want to switch to cue ball last in my eye pattern, I feel like I can hit the part of the cue ball I want more consistently, however I have mixed results with where the cue ball goes. Sometimes it does not go where I intended, any tips on how to effectively use, cue ball last, and to transition?

I noticed at the 9:19 mark when the stroke is demonstrated it is a slip stroke. Same on the next stroke. Any more input on this technique? (or stroke slip, some people debate one slides before hitting, the other after hitting. )

I would recommend all y’all to go out there and get a coach to see what your arm is doing. Because we need to get the arm aligned well before we use our “natural swing.” If your arm is cocked out or chicken winging, no amount of natural swinging is going to be actually straight. I recently realized that for years, my arm has been cocked outwards about an inch (not even that much), which led to my back hand swiping across the shot just about a cm, leading to my tip placement being off from 1-5mm, depending on the speed of the shot. Frustrating that I realized so late, but better than never, I guess.

most fargo 700+ players have the arm either slightly inwards or outwards. the straightest shooters like filler, shaw don’t have their elbow behind their heads. why? because they can cue straighter like that. and that’s all that matters.

@@logic368 I think he meant heads, albeit that is probably not the best measure of a straight stroke. elbow and bridge alignment, in theory, is the most important. If you're head slightly off kilter, then you are probably playing toward your dominant eye (not a bad thing).

I think the word you are looking for is synopsis.

Imagine having a 7 foot wingspan and as big a stroke as anyone, ever, and trying to teach that to others?.. Must be frustrating?..

A million dollars worth of game for free 99.

Can we nicely ask you to go and let someone else take over and select new players for Mosconi cup? If not how many more looses before its enough? Its not just about technique and skills, some players you were favoring just dont have competitive spirit and are not fighters. I bet Strickland or Mike Sigel would do better job. Thank you!

I'm pretty sure JJ only selects one or two of those players. The rest have to compete to get on the list. Its tough for us, because it is an entire continent comprised of 50 countries vs one country. I would be asking for the tournament to be Europe vs North America. We could have guys like Alex P, John Morra, and such on the team. Strickland and Sigel would have been great 15+ years ago.

Easy to be a Monday morning QB. Who would of you chosen that wasn't on the team and more importantly, who would of you not selected. Not sure many folks wouldn't of selected SVB, who was the weakest link on the 2023 team.... Are you questioning the play of certain players early in the match by chance? Love to hear your response boy/girl wonder! Also you used the term "we" in the first sentence. Are you speaking for a group of people or just yourself ??

Ha ha. Good one. I see your point, but it is amazing how much more people respect you and expect excellence when you dress the part. Too many people today don't seem to understand that.

If Jeremy Jones is coaching the USA Mosconi Cup team, then he should find new work. 11-3 and you have USA players celebrating individual wins. That was the most pathetic pool I’ve ever seen in any competition in my life and if Jeremy was the coach he should find new work!
