[request] poolometry coupon

[scratchandrun]

recently came across poolometry and I like the work done there.
specifically the aiming with speed banking system. even though there are way more numbers to memorize than my bad memory can handle I think it's worth a try

so, even though it seems that the full download is in a permanent discount mode does anyone have any coupon for it I can apply on top?

for context I have gone through Dr Dave's pages for sliding 1 rail banks and I have the banking with the beard book.
I find poolometry to be more complete resource.

thanks

There is no system for banking, you need to adjust to different tables and situations, that is only done through experience. The "systems" get you a close baseline, but to actually make a ball you just need to see the situation and table/rail type and how it plays and then adjust to pocket the ball.

Anyone that talks about a banking system has only developed it properly on a single table. For example, there are quite a few of the "banking with the beard" banks in the videos he did will not work properly on a 4.5 in or smaller pocket and are greatly affected by the table and rail type.

The cloth too. Freddie talks a lot about the nap/grain of the old style woolen cloth. Newer worsted cloth doesn't have the grain/direction of the old stuff.

Yep, cloth too, but I wanted to keep it a bit simpler LOL Banking is even harder to do with a system than aiming, I mean you have all the issues you do with aiming, plus rails, ball collisions, rail induced spin, rail reaction, rail condition and type, etc... I went to a few lessons with pros, in one of them Ralf Soquet was teaching kicking and banking and the tables at the pool hall he had to aim about a diamond off what he was used to when doing some 3 rail kicks.

having a baseline to start from is the way to go imo. feeling can kick in after you know the general direction in which you have to align.
of course every table is different but that does not make HAMB(anks) have any advantage over a tested system (be it in a small number of tables) that you can use as a calibration.
He even has a section on how to adjust for the table you are playing for.

This idea is out there for quite some time. many players when they start playing in a new table will do some test banks like the classic 3 in the corner to see how much off the table is playing.
