Please tell me that you aren't being serious in your statements! A trick shot template?? Why, because it will get the balls frozen like they are supposed to be...
I play straight pool with it so Im sure 8 ball wouldn't be a problem.
The site I just ordered the slug doctor did not offer an 8 ball rack (Pool Dawg), so I incorrectly assumed it wasn't available.
There are 2 ways and only 2 ways to make balls on the break: The balls are either slopped in the pockets or they are wired in the pockets. I do not think that these balls should be rewarded. Racking gadgets are built to increase the likelihood of slopped and wired balls. What a lousy way to start our short games. Have we not learned anything from decades mired in all this racking and breaking controversy with endless fighting and a trendy new gadget every other year. It just goes on and on. Get rid of the impact of the slopped and wired ball and all the desire for these gadgets will just evaporate. No one will have a use for them. We will have better games.
I also am not a fan of the pattern racking made easy and that I see with these new racking gadgets.
Even if you don't have to make a ball on the break guys are still gonna want a consistently good rack so they can get consistent results, like CB control and a shot on the one ball.
....You guys would be amazed at how many times I have heard someone tell me they don't like the magic rack because they can't make a ball using it! You still have to know how to break to make a ball, no matter what rack you use.
... Freezing the balls is not the problem. The gadgets are not the problem. The ball on the break is the problem. Fix that. I did. Nine tournaments using the No Conflict Rules tell the story. It's easy.
Paul - I like your racking rules! Certainly takes away the issue of pattern racking. I have seen pics of yoru place, and the tables look very well kept. The problem is the quality of our tables where we play at league. Almost impossible to get a tight 9-ball rack with all the divots. Literally need to move the rack significantly up or down to even get close. If I played on better cloth, I'd be happy to use a standard rack.
