If you asked what I used.... I would say... But I say reverse.. instead of back spin .

In established pool terms it means english ... not English .

Thanks for your clarification. When I want the ball to back up, I'll use reverse spin. When I want the CB to come off the rail other than a natural angle, I use side spin. The side spin I use could be called running spin, or it could be called hold up spin, depending on the shot. I feel like...

Use a numbered ball for the CB... let's say the 2 ball. Put the number 2 on top. The 2 on the bottom is on the table. Hit the 2 ball with maximum sidespin... no top or reverse spin. The 2 on the top.. stays on top. The ball goes forward by sliding on the bottom number 2. It wiil stay on the OB...

DrCue... I tried that shot 20 times from the measle ball position in your image.. 10 rolling and 10 with maximum inside spin. The rolling CB does require a touch of right spin to get to center table. With maximum inside the CB comes back straighter. With inside spin speed control becomes an...

I think you'd better look at that image again. The measles ball is the CB. The white ball is where the CB ended up after rebounding off the rail. The measles ball can't follow the tangent line unless sliding upon contact with the 5. The natural rolling CB should rebound straight off the rail. A...

. The image from the original post.... https://pad-v1.chalkysticks.com/851fa.png Fran... Looking at the image above.. from the original post.. My reply wasn't wacky. The CB in this case would have natural roll, not forward spin. Why would it come off the rail with a lot of reverse spin? The...

Fran... Hope that wasn't me. .

Grandfather Act... I would check into that possibility. Maybe a letter of intent to local Code Inforcement. .

. I think you'll find your answer on #9 here..... http://wpapool.com/equipment-specifications/ Down angles 12 degrees minimum.. 15 degrees maximum.. My down angles are 13 degrees. .

Rent a Cadillac for a day when you're gonna' play him. Tell him you're thinking about buying it for cash, but it doesn't have all the options you want. He may ask for a spot. :grin: .

Think of 2 tables end to end... the table you're playing and an imaginary table touching. Hit the CB at a speed to send it to your wanted shape on center of the imaginary table. The CB will hit your end rail and "should" rebound the right distance for shape on the 6. ___________________ Edit...

I agree with Bob totally. I played for years with a slight chicken wing stroke and a elbow drop. I was young and I played a lot at the YMCA. The table was high and my stroke was compromised when I had to stretch to hit the cue ball. As years passed my stroking became much smoother and...

Very good quality video... I also like your dominant eye explanation. The cue needs to be in line and must be pulled back along that line. .

:thumbup2: Maybe Mike keeps talking because he's asking himself for expert advice. :bow-down: :shocked: .

Talking to yourself is one thing... Answering yourself is another. .

CENTER CUE BALL AIM POINTS FOR OBJECT BALL OVERLAPS..... On bottom right in my drawing.. POST #1.. there's a ruler with .281 marks for aim points. Those aim points may be hard for some folks to visualize. My drawing above shows the same CCB points, but it uses the width of a golf scoring...

Depends on how they're set up... Pocket angles, pocket facings, shelf depth, ect. .
