I am not going to ask why almost everyone changes the subject. They do, so I'll just roll with it. Doesn't the system you are referring to have a name? Can you tell us what its name is, please. Thanks. I believe your 21 word description above is accurate. I don't think your 26 word...

Let me share a couple of points of view. First, let me repeat once again: "So, you know or should know that once you have decided your object ball and pocket, and the cue ball path and spot position, these parameters automatically allow you to determine precisely everything else you will need...

First, it should be obvious that perhaps the biggest problem is communication. Simple clear concise. An idea well conceived is an idea well expressed, as the saying goes. Most of what I see in this thread leaves much to be desired. So much so as to be unintelligible some times. The last...

The theory and study and practice of modern calculus may take a 574 page tome but no, not pool. Imagining many more tomes on the subject of pool, as well? And imagining someone/anyone reading/studying these many tomes? Clearly sounds like someone has way too much time on their hands. Makes...

All I have talked about here with any specificity is how to determine visually the precise object ball contact point once the cut angle has been decided. But let's say, if I understand correctly, you are changing the subject and you are attempting to describe an aiming system. Is this correct...

What I had hoped to do with this "promo-tease" that explains how to simply and accurately locate the object ball contact point once the cut angle has been decided upon, was to indicate the degree of insight that can be expect to be found throughout the upcoming US&E video. I had hoped to begin...

Is that actually you in your profile picture? Were you a regular tournament player at Hard Times Bellflower? I think I only entered in one or at most 2 of those tournaments. I actually remember maybe playing you in one once. It was on the other side of the wall, not on the pro tables. You...

In my explanation of how to accurately and simply determine the precise contact point once having decided the cut angle, where is the smoke and mirrors? Why is this not ultimately of any use? This is a technique/tool that will be further expounded upon in US&E. What I described in this...

No, I am not aware of this "tome." How many others in this forum are? Pool is not so complicated as to warrant 574 pages. Not even close. My description only took at most 3 short paragraphs. Probably could have deleted the enter key returns for spacing and just had 1 short single paragraph...

Ultimate SEEING and Execution can teach you how to: precisely determine the shot angle to pocket the object ball visualize the perfect ghost ball make the perfect cue ball hit. Did my "promo-tease" lessen or remove any doubt or at least perhaps suggest that keeping an open mind would be the...

You are not wrong. If the contact point remains the same you may need to adjust cue ball hit and stroke. Gorst is maybe like Shane, and like Efren and Earl once were. Mere mortals cannot even comprehend. Maybe they have become Enlightened Masters like Yoda.

I was completely unaware of the existence of this diagram. Was there any additional explanatory text. Tell us the details where you found it and any other information you have. I note that you stated that there was no mention of a "clock." Without utilizing this precise clock reference as I...

I hope the other forum members have been reading what some of your "friends" on this board have been saying: where they have been coming from. Do you still think they are good guys? What help have they offered in this thread? Check it out... I know it has only been at most just a day since...

The general consensus in this thread is that its forum members believe in sharing their pool knowledge and techniques to help other players. Here is a simple pool technique related question but a very important one. Imagine an object ball and cue ball anywhere on the table. You have decided...

"I think I'll have the special tonight." "Oh, excellent choice, sir. Tonight's special is crow. How would you like that cooked, sir." "Let's leave that up to the cook." "You are the adventurous type. The cook just loves a challenge."

Hey. I didn't start "micro-dot." It was attributed to Mark Wilson by a previous poster in this thread.

I have definitely decided that I will not be giving Ultimate SEEING and Execution away for free. It is and will be worthy, in my opinion, of as much respect as any other paid instructional video. Just not nearly as expensive. The market will decide. You know, when a player makes a really good or...

At Hard Times Bellflower there was a house pro, Dave Hemmah. Al "Little Al" Romero had his cue shop up stairs. He told me Dave has beaten several top pros. I believe local Tang Ho has as well. I am aware that there are some very good players that at any given place and time can occasionally...

I bring up Cole or Keith Thompson for 2 reasons: I think they are interesting stories and they emphasize a pool fundamental, usually. Cole was in his prime when he was about 18-19. That would make it around 1968-1969, or so. I am not going to go into what may have led to his pool shooting...

I mentioned that a few times I was freaked out watching Cole shoot. But never dwelled on it because there were too many other things about Cole himself and his game that were much more interesting. I likened his stance to a skeleton. It was because while I watched him stroking up making all...
