    When the cball is headin for a scratch......."let him in,he's a member". I heard someone telling their buddy about me after our match of bankpool. "He left me on the end rail so much,I'm pickin out splinters":D John B.

    Tip radius... bad idea

    Everybody would laugh at my tip if they saw it up close. It's lopsided from where I have my shaft marked on a certain side and I turn it to that side for every shot. I do not use an ld shaft however. John B. .

    Straight In Shots

    And some of the best players I have ever seen, had a crooked stroke. Thing is..they learned how to use it. Moral of this strory.....you do not have to have a perfect straight stroke to play championship caliber pool.Or to make long straight in shots either;) John B.

    Straight In Shots

    Yeah CJ and thank you,that does sound very similar. I do see where you are coming from by making that zone. You were doing something on me for 15hrs on my home court In Lexington. You were the only one to come in there and not lose:grin: John B.

    Tips from a pro....

    Well..there it is right there:eek::D. I have to wonder why more don't use this bridge? I guess it comes from them thinking it won't be stable enough. John B. PS: "Now unclear to me and use it frequently" I'm confused by this quote but It doesn't take much:p

    Straight In Shots

    It might not help,but...The hardest shot to play in golf,is a straight shot. In golf.. it is better and easier to play a cut or draw than it is to play a dead straight shot. Not many can hit a pure straight shot in pool or golf. You need to find the best way for YOU to hit the shot..not someone...

    Tips from a pro....

    No, I have not heard of him.He does sound like a great instructor tho. Thanks for mentioning what I described about the " Lou shot" That is a great bridge ( closed but palm up off of the cloth) but it might not be in any books.......Most top pros use this bridge alot. John B.

    What defines a "confident stroke"?

    Joey son,it's not going to be a fact,rather,it's just folks making an opinion on the subject that you brought up.Aint many facts involved with a pool shot. But since you asked...I'll give ya my thoughts....It's just the opp of a dog stroke:D John B.

    Another tip...

    My tips are only my opinion. IMO I don't think there are many facts to playing pool. I can handle the disagreements just fine ( I might learn something every now and then too,I try). After all it is just a game that we all like to play. I don't mean to step on any toes and I don't mean to offend...
