Mike, I was there. I didn't see that you were out of line and I told the guy so on his other thread. I wish I knew you were giving lessons, I would have gotten in line. It was great to see you. There are a lot of us that admire your skill on the table. Dougster

Cody took 2nd I don't know what match you were watching but Josh did not take 2nd in the State Tournament. Dave Hall beat Cody Francis winning the hot seat and putting Cody in the loser's bracket. I left before the final, but Cody came back and Eagle prevailed in the final. Samoth was 3rd...

Randy, I think what you are experiencing is the same that a lot of us are. I can get it to work with some of the angles, but not all, and also not consistently. What would really be helpful is: after your session with CJ, that is if you "get it", could you detail what you were doing prior to...

Great to see you Mike I know Mike and met him this weekend. He is always polite and cordial. I said hello and shook his hand. I don't like to bother people even though I wanted to ask him numerous questions about the game. He has answered questions that I ask before and I appreciated it. I...

CJ, When can we expect your DVD on banking to be ready? Unlike the naysayers on this thread, I find the information you put out to be extremely helpful to my game. I don't like reading through pages and pages of those trying to tear you down. I really don't understand what their problem...

Without a doubt #3 CJ, I'll take anything and everything you are willing to share with us. However, if I have to choose one, I would opt for what I would find most beneficial to improving upon one's game. Sign me up for #3. I want to know more about the grip, fingers, and wrist and how they...

I don't know what is up with UStream. I use to be able to go in on the site and type in what I was looking for and voila! I am registered, so I sign in now and I still get nothing. Also I tend to get a blank screen with sound when I do get something. I have given up on this site. If...

Add me to the list of being confused about which one of my eyes is dominant. I have done the numerous tests mentioned and it appears that my left eye is dominant and I am right handed. There is a test that shows that my right eye is dominant. I haven't seen this one yet, so I'm going to throw...

Geno, Your makeup is one that wants to help people out. Believe me, I know what that is like. I always look at a situation as, did they come to me or did I go to them. If they came to me, a red flag automatically goes up. I know that this might rule out some that really need help, but I...

I have been working on TOI and am having good results. I do find that I have to go over more than what is recommended. I am being very careful to parallel and not pivot. It's a work in progress. I don't know if this question has been asked: Should one use a regular shaft or can you get the...

Just to let you all know, I spent 7 hours on the table today and "I Got It". I sent CJ an email thanking him for all the help he has given me in seeing me through this. The TOI is the "nutz". We are really fortunate that we have someone like CJ who is sharing and helping us in this game...

Some of us don't have the technical expertise or want, to figure out how to take and post pictures here. If I knew how, maybe I would have a fancier Avatar. So, how does that mean I didn't make it?

CJ, I am really putting in some time on TOI trying to learn. I find some of the shots go in like magic. Some others I struggle with. Could be a stroke or a speed issue. My question is: When you are nearing the transition point, is this the furthest you have to go over on the CB? Would...

Totally agree with this. I made a light for my table using 4 4 foot florescent tubes. Box it in and paint the inside a bright white. Added egg crating and voila. No shadows on the edges of the table. Great light and didn't cost all that much. It was a couple of years ago, but I think it...

The rack seems to create so much controversy. They need to find a way to eliminate the rack mechanics, pattern racking, and make it fair. With this calibre of players, if you make a ball and get shape on the next one, you are almost automatically out. I almost always make the wing ball with...

CJ, I am particularly interested in your "lunging" comment. I continue to struggle with my stroke. Could you elaborate a little more on this? I have all 3 of your DVD's and I also attribute your instruction to massive improvements on my game, especially in pocketing balls. I understand what...

CJ Did you waive the rule of one foot on the floor for her? I would.

Welcome and thanks for your service sir! You'll love this site. There are a lot of great people on here that are more than willing to help you out. Just ask away. Did someone mention bacon?

I like watching Mike Sigel. Oh, and of course, listening to him. If Earl would drop his Bobby Fischer act, I would say he would be my all time favorite.
