Hi Guys
When taking your three fingers off the handle to give you the opportunity to spin the ball more, is it just a case of experience of getting used to this when bringing the fingers back into play for the next shot?

Hi Steve,
Yes I find a lot of players forget to bring their fingers back to start with which leads to an awkward next ball.
Just practice that transition and it will soon become really natural.
