With ball in hand could you have done a very soft straight-into-the-rail double kiss on the 7?

You should try it anyway. It is still a fun game even if you haven’t mastered any others. Straight rail and the free game are dominated by getting into the American position and maintaining it. Balkline eliminates this and forces you to learn returns right away. The American position is just a...

Things are going well with learning and I've made a lot of progress. I have to say that balkline is a lot of fun. Once you get the courage to draw lines on your table, you get a great game out of it.

OP, You probably watched Roy Pastor talking on Jeremiah Gage's "Cue the Experts". Both people are qualified instructors, and Jeremiah is also a friend of mine. Deliberate practice burns your brain and is uncomfortable. Deliberate practice is when you pick something difficult outside of your...

"I'd love to inherit Manuel Cue cue from when he won Kent County Amateur Tournament"

I had the idea of creating an air tag that screws in to the weight bolt threads of the butt. It’ll make your phone vibrate if there is too much distance between you and your cue. The idea wasn’t popular here.

More arrogance sir?

I am going to make a few of these, maybe 10 for starters. The plan is to have double as a shot clock and a score board. The idea is that since I need the wireless hardware for the shot clock to work, I can use the same hardware to make a wireless scoreboard system. Each players game that they...

Another thing to think about is that the tip-cueball interaction lasts 2ms or less. It takes approximately 15-30ms for your brain to process touch sensations from your hand. So everything you feel from a cue hit are literally the echos (acoustic vibrations) from an event 13-28ms in the past. If...

I second this, as I also don't have a table with pockets. We make up 15-20% of the market worldwide.

OP, We've spoken briefly on reddit before. Excellent work. As I am sure you are aware, the demographics for AZ Billiards and Reddit are different, which is good because both together give you a broad range of customer representation. Reddit users are younger (teens to 40) and more progressive...

My fault. Apologies.

I’ve read your book and your bio, and you seem to be very insecure about science and technology, mostly because you don’t understand it. Using the word ‘nerds’ just shows where your intolerant mindset is at, as if you were still in the back of the school bus. I don’t have any respect for the...

Call the Simonis North America office in Libertyville, IL and ask to speak to Felice. She is the account manager and handles most of the big accounts for them. I once asked if Power Blue was available. It is a nice color. She said no, and to get it they would have to dye an entire bolt. $16k...
