Caudron did some instructional vids from what I presume is / was home.

Now be kind fella's , I've been watching a few videos from years gone by where the ref is marking the pocket before the shot .
It's also one of the rules for playing in the VNEA pool league , it's a necessary rule in their way of thinking ????

I recall seeing in the past some YouTube videos of top players practicing, presumably on their home tables. If I can find some again I'll post them.

And perhaps Bert can help out on this since he knows them.

The fact is, he's a losing player in MC and therefore no help to the team

Everybody on the team is a losing player, and nobody covered themselves in glory the past few years. SVB is the least of the team's problems.

I'm a big fella and I love 60" cues. It feels a little silly that people think me with my 77" wingspan and The Lion should play with the same sized cue.

This is very helpful. I'm not especially tall but I have unusually long arms. I find on larger tables, shots toward the middle of the table should be reachable without needing my non bridge hand to be over the table, but with a short cue it feels like my arm gets stuck between the table and my body. With a longer cue my non bridge hand can stay outside the perimeter of the table and work freely. This situation doesn't come up as much on bar boxes, but I'd probably be more comfortable with a longer cue there as well.

This is what i get when clicking my name

I was too harsh, I didn't see this coming. I genuinely thought you were a lunatic. Anyway, I'd stop playing pool if I had to use a "pocket marker".

actually in onepocket its not that uncommon to forget which pocket is yours and shoot at the wrong pocket so i bought these for those times when i or my opponent needs it

I recall the story of Efren's first appearance as Ceasar Morales. Including playing all challenges back to back to back. Buddy was the only one to win a set.
Definitely a smooth stroke and operator as well.
Being from the north wet, I must mention The Hat. He had such a fluid stroke that was ????? similar to cracking a whip.

I agree with you Biloxi. I received #76 from Anton some time ago. While its not my main player, I do find myself picking it up often and shooting a few racks. Its a great hitting cue for sure. Wish I knew what tip was on it.
