    curving an object ball....

    Lou not to stir the pot but I think I have the opposite opinion on this as most of the bank players seem to not want clean conditions. They want the balls dirty as they can get more bite transfer more action to the OB and get more action on the OB from the rail. I think the best player play the...

    curving an object ball....

    I graphed out the path from that analysis software. This broken apart so it shows the X and the Y separately. Definitely is curving and it curves the whole way across the table not just by the rail.

    curving an object ball....

    John this is elvi from Indy. Hope you are doing well down there in the promised land. I was wondering if you would post another video of the same type of shot with no other balls other than the cue ball and the single object ball. Try to get as big a bend as possible. I was running this...

    Ball polisher

    My buddy and I made a bucket polisher we were not impressed. Purchased engineered solutions can be very good and they cost more for a reason. I have a ballstar it does 8 balls at a time. I paid 400+tax. My buddy now has the dual platter diamond that does all 16 balls. He paid a little over 500...

    History of the IPT

    I think the IPT was a sustainable biz model if they got a TV deal with live pool and online casino advertising. Those funds were not so large if they attracted a larger amount of traffic to a high cash flow business. Same as snooker when they had smokes and liquor advertising. Those amounts...

    Mirror Image Bank/Kick Sighting Trick

    Pool balls are not laser beams, rails are not mirrors. I guess my initial point is a ball being banked at any real speed will have a tendency to hook off the rail not roll straight. Not meaning any slight to the original poster. That being said the geometry of splitting the shot in half the...

    Setting A High Run Goal

    I would suggest to you tbird that one spot on the is hit but what spot is that for this shot and can a player make that OB enter the same pocket location by hitting more than one spot for sure. Pool balls are not laser beams and mirrors. Speed, spin, humidity, dirty balls lots and lots of...

    Setting A High Run Goal

    My quality of aim is suspect. Also my aim location and ball speed need improvement. When I notice issues or potential problems I need to then see the positive way to get past that issue and last visual should always be the successful positive. Visualization of the intent with conviction then...

    Setting A High Run Goal

    Myself, I ran a 52 earlier in the year. It was on a GC with dirty cloth, mismatched balls and generous pockets at a pool room near one of my customers. It was the only 50+ I have ran. Shortly after that 52 my work got busy my table got covered and I fell out of practice. I got my table mostly...
