    What a tool!!!

    Watching a lot of the top players on the streams, they were demonstrably and deliberately calling anything that wasn't a straight in shot, even dead wired combos. I imagine it was a point of emphasis at the payers meeting. Sent from my LM-V600 using Tapatalk

    Neither of those things apply here. Your offering solutions to a non existent problem. Tips wear and then you reshape them. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

    Cue Chalking Crutch

    It happens with all the tips I've used. I think you have an exaggerated notion of what I'm describing. The tip doesn't actually go flat in the center it just flattens out from the nickel I prefer maybe closer to a quarter. It's not a big deal to reshape it. I typically play a solid 6 or 7 hours...

    Rack experts, what are they doing?

    If your opponent is racking for you and he's touching the one ball after the rack is off, you should inspect the rack and see where he's putting the gaps, they'll be there. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

    Rack experts, what are they doing?

    Doodaddin' the rack. They'll claim they're trying to refreeze the head ball, but they are really making advantageous gaps. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

    JJ Needs some new commentary

    That was the best lesson I ever learned. You have to be absolute in your commitment to whatever you choose to do. If your unsure you should not be down on the shot. I get up and readress the shot if any distracting or negative thought creeps in during that final phase. Sent from my LG-H918...

    I shouldn't have worded my answer as an absolute. I don't doubt the validity of your experience, as you are the one who experienced it. I personally have never come across a tip that will keep its radius as it is played with, regardless of manufacturer or hardness. I think some people get used...

    I'm not sure what you mean by "fire starting routine". If it's a reference to grinding with the chalk, that is certainly not the technique that I use. The milk duds I use don't really need scuffing, the regular shaping keeps them holding chalk just fine. Through the course of normal play, for...

    JJ Needs some new commentary

    You need to only focus objectively on the task at hand of executing the shot in front of you and stop worrying whether someone else thinks it's right or wrong. Two pro players will likely play the same pattern differently, doesn't mean one was right and one was wrong. Visualize the shot going...

    That is why I included this in my post: "Of course, if your not chalking correctly or often enough that margin for error decreases and what normally may have been close enough will result in a miscue." Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

    Cue Chalking Crutch

    I look at the tip when a miscue occurs, not to blame the tip, but to understand where the contact was on the tip. That will tell me how the tip hit the cue ball and how far of the hit was. This is important feedback to diagnose and correct the stroking error. It is also to examine any...

    Both things are true. Chalk is functionally essential to prevent miscues and without it English of any kind would be near impossible. For most players technique is far more often to blame for a miscue. Meaning no amount of chalk would make up for the faulty stroke. Of course, if your not...

    Cue Chalking Crutch

    This simply isn't true. I prefer an exact nickel shape. My tip flattens consistently in the middle and slightly rounds at the edges of the tip as I play. Reshaping back to a nickel shape is necessary through the life of the tip. I need my tip to be exact and I use it exceptionally well when it...

    Alcano and Raga banned from Sharks events

    Watching the video, my first thought wouldn't be that the fix was in. The fact that they banned them and publicly posted it on fb would lead me to believe that they're going on more than just this video evidence. My only question is what was at stake? Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

    No. He was attempting to salvage someone elses mistake. He should have tried the top pallet of the stack. You can manipulate those things pretty good if you've got experience. Careful manipulation of the tilt and side shift could've got that done, laborious but fun. I drove fork for 5 years in...
