99 Ball Run I just ran 99. I had no shots after a side pocket break except a cut shot into the side pocket with the object (one ball) about an inch away from the cue ball. I missed it big time. Did not wear my new glove. I can't get use to it. So going back to the old ways. No video.

Glove Danny, when I read your post on your great run & read that you were wearing a glove. That is when I decided to get one & give it a try. I do believe it is helping. Thanks for the comment. RobMan: happy to hear that you had that nice run of yours. Keep doing the right things and it will...

78...... I purchased a shooting glove today. I had a really good practice session tonight, even with my table playing slow lately. In a little over an hour. I ran a 62, 56 & a 78. Really happy about all of that. I have not played well in a while. It is nice to finally come out of a slump.

Thumbs Up Very good points. I totally agree. All those old time great players were straight pool players. Players like Lassiter who is said to be one of the best 9 ball players ever. You can go down a list of names.

I do remember reading a thread covering that subject some time back on the Main Forum.... When I see a guy like Duke, that is so consistent with 100's..... one has to wonder how it would be if they were right eye dominant instead of left.... LOL ....( the grass always seems greener on the other...

I understand about the pain. I too have those problems from an injury to my neck way back in my service days. Not fun....... Some times I wonder if I would play better if I were right eye dominant. I will never know. I have attempted to play with each eye over the cue. It has worked some what...

136.... Very, very nice shooting. You are a very strong player. I see that you use your right eye over the cue. Are you right eye dominant? I am left eye dominant but I am right handed. Anyways, once again. Congrats on another great run.

379..... Congrats Danny on such a wonderful run. You surely are a gifted player. That is something that you can always be proud of.

Thumbs Up Very nice article & photos. I enjoyed reading it, specially the part on the family history. Congrats Max.

Match #1 Thanks for posting Dennis. I watched the first match. Nice going Jim. Good match. Will watch the other two within time. PS: Danny's right, you need to lose that "9ball".

Thumbs Up You have really done a beautiful job on that basement. Really great room with a great table. With a ball return..... nothing better. I have never seen a Gold Crown with out the built in score keepers in the rail. Did you replace that bottom rail with a upper one? Also, just my...

1st rack OK, being serious here for a second. Shooting that 14 ball in the upper right corner was the correct shot. The problem was, you did not get any draw at all. With some draw, the 10 ball would of been perfect to set up on that key ball in the side. On another note, the shot on the key...

Thumbs Up Good story. I enjoyed reading it. That newspaper clip thing must be a "old timer" thing b/c Leroy Kinman had pulled out of his wallet a old newspaper article that was all folded up of him beating Pete Margo in a tournament up in Chicago back in the 60's. That old timer must of...

Agree I totally agree with you. I have often thought about those amazing high runs. I have come to the conclusion that these few players that hit those unbelievable numbers are gifted with above average Eye-Hand coordination. There are players like these in every sport that stand above the...

What are we doing????? I think that we are building up this guy too much....... Did we all forget that I still have to play him again.....

Dallas Just seen this Thread..... this should of been posted on the 14.1 Forum too.

70 Nice run by one of the best. I would of played for a side pocket break shot with the 10 ball. if I was in that situation leading up to the break ball, which was sitting pretty high off the rack. A little follow on the 5 ball (key ball) would of set up a nice side pocket break. He could of...

70 Really nice run. That run had 100 written all over it. It's a shame it ended. Just a little off on position to the key shot, which lead to being off on the break shot. BUT.... they all end one way or another. Good work Jim. I can tell that you will soon be a memeber of the "100 Club".

70..... Nice run by 9balljim & a good run by our own Dennis. (I like the comment when the cue almost went into the side pocket at the end of the run....LOL).

You are on the right track.... What cloth do you play on? How many shots ahead do you normally think about? Your ability to pot balls is awesome. What aiming system do you use? I know it's relative but, how long have you been playing (14.1)? 1):I have Simonis 860 cloth on my table. I have...
