    Thoughts on permanent practise markings

    Permanant marks I found a drill here called the "colin drill" I think. I have been using this for several months now and my potting has greatly improved. I had been using stick on spots but about when covid hit I just decided to use a sharpie to permanently marl the spots. I have Tour Blue...

    Important Tips for Beginners

    Sharivari I really do enjoy your lessons. I won't make a youtube account so I can never follow anyone on that platform but I can still watch. Good luck with your new place. I think if I was teaching someone new to play I would try to get them to learn to hit the ball straight up the table and...

    Can you play decent pool using both your right and left hands?

    Both sides I do try to play right handed and can have some success. Most of my other sports I play right handed but have always played lefty for pool. I am right eye dominant and I think I can site the line better righty which is the reason I have toyed with the idea of switching permanently...

    touch of inside. CJ has me hooked

    Trouble with draw shots CJ Thanks again for taking time to consider my problem. HE as well. Yesterday I spent time with TOI and draw. What I did was follow CJ's advise and cue up close to the cloth and then move over a bit to the inside. Previously I was addressing the ball to the inside...

    touch of inside. CJ has me hooked

    Thanks CJ Thanks for the detailed response! I started all my drills shots yesterday using the equator with TOI. I could see that you always use low as I notice many pros seem to do. Today I am noticing that when I put low in with my TOI I am less accurate. I guess you could say that I have...

    touch of inside. CJ has me hooked

    Toi I signed up for CJ's website the other day and watched the TOI video and the TOI Banks yesterday. I spent about 4 or 5 hours hitting long table length slight angle shots using the system and I really had a good feel for it. I am hoping to take this all the way and convert my game to TOI...

    Can't find a fargo rate on some of the more famous pool instructors

    CJ explains why I watched CJ's video today and he explained why top pros don't explain how they aim saying adding too much conscious thinking at the table breaks the zone that they are trying to stay in. I think this gives a possible reason why some Instructors are not as good players as their...

    Get On the Plane

    Focus Recently I have decided that my focus drifts at the moment of contact. I know I am "looking" at the ball but I'm not properly "focused" on the ball. This is my struggle. I think it may be some sort of attention deficit, and I am learning through Pool that this is a constant in all...

    Question on balls

    Predator Balls I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the Predator balls. After watching the Diamond Las Vegas Open I thought they were really nice looking. I even considered buying them even though my Duramith balls are only 18 months old.
