Cape Cod Billiards Academy with DigiBall

I just wanted to share a link to Cape Cod Canal Billiards Academy, run and owned by John Nguyen, a certified PBIA instructor. He is borrowing the DigiBall from last year’s AZ passaround. Here he is working with a student on tip accuracy on a large screen TV.

It is a blessing to have a real academy business model in my community!

The very first glimpse of AI run-out intelligence

On the other hand, you people buy and sell cues like baseball cards.

Sourcing your own hardware helps reduce electronic waste because many people already have some of the equipment already.
The number of people who own 7 jump cues but complain about table time going from $8 to $9 per hour in pool is astonishing

The very first glimpse of AI run-out intelligence

I think that down the road Trackman-like sensors to analyze cue ball data – speed, contact point, spin rate, spin efficiency, etc. would be incredible…both standalone and also as an input to an AI program like this. With enough data, it could help modify pattern play given a person’s strengths. Is using inside English to go 3 rails to the center of the table a weakness of yours? Well, we should probably look for a pattern that doesn’t require it. I expect it’d be humbling to everyone under 600 (or maybe even higher) that their contact point isn’t actually what they thought it was.

The Black Book of Pool

The Black Book of Pool: Secrets of the competitive mind. A book I found and purchased on Amazon, Copyright 2026. It is 335 pages of insightful methods of quieting the mind to be able to let your skills take over without mental interference. I understand the concept as it was introduced to me while I was learning to throw darts. My question is: has anyone else reviewed this book and what do you think.
