My bar box break has cobwebs.
Being the old guy now, my go to game would be last pocket 8 ball played to BCAPL rules.
I earned The Master rating in the Northwest playing bar box 8 ball on the Oregon coast. (A fine vacation I might add).
SHooter cue always with second ball break. It only works on some tables. Well moves the 8 ball, it works on the theory of leaving a technical puzzle that requires Jui Jitsu like attack....and or defend or Both.... Plus my break and make a ball was Good.

That race car line is about right, most of us want the car before we learn to drive it. I'm with you on precision over power, that's the lesson I'm taking from this thread. Do you still break with your shooter, or did a break cue win you over in the end?Oh excuse me I am instant giggles as my skim hits Break Cue!!!!! I an still giggles.
Ivory tip and Cole broke with his shooter. As precision overcomes power, just like Jiu-jitsu.
Elmer glue requires time to cure when done properly it's good as or goider than new.
Break cues are High performance instruments just like a tuned race car ..... most want the car before learning to drive it.

That's a great story, and it fits what I'm seeing. The power guys couldn't solve the little tables, and then the old fella comes along at three-quarter speed and the balls just find the pockets. I hadn't thought about it the way you put it, the speed and the spin changing the rebound angle off the rails. Do you break softer on the bar box yourself now, or was that a lesson you only watched the once?While I haven't read a word of the responses (yet). The question triggers a favorite memory of just that nature.
I was spectator at a weekend 9 ball tournament at the Hunt and Fish in Portland.er uh sub burb maybe. (Think it was Beaverton)
The 7 foot tables were stymie ing the power breakers. The best in the Northwest had power breaks. None could solve the situation, then along came Don Wirtiman. The older Elmer Fud looking guy. He broke about 3/4 speed (top speed for the old guy wasn't that fast either
The velocity and rotation of the balls striking the rails changes the rebound angle significantly.

The interbreeding still happens between H. sapiens and neanderthal, its usually at closing time when you are wearing beer goggles.
