thanks I really appreciate the info. Apparently, mastery of the tangent line is essential to seriously mastering "shape."

deflection? The ad says nothing about deflection. The more I practice, the luckier I get & the better I perform with strange house cues. However, I still do better with my USS, which also improves with practice.

As always, AZers are generous with sage & explicit advice. These posts should keep me locked in the basement until the early morning hours. Now that I recently got my own table ($700 unfinished antique Brunswick Madison) my stroke has significantly improved, but I am frequently unable to predict...

racking secrets Racking Secrets alerts you if others are cheating & also lets you know if there are imperfections in the rack which you can use to your advantage.

I have no children, but many generations will be covering his deficit.

post dated check I would play 14:1 with George W. Bush for money, spot him 50 balls, lose, & write a 7 months post dated check on insufficient funds.

I need clarification. Many books I read emphasize that the cue be "level" which I interpret to mean parallel to the table. Conforming to this advice on most shots is helpful & appears feasible. However, this seems physically impossible if I am hitting the CB in the vicinity of the red line. I...

I salute your call for integrity & your contribution to our consumer education. We are fortunate to have such a standard bearer of morality on this forum. I am lucky to have your counterpart here in Kentucky, where I do business with the folks at Rack 66 in Louisville. The fact that they are...

Does the anatomy of the player enter into the equation eg. body weight, strength, ratio of slow/fast twitch musle fibers? Wouldn't a 21oz cue in the hands of Lou Ferrigno move as fast as a 17.5 oz cue in the hands of Woody Allen?

Global warming warped my shaft.
