    Ron V aiming system video and diagrams

    It's pretty obvious that it did. It seems that it would be harder to do this with your palm flat on the table. That's why I asked about the open bridge. Just so I understand, is it correct that your bridge hand should not move at all, to the left or right, when pivoting to center?

    It looks like on your first back stroke, right after you pivot to center, your hand tilts over a little to the left. Are you supposed to do that to make this system work? If so, how far over are you supposed to move it.

    Your fingers, where they touch the table, aren't moving but it looks like the rest of your hand is. I want you to know that I am not knocking you. I have been following this thread and am trying to understand.

    It looks like you are moving your bridge hand to the left before you shoot. You are bridging with your palm up off the table. Is it still possible shoot this way with an open bridge and your palm flat on the table?

    Happy Birthday Smorgie

    I had feared the worst. I'm happy to find out you were frolicking on the beach with your boy-toy. :) I had feared the worst and thought you were despondent over Wheatcues banning and were helping him out. Counting points, measuring shafts, making beer runs, etc. I hope you feel better. Oh...

    Guinness 9 ball on sopcast NOW!

    It wasn't there for me either, when I first opened Sopcast. After a while it refreshed itself and more channels popped up, including 6029.

    Shut up or put up -- 90 degree "impossible" cut-shot

    OK, I want the truth! Did someone peel up that spot and move it closer to the end rail? :p Nice shot Bob, I didn't know that was possible. I can't wait to frustrate myself trying it.

    Billiard School

    Here is a guy that gives lessons in Troutdale. Click on the "lessons" tab for info. http://www.billiardsandbarstoolsonline.com/ Also, Glenn Atwell is a very good local player that I "think" gives lessons out of Classic Billiards on S.E. 122nd. He might be busy at the "World 10-ball...

    AZ USER NAMES ... How did you get yours and does it have history for you or meaning??

    I used to play in a band 20 some odd years ago. One of my buddies used to poke fun at me and call me "Ruby" Ron. It was a reference to "Diamond" Dave (David Lee Roth). I don't know why I picked that screen name, nobody has called me that in years. :shocked:

    Forthcoming IPT Pro-Am Team Event - $50k

    Here's a link. Dang, that does seem like a great idea. The short race to three make it appealing to a lowly "B" player like myself. If there was a qualifier near me I would probably fork over the $75 for a chance to have a 50K air barrel shot at me. :eek: Plus, it just seems like it would be a...

    I don't like giving red rep but I think it is deserved here. I knocked him back 8 places. :(

    If KT shows up, will he be escorted off the premises? :p Seriously, with you at the helm, I predict this event will successful. I might have to travel down to spectate.

    Rule question -- freakiest scenario

    My copy of "Dive Bar Pool Rules" states: "In situations where the players are close to evenly matched, or are both just wusses, the call goes to the shooter who has consumed more alcoholic beverages. If neither has consumed any alcohol yet, the call goes to the shooter who can bench press the...

    Rule question -- freakiest scenario

    Well, I don't have my rule book handy but IIRC, I think it goes something like this: "If you are bigger than your opponent and/or he is a total wuss, the ball is placed back in the pocket. If he is mean looking, the ball stays down and your opponent gets ball in hand. Hope this helps. :)
