$500 - I am selling a Cuetrack Stroke Trainer in amazing condition, with its original box and paperwork. These went out of production about 9 years ago and are almost impossible to find, in any condition. It is a fantastic training aid; you slip the tube over your cue and then cue within the prongs (see pictures). This device forces you to stroke in a perfectly straight line, and as a result you will develop the muscle memory to cue perfectly straight.

While I'm not in the market to spend $500 on this, I'd really like to try building one of these for myself. Would you be willing to measure and share the dimensions? Length and diameter of the tube and length, diameter, and spacing of the pins.
Thank you.
Thank you.

It's actually a very good device. Do some research on it, please. It gives you no choice but to stroke dead straight since any side movement is eliminated. I am in the Houston area and would be happy to let someone try it out

Why do people think they need a device.. just play the game skill will come. Just like anything else you don't need this
Here is one from the forum.

My experience is that there are very few things in life that you can get REALLY good at on your own, without some form of training. You can certainly get better and learn to compensate for poor form, but that's not a substitute for directed training.
theres too much going on to figure it out on you own , everyone needs guidance
Well there are two kinds of devices.
Ones that help.
Ones that do not help.
Deciding on what one you have is personal thing.
This one look intresting.

I do think this simple idea would be helpful to a beginner to get the right idea on stroking straight. For me, now, I start every practice session with two balls about a ball and a half apart at the foot spot and try to stroke the cue ball up and back between those two balls without touching them. I also watch for my cue tip to end up beyond and directly centered on the foot spot.
You cannot accomplish this drill and do even three in a row without a reasonably straight stroke. I follow this up with several shots using stop, follow, and draw with the CB and OB each 4 feet apart and directly centered in line with two diagonal corner pockets.
When you are really stroking straight the CB will follow the OB into the pocket and the draw will bring the CB back in a very straight line. I do this every single practice session to start- really helps for the rest of your session.
