Fedor and SVB both played the one pocket at Texas Open. Fedor left for China Open and won. SVB played the 9 ball at skinny bobs where he finished 9th-12th. Maybe the field was stronger in the Texas Open? Hmmm

This is in reference to the pocket-lines, correct? I was specifically explaining that for kicking to a ball in 'no man's land'--say the middle of the table.

It's really just using the mirror system, but using the cue to aid the visualization. Some players will walk to perpendicular to the target ball, and then use the cue to measure to the plane of reflection (diamond line), double that, and then view back to the cue ball. I instead, stand behind the cue ball, put my cue tip over the target *in my field of vision* (not flat over it), and then follow the perpendicular (line) to the mirrored ball location. Then, I hold the cue out towards that spot, and bring it down over the rail to find the kick aimpoint. As I said, "quick and dirty", because the trade off for the target acquisition speed is accuracy!

What you have there is a clone, a fake, a hoax.

The genuine Mazerak prorotype is held at Smythsonean Museum, in a collection not on display. It has the Mazerak signature on the forearm.

I have the only known picture outside the archive, this is the first time it is being shown publicly. As you can see it is not completely carbon fiber. It is in fact a full splice carbon fiber into BEM, with a carbon fiber wrap.

Never heard of that museum, where is it?

I think you have to be careful if using the reflection of the bullet. You need to reflect through the diamonds.
