Technique critque

That's pretty impressive, in our games he wasn't quite as prolific as your mate, only had the one century (108) which came in frame one after a terrible shot I played. He ran a few 75+ but mostly 50-70 breaks/clearances when he got in, which was enough.

14 - 87
15 - 87

I literally hardly had a shot!!!
Haha. Great to watch though.
Note: I wrote down his breaks this particular day, just cause I was interested to see what a session would look like on paper lol.

You are very lucky to have someone good to play, keeps you concentrated when you do get a chance, and more often than not the table stays tidy, I have a terrible habit of losing interest when the blacks up by the top Cush and all the rest are on the edge of the table, lol,
I would much rather play someone good.

your on the up rogi,
next time, when ever you miss and your mates on a break, keep hold of your cue while your picking out the balls and don't put it down till the frames beyond reach. this sends out positive vibes to you and your sparing partner and shows your involved, wanna play and score when your in.
if he's making back to backs it might feel a bit silly, but give it a go

Similar to myself that, when in that position on the yellow, I get the mini butt out where others less tall than me don't need it due to their more square left foot position.
Keep in mind when stretching for such shots that the table is in the way of your left foot and your body position therefore doesn't put your cue on the line of aim.
Don't think it will be ok just because you can reach it.

I have 2 recommendations though...in order to get your pace to something which allows you time to cement the shot into your mind increase your front and rear pause.
Secondly, this exercise is only good for warm-up and doesn't teach you anything about cueball control. Do a regular line-up where you force yourself to thing 2 shots ahead. When shooting a red think 'where do I want the cueball to be so I can get on THAT red from the colour'.
I think all you really need is lots of dedicated practice as you have the technique to improve rapidlt

- keep still on the shot as sometimes you are lifiting your head earlier; wait till the ball has dropped as you usually do anyways.
