The Color of Money match EvsE

Wow.....many years ago now...may have been 20 year now......He was training a local at the time how to replace the rail wood..... He set up a EX Golden 8-ball GC I picked up and had stripped and refinished the aprins and base and had the rail trim ball return trim and pocket castings powder...

They still bank short

Too bad......They would have been better served to book Bluewater Resort Casino just a little north along the Colorado....That was the funnest pool tournament ever....nice casino and boat docks right outside the doors........finish a match......jump on a boat and fish until the next match.....If...

August is the worst month to pick for AZ and Yuma.....They won't be using swamp coolers....especially in August as it is Monsoon/Haboob....(google it)....August is the humid month in AZ.....There is nothing to see in Yuma so people won't venture outside of the Casino....Unless you are bringing a...

Technology took over......fading away is the days of "artistic cues".......Only about 35 years behind Golf when Persimmon woods started getting phased out by the "Burner"

In DCP's defense....based on the remote-ness of the picture........He may have to catch, pluck and cook his own chicken....and the Nearest Walmart may very well be 3 hours away. Heck with the Diamond....If I lived there I would have purchased a Kolb

Technically it is in Cali....(not Yuma).........I wonder if someone is booking it there so they can make a convenient under the radar trip right down the street into Santa Cecilia ......err....Algodones.....to see Cheech for some piss warm Chango.....or perhaps to pick up some company of the...

Not until after I posted....I see you corrected yourself....good job. Regarding head ball and second ball break.....I don't think OP is opposed to second ball break and even mentioned he does not need to crush the rack......OP was asking how to get into the center of the table. Center of the...

Ermmmm....You left out the..... "and then continue shooting".....part in your OP.....pretty sure those words have implications. 😉

Here is the real problem.....no matter what option you choose for that layout frozen to the rail and CB shooting off the rail at the other end .....You will be hard pressed to duplicate the shot any number of times since the slightest variation in the hit makes a drastic difference in the...

I am not really concerned with the math part of it......there is some feel to the shot including speed.....and I agree with you that head height may play a visual factor...(hopefully people don't take normal aim of shots with varying head heights) ......thus the cut comment from above post...

Here is a diagram of what I using as reference when looking at "bottom of ball" I use those points as a vertical axis in aiming. The bottom of the ball gives me a repetitive (easy to see) reference for aiming. L=Left C=Center R=Right For this shot I used a visual of L point of CB to R point...

I personally do not like using "pivot" methods any more than I have to....but here is an example of a specialty type shot that comes up and a "method" of CTE...(but not "Stan's" CTE) that can be applied...... I use this on really thin rail cut shots... say you are cutting the OB into the left...

This picture sums up my vision of "normal" aiming systems vs "string theory" (CTE) aiming. I lost count....how many new string theory books have been published? Genius though to latch on to something that needs endless revisions to sell suckers new books......but to come out and say you...
