    Like Popeye said .....

    I'm very glad this method works for you. This is similar on how I was taught to aim when I first started playing pool. I have since moved to something that works much better for me. I have a difficult time seeing the spot 'on the ball' where I need to hit. So, while this method may work...

    CTE experiment, with civil discussion

    Mike... Thank you for going over all of this. Maybe I should have stated in my post that I already know how to aim and pocket balls. (I personally am very good at seeing where the cueball would contact the table when lined up with the object ball to any part of a pocket/rail. I then roll the...

    CTE experiment, with civil discussion

    I have been desperately trying to understand CTE. I've been reading along with this discussion pretty much the whole way through. Here are some things I noticed in Spidey's videos and in JB's videos. In Spideys video, he states he pivots from around his cue's joint. To me, his cue joint...

    The most common mistake U see low SL's make?

    Lets see..... Mechanics wise: Hitting too hard for no apparent reason. Getting up while stroking. Unstable bridge. Off balance stance. These would be the things I see most. Head height really isn't something that I think of as an issue. I've seen lots of them that are really low on the cue...

    Cue table problem with Mac

    When you hear terms like 16 bit and 32 bit applications, or operating systems, the 'bit' is referring to the length of a command (instruction if you will). So.. if you have an application that is giving your computer's browser instructions that are 32-bits in length, and you're browser is...

    Can We Take Some Luck out of 9-ball?

    JT- I'll just leave this here.. Grady’s 9 Ball Rules It’s call shot but it is not necessary to call obvious shots. Only one ball may be called on one shot. If the called ball is pocketed legally, everything else that might go is good. If a player misses a called shot, his opponent has...

    the new cue itch ....why do we get it ??

    Why is the grass greener on the other side? It's not the having, it's the getting. It all started when we were kids, and a friend got something new, and you wanted it too.. He was having so much fun with it, and you wanted that. If/When you got it, the first couple of days were great.. after...

    i'm going to vegas! how do i get my cues there?

    Since the 'Ban', we've been packing our cue cases in our luggage. The challenge has been finding a piece of luggage that works well. High Sierra Sports Company has a decent rolling duffel that has some pretty good reviews. Here's a link. If you're not wanting to put it in your luggage, then...

    boys dressing badly

    Wait a minute.... NASCAR has a dress code? Drivers have worn jumpsuits for as long as I can recall. Any and all old footage has them wearing jumpsuits. Or are you talking about everyday life, when they wear t-shirts and jeans like I've seen Junior do? Not getting the whole dress code in...

    boys dressing badly

    Yea.. because that hasn't worked for X games at all... It all depends on your demographic. Are you wanting to attract new young talent? Then get sponsors who will market to younger people. Most sponsored tournaments have dress codes. All televised events have very specific dress codes...

    boys dressing badly

    Lets see.. other individual sports... Golf - usually at a country club, and the tournaments have dress codes. Have seen plenty of concert t-shirts and shorts and flip flops on public courses. BMX - No real dress code here.. Usually the clothing worn is for protection and sponsorship. Again...

    a$$ weights and beekeeper's suits?!?

    Earl is a gadget guy. He likes gadgets. His blue classes. His special gloves. The arm band. Ad nauseum. Joe Rogan was making fun of this fact by saying, as Earl, that one must wear butt weights and a bee keepers suit before they'll be able to play. Nothing more than that.
