    JS Pro Golfer?

    A lot of it has to do with what course they are playing on and what tees they are shooting from. If its a long course and they are shooting from the blacks John wouldn't stand a chance in hell.

    Looking for insight on stance, 6 foot 8 pool player

    I'm 5'8 so I don't understand these problems. I do know however that you definitely don't want to lock your back leg. At your height that is asking for serious back problems. You might want to try squaring your stance up some by moving the front leg back so its more square with your left leg...

    JS Pro Golfer?

    I know a pool player from a hall around here who played golf in college for 4 years. He said a few people just have it and most people dont. He said his short game was really good but these other guys had the whole package. Meaning they could drive the ball a mile. This was back in the 80s...

    Emily Frazer/ 9 ball Fix

    This is a good idea they should modify the lights so there is a humdifier constantly going overhead. This should make the cloth player tougher I think.

    Getting the cue on the line of aim

    Well, the reason I put it there was I read on alt.sport.pool like over 20 years ago to put it under my dominant eye and picked a spot there that felt good and never thought twice about it. I think it was a terrible spot. Basically the cue looked diagonal going towards my nose. I now...

    Getting the cue on the line of aim

    There was pretty much no issue. The main transisition is I just make the longer ones more consistently than before. Its probably also worth noting that I am using BHE+FHE combination, not FHE or BHE as FHE/BHE might imply.

    Getting the cue on the line of aim

    Yes. For a few reasons. I have a very dominant left eye. Its so dominant that I basically see diagonal out of it. There are a whole range of shots (mainly to the left) that I shoot directly into the rail when using my dominant eye. With genos methods I would shoot to the right with my left...

    Getting the cue on the line of aim

    It worked for me and I spent so long missing the same shots the same exact way lining up under my dominant eye. I went to Geno and using his methods I saw improvement but it never had the aiming consistency over a wide range of shots I wanted. Now aiming isnt an issue using the vision center...

    Article says : "Hitting a Baseball is the Hardest Skill to Pull Off in Sports." -- Not IMO

    I dont even think you need a sensor in the cue ball you just need high speed camera, measle ball with different color/shape dots, and the right software.

    I don't think new cloth is necessarily good for pro tournaments.

    Of course a top pro is still going to destroy everyone. The better player will still win but they will rattle more balls with worn cloth than with brand new cloth. Its basically a fact.

    I don't think new cloth is necessarily good for pro tournaments.

    I've played a lot on a worn out 4 1/8" Diamond and I know what I'm talking about. 4" is that table but only worse.

    I don't think new cloth is necessarily good for pro tournaments.

    It will slow them down significantly. Just go to any weekly amateur tournament the week before the cloth is changed then go back a week later when there is new cloth. The ability to runout is increased significantly for the players that know how to play on new cloth. He isnt talking about...

    Will 4 inches pockets be the future of US pool, bar box and big table?

    If you don't get a good angle you must hit them harder because you cant cheat the pocket to create angle you have to use speed since the table is slow as all hell. Unless you are super good at compensating for CIT hitting them harder seems to help bring it down to a managable level as well. All...

    Will 4 inches pockets be the future of US pool, bar box and big table?

    At a local pool hall there is a Diamond with 4 1/8th corners, old worn out rubber, and cloth over 5 years old and its absolutely brutal. I estimate the angles at about 137^. My friend who likes to hammer all his shots and play mainly center ball loves it. Personally I wont play on it because...

    Will 4 inches pockets be the future of US pool, bar box and big table?

    They also are playing on brand new cloth under tv lights.

    Table Difficulty Factor (TDF) for measuring table "toughness"

    There is a room around here that overbuffs the balls and I have the same problem. I was complaining about it to the counter guy and he didn't believe me when I said they play fine out of the cleaner but 45 minutes later they are unplayable and everything dramatically undercuts. I always bring...

    Table Difficulty Factor (TDF) for measuring table "toughness"

    I had a Gandy Oversized 8 with 4.25" corner pockets, 0.75" shelf and .5" mouth-throat difference which I believe was 0.99 TDF. I also have a new custom made oversized 8 foot with 4.25" corner, 1.0" shelf and 0.75" mouth-throat difference which is 1.04 TDF. The new table plays significantly...
