Just noticed another slip stroke at 46:08 where Cole shoots the 5-ball.

Cole Dickson: Livin' large off the fat of the land, already a seasoned road player at 18. I think it is almost like a miracle that we can actually see a decent quality video of the Luat vs. Dickson One-Pocket match from Accu-Stats. I don't think there is any other really good quality video of...

Did you know that if you go out on a rainy stormy night you could also be struck by lightning? I'll be back in a week or so then we'll see if I have something worthy of further discussion. Later...

Seem like you must have gone right to the videos. You can see above that I did say: "I'm still moving around when I shoot my stroke is not straight most often and my stroke is not smooth I can fix these" I'm well aware. I'll be back in a week or sooner. We may have more to discuss then...

I'm not sure what you mean by "range." Straight in shot: The cue ball is placed about 2 diamonds from the rail I'm shooting from. And the object ball is about 3 rails from the pocket and anywhere from 1-2 diamonds from the side rail. Long cut shot: The object ball is 1 ball width from the rail...

I'm currently dealing with this personally with my pool game. It's called discipline. But I'm making remarkable progress. Check out my progress in the videos I just posted Find links in this thread: "Champion/Pro or Shortstop/Amateur/Banger. It's your choice."

Again, if I wasn't clear or you just didn't get it, I am not trying to make a particular shot I am trying to learn a process, a technique, a step by step roadmap I am trying to master the game for now, at least, master making 95+% of the shots anyone can be taught this the hard part is the...

What was the thinking? L.A. County and Orange County are big places with lots of people. With no alcohol and no kitchen, why Bellflower, of all places?

Chasing that Pool 'Jones' Some guys don't get it. Pool doesn't do it for them. But we get it. We know why. We feel it. And that's enough. Why do you shoot when you shouldn't shoot? It is the reward you are anticipating if you make the shot. It's that dopamine rush that you're going to get...

From the age of 15 - 18 I probably played not more than 100 hours because I was always broke. from 71 - 75 I probably played no more than 20 hours. from 75 - 2013 probably 100 hours. from 2013 to 2022 probably 2000 hours mostly at Hard Times. but in all cases, I was little more than a...

Here are two more videos. (actually these expire in 24 hours. I'll use a better camera angle next time.) The shot: straight in. Cue ball 1.5 diamonds off foot rail. Object ball 3 diamonds from pocket. I could have posted 5 more but they wouldn't have enlightened you any more than these...

How true. A winner never quits. A quitter never wins.

It's not so much trying to make tough shots as it is practicing tough shots to hone your skills under pressure. The math wasn't meant to be anything more than to indicate that with each error on the several requisites required to make the shot, no matter how slight, the likelihood of making...

I know you're trying to make a point. But it's pretty thin. I'm not laughing too hard. Do you really know good or strong shot makers that don't play position or play poor position? Maybe a strong position player has a chance of beating a less skilled position player who is a good shot maker...

I met a guy back in 1975. I believe his name was Rick. He told me that he had come in second place in the New York 14:1 tournament. He didn't say if it was city or state. I'm starting research just to see if I can find out any information about these old tournaments. I found out that Danny...

Pretending? Disingenuous? Okay. You've taken a position. You've made a stand. Fair enough. We'll see.

these videos automatically delete after 24 hours. when you see the next videos, this issue, along with others, will be resolved. Like day and night, I expect this to demonstrate the power of my technique to efficiently and rapidly correct the fundamental flaws most of us have acquired over years...

Yes. I recommend taking a video of yourself shooting. Then compare what you see with videos of the champions and pros. What are they doing that you are not doing. Yes. I should be able to lock everything down soon enough. I just need to pay attention. And make a little more effort. Let me...

that's just the first step. there are 4 more steps: the shot line, cue stick center axis, alignment, locking it all down. but again, everything is right there in front of your eyes. from the moment you stand before the table to when you release the cue ball. nothing is hidden from you. you are...

I've been thinking of making the trip to the old Hard Times building in Bellflower just to see what, if anything, is going on there. If anyone can shed some light and save me the trip I'd appreciate it. I've also been wondering if the first owner I knew of was either Kenny or Kinney. Driving me...
