Sorry to hear this about Rich! I spoke with him about 6 months ago, we spoke about His illness! And the cue & case I sold Him about a year ago. R.I.P. Rich.

Larry, just as in 3C, when an OB is close to the cushion trying to pick up that '3rd rail. The CB can contact that cushion in several points within 1", same here to try and 'Land on the OB'! The 'Spin' on the CB will help 'Nuzzle' up to the OB softly.

Eric, 'Bugs' was the Only player I've ever seen that could grab Any cue, (even a 'House cue' off the rack) and play lights out!

In the mid 60''s - 80 the Top 1 Hole player in the Midwest beat All 'Road Players' that came thru. He Never used more than 1/4 Tip of Any English, Follow, Draw or R & L.

Just from looking at the 'Tile size on the floor' these tables look to be, 4'x8' or 4'.5x9 'Carom' tables. Not 'Match (5'x10') 3C tables.

Arts, do you think he'd play anyone 'Without a Tip'? No tip on the end of the shaft!

Read post #41. A simple explanation.

Arts this is where the 'Pause/Hesitation' occurs, "Then the shooter regrips the cue at this further back location."

IMPO, a 'Slip Stroke' is a form of a 'Hesitation Pendulum' stroke.

Arts, 'Carom' balls were made from Ivory for over 100 years. From the 'Purest' which is called 'Clear Zanzibar ivory' tightest grain, hardly visible, you can get 3-4 'Carom' size balls! Then some balls are made from 'Further up the tusk' which are called 'Barkies' heavier grained. In 1963 at...

It looks like this R.I.P. Archie thread has taken a 'Turn'. I'll relate a story from of friend of mine and Archie. My friend lived in Vegas and was around/friends with Archie before, during and after He went broke. During Archie's 'Big Run' my friend wasn't doing well and asked AK for a...

If they ever have a 'Bar Table' category for HOF, Dave's a Shoe in!

Next time you know you're going to match up with this Pro player. Bring a 'Roll of Painters tape' to the PR. Right before you play, go around and put the tape all around the diamonds on the table! I'm a 3C player, I don't need the diamonds!

We'll have to 'Agree to Disagree' on 'Timing & Acceleration'!

Respectfully, Dave. 3C Artistic players us 'Different Deflecting/Tapers/weights'/ shaft weights/length/tip size to avoid such mishaps! Plus, the Art of delivering the cue at the proper, 'speed/timing/tempo an acceleration is paramount!

I think 3C players from '3C Artistic' events have figured out 'exactly' what 'Appropriate Stroke' to apply without causing a 'Foul'!

When the CB & OB are within 1/8"-1/4" apart, if the CB 'Hesitates' before it travels 'Foward or Backward' It's Not a Foul! 2nd video. See at 1:17 and the last shot.

I think that would be a tough road for the 'Miz' with that game!

An 'Unknown' Smoothest/easiest/pure stroke Pool player I've seen was 'Johnny Canelo'!

In Cocoa Beach. I give em. Pool & 3 Cushion Billiards.
