In this video we look at the dominant eye in pool. The video shows a couple of methods of finding your dominant eye but also discusses why it is wrong to just use your dominant eye. What you need to find is your vision centre and that it what you line your cue up to.

The shots are carried out on a 7ft Supreme Winner UK 8 ball table

    probably the single most important thing to get right and the most effective method I have seen to find cue position on chin Thank you 😊
  • @701JM
    Good info. I've messed about a few times a month or so back and always found myself going back to what felt most natural after a few shots. Done the pen test you mentioned and not suprisingly it's right where my cue is naturally.
  • I’m a left handed player, left eye dominant….. always playing around with alignment using my chin as a reference point, and yes have watched several elite pros play and they’re all different. Joshua Filler, Jayson Shaw, etc, etc. I’ll try using the ink pen method and see where this takes me. Since finding your YouTube page I’m excited to try lots of new things….. and yes I’m totally aware that some may work for me while others do not. That’s the fun thing about pool, try, try and then try harder. Thank you…
  • Thank you. Very useful I will try this as it's something I've been testing but having the cue on the table as a guide looks like it will help me to find centre of vision.
  • I was just talking about this with my buddy. My best cut-shots I zone into an equal blur and fire! Thank you once again!
  • kool stuff..probably the best method for finding vision centre that ive seen
  • @yep.fishing
    Im fascinated by this. I write left handed and am left eye dominant but play right handed. That ash cue is a beauty btw
  • @mbro4490
    Thanks mate. Well explained. Would love for you to do a video solely explaining how reverse spin works… from contact with the white ball to contact with the object ball to contact with the white ball hitting the cushion.
  • Thank you so much! I love your videos because they are very clear. Could I ask, do you have a repetitive drill where I can practice the exact same 3 cut shots (1/4, 1/2, 3/4 ball) over and over again? Thanks!
  • I use a Dewalt framing laser to align 3 balls on the table. Once the shooter is lined up on the three balls, you can see where the laser falls between the eyes. You will know when it's perfect. The laser will split the shaft. As you stroke, the laser will always be centered on the cue tip. I have only actually found 1 person who has a perfect center vision. Also. Place cardboard on the floor with a center line on it that matches the laser line. Once the shooter aligns perfectly, trace the foot positions. Now you know where feet go in relationship to the shot line. This will totally reveal EVERYTHING about YOUR alignment.
  • Would love a pool school vs series of you playing other pool youtubers and maybe even a fan meet and great where people can challenge you to a game.

    At the 3 minute mark using the pen lined up to the cueball that must be with the dominant open only, with 2 eyes open you'll see 2 pens, You seem to have both open
  • im right eye dominant and the pen comes under corner of my right eye, however when i am down to the shot my head angle is not as 100% straight as it was while standing, which means the pen goes to different chin position while standing but when down since the head position is slightly different the pen goes to different chin position. what can be done? thank you
  • @JustMitchPool
    When I hold a pen out In front. I see 2 pens either side of the ball. Slowly bringing the pen towards my face, looks like I'm looking between 2 post. Would this mean my dominant eye or cue positioning would be in the middle of the chin? EDIT: After doing it multiple times, the cue will be just off centre to the left.
  • So here's my issue, I started playing left handed because I didn't really know what I was doing. I am right handed, and right eye dominate. Is it worth it to start right handed and re-learn? Or just keep with the left as it feels more natural?
