The draw cue arrived

The magic is a little weak if it takes skill to make it work.

In my test the OB's rebound distance depends only on the CB's speed at impact - the amount of draw on the CB doesn't affect it. That's how it can test your draw efficiency (the spin-to-speed ratio you can achieve - aka how low you can hit).
Quicker and easier than video, and lots of things are easier to demonstrate when you can optimize things like speed, spin and aim to show what you want.
I probably put that together at the pool hall while practicing - I do a lot of my posting here during practice breaks.pj

Still problems with your model. I dont play the virtual game so I don't know how "real" the results are
I am not ridiculing the virtual game I just am not familiar with it.
Virtual Pool's physics are surprisingly accurate for the most part - I've done this test before on pool tables and the results shown here don't obviously defy reality, but they are probably about the best that could be achieved (because the simulation can easily be set to optimal tip offset, stroke speed, aim, etc.).I dont play the virtual game so I don't know how "real" the results are
Anyway, in this case the pic is just to illustrate how the test is done and what the goal is. In real life with normal conditions it's pretty good to get the CB back to the near end rail without the OB rebounding all the way back there too.

Still think to end the controversy on the cue... you need to let someone like
Dr-Dave-Billiards test the cue or someone like him... & it needs to go thru a
bunch of tests ON VIDEO to prove if it draws better then a normal cue...
Just my humble opinion...
By the way --- Happy Birthday Dean!!!
I agree. I'd like to see Dr. Dave put it through testing on high-speed video.
You need to play more with diff cues.
Aside from squirt, I think the only cue quality that physically matters is power transference, which simply allows slightly less stroke speed.

interesting
The best virtual games have some value as practice equipment. I went through some pool books like Banking With the Beard and what worked on the virtual table took surprisingly little adjustments to work on a blue label Diamond. Great for working on pattern play too.
One thing, the virtual pool shows what you could do if you always had perfect aim(sorry gene) and a perfect stroke. Comparing the results on the computer and on the nine foot table was pretty embarrassing for me!:embarrassed2:

If you are going to get somebody to really test it, get a pool player with a good stroke...not a "pool scientist".
