I gave CBL a college try and it’s just strange. OBL for-life here. And whenever my mechanics seem to go awry, nothing makes them sharpen up than a conscious effort on eye pattern and focusing on the OBL.

The only times CBL makes sense to me is massé/jumping but those will not be in my repetoire any time soon.

Or maybe shots where the OB is less than 3” away or kicking, but pretty sure I’m looking through the CB anyway.

There are plenty of examples to suggests that is true. But, if it was true, you would never have a pretty much effective but complicated road system that we have. If they were idiots, transportation would have to be something like trains, planes, and buses but not to let just about anyone have a car. Despite the idiocy, people seem to handle it ok, even drive without thinking at times (!) and still I can drive each day and very likely not get in an accident. There should be ten times the amount of accidents if they were as dumb as sometimes they appear to be.

You make a point, but you have to admit that driving doesn't require a lot of intelligence or skill, just attention.

What is good for you may not be good for me.
Try this little experiment, I have.
Set up 5 everyday routine shots at 3ft to object ball and 3ft to the pocket with a dead straight shot as 1 of them.
A total of 6 ft .
Hit each shot with left, right , follow, draw and punch.

Hit each shot using both methods NEVER watching the object ball enter the pocket.
The best way to do this is close your eyes as soon as the tip strikes the cue ball. Immediately, no hesitation, not looking at the follow through, nothing.
Don’t fool yourself for a millisecond close them immediately or you’re wasting your time.
DO NOT WATCH THE OBJECT BALL ENTER THE POCKET YOU WILL HEAR IT OR NOT.
Post your results for further study of mankind.

I also shoot right handed and I'm left eye dominant, when firing a rifle I'm left handed same thing with a bow but i shoot a hand gun right handed weird.

Here's the thing. It won't be unheard of that some day a substance is found that is actually healthy for humans that also has other great benefits, like better memory capacity, great focus, or who knows what else.

Are you telling me that you refuse to put any beneficial substance in your body?

Society has programmed us to view certain things as bad, unless of course it's sanctioned by our Gov or the medical industry. I say, use your own head and weigh out the pros and cons and make your own decision.

That is because EVERYTHING has side effects, which includes approved medication. It's just that when you are sick, the pros outweigh the cons. But if you are healthy, that is very rarely the case, especially long term.

If you drive your car like it was a race car with the needles in the red, all the time and breaking hard and late in every corner, what happens? Disregarding speeding tickets and possible accidents, your cars important parts wear down faster. Speeding up the metabolism, or messing with the neurotransmitters in your brain will not be healthy over time. There are no magic tricks, the body is amazing as it it is.

Snapped a quick photo at home this morning of my NV cues. The one on the right was an old beater…my buddy had to replace the buttcap, and frankly I love the Delrin. Best $150 for a cue I ever paid.

eurotour finals coming up in i think 2 hours. grabe vs filler/kaspar

for some reason they choose 8-ball in this eurotour and i don't think filler has missed more than 2 balls throughout the tournament

Instead of referring to it as, “changing my dominant eye” I would refer to it as, “focusing with my non-dominant eye.” And you absolutely can do it probably should do it occasionally.

I’m right hand dominant. Throwing with my left hand doesn’t change which hand is dominant. If I was facing North and a dart board was directly to my West, I would likely be more accurate using my non-dominant hand to throw a dart at the board. Situations come up in pool that require similar adjustments.
