IF he got out to shoot at other places (and took the template rack with him) he would realize it's not his table that's the problem.
He is his own problem. No idea why he doesnt go out or is scared to out a vid of himself online. I can guarantee he plays better then a bunch of people on this...
Best feeling cue I have ever played with was my Timmy Scruggs. Steel joint piloted 5/16 14. Standard shafts with ivory ferrules. Ooof... still pull it off the wall and hit balls with it on occasion...
Deflects like a MFer, but feels awesome LOL.
From doing the initial assessment I completely agree... some of those crazy back cuts to a corner on the other side of the table do come up playing 1 pocket a fair bit, so those are useful for that, but that is about it.
Would have liked to have seen that initial assessment be based on more...
Actually before and after, like an overhead of the rack.
For the after, tell us where you hit the cueball, where the cueball hit the headball and what it did to get where it stopped.
Im sorry to hear about them passing.
All seriousness though, I think going out and matching up will be the best thing for you. Not to mention shooting with your neighbor's brother like you said.
There is only so much you are going to get out of shooting by yourself. Don't get me wrong, as...
There is a bit of a learning curve to the Outsville rack. You need to load the first 8 balls and then push forward slightly the lock them in place and put the last ball in place holding them all together.
It's the flattest of the template racks, but it also isnt the best for locking balls in...
