    The hardest thing to teach lower skill level players

    As an absolute beginner let me give you some insight as to how I look at the table. Take 8-ball for instance, if I can spread the balls enough on the break to make a difference then I look at the table to see which balls, solid or strip, have an advantage. Once that is established I look for...

    Production cues quaility

    I would have no problem believing this could be humidity related. While Denver is not as dry Las Vegas it does have a slightly larger AM/PM swing in humidity difference. Any wood product, especially cues with different wood species and materials, that were not kiln dried/seasoned and then...

    Your Cut Shot Target?

    As an update ... I appreciate all the advice, but I am still having problems. I am starting to think it is more related to stance and stroke, and follow-thru plus leaving my head down, so basically, technique. I think once I correct this part of my game I will progress fairly quickly, it's my...

    Video Encyclopedia of Pool Shots ... Rocks!

    As a new player I ordered the VEPS and IPPB package the other night, my only hope being that I will stop getting my azz kick by my wife LOL. Of course, I will have to keep the videos a secret :eek: At any rate, I have always enjoyed Dr Dave's site and the practical explantions, thanks!

    Good Things....

    What a great way to help the game! As a sell to the parents, if you're not already doing so, you could also push it as a learning experience, geometry and physics, so long as you teach it that way, maybe keep it light so the kids don't even know they are learning, such as what makes the ball...

    Lucasi Hybrid

    I am pretty new to pool/billiards and had no idea what I wanted for a cue so I went with a Lucasi LH40 and a McDermott MG05 to start off with, I was hoping for two completely different cues and thats what I got, and, I didn't want to spend a fortune. I bought the Lucasi for me and the McDermott...

    Your Cut Shot Target?

    Thanks for all the great info, it appears the majority aim for the OB target, so I will try that. I've had a bit of a plumbing emergency and haven't had time to try any of the other tidbits presented, but I will try it and see what happens. Russ, inside english? Is that as you hit the ball or...

    Your Cut Shot Target?

    I am new here, and am having trouble with certain cut shots, mostly long thin cuts. So I have been experimenting with certain aiming targets and find that I seem to be most sucessful with looking at the exact spot on the CB for these type of shots, instead of looking at the target spot on the...

    Newbie intro

    I'll keep an eye out for those charaters KoolKat :D I bought the table from someone in my same town, Monument. If I knew I was going to fall into a bit of good luck, which NEVER happens, I would have went with a new table, with someone like Diamond, etc; but I didn't know until almost a week...
