  I wish all my team members paid attention from start to finish, watched the jack go down, and didn&apos;t spend so much time chatting. It&apos;s noticeable that the best players in the club don&apos;t talk very much to their opponents during the game.

  It&apos;s probably just my way of achieving accurate length..but I assess the jack distance, focus on it just long enough to feel confident I have calculated it correctly, then I look for the aim point, make note of it.. reference back to the jack, then back to the aim point, then my eyes drop to a point on the carpet or green a distance away from me on the delivery line but where I can still see the aim point in the top half of my field of vision, this is me doing visualization..I then &nbsp;make my delivery towards that aim point...the reason why I do it this way is to avoid looking at the jack, if I look at the jack at the point of delivery the likelihood is that I will bowl narrow..and my bowl will pass across the front of the head...I have tried all different techniques, this one seems to work for me... thank you for you continued videos Richard 👍👍👍👍

  Thanks for the reminders. &nbsp;Next time I roll up to practice. I&apos;ll focus entirely on the jack and see how I do

  If you were trying to trail the jack by playing a yard-on shot, would you still look at the jack or a spot a yard behind ie where you want the jack to end up?

  What I&apos;m aiming for is intuitive weight control, once I&apos;ve embedded the jack position in my mind&apos;s eye. It&apos;s as if i were throwing a ball to someone&apos;s hand...except not as easy 😆

  Why everything u drop the bowls it&apos;s sounds so rough...not in smoothy ways...if played on the heavy grass I think its hard to target the distance..am I right here?
