Don’t mean to dawg ya Rocket. You seem like a good dude. I’ve just seen this up in the first page for several days now and figured I’d weigh in. You brought up golf. I don’t play anymore, but remember some of my struggles. Maybe this is relatable: A righty player has a slice, but swears they...

Waste chalk, yes, that’s what you should do: Use a stripe for your cue ball. Put the number staring you right in the face and orient it the same way for every shot. Use a stripe vertically aligned for object ball. Sticker up a straight in like you would for the Mighty X, (long rail, short...

The last rack… needed 15, so just a shot on the break ball, no worries bout the stack. Accidentally made a cluster on the long rail; self-imposed mistake : 3 balls cock-blocking each other. Beauty of a shot to get on the 8 below the rack. Tangent plus a little draw takes out the middle ball in...

That safety exchange at 55-55 was a thing of beauty. Filler might be the straightest shooter who ever lived, but in a game where you can shoot any ball and it’s impossible to play safeties… Niels played the best safeties. Back cut bank on the 4 ball moving cue ball to the opposite string...

Interesting safety exchange at 58-48 He.: He nuzzled up to a cluster. Niels comes off two rails leaving everything in a line except a partial look at a cross side bank. He makes the bank, but angle forces him up table and he’s dang near welded to the rail. He makes long shot, but has to...

He vs Feijen on now.

@Oikawa @MmmSharp How do you guys assess what you need to change when you miss? If I’m reading correct, you use your knowledge of what you observe standing to dictate the real time shot picture when you are down on the shot. The way you slot your cue gives you feedback that lets you know...

This is totally interesting to me. I think it is human nature to assume that everyone else experiences things like you do… BUT… this is something that is completely unrelatable. I don’t even know how to describe a scenario…. If you make a shot, how do you remember how to hit it the next time it...

Dude everyone know it’s turtles all the way down.

Ya gotta be you. Never sell out.

Glad you had the sense to step away from that noise; hit the rock don’t smoke it. Righteous tune. That background music reminded me of “One Piece at a Time,” but wondering what would have happened if that angry mob caught him made me think of this:

So disappointed in you. You’da been a lot cooler if you ate the bacon on the burger and then ate more bacon later for you snack. Follow me for more advice. I know it all:

Two songs free, but a rock blocks three. Give ya one ya might not be familiar with. Here’s a song about a family reunion in Oklahoma at an Uncle’s house who, “cooks that crystal meth ‘cuz that shine don’t sell.”

Was gonna say sumthing aboot John Fogerty’s brother putting nails through the speaker cone of his amp to get a distorted sound, but he did it about a decade and a half too late. Willie Kizart is credited as the guitarist who pioneered the sound in 1951:

The dance… Love how it is referred to that way. Gotta have your tunes for that morning jam session. Said you was a driver, so down the road you go:

Is it: “Have trouble hitting the spot on the object ball they want to.” Or “Have trouble hitting the spot on the cue ball they want to.” ? I know some people like to knock fundamentals. To me, solid fundamentals means hitting the cue ball where you want consistently.

That is cool as hell! I would love to hear some stories about that. Were the widow maker curs awesome? How did they compare to other cues of the day, I guess namely Meucci would have been the top name right?

The Neils Feijen thing is really cool too. There’s a vid of him trying to shoot out of a box that’s totally cool. If you watch Neils vids they ooze Bert’s influence. In the last year he made a little three ball vid, which was Bert’s- Building the 6 Pointed Star. I do believe he also recently...

I’m still just a hack, but after doing that 60 minute workout I did get a ball better. I still use it as a basis for my practice on many days even if the shots aren’t the same… … one thing beat into my brain was -playing to or through the center of the table. I can hear him saying, “It’s a no...

I want to try a digital cue blue, but man, to be honest, I’m scared I’ll find out sumthin’ bout myself I’m not proud of. I mean when I see a mutha funka that thinks he shoots straight, I can puff up my chest and expose him, while asserting that I am all that is man. Now if we are being...
