@Slick53 so does that mean you want to sell it to me? I sent you a direct message. You can find it at the top of the page with the little envelope. Thanks!
If this is true why play anybody? And you seem to have decreed no player or even junior - boy _or_ girl can catch a stroke and give Fedor a run for it, maybe win the set.There is not a single person in the world that learns by getting their brains kicked in while losing their $$$. Either you're a massive fan boy sitting there with stars in your eyes or you're pissed off that you're losing your cash.
What killed the slip stroke.... Instruction.Seems like it wasn’t uncommon during the era of Mosconi and a bit beyond that. I don’t know of any greats from later generations using it. My knowledge is of course limited to what I’ve been able to gather from videos I’ve seen. In modern generations I can’t think of a single player using it. What caused it to more or less go extinct?
Thanks. I watched it frame-by-frame and it looks like his hand has not yet moved back on the butt at the instant the stick hits the ball. The stick has not yet started to slide forward in his hand. (It would be clearer from a side view.) If that is true, the idea of throwing the cue for a straighter stroke is, well, not consistent with reality.
