Double the Distance Aiming ???

Yes, this is correct. And yes, I use the 3D points because thats where the contact/opposite contact points are in reality, so for me it's easier to just use their real positions and not flatten it out. But in theory it's the same whether you flatten the y-axis out or not, the x-axis position of the GB center is what matters at the end, no matter how you get there.

The only caviat with that image is that the real contact point position would be different for that cut shot, but it's besides the point. The method is what you asked about, and the description was correct, even if the image has an incorrect judgement of the contact point.
yes my diagram was more about the gist of things
i did not measure things out precisely

Shipping is insane on about anything. Im a wal mart plus member….they shop for me and deliver it for 50 a year and I get free paramount tv and free shipping on anything and wal mart will have about anything like Amazon now. I have a little money but I will NOT pay 36 bucks for shipping on anything. Ill live without it.

What's your favorite pool memory from 2025?

Pick me I'm now a bar league pool player because I don't have a 4 1/2' x 9' table within 120 miles one way .

When I did stop in at Brothers Billards where they do have both 7' and 9' tables a friend offered to playa few racks of 8 ball on a 9' table , it had only been 25 years or close to it since I last played on a 9' table at that time because of family obligations .
When it was said and done I won more games than I lost . later on I played in the Big Sky State Games Senior Division and finished 4th out of 35 players , yes those matches were played on bar diamond bar tables at best around home all I've got to play on regularly are valley tables not my favorite but such is life .

As for gambling I do when its a tournament and I've placed in the money more times than not even when there's been so called or self proclaimed " road players " entered .

Many years ago when I lived near the Hardin Corner Pocket and yes in those days I played on the 4 1/2' x 9' tables instead of the bar boxes I was asked to come down to a bar downtown as two " road players " were beating everyone for whatever they had been playing for .
One was called Dakota the other Meryl it was a double elimination tournament the game 9 ball single game and the entry fee wasn't to much $ 10.00 maybe $15.00 ? Anyway I played and beat the locals and then I had to play Dakota and Meryl long story short I walked out with the cash and both of them shook my hand and they both said they had under estimated me , sadly we never got to play again and I believe both are long gone before their time .
Even the bar this took place in also is gone its a Memorial Park for a fallen Police officer who also was a friend of mine back in those days , even the Corner Pocket is a empty building and the owners have also passed away .
Thx for sharing. Same story in southern ky too bar tables and mostly recreational drinkers on them.

I sell a lot of hats and USPS ground will be $5 - 6 cross country for a baseball cap in a 6x6x6 box. Most are 7 - 8oz w the weight of the box included. The cheapest anything can be shipped via ground is like $4.40 if it's 3oz or less. From MI to IN for it to be $38 in shipping via ground it'd have to be like 30+ lbs of crap.
Hey hey, now! I’ve been looking to replace my “More Cowbell” hat for a couple few years now to no avail.

You wouldn’t happen to have the means to bang that out- More (on top) cowbell pic with a drumstick (in the middle) and Cowbell! (on bottom)? Not bubble letters, but a similarly jaunty font.

Mayhaps the hat would even be corduroy?
