Develop a routine for each shot to keep in rhythm and not rush your shot or make some other mental mistake.
Read the technique section of the forum where all the tips have been posted before? lol
Sing a song, in your head, on the approach to help with tempo and letting the mind go blank.
Practice, practice, practice...but with a purpose.
Maintain your equipment properly.
Above all else, ALWAYS HAVE FUN

- Like someone else said, developing a pre-shot routine is very important. It's just like shooting free throws in basketball....you wan't to have the same exact routine every time.
- Don't dwell on bad shots or bad breaks. Forget them and move on to and concentrate on the next shot.
- Don't be afraid to trust your judgement and adjust....if you think the lane's drying up and it's time to move left (or right for you lefties)...do it! Adjusting 1 frame too early is better than doing it 5-10 frames too late.
- Set challenging but reachable goals for yourself. Write them down and keep track of them. It can be goals for the whole season, a tournament, or even just a practice session (for example, "today I'm going to convert the 10 pin 70% of the time").
Have a short memory...forget the bad shots and don't get too amped up over the good ones.

I don't necessarily agree with this one but I completely understand what you're saying. I try to remember all of my shots, good or bad. For me, if I make a bad shot, it often helps me focus to make good ones. I think the main point is not to let your emotions screw you up. Don't get too messed up in the head or don't get too cocky.Originally Posted by The German Shepherd
That is correct. I have seen dozens upon dozens of players get so angry with a bad shot or a tap that it totally messes them up for the rest of the series...

Lol I've done that it hurts like hell.
Cool nice tips. ..didn't notice they had a forum for tips /techniques I'm new to this. .....I actually saw one kid in a tournament at nutmeg bowl in ct who talked to himself every shot as the way to keep tempo....
