Just checking to see if this already exists, otherwise, I'm coining the term here: TLAR = That Looks About Right. I've been playing pool for 12 years. Started my freshman year of college in 2003. Spent hours everyday in the student union. Then started going to bars. Then got my own table...

I think I've developed a lot of good stroke and bridge fundamentals. I keep my stroke arm moving straight and my bridge very stable and solid all the way through the final stroke. Sometimes, particularly on shots with my bridge on the rail, I tense my bridge hand a good bit. Not the point...

Why is hard to shoot when the cue ball is frozen to the cushion? I know it's an awkward position, but why is it awkward? Why do I miss these shots (I'm a lot better than I used to be but still inconsistent)? Is it because of accidental masse? I have a good stroke, but if I'm ever a little...

I read a short article in an APA newsletter and a woman was giving beginner advice about the importance of establishing a stable bridge hand and pure stroke, because "pool is a game where millimeters count." Well put. I'm not a body builder, but I do lift weights pretty regularly. I played...
