    Wrist, yea, but what about the hand?

    Colin: I've seen that same arm-wrist-hand motion in videos of other kids. I think it helps that they are so short. As a "mature adult" with an old time high stance, I can't throw the arm like that and keep the cue parallel to the table. This is about the best I can do:

    Draw shot on ball frozen to rail: Why does it pull away from rail?

    Also, the side pockets are a little bigger than they look because the equator of the object ball can go under the point. Very cool.

    Do You Focus more on the Shot or the Stroke

    The next time you are playing someone, stop in the middle of your pre-shot routine and look at your opponent and ask him "When you are down on the shot, do you breath in or out before pulling the trigger?". :)

    MoneyMatch TV *HUGE POT* (Live)

    I tuned in when they were on break, tied at 10-10. I watched for a bit when they came back, just two games I think. They were good shot makers but played bad patterns.

    The Greatest Myth in Billiards' History - The Bad Stroke!

    Colin: It's very scary now using a short bridge off the rail, especially trying to spin the ball. Swerve often exceeds deflection. And no pivot point for a road map.

    The Greatest Myth in Billiards' History - The Bad Stroke!

    Colin: It's amazing how much better I shoot once my eyes are in the correct position. I think that's what "getting in stroke" is all about. I started hearing about the pivot point a few years ago, and thought "what a band aid, real players do it by feel". One day I decided to check it out...

    The slip stroke; not its definition, but its purpose

    If the grip is perpendicular when addressing the cue ball, the cue will be at maximum speed at impact. Most old straight poolers had a forward grip, which means the cue has passed perpendicular and therefore is decelerating at impact. In an earlier thread on this subject I think I came up...
