Yes, t's sort of like thinking of your cue as a prosthesis.

And how you choose to attached it is going to determine how natural an extension of your body it becomes.

Had a friend who had a prosthetic arm from elbow downwards.
Loved to watch him “adjust his (for want of a better term) clamp”
If he was off consistently in one direction, he would twist the two pincers to a different angle until he could stroke through.
Surprisingly effective player also…. But, in all fairness, he was “good” before he lost the arm, and hated to quit the game.

I practiced this break about an hour straight for a challenge match on a 7' with a template, a few months ago. I could get the back ball to hit the 9 almost every time (maybe even every time). But making the 9 in the corner I only did it once in the hour.

In my case, the balls were in really good shape and maybe a year or so old, and the rack was brand new. I'd say it was a perfect rack, all balls frozen.

Forgive me for the dumb question, are these end or side ports for the air hookup? I'm assuming end but I've never saw one in person.

Probably not but it was good enough to send the back ball back through the rack. Maybe it came back off-center because the 3 wasn't quite touching the 7.

Better get it pre-approved.

HAMB is fine as long as it's purposeful, structured practice with some serious competition. The problem is the lack of quality time for most.
