    More Tip Position Discussion

    So I assume the point is that if it works would people be interested in buying it as an aid to improve. My opinion, in simple terms, is it probably won't do much to help the type of person who would buy it due to a lack of knowledge in other aspects of the game. The flip side is that the...

    What does pumping the cue over and over up in the air before their shot do for the pros?

    Ok, so you're back to not answering a direct question. Doubt that surprises anyone. Maybe your definition of recent and mine are a little different. Just guessing but I'd say it started about 20 years ago but it maybe started becoming more prevalent 10 years back. Of course now it's...

    What does pumping the cue over and over up in the air before their shot do for the pros?

    Perhaps I'm Once again, what does air stroking have to do with helping to align your head, body or anything else with whatever line you choose to talk about. Air stroking is a recent phenomenon that's popped up which some find cool and others find absurd. Whether it has any value in...

    What does pumping the cue over and over up in the air before their shot do for the pros?

    What, pray tell, does any of that have to do with air stroking helping the body be perpendicular to the shot line. Not to mention, why would anyone want their body 90 degrees to the shot line.

    2023 American 14.1 Championship

    The 14.1 starts the 23rd. I didn't know about the Bull tournament, that makes it even worse. Edit: Just saw it was changed to the 25th. Also changed from 6 days to 5 so he may be expecting less players.

    2023 American 14.1 Championship

    This happens to be my favorite tournament each year. With the recent announcement of the World 8ball in Austria it may have a big impact on field in the 14.1 tournament. I imagine with the huge (75k) money for 1st place possibly as many as 20 top players will bypass the straight pool and go...

    What does pumping the cue over and over up in the air before their shot do for the pros?

    Perhaps a video? You could do singing commentary as you demonstrate the proper technique. I'm particularly interested in #5. I wasn't aware that your body needed to be perpendicular to the shot line.

    Unsolvable 14.1 racks

    I think they're friends with Hairyman and Herman.

    bridge length/level cue/stroke

    Maybe I'll make a video about what you're describing. Right after you post the 10ball ghost video.

    bridge length/level cue/stroke

    He does have a small amount of entertainment value. He also seems immune to embarrassment.

    bridge length/level cue/stroke

    Don't have to discuss it as when I'm playing with pros I can see they don't do it. Wouldn't subject any students to your assertions. I want them to improve. If Dr Dave said it, it must be true. Is the 10ball vid coming soon?

    bridge length/level cue/stroke

    Your right, it is a horrible diagram. Reminds me of your 8 second video with the pen. Anyway, I did try it and it doesn't do what you describe. Unless (as PJ stated) there's an elbow drop or some bizarre cocking of the wrist in some way it doesn't level out, even somewhat. Furthermore, no one...

    finding the degree of your eye dominance

    IMO knowing to what degree your eye is dominant (if that's even possible and will be an estimation at best) will have little if any bearing on playing better pool. This is hardly my area of expertise but one thing I've noticed when people have these types of problems is that their tip is...

    Unsolvable 14.1 racks

    I used to cut you some slack because you are amusing at times but this one takes the cake. I don't wish to insult you but this post puts you right up there with double o as to who's the biggest flake on AZB. I really hate to admit it but I think you're winning.

    MatchRoom's response to the WPA player sanctions:

    Only if you include Marty Herman and Hairyman.

    Do you know anyone that has been banned from a pool room?

    Don't listen to BC. Marty is a great player and an even better person. Loved and admired by all. His (Hermans University) has trained many world class C players. He'd be the perfect guy for you to merge your Academy with and stand the billiards world on its head. Together you could take...
