The owner of this bar is a very good friend of mine and needs some help to pay the bills during the shut down. Bill Crowell, the owner is a well respected One Pocket player in the state of Missouri. I've known Bill for 25 years. He is a real nice guy and never asks for anything but when he does...

Hang in there PJ. John

Thanks Brian. Good to know. Have a good day and stay safe. :) John

Same here. I'm 6'-2" tall and have a wing span of 6'-2" which resulted in my having to hold the cue almost on the butt cap. What I did was remove the factory weight bolt and add my home made 7" extension that weighs 6.7 oz. The trick was to get the weight as far away from my grip hand as I...

Probably the best video on the planet to get you on the right track for kicking is Tor Lowry's video "Kicking and Banking" video. Then incorporate feel and stance. Nice post Jeff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Like Bill says here. It's a feel thing. The way I handle it mentally is, after getting down on the shot, I feel like I'm PUSHING the cue ball OFF of the OB. I feel this in my warm up strokes and my cue delivery. Just think " I want to push the cue ball off of the OB ball." You have to feel it...

I don't know how many here in the Aiming Forum read the Main Forum so I thought I would paste it here. Some really good instruction by Mark Wilson. Enjoy. :) https://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=507089 John :)

I can tell you what Mark Wilson teaches in his clinic. Goes like this, At the final pause at the cue ball as you bring the cue back say to yourself "ladies", as the cue stops on the back swing say to yourself "and", as the cue moves forward say to your self "Gentlemen" the tip strikes to cue...

Watched all three parts yesterday and all I can say is WOW! I have Marks book "Play Great Pool" number 1 of 1000 and enjoyed reading it. However I fall into the group of being a visual learner. These videos helped me to better understand Chapter 3. Thanks Mark and hope you continue to produce...

Hey Fran. He may be talking about the bodies center of gravity. https://sciencing.com/three-principles-gravity-affect-body-8452207.html John :)

Here ya go. Replaced my tube type lights with two of these. They are very bright. https://www.runnings.com/shop-light-led-4500-lumen-4ft-link-5583991.html?v=2019.09.03 John :)

Welcome back Imac007. Enjoy your posts. Years ago Earl Strickland began playing with an extension on the butt of his cue. Everyone just shook their heads at this idea. Fast forward to about 2017. SVB spent a couple of weeks with Earl in NYC while playing in a tourney. Shortly afterward SVB...

Jerry Terbrock Custom Cues - St. Louis, MO. Full Splice cues hit like a one piece cue. John :)

Good. The follow-thru of the cue thru the cue ball is not forced. What I mean by that is you do not physically try to push the cue to and thru the cue ball. It is the momentum of the cue weight being pulled forward that creates the follow thru. My advise to you is to seek out an instructor in...

Your stroke looks like your trying to PUSH the cue forward. This introduces unwanted tension in your grip and forearm. Learn to let the weight behind your grip hand do all the work. All you have to do is start the weight forward straight and it will stay straight unless of course you do...

A friend of mine asked this question today. I said "I have no idea, but I'll find out." So, is there drug testing of the players at the Mosconi Cup? Thanks John
