    Allison fisher,have you seen her play lately?

    love the dutchess..she's half-retired so I'm not expecting her to replicate her previous results otherwise, she's still top 20 in the world, and if she caught a gear, she would be right there re: balukas, my *guess* is that a generation ago, only ally would regularly challenge her these days...

    about two shots

    nice. I only had time to try diagram 2 last night..didn't think to try rail-first with no english! tried it with a tip of running english each time, and ran smack into the 9, each time I actually had the most consistent success just clipping the 8 with inside english, no top if I hit it fat...

    about two shots

    thanks! I admit that the one rail kick in the diagram looks tastier than what I saw in the match..not sure why this said, I want to be able to hit the one ball using two rails, if that's what looks good at the time thanks again

    about two shots

    yea, kicking systems..I never really thought much about them because I could kick ok enough, but I def needed help on that one. I just couldn't quite see it the second shot was touchy..when you say inside, do you mean 3pm, or 2pm (with a bit of top)? I thinned it with 2pm, but I must've hit it...

    about two shots

    from my first toura in a long time yesterday..I will play these out myself, but curious if you all like a certain way to hit these especially the two-rail kick..I'm usually ok with these, but was unsure about making the hit here, and honestly missed it bad the eight ball I thinned, but it came...

    The Reyes Cup

    word a benefit of efren still being around is that he can be involved in the event, even beyond playing in it (tho that'd be cool) one thing that seems to be missing from the mosconi cup, is willie mosconi obv, but even legacy-wise I think matchroom could speak more about willie, and why their...

    What do you think the best shotmakers have in common?

    1-2%..gotta be mental. my guess, some melange of confidence/desire. a little bit at the top level must go a long way.

    What shots objectively benefit from a closed bridge?

    not an instructor *objectively*, I can't think of a reason why a closed bridge is better than an open bridge there are of course many cueists that have proven that using either/both bridges can work well personally, I like an open bridge for most shots- I like being able to see more of the...

    Improvement

    good advice, put me down for a copy :p (srsly) OP: we are not in the same boat skill-wise- but I know enough to know there's soo much to learn about pool, plenty room for growth so many say they want to improve, and perhaps they/we mean it, but who's putting in the work? be one of those that...
