Thank you, Mr.J. My google-fu isn't totally in the toilet after all. Maybe it's time to drag out the trusty Dremel. pete

So...where can one buy one of these verschlugginner ball markers? pete

WTF? Just my op sign from the army. No offense intended. pete

I enjoy watching Mike play. "Every shot an adventure" describes my game perfectly. Of course, Mike's skill makes the likelihood of success much higher. "Screw the points, go for the pin" mentality makes for fun spectating. pete

Mariners up 5-2 in the 5th. They've gone on a bit of a tear since dealing Ichiro to the Yanks. pete

Best gadget is a snooker style chalk pocket, chosen after I almost poked my eye out with the pocket chalker. Also a Gator Grip, Ultimate Tip Tool and an all purpose scuffer, carried in a small zip bag. pete

Worked on me. Of course my banking skills are more feeble than my kicking game, which would make Little Joe weep. The kicker, though, was seeing you and Fig pulling on the same oar. I figure that's as close as this old atheist will get to seeing the rapture. pete

music Full disclosure: Old White Guy here. I prefer silence. Tolerate softly played blues or light classical. Something you couldn't or wouldn't dance to. Military and motorcycle experience were not kind to my hearing, so much contemporary songwriting is lost on me. An exception is...

Not too large a problem. My Sterling Wave 4x8 case ($150 @ Billiards Warehouse right now) has a 32" tub, plus an extra inch available under the cover. Easily accommodates my 60" Allers. pete

Flexing the forearm at the elbow from the paused position at the end of the backstroke. "close the elbow" is a positive affirmation of what I want to happen after Pre-shot routine and dropping"into"the shot. I don't want to jump up on the shot, I don't want my grip tightening,my wrist turning...

elbow drop I concentrate on closing my elbow to the max extent the shot and my body allow. Doing this automagically minimizes the elbow drop issue. Focusing on what I don't want to happen, facilitates its happening. pete

Dan Louie. Fierce competitor. Perfect gentleman. pete

Sterling Wave 4x8. Commodious, protective, light, easy carry. Well executed. Fiendishly well designed interior. pete

Got to see the dog in action, live! Didn't get an autograph. Sadly, Robin's Billiards, Monroe, Washington, a friendly place with four Gold Crowns, is no longer in business. pete

No Munchkin Ms Rousey is conspicuously absent from the brackets. What's up w/that? pete

Lincoln City Okay...Okay Marie's Husband is as relentless at the keyboard as he is at the table! He's driven me up from lurkdom to cop to heading to Oregon on Monday. Also for a week of singles and teams. At a buck and a half for a sixth of a big vacation rental to be shared with my league...

Great thread! While screwing around with pivot methods, I discovered that cut shots can be viewed as triangles. The triangle is formed by: the target, the point on the OB equator farthest from the target and the point on the CB equator closest to the target. The target and OB contact point...
