    My 9 ball run

    Not only a great shot but how about the shape on the 7 ball! Good shooting Madfox. I am also interested in your glasses. Also, what type of tip and hardness do you use. I am planning on changing my tip and would like to find out more about what the pros are using.

    My apologies if these have been mentioned. "Banks are open or closed" (My personal favorite) "Sandbagger"

    Sealed In By Snow - Stop The Insanity - eriously!

    Hard to say how much we got here because of the drifting. Just west of here in Gorham, Maine they recorded 35" and in Portland 32". Finally got all cleaned up. The worst part of the storm was not being able to get onto AZB due to the cable and internet being out. What a bummer.

    Sad day today

    Even though I have a table and the guy I play with has one, we still like going to the local pool room. It's the atmosphere. Unfortunately, pool rooms are not all that busy nowadays. Really sad. We have no problem paying for our time and drinks and understand that the owner has a business...

    TAR 31: Shane Van Boening vs Mike Dechaine Feb. 15-17,2013

    Just curious about the racking situation. Seems to always be a problem. 1. Independent racker and they have to accept as is. 2. Rack your own. 3. Opponent racks. 4. Rack your own with a 10-15 sec. rack clock. I wish someone would figure out what to do when we have contestants that...

    Layered Tips Review (Results)

    I have used Moori tips and have been completely satisfied. I have read numerous times that the quality is not what it use to be. In your poll you said the "Old Batch" was the best. My question is, how do the Moori tips that one would buy today compare? Does anyone have any info on whether...

    Max Eberle!

    High run of 117. Just goes to show you how brutal a 10' Diamond can be. I would run out of breath just walking around it.

    C J Wylie controversy and TOI

    Jack, CJ isn't advocating the CTE system. That is an entirely different system from what he is teaching. His first video, Ultimate Pool Secrets, has a section that explains his system. I highly recommend that you get a copy of it. Your game will jump by leaps and bounds from all that he is...

    newbie

    Welcome! This is a great site and packed with all kinds of info. People are more than willing to help, just ask questions. I can relate to the freezing. When I'm down on the 9 ball, I've found that knocking the icicles off from my cue stick will help, but not always. Enjoy the site!

    How much did you miss, AZB while the site was down?

    I was so depressed, that if it wasn't for my wife, I might not be here right now. She stopped me just before I tried jumping out the cellar window.

    I want to make sure I understand cte so that I make an accurate opinion

    Hi John, FYI, I was really frustrated in trying to learn this system. I fellow AZB member PMed with some info to try and get me pointed in the right direction. I have been working on it and I am starting to see some results. I remember Stan saying you have to have a straight stroke for this...

    What center cueball has done for "The Blade"Stevie Moore

    Stan, I really appreciate you taking the time to try and help me on this. It will be a couple of days until I can get to a table to try this out. I view these forums as people wanting to learn from others that have experience. One asks a question and acts on what they receive for an...

    John Schmidt's and Corey Deuel's comments on aiming systems

    CJ, I have a question on your Pre Shot Routine and what you are doing. I know you say you do your aiming in the standing position. I also know that you are using either the edge or center when aiming a portion of your cue ball. You also say you are using a portion of the cue ball to create...

    What center cueball has done for "The Blade"Stevie Moore

    I am one of those that bought Stan's DVD and am having trouble trying to figure out how to connect with the CTE method. I've set up the shots diagrammed and am still spinning my wheels. There are times when I must be hitting on it because some of the shots go in. However, I feel like I am...

    CJ Wiley's Free Introduction to the Touch OF Inside Technique

    I don't use the "backhand English" method on anything but banks, and that's a completely different subject. ;) CJ, Any chance you will put out any info, in the form of a video, on banking? I've learned so much from your DVD's and posts. You have a great style of conveying instructions...

    CJ, Thanks for the quick response. I'll give this a try as soon as I can get to a table. Won't be today, it's snowing again, will be shoveling instead of stroking.

    TOI in ACTION Earl Stickland vs CJ Wiley

    CJ, I want to thank you for all of the information you are sharing with us. I have both of your DVD's and look forward to your up and coming one on TOI. In post #122 the poster high lighted in blue what he didn't understand about your aiming system. Basically, once you have aligned the...

    I want to make sure I understand cte so that I make an accurate opinion

    I have a table at my son in law's house. I try and get up there at least once a week. I play in a league on Monday night and usually with a friend on another day. I only worked on the CTE when I was by myself at my son in law's house. I had the DVD playing. I printed out the shots that Stan...

    I want to make sure I understand cte so that I make an accurate opinion

    I am not being negative, all I want is to offer my point of view. I bought Stan's DVD on CTE/PRO ONE. I worked with it and finally gave up because I just couldn't figure it out from the DVD. I've asked numerous questions and have received answers from people that said they didn't get it...
