Hi, I'm new to the forum, I haven't played for about 5 years, but just got my table up and I've identified a few problems with my action, and would appreciate any help to fix them.
I've been trying a few things in the last week and its making things difficult.
Stance #1 which is in the video, simply is a comfortable stance.
Stance #2 I have my left leg out further and turn the body more into the line. I'm not sure which way to go here.
I can never seem to sight up right, nearly every shot I miss goes to the inside. I can't work out where I should sight up right side/left side centre? I think it has something to do with my cueing arm leaning in toward my body. so on the forward stroke I'm off. Some days I seem to be ok, others totally off.
When I looked at some close up videos, I noticed every time my cueing arm would shank outwards, and the cue strike the ball to the left. I fixed it by deliberately pulling my arm inwards at the strike. But noticed I was only putting a heap of side on the ball. Even when I'm looking directly at the cueball, I can't stop my arm from shanking out.
My First Youtube video is a bit screwed up, I'm trying to find the tape again so I can reencode it , but It gives some idea of where I'm at.

I'm still in the construction phase, But I've just installed a double flouro light setup so no horrible lighting. this video was a few weeks old.
