    AA vs B Players

    HI there, would usually also tend to ask what Fran already asked you-- what is AA or B :-) But beside better technical abilities the mental part makes a BIG difference, including the correct attitude.

    Ball overlaps with pictures

    Hi Ralph, i got you 100% :-) just wanted to say, that with seeing these numbers it s for many just an eye opener so they understand it better - as they *see it*. No need for the numbers of course- but for some it s just another way to transfer what you ve shown up - and also another way how...

    Ball overlaps with pictures

    You can also just use back of the ball system - or the aiming by numbers method from Joe Tucker to maybe understand more easily and "see" it what Ralph has shown up and tried to explain.

    long cues

    62 to 64 inches is pretty nice if it s well balanced. "Much tool long" cues which are not well balanced are (in my opinion) tough to play with. Especially on shots, where you really need a high acceleration with your stick. I m using 62 inches and as soon as i play with a usual size as 58...

    can someone explain why you would get more spin with a low deflection shaft??

    english Don t want to sound glibberish, but it s really a misinformation. It s just about your stroke, and angle, speed and the amount of spin. lettin the material of the tip aside- let s imagine you use the same tip here with the same shape etc. you will also find some ppl who would tell...

    Game improving clubs

    If we let *the feel and hit* aside, which are anyway subjective-- One thing is for sure: once you decided to play successful and with consistency, you should stay with your material. The low deflection shafts have an advantage for sure- especially at the very beginning. Because as long as...

    Is it possible to train your mind and body to hit

    I am not sure- but your response sounds a bit like an attack/offense towards me. Don t know why- but ok. I usually try to hold myself out of the ring, if the naysayers are playing their online wars :-) but just for the info: it may really has been a lack of understanding (vocabulary wise)...

    Playing "Without" the CueBall?

    Of course Eric :-) And without starting a discussion in any direction *of which" aiming-method, system or whatever-- pool is a visual game-- and a repeatable approach is needed.... (one, you have to find out for yourself through knowledge and a great amount of overlearning) .... to get the...

    Playing "Without" the CueBall?

    Let the eyes lead- and the body will follow. In 1986 these words my old mentor, well respected friend, and multiple european and worldchampion S. Spielmann Sen. told me. And he was so damn right :-) Your Aiming begins already standing tall behind the shot before you get down.... best from...

    Stan's New Video Part Deux

    I stand 100% behind the words i wrote- I personally take different point of views as positive- always. This forces me to think why other humans think different and could also open my horizon of knowledge and understanding. What I wrote is nothing but about the zero respect some are showing up...

    Stan's New Video Part Deux

    Well, As Gerry (Mohrt) stated-- on both "sides" some are a "bit stubborn"- this section really has become nothin but "who has the longest"-- not one percent respect for another opinion. Even after years here are 2 hands full of humans, who are not able to but flame- not able to even think...

    Ask the instructor lock??

    Hi, i think that i can assure you, that i NEVEREVER used this sentence- in no situation. I really thought, that i have given a response with sense to the topic owner- or haven t I ? Maybe I totally misunderstood his question? his Intention? Not really sure, why your response came up in such...

    Ask the instructor lock??

    I am pretty sure, that many agree with you somehow- but it is in my opinion really hard to act here "fair". Of course you could show up with "this and that" in your signature about your "quality". Things like the "instructor organisation" you have been proofed by. Already here the problem...

    Is it possible to train your mind and body to hit

    Ok - hoping, that joey started this "thread" in a serious manner-even if some already start to troll around for sure soon. Contact to Contact is in my opinion a valuable *system*-- For your question: If you use for example back of the ball system, which is used by many pro players (snooker...

    What enhances your game?

    Enough sleep, time, and just the willing to play pool :-)

    Can you be too smart to play good pool?

    It really depends how the two human correspond with each other- the communications skills of the *person* who teaches/showin something is a big factor. In my opinion it has nothin to do with being dumb or silly or stupid. It s just about how you transfer knowledge and what s necessary at a...
