Patrick...This is what set you off on your newest petty, juvenile series of taunts.

I should have said "no system that makes any sense" because the same english required to offset CIT is also going to squirt and/or curve the CB along some curve adjusted for the speed of the shot and other variables.

Plus, what if you don't want to impart outside english or you want to impart inside english?

Jim

To which you replied..."are you saying using sidespin makes no sense?"

It is just utter stupidity for you to ask if my comment suggested any such thing. Have you never heard of a center ball hit...or any other hit on the vertical centerline?

You are making a fool of yourself with your childish little swipes.

You seem to enjoy raising the issue of IQ but it does not require a particularly high number to learn how to identify the person you are quoting.

But in this case identifying the person who posted the quote would not have served your purpose of decpetion...because it was YOU who posted the above question not me.

ROFLMAO

Well, then try Viagra...ANYTHING to put an end to your snippy little swipes.
Anything except to stop inviting them, apparently.

Glad you're going to take my advice. And be sure to let us know what you do about one of those 4 hour johnsons, Johnson.

You're not improving your apparent IQ by pretending that was a joke. Have somebody explain that to you.

Speaking of IQ, what level of IQ would a person have if he professes to be extremely knowledgable about pool but A) doestn't understand the benefits of a dime radius tip and B) thinks that few players use that radius because they can't maintain it very long?

Such a poster might submit the following....

"1. You don't have a problem if you don't have a dime shaped tip. In fact, dime shapes tend to become nickel or quarter shapes very quickly, so very few players play with one for long."

I imagine that you would attribute a quite low IQ to the author of the above who seems to have never heard of the process known as tip shaping.

Of course, the poster was you. So Patrick..JUST ONCE...don't dance around...don't change the subject...don't answer the question with another question...just respond clearly and directly....

Patrick, do you still think that few players use the dime radius because they are unable to easily maintain that shape?

I don't know, what's your IQ?

...do you still think that few players use the dime radius because they are unable to easily maintain that shape?

Has this question been bothering you? LOL.

I haven't changed my opinion about that, and it sounds like your understanding of my opinion hasn't improved, so pretty much status quo on that front, Jim. Thanks for asking.

You..."I haven't changed my opinion about that"

Fine. And all of your future ramblings...I mean opinions...should be given the credibility due to a man who has an admitted ignorance of the ease with which the dime radius can be maintainted.

Hi Ron, how have you been? I use your system when I have extreme cut shots that I have trouble seeing. It works great. I spent some tim,e with you and Jimmy M at Masters one night. Your jump rod is the best.
