Game Updated to Version 1.1 with Eye Height Feature Hello again, everyone. I had to take a break to clear my mind after 3 straight years of working on the Angle Detective system, video game and training tools. But I'm refreshed and back to announce that the game has been updated to include...

Field of View adjustment Here are two examples of the Field of View adjustment I mentioned. It is a continuous slider, but here is a setting of 15° and the upper extreme of 135°. I don't expect anyone to come close to playing at 135°, but I thought it was fun to include the option. From image 1...

Thank you. And if the game does well enough there are some features I'd like to add in future updates. I hear ya. The angles are accurate, but when I designed the game I wanted to make sure that the 3D translation from the 2D screen of a computer, phone or tablet to the real world looked as...

Hu, thank you so much for your generosity and willingness to review the game here! Both really help me. I need to know how to best get across to everyone the strengths of the game as well as the Angle Detective system itself. After being in tunnel-vision mode for 3 years I probably have several...

Thank you! I'm certainly not known for completing things, so this is definitely an achievement for me. I hope you like enjoy it. Thank, Tommy! Yes, I was exhausted when I posted this thread, and I forgot to mention that currently it is only released for Windows PC. But it will be released for...

Angle Detective Video Game Released Today (PC Version) Hello again, everyone. I can finally reveal this secret I've been keeping for a year. It's the Angle Detective video training game for pool and snooker. Currently it is only for Windows PC, but Android is coming soon and then iOS. Perhaps...

Big Update: Abridged Version and Over 200 New Images Hey, everyone. For the past two weeks I’ve been working hard on making the system more digestible. New Abridged Version Rather than having a separate section of the site for an abridged version of the Angle Detective system, I decided to...

Yes, I'll be doing that soon when I have a chance. Thanks for the feedback, bbb!

In The Beginning If anyone is interested in seeing how the Angle Detective system began, I found the 11-year old thread where I first posted the square and labeling idea. People thought I was crazy back then. I hope people don't think I'm any crazier now. Equally crazy is fine though. Of...

Thanks, Scott! Hopefully I can convince you and the others otherwise once I start putting up videos. Lots of practical things to have in your back pocket. I agree it's a lot to absorb in full form, but there are several very simple methods that might help in certain situations. Thanks, Bob...

Interesting, Patrick. I promise I didn't see that! I haven't been back to the aiming forum in a while. But I recall from many years ago that there is a phenomenon where when one completely separate group from a species discovers something, a group of the same species on the other side of the...

Hey, Duckie. I do go a little bit into the transfer of energy from CB to OB at the end of the Application section. And I agree that it's probably impossible to see angles way down to minutes and seconds, but fortunately most of us don't have to play into Kaisa pockets. So there's at least some...

That's very generous of you, Dave. Thanks so much! And yes, I'll definitely work on a video like that sometime soon and let you know. Thanks again!

I appreciate the feedback. And if there are specific topics that you think I could have worded better, please let me know. Thanks, BeiberLvr!

Thank you so much, Dave! I appreciate that. I agree that the full version is complex, but I'll do my best to make the abridged version easier to digest. I also plan to do videos, so that should help too. I think if I showed things such as how the Half Skip h-pattern is 3 quick-drawn lines (a...

Thank you, DecentShot. Best of luck with your book! That means a lot, Brian. Thank you. I've had tunnel vision for that past 3 years and no one to bounce things off of. It feels good to finally have it out there and to get new perspectives. I hope you enjoy what you read this weekend!

I totally understand. The problem I have is that there is a lot of information packed into the whole thing, but I start with geometry, which I know can be off-putting for many. Even beyond the Theory section, the methods themselves in the Application section have to be explained by pointing back...

Correction on "Angle Detective Geometry" page A reader pointed out an error that I had on the Angle Detective Geometry page of the Theory section. I have since corrected it. The 'F' rectangle was showing 5/8. It has been corrected to 6/8 or 3/4.

I hear you, couldnthinkof01. It's good to know that with enough of the right kind of practice, feel can be developed. As much as I thought I had tried everything, it's quite possible that I never worked hard enough or on the right drills. Thanks for the positive comments on what you've seen so far!

Awesome! Thank you! I guess you're one of those players that just has the gift. But I appreciate that you're still going to give the methods a try. And I appreciate that you appreciate the math of it all! Thanks, Brian! I want to mention that your Poolology release was among the reasons I...
