----I will update this thread when I add new vids----

These are some 9 ball ghost runs I've recorded at practice.
Ball in hand after break.

Would appreciate any comments on any runs or overall ^_^...



-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlnBNww8p2s
Cue: Poison AR5
-Simple and fun run...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCgEwA1UxlY
Cue: Poison AR5
-This one was fun too. The second shot - the 2-7 combo was the key because of getting shape on the 2.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLCNunkLofw
Cue: Lucasi Hybrid LH10
-Only potential problem was getting a good angle on the 6 and on the right side of the 7. Fun run ^_^.

Run 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIjfyyNhivU
Cue: Lucasi Hybrid LH10
-This was a nice and fun run. At the end I almost scratch,
but as you can see I didn't really hit the cue ball that hard and
wanted it to stop about straight in for the 9. Problem is this cloth
was really new and really fast.
Even though the cue ball didn't go in, I ended up with a tough shot
on the 9 where I had to shoot from the pocket area of the rail,
cut it in and watch out for scratching. Got some claps hehe...

I can only watch the first two videos from my iphone, but from what I saw, your game would probably benefit quite a bit by playing for more angle on your shots. You get too straight on a lot of your shots and it leads to you having to settle for longer shots on the next ball.

Yes I agree, I sometimes tend to do that and it can be bad. In the 3rd and 4th video however, I leave more angles, for when you can see those vids. It usually depends on the complexity of the frame for me.

You seem to play good, all you have to do, as you may know i am sure, practice your break, and keep CB in the middle of the table after, otherwise you will not win matches on the long run.

Yup, I'm pretty fast, sometimes even faster, but depends on the match and shot(Of course I take time to think when I have to hehe) :)... Thanks btw, but what does "on buckets" mean?

Buckets are large pockets, easier to pocket balls in. If they are over 4.5 inches most players would call them buckets.

Oh, I see...
http://www.dynamic-billard.com/en/p...-table-dynamic-competition-9-ft-mahogany-pool - This is the table I practice on. I have no info on how big the pockets are, but in the nationals and other tournaments here we play on Dynamic 3 and those tables have much smaller pockets and are great tables.

Look like a copy of the GC3 with cut corners. For 4.5" pockets you will be able to just fit two balls in the corners, but they will not pass past the opening, no space around them at all. Many recreational rooms have pockets that are close to 5" which you can make balls in with very little aim.

I tried placing 2 balls, and there's about 1 cm left.
