Hello, for those of you who use contact point aiming systems, where you first find the contact point on the object ball
by drawing a line from the pocket through the object ball, here is my question.
Let's say you have a long shot , and the object ball is a solid color. You step away from the object ball, after finding the contact point, and head
back to the cue ball which is say - 4 diamonds away. How do you keep track of that contact point on the object ball with your eyes? Thank you.

The answer to OP's question of how you can keep track of an object-ball contact point that is many feet away? Use an object ball with 110 multi-colored, multi-shaped spots. Assign a contact point to one of the spots and it will be visible several diamonds away.
Using this ball, it is also not necessary to move or adjust the ball after its been hit and stops to mark where a new contact point is. Line up the new contact point and there will be another colored spot there that can be easily seen the length of the table.
