I saw somewhere around 20 exhibitions by Willie. They all followed a similar if not identical pattern. He'd miss a couple times and let the sacrificial lamb get a few balls then run 100+ and out. He never continued. He did this every single time. He went around the country for years doing...

Who are these people that believe it's more difficult equipment? The cloth alone makes up for the few extra inches in length probably ten times over. You think the distance would bother Willie?

It's JMO. JUST MY OPINION. I assumed you knew what it meant. My bad. No, I don't need any. The last paragraph of post #26 is in clear and precise English. That was and still is MY OPINION. If I have a reason, factual or otherwise, it was stated in that paragraph. Much of my upcoming book...

What are you talking about? "why not use the players bridge hand as an aiming aid, as you wrote?" No, I did not write that. Please read what I actually write and stop telling me I wrote something different. I gave a synopsis of the function of the bridge hand without going into any detail and...

When I say, nope double o, you're way too smart for this dumb pool player, that doesn't mean that I lied. Another reading and comprehending mistake by you. Book review is getting closer, bet you can't wait. Are there any sticks and balls in the book or are all the pics of your hand with pens and...

Nope double o, you're way too smart for this dumb pool player.

Thanks for the reply. I'm not an instructor just a pool player. I do help people out now and then if they ask. Every poolroom I've ever hung out at I was/am the go to guy when someone has a question. That's my only qualification. As for the questions and answers on this forum I don't really...

So, I read post 21 and 22 and see very little agreement between what BRKNRUN wrote and what you wrote. Curious as to how he interprets it. Your book is supposed to arrive next Monday or Tuesday so my review should be posted by Friday. My guess is it will be very similar if not identical to that...

Just a quick review of all this nonsense. You in post 5: Plop down your bridge hand onto the shot and shoot without practice strokes. Me in post 15: With a beginning player, if they just plop that bridge hand down on the shot/aim line and then fire away everything will be hunky dory. You in...

That could be because while pocketing in 9B may be more demanding, precise position is not that critical. The fine position touch needed in 14.1 is very difficult to recapture after a layoff.

That's an awful lot of words but once again you're missing the point. My original contention is with this: With a beginning player, if they just plop that bridge hand down on the shot/aim line and then fire away everything will be hunky dory. Guess what, it doesn't work that way. It's...

Go back to my post #6 and try once again to understand what I wrote. If you're unable to do that it's pointless to have a conversation. End of story. I talk to various people every day and never have any problem with them understanding, at least in general terms, what it is I'm trying to convey...

I wasn't discussing aim or anything else with you. Nor did I object to you mentioning anything. In the future please attempt to read and understand what I actually wrote, not your interpretation of same. Here's a news flash. Just because the bridge hand is on the shot line doesn't translate...

Yeah, well, I actually let plenty of his nonsense go except when it comes to outright lies and/or fabrications.

Just curious but how many students have you had who've had catastrophic loss of one eye.

Well, at least you gave a link, something you've never done before. So,even though you're playing a semantics game as usual, I'll let that slide for the moment. As for the second assertion, the fact that the thumb and forefinger are astride the shot line doesn't do a whole lot to ensure the...

Sorry but I've never heard the term "bridge aim" mentioned by you or anyone else. I'm sure I could have missed it so if you could provide links to these multiple threads it would be appreciated. Always looking for new aiming methods. A more thorough explanation of the concepts described in your...

More than one. Reading and comprehending deficiencies run rampant on this forum.

The game can be more enhanced by the rules. Appletons World Pool Series used the take what you make rule. That alone changes the dynamic. Watch some matches from those tournaments and you'll see some amazing runouts. Last Pocket is also a great game but long end games are prohibitive for...

Depressing is right. If I had to pick one guy to shoot a shot for my life it would be Dennis. Miss him.
