He was shooting from the head spot with the cue ball one balls width to the side of the spot. Do you mean you could cut that shot in either side pocket? The frame at 6:18?

I've searched the forum and haven't found insight on this one, and would appreciate your insights.

I have several leather burnishers (Porper's, Last 4 Ever, and Tiger). During a night out if a shaft feels like it's starting to drag, I use the more coarse side first, and then the smooth side.

Especially for the Tiger with it's light color, I can easily see how the coarse side picks up the chalk and residue that's removed from the shaft during cleaning. I understand that's expected.

So one question is, once a leather burnisher has picked up this chalk and residue aren't you just wiping that back into the shaft when using the burnisher the next time?

And is there a way to clean a leather burnisher to remove the chalk and residue?

Thanks in advance!

Terry

I think the last shot in my video shows that even the tough side should be possible.

Mark Estiola just knocked out SVB (5th/6th) in the 8-Ball event, 8-5. Shane lost 2 games on dry breaks and 2 resulting from poor position. Estiola played well.

What else? The most important. Which side? One side would be much harder.

The side pocket. What else? And I don't remember that he ever put chalk on the object ball, though he may have FAIK.
