I've heard you many times about this but like I said, or tried to say, I thought the thumb also moved back over that finger. The thumb created my objection to that grip. Now I understand the thumb isn't involved. My question is why the middle finger when the index finger is the most...

Had a hard time with the title of this thread. Anyway, over the years I've heard about the middle finger as a key. Coming from very old school where it was taught that the index finger was under the thumb... I always thought that the teaching of the middle finger thing meant that the thumb...

Why not ask civil questions in an effort to better understand what he's trying to say, rather than immediately jump down his throat, which you love to do to anyone and everyone, about anything. Bill has problems explaining himself, but you know what? We all do when writing rather than having a...

You have no idea what you're talking about. You're clueless about Bill's knowledge. Totally clueless!! You don't know what he's talking about cause you don't listen and question. You already know everything there is to know about everything.

Bill says the OB is frozen and 2 diamonds from the corner. CB is in the center of the table. I'm very interested in this stuff. I'm old but have started training and discovering things I never paid attention to.

I looked at my clock and its upside down.

My 3C mentor would make this shot without draw. He was a big man with a powerful stroke. When the shot came up I'd stand behind him to see what was going on. He hit it with 9 o'clock. He was a US Champion with better aim than me. I can get the angle sometimes but not the power...

Did you really mean 9 o'clock rather than 3 o'clock?

I quit doing this job myself, I hire a professional, but I'm still interested in learning the process. My question is about your gauge for marking the stretch. Since the cloth is completely relaxed when you're drawing the stretch lines, it seems to me, if I used that tool the cloth would end...

I miss Hollywood Fats He had some interesting thoughts.

Don't want to say it's a beating a dead horse issue, but close. I think you're talking about creating more advanced and Pro Players? Keep in mind the value of the Dollar since 1970. Politics has ruined the dollar. $40 in 1970 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $325.37 today. Do...

If you're into spinning the CB and pay attention, the dots help you pick up added or subtracted English depending on inside or outside desired spin and which side of the OB you're hitting. Collision induced spin isn't only about the OB. Wanna perfect your shape? Pay attention to the CB spin...

Harold Worst vs anyone

I don't know much about your goal but I've bought 2 gun safe heaters and they both burned out in short order. The 10 or 12" 110V stick types. Thought the first one was maybe a fluke thing, then tried another of a different brand and even more $$. Won't buy a third of this type.

I think much initially is in the head but time will tell. I remember a cue I got to try for maybe 30 mins and loved it. So much that I commissioned a builder to make me one just like it. Of course he couldn't make it perfectly the same, but he got close. But just not the same. That cue gave...

Of course. But of course you didn't read what I said earlier.

I should really wait for Gar to explain all this but I want to make a comment prior to input. All the discussions about coring. Why do you guys add a core? Does a full splice = adding a core or not. Just asking. Respectively I expect a full splice cue has nothing to do with how the ball...

Pool resolutions have never worked for me. Too many things get in the way. I decided to practice more a few months ago. Hasn't worked out too well. Lately I've got family including a baby that loves to stand on my table and roll balls. Any time I go to practice, she wants to play. Then...

Never thought of it that way. Only One Piece cues can be "full splice" Maybe you're correct. Don't know for sure these things. Several years ago on Dieckman's "back porch" he talked about Coring, He said, the way I build my cues, I automatically have a cored cue, then showed me the very end...
