I'm gonna need to see those on to believe you. :lovies:

I have to say that 3 ball can help your game. When I was trying to get my kids started, the way I would teach them to plan ahead was to put 3 balls out and get them to work backwards from the last ball and shoot the pattern out.

Welcome to the forum sunnyone.

Thoughts and prayers your way Fastford. Hope your little one is doing well.

If you can find them, the Mike Sigel videos "perfect pool" and "runout pool" both have very informative sections on straight pool.

Paul, I like your breaking rules for 9 ball. I tried it with a friend, and although he was skeptical at first, he ended up liking it as well.

Joey, I switch from a TOUGH 9 foot Olhausen to loose bar boxes every week. The biggest thing that helps me while adjusting to the speed of the smaller tables is to use the big corner pockets to allow myself to hit a ball fatter or thinner to control how far whitey rolls after contact. And as...

On April 7, I upped my high run for the year to 23. Baby steps I guess. The miss that stopped the run made me sick when I missed it. Simple shot.

I voted anything over $20 takes me out of my comfort zone. My finances are in bad shape for the last couple years, and that has lowered my comfort level considerably.

Well, the BCA thinks I'm a 9 (of 10 possible), and the poolhall has me as an A player for tournaments.

Generally, I try to take the easiest shot available, and use the easy shot to get position on the tougher balls. My theory is that it's easier to use a simple shot to move the cueball around off of.

I use a LePro milk dud as a break tip, and my break works fine and helps me win matches. My break works as well as the guys who still use phenolic break tips.
