Unorthodox style

Frank Ford Asked 13 years ago

Hi, my footwork & handle grip along with my style is unorthodox, people suggest to adopt the technical ways but I'm not really comfortable with that. My game is allowing me to lead the competition although I think I will need to reinvent myself go to a higher level, is there many world champions who were unorthodox?

Hi Frank,

Unfortunately there are not really any World Champions that are too unorthodox.  The principles that are developed have come about for a reason and that is why the strokes that you learn initially are so important to get you to the highest level.

It will not be an easy task to change your techniques but if you want to really progress to a high level it will be an important step.
