this just popped up..enjoying

was playing the other day, and it occurred that I should consider my eyes more on the shot I know I start with my eyes on the cb, and end with my eyes on the ob beyond that I confess I don't really have a routine, I just kind of go with the flow wondering what you all think is a good way to...

you do enough ass-kicking here on azb I'm not surprised cancer got it too ^_^ wishing you good health, gar!!

I like it- thanks!

thanks, I'll try it. I've only ever done five at a time, and think it helped that the balls were so close together for me to get in a rhythm. that said, getting a little out of line in that situation has also been a killer :) mixing it up by taking balls out and changing the number of balls...

I thought of this after learning about the digicue😄 logical progression..and super cool that you're making it happen! look forward to its evolution💪

thanks for watching, and for the critique. I'll have to watch the video and focus looking at my feet. in my head, my stance doesn't change very much, but I'll look with that specifically in mind. I'm not sure I understand the "I'm getting away with it because I'm shooting easy shots" idea...

thanks bob, this sounds like a fun, telling drill. I'll def give it a try. I've done this one a few times- I've had rounds where I got through it easily, and then not ^_^ precision clearly makes it easier to get through (like any pool rack, I guess..) there is one sort of-local person I'm...

huh? I literally just said I *wasn't* being sarcastic. I also said I felt the need to be defensive, because you were challenging me if I were being defensive in a stubborn, selfish way I wouldn't have admitted it I thought by reiterating/reexplaining myself, that would help you help me.. I feel...

question about this..I've wondered if putting holes in a tip weakens the tip/creates places for a lot of chalk to live, and what that means for play ?

first, not sure your motivation but I appreciate you editing your post that said I was being sarcastic. for the record, I wasn't. I was honestly just trying to explain to your comment/question about my feet, that I'd already been looking at that, evidence of which can still be found above in...

thanks for the reply, I'll check this out I see footwork as being important in pool, and strive to be stable and comfortable and I think I've been improving in this respect- but I'm obviously not 100% settled do you have any general tips or recommend any writings on the subject of de feet?

I can't tell if you're serious, or not. I'm wearing a mask because it's a pandemic, and I'm in public. I'm wearing a hat because I'm cold. I said "I don't know" because I can't see my feet here. I pointed out my hypothesis as to why my body appears the way it does. I posted this thread...

good question. I don't know. if I had to guess, I would say my feet are maybe closer together than is typical for me and I'm wondering if I'm kind of scrunching my position/making my body more compact, maybe out of respect/fear of shooting off the rail and because I'm scrunched in some ways I...

a still from a video I took of myself..alignment looks ok, but obviously angled I'm not sure why I appear so crooked, but I'm adjusting because I'm on the rail I guess I'm looking for any nuggets on positioning oneself, shooting off the rubber and please let me know if you see anything in the...

not sure what a vantage shaft weighs, but what I've seen of kielwood shaft weight has deterred me from pursuing one I thought the torrefaction process produces a lighter product- wondering how they can be heavier, and how heavy?

well said

good point, and something I think is easy to ignore..weight can be the same, but if you don't like the balance point of the butt, it could throw the cue off
