Wrist flick or wrist snap is a useful technique to getting big draw.
Seems true in my experience...


IMO, it's a "loose" wrist that is necessary to play pool at higher
levels.
"Loose" on all shots. I have no clue how the mechanics of that work, but
the results - a smooth efficient stroke, more predictable cue ball
control,
more accurate speed control, more action on the cue ball with less
effort,
etc. - are clear, IMO.

I'm beginning to discover (more like re-discover) this. I started this
thread talking about draw but I played a bit today and employed the
technique on pretty much all shots and WOW. More control, more
accuracy, more action when I need it, less effort. Its kind of been one
of those ah-ha moments! Perhaps what I am calling wrist flick, others
just call "loose" wrist. Whatever it is, its very important.

Yah. Without a doubt.
Now I wonder if we want to get into the physics of it????
What does a "loose wrist" or a "wrist flick" do to the movement of the cue?
Ron? (Please don't tell us it's another myth!)
Anyone?
