    Undisturbed rack ( 14 balls ) safety play.

    In George Fels book "Mastering Pool" is a really good write on this topic- I recommend it still to everyone- even if we all nowadays playing on superfast cloth etc- but his book is still fantastic and gives you a great understanding of the game. have a smooth stroke.

    Your Spot Shot Record?

    Well, it s gettin interesting in the moment, where you would define if you really just count PERFECT stop shots. A stop is a stop :-) without any tolerance. And as soon as you just count such "stop shots" the numbers will be dramatically lower :grin:

    Field Goal Drill

    Very important point- you need to put the things together. Workin on drills can and will help for very sure. But you have to PLAY. Without practicing competition you will never really improve.

    Mezz Shaft wanted

    Every cuemaker can handle that easily- and change to the joint type you want. Some Joss have a 5/14-16 pin--- in that case a united shaft from Mezz "could" fit. Have smooth stroke :)

    Enough Is Enough!!

    "Back of ball" system is best described as Joe Tucker did it-- that s in my opinion exactly the same. A contact to contact. And Joe s "Aiming by numbers" showing it really "easy to understand"- and if you see how Joe s System works, the "Back of Ball" System (the name of it) makes finally sense :)

    Best way to roll forward just a bit on longer shots?

    Stun-Follow - or some call it stun follow through. A shot you should have in your arsenal- especially on very long shots a life-saver. also because there s then no need to be scary that the table rolls off. Slow rolling something that always is extremly dangerous.

    Any ideas for using a laser pointer for aiming practice?

    I had plans, to make some Tools with a laser- as Trainings aids. but wasn t able to find a single laser which wouldn t be dangerous for the eyes.

    rhythm of the stroke...your thoughts

    Have the greatest respect for many of your postings matey- but you ve shown up with something, which would give Food for a completley different *Topic*-- The "OK" which you described can be at the cueball itself (Point of no Return, Analogy of PSR taught by most of german Coaches), then it also...
