You should be able to do this shot with your eyes closed. Its just firm follow, at the right cut angle, nothing more.
Agreed.

You get new cloth every 6 months! You should be able to do this shot with your eyes closed. Its just firm follow, at the right cut angle, nothing more.Dave,
How did you hit the shot at the .08 second mark? It's the shot where the CB bends around after it comes off the rail.
There is absolutely NO WAY I could ever get that to happen on my Gold Crown IV.

Dr. Dave, when looking at carom shots, do you use the "peace sign" to determine deflection? In particular, I'm talking about carom shots where two balls are close together on the rail and you're not sure whether to hit the first ball thicker or thinner?
Yes, nice of lil Ko to concede to a upcoming player with smiles and hugs.dang than kien impressed in beating lil ko. played faster than i remember too. i was thinking as lil ko got up from his seat to get out of the line of sight, he's such a good sport, never heard a bad word about him
