    Bridge Hand Aiming

    I probably would not have replied.......but So my original response in this thread was to the OP's post.....In one of my later responses I did make a comment in reference to post #5 that suggests the V formed is a handy aiming device.......The OP Title and original post made no mention of using...

    In bar table eight ball, do you deliberately miss shots?

    Semantics....but Yes it is..... There is intent and also perceived intent......It is that perceived intent that is important in some bars. The wording can be spin doctored any which way you want.......but my "perception" is you get the jist of it...;)

    In bar table eight ball, do you deliberately miss shots?

    Depends on the bar/rules you are playing by....In some bars they don't like it when you play safe and very much discourage anyone who does........In that case missing on purpose IS a strategy....The key however is to be able to miss on purpose without it looking like you missed on purpose. Any...

    Bridge Hand Aiming

    Kind of my point though........One would assume then after bridge hand placement......one then needs to then use the inch of shaft to "verify" the cue is straight on the shot line.... It is widely regarded in shooting that a longer barrel is much more accurate and easy to aim than a shorter...

    Bridge Hand Aiming

    Another problem with bridge hand aiming is even if you are diligent at getting the bridge hand (including reference to any specific part or formation therof)....that does not guarantee the grip hand or cue is straight on the shot line.... A PSR that drops a straight cue on a straight shot line...

    Alignment or aim?

    If your aim is off....so is your alignment.....If you alignment is off.....so is your aim.

    WWYD 9 Ball Mar 31

    The "key" to this rack is position from the second stun/draw off the 1 (after making the 2 and leaving the 1 in the jaws).....You can't be stuck to the rail...otherwise the scratch in the corner comes into play if you happen to fall short and are around the side pocket

    When pro's use their cue to measure or sight whatever, why do they....

    Well......I guess the first question is.......Where is the Side, Front and Middle???

    Items taken to the pool hall getting weird.

    I don't like bringing much in a pool room....more watch and/or forget......especially a cramped up bar room weekly tournament....for those...a cue (no case) in two pieces under my arm and a piece of chalk in my pocket.

    Dominant Eye before any aiming system

    That is a great question actually. Growing up my Dad was an Optician...so I had access to Optometrists, Ophthalmologists, and specialists..... I got glasses and contacts when I was younger...It was only a temporary fix....the lenses in my eyes would move and I would end up with mass headaches...

    Dominant Eye before any aiming system

    Funny thing is.....vison center is the easy part...(at least for me).........The hard part is blurred, doubled and/or distorted edges. Docs say my corneas are at least 20/20......my problem is the vertical astigmatism in one "lens" and the diagonal astigmatism in the other......So in other...

    Dominant Eye before any aiming system

    I suspect that for people that are closer to the nose/chin for vision center will have a easier time of switching eye dominance. I am so far left eye dominant there is no way I am able to force my right eye to be the dominant eye......I can even close my left eye make a circle around the target...

    Cue Tip Size And Shape Effects

    I call them sausage fingers.... I have square hand sausage fingers.........The only closed loop bridge I can make (especially anymore) is the OK bridge with the tip of my finger touching the tip of my thumb....I much prefer an open bridge whenever I can.......but use whatever the shot calls...
