Did I miss something? Why aren't you returning the Balance-Rite for one that's straight?

I got similar advice from Jerry Briesath. Recognizing that progressing from one rack to the next is most dependent on the next break shot, he advised practicing for 14.1 in this way: Starting with a clear table, first place a break ball. Then place the key ball. Then place a key to the key...

Norfolk? I thought the US Open 9B was being moved to Vegas and in April rather than October. Sure hard to keep up...

Thanks, I understand this response and appreciate your effort. I've also noticed that once (anyone's) multiple videos are posted to youtube, it is often difficult to determine the sequence that the author intended. If this is overcome in some manner - perhaps with a series of guiding links on...

So I just read back my original post and I have no idea why it triggered the hostile replies rather than straightforward opinions on the questions posted.

In a recent thread, Spidey reported on Stan's progress with "the book". Nobody seems to know when it will be finally released, but according to Stan, it's progressing. I'm wondering if the book will really be enlightening to those like me that don't understand much after two DVDs and quite a...

Wow! I didn't see that coming.

So... no new information on when the book will finally come out?

Sounds promising. Should one study them in (pretty much) the order in which they were written?

They were using these at Derby City this year and I thought they were great. Diamond's wooden racks have always had a saw kerf on the side intended to be nearest the racker. If you have a line drawn on the cloth from the foot spot straight back toward the racker, it is easy to see if the back...

I agree that it's not a foul, but it seems odd that while this is okay, it's not okay to use a ball to measure clearance from a cushion for example. Seems like the same kind of thing.

I've been hearing about it for a long time now. I have both DVDs and still need something more to understand. It sure would be great if any new material was reviewed by at least a few people that aren't already familiar with the methods before it is released. It seems to me that people who...

I've attended this event twice and would love to continue, but with the US Open 9B moving to Vegas, it may be difficult to draw all those top players to the Richmond area in the future. I think the US Open 9B tournament made allowances for the 14.1 players in the final round showing up late...

Makes you wonder where they were looking doesn't it?

But be careful... I'm a recently retired software developer and my advice is whatever you choose, you should probably do it the old fashioned way too - on paper - at least the first tourney or two. Sure it's twice the work, but you don't want to have all the airline seats occupied by paying...

First of all, longer does not necessarily mean heavier. I have a 6" extension made of plastic rather than wood. After removing the original weight bolt, the extended cue weighs 19.5 oz. The extension was made for me by Rolando Aravena at Strokers in Palm Harbor, FL and he made it to screw into...

I understand that the Chalk Shark chalker has two magnets and that (together) they are very strong. Just look at the (third) demonstration photo showing the magnets holding together despite fingers between them: https://www.pooldawg.com/chalk-shark-leather-magnetic-chalker But exactly how...

Much more info on the subject Here's a Dr. Dave link that covers the subject more fully and offers various useful techniques for achieving proper alignment. Highly recommended reading... http://billiards.colostate.edu/threads/eyes.html#vision_center
