First lesson, how to level your cue on the table when taking a shot. Typical beginner error. I see these often when people are hitting the air multiple times after wasting a lo ng time aiming. Also, it helps to start with a short stroke and work from there.

Equal and opposite momenta to the sides.

Yeah, but that isn't what you wrote. Momentum is conserved, but the amount out movement is not the same for all cues.

Without a doubt. % Efren

I loved watching Shannon play. Bugs. Strawberry. Incardona. All fantastic, intelligent players.

Efren was NOT the best one pocket player in the 80’s and 90’s. From the pro ranks, Hopkins, Varner, Matthews would be at the top. Mizerak was good one pocket player. Fusco and Diliberto would also have to be mentioned, as would Sigel. Not as well known for one pocket moves, but Grady would always say that Sigel didn’t know a thing about one pocket, but his shot making skills and 14.1 skills had him winning a few pro tournaments when there was hardly any tournaments. Grady would say that Sigel could shoot an 8-out shooting out of a paper bag.

The gambling crowd would bet on Ronnie Allen, Shorty Johnson, Steve Cook, Strawberry, Bugs, etc.

How much

What we need for this event is a list of matches that were on YouTube with links to the videos. Wading through all of the streams is tiring. Is there some way to find particular matches?

Anybody else then. Take the contact lines from an open rack of balls. Assign the fractions to all. What you got; by tomorrow.

Okay.
All I'm saying is you be you in your progression through the game.
I hope it serves you well.
I have a different approach if that's okay with you.

How young is this man?

There must be something wrong with your browser, if you're referring to the YouTube video linked in the OP.

He's about 30.
