    SVB runs a 305 in straight pool

    Yes, John did complain about the cloth, but also mentioned the tight pockets. And yes, 95 percent of the shots are short, most into the two corner pockets. What I believe, and what some might not, is that given the knowledge to play the game the way John or Mike can, shot selection, patterns...

    How do we create consistency in our pool game?

    This is the first time I've heard you talk of TOO. touch of outside, which is the way I like to hit it. Mike Sigel, winner of over a hundred tournys, said in one of his 1980's videos. "half a tip outside spin" So, What's the difference?? I prefer the little outside, you the inside. you are a...

    New Custom Back Brace

    "They wanted me to pay to have it delivered and set-up." best off trashing it if the above is the case. sounds like they don't really want a table. However, sounds like you are back. no pun intended best of luck with the back brace, pain sucks.

    amazing player, cue power, everything. thx for the show. Why do snooker players talk so much about centerball? I say bs to that. I don't see it. I think it needs to be hit every bit the same as on a pool table. the balls are round and the pocket deep. both game the same, snooker less forgiving...

    He shoots with a curved cueThats what she said

    chalk up another for curve down. My cheapo breakstick is bent. I drew a line on the ferrule. I keep the line on top, and the cue is curved down.. as long as it looks straight I can still hit with it. up to a point, anyway.

    Is a stroke that important?

    Is a stroke that important? You ask. Not really, I would say if all you gotta make is pancakes. If you gotta make some pool shots, you are going to need a stroke. The kid strokes it just about as good as I have seen, He has a little bit of an extended follow through, or maybe you could call it...

    Mike Sigel 150 & Out vs Jim Rempe

    Nice find. Cruel game this straight pool. Rempe didn't deserve that. I guess I happens to us all. Now I gotta watch Mike run out.

    Quck Poll ... what do you look at last CB or OB

    Ok, I read post 21. good thread as well No doubt it works for him, no disrespect to DrC results are all that matters. A person should not need to look at cue ball to get desired hit. get a repeatable stroke and forget about it. you gotta know where you are going to strike it, and if you don't...

    Quck Poll ... what do you look at last CB or OB

    If I am hitting it good, I can't tell ya, wish I could. After I aim, The stroke makes the shot. I guess you could call it: The Way of the Stroke. I could be looking at my foot, doesn't matter. If I am not hitting it good, it really doesn't matter, I am missing the shot anyway, and you wouldn't...

    I need to say to anyone thinking about adopting any of my methods.. re read post number 3. any number of things could go wrong at any given moment. and don't wear loose clothing, my shirt sleeve could have got spun around there. anyway, I have been sanding on the ferrule and shaft since day...
