Nice......I have the same thread conversion on my normal playing cue.... but that cue is currently in the shop.....I make custom TPU two tone butt caps...One that use the same thread pattern as the P-conversion.........I experienced the same "slip" you mention on an PLA extension..... my plan...

I watched all the VHS tapes of the Efren Earl 100k match from years ago...I don't know what the Accu Stats would have been...but there was not many misses from either...some of the purest 9-ball on older slower equipment I have seen Earl was the purest ball pocketer in his prime....IMO

Physical shark or mental shark???? Physical.....There is the standard "cue shift" on the money ball...the jingling of the keys or crossing the legs....etc. etc. Mental.....Verbal aggression.....passive aggression comments.....Even passive seemingly meaningless complimentary comments trying to...

You missed an important part of my analogy.....The CB is not the front sight post....The CB is the bullet....The front sight post is the ferrule or tip. Your eyes move back and forth between tip/shaft alignment and target....just like a gun when your focus shifts from one to the other one gets...

That GAS method can also be applied (in pool) for speed of shot I would think as that is a method in Golf for judging long putts.

You kind of answered your own question....It is different based on the person - ability and quality of practice.... Some people think they are practicing but in reality are just engraining bad habits...Quality of practice must be defined before "how much practice". Sure there is physical...

Meh.....For 99% of the shots It is like shooting a gun.....You look at what you are trying to shoot.....From my perspective....The cue is the gun...The CB is the bullet.....The OB is my target........sure...in pool the bullet is fired from outside the gun....but it is still the bullet....as long...

I was playing around with this shot....A 1/2 ball hit medium speed with left english....the 7 ball went to the side rail...the 8 banked two rails all the way down by the 9 creating a bigger wall...the CB ends up on the lower diamond on the end rail. Full transparency...If I had come across...

Depends on the game for me......and in some cases "why" I am watching. If I am watching 1-pocket...for sure Frost.....He knows what is supposed to happen (and why) or why it was not the right shot...Billy (Grady) on all games for the same reason. If I am watching for the purpose of trying to...

Sounds like this should be posted in WOMPI.

Of course skill level plays a role....for fun and a weak player...I may go for Patrick's bank shot suggestion......IMO....the 7 to the side rail is a soft touch shot....very easy to either over hit and sell out a shot or easy safe....or the other extreme of not driving a ball to the rail trying...

Left side of the 7...left English on CB two rails behind the 9.....hopefully right on the end rail center diamond...(that is my target anyway)

I have tried to describe it in post before.....(much easier to show in person) ...His video is pretty much exactly how I aim especially for all shot where the aim point is "on the ball" or shaft edge is "on the ball".....I do a variation of what he shows at 2:37.......As I am standing up I do a...

Messing around I made one of these a while back...I think I deleted the file...LOL.......about .4mm thick....OB slots into the indent.......Good visual reference for where GB center is...might be good for a beginner that does not have alternative methods for finding GB center. May also be a...

Actually that "is" how it works with most standard deflection shafts.......You set up as if to hit no spin....There are two ways to apply BHE....one is you can pivot your back hand left or right (holding the bridge hand solid) to the desired amount of tip offset.....the other is to apply the BHE...

Based on this excellent post and also a recent thread regarding multiple entities after the same pie (which smacks of a similar occurrence years ago with the Camel Tour)...which was the nail in the coffin for ESPN and IMO really killed the growth of the sport. I wonder if the main entities...

I'm gonna guess you are a 645+ I want to start playing in that .....My main problem for the last 5 years is I get up at 1 AM for work....I am DOT regulated....It would not be a good look for me if I was in a wreck and the lawyer asked me what I was doing from 7-1 the night before... Gonna try...

Is that a pool room or pool table museum?

I wonder if there are others in a similar situation as myself....One minute I feell like I can make any and every ball on the table and pocketing balls is effortless....The next minute....can't seem to find the pocket.....I have astigmatisms in both eyes....1 vertical 1 diagonal.....problem with...
