    Simple aiming system cont...

    I have used pretty much this method (with a slight variation) of shooting for a long time now....Every time I try a different method I end up going back to this since it is so easy to use I always start center CB.....I have tried to describe it multiple times on various threads but it has always...

    Aiming for power draw

    The one thing that never seems to get mentioned (on the draw shot) is the amount of tip movement from intended contact point.. It is fairly well known that with BHE side to side movement.....the longer the bridge length the more tip movement you get with smaller amounts of Back hand...

    Anyone wear wrist straps?

    So...where is the line drawn...I know of a past top flight player that won a pro event that played with a piece of chalk held a certain way in his grip hand...I know of others that wear watches on the grip wrist (for the weight factor)....what about rings?....what about the Micheal Jackson...

    Playing today in Phoenix Area. Anyone interested?

    Assuming you have already been to Barefoot Bob's.... Proximity wise.........Bullshooters and/or nearby Metro will be your first stops........Bullshooters pit tables are usually good for some kind of action......Another 45 min to hour and you can be to Main Street or even all the way out to...

    Fast Improvement Training Method for Shot Making

    Well...you are sure welcome to report my post...but you may want to re-read it first after pulling your head out your arse... I don't know of any sneaky YouTube link I posted ....Other than an OBVIOUS joke in my signature which is not "marketing" and is in every post I make since it is a...

    Auto Grip Experiment

    This is very much a device for someone that holds the cue in the middle two fingers and uses the middle two fingers pretty much as the fulcrum.... For me....The first finger and thumb are just along for the ride...pointing down......(very much like a Golf grip) The pinky is not the fulcrum for...

    Auto Grip Experiment

    I don't necessarily disagree...but if no rule is in place against it????? ....The initial intent was a grip/stroke training aid....I am messing around with putting it on and taking it off....seems like I play better with it on....but I do notice that my grip without it has also improved from the...

    Auto Grip Experiment

    Playing around with and Auto Grip Experiment....I am quite sure some of you jokers will say this is the dumbest thing since....well....ever....and it may not even work for some that grip with the first finger and thumb.....so you can ignore I guess...🙃 If you grip like I do...with the middle...

    IS IT BAD/WRONG TO SLIDE YOUR BRIDGE HAND???

    I was not referencing long or short slide.....I was referencing a yes or no questioned option...... Depth perception plays a role in this as well....Since you can hardly ever get your eyes directly over the CB when placing the tip.....It is much more precise to slide up rather than plolp down...

    IS IT BAD/WRONG TO SLIDE YOUR BRIDGE HAND???

    So other than disturbing the cloth and perhaps moving the CB what is the difference of sliding slightly on the cloth vs in the air.? To me it looks akin to a plane coming in for a landing......When the bridge is on the rail it is like a plane landing on an air craft carrier....hits and...

    Rear Foot Angle-Snooker Pro vs 9' Pro

    For me pivoting just my foot does nothing but add a little tension to the knee...........now if I let my hips move slightly with the foot movement...I don't get that knee tension.....but other than that does nothing but want to change the direction my cue points. Starting position of the feet...

    Rear Foot Angle-Snooker Pro vs 9' Pro

    If I stand in the middle of the table...parallel to the end rail...feet pointing straight to the opposite end rail and let the cue hang balanced in a relaxed grip hand/arm.....the cue does not point straight to the opposite end rail unless I force hold it that way........relaxed and natural the...

    Your 1st Cue, 30 Years Later

    The first cue I bought was an off the wall Adams and one of those red single cue cases from a Pool Supply place.....The place sold Chlorine, pool pumps, equipment supplies etc.....but also sold Pool tables, Pool Cues and accessories.........All purpose pool supply place. I kept it behind the...

    Rear Foot Angle-Snooker Pro vs 9' Pro

    Most likely the parallel back foot is due to the more open stance of snooker players....The kicked outward foot promotes a more closed stance. What I have found from standing relaxed upright normally and letting my grip hand/arm hang relaxed naturally by my side and then bringing the grip end...

    Fractional aiming and required accuracy

    Wow.........With all due respect and this is just one guys worthless opinion.......That it not a good look for you..........Hack instructors yes.....but.....I can't think of any top professional instructors that would make such a comment about methods that don't fit their personal methods.

    Using More Centerball

    Staying on vertical axis is akin to playing by shooting only to the corner pockets and never the sides........If you only shoot to only the corners you are limiting your potential..........You can "plan" and play to the corner pockets...but if necessary.....you must be able to shoot them in the...

    Using More Centerball

    What exactly is the definition of center vertical axis and how wide is it???? I would venture a guess that 80+% of us can't hit exactly what center axis is.....or at least not nearly as often as we think we do.....

    Bridge Hand Aiming

    Not sure what you are getting at with non-dominant hand......(bridge hand???).......So for me my dominant hand is more my right hand...the one I throw a ball with......my left hand though is my grip hand since I shoot pool left handed and am left eye dominant......but I play Golf right...
