theoretical pool shots vs practical pool shots

I would think that would fall somewhere under altering the playing conditions of the pool table.

It is a foul if you attempt to modify provided equipment without the permission of a referee. - CSI

If compressing points were legal, it could be done to every pocket before every shot.

If templates racks ever get approved for Olympics I will start a public protest.

If its just used to quickly assess speed on new players for scouting thats a hustle amateurs should be warned about.

I am arguing the rulebook for table conditions. Someone is sneaking one past the goalie.

Not at all. Contemplate the intent of the rule, and it makes sense.

I just want everyone to know that I am the person in the video shooting that shot.
I haven't seen it in any books or magazines.

I wanted to document it first. Its not by anonymous. Its by justnum.

You just reinvented a 100 year old shot

I agree with the findings, they were easy to replicate. I will preserve it in a more updated format.

Template racks are devices that alter that natural conditions of the pool table.
Is that similar to manipulating the rail?
