Racking Secrets with Joe Tucker DVD
- Thread starter berlowmj2

Joe's DVD is excellent. My advice, put it in your notebook/laptop and take it to the table and practice it for yourself. That's what I did and it is a very good way to see for yourself what he's pointing out on the video.
You missed out if you didn't buy "The Great Break Shot" by Charley Bond when you were at the Derby.
Get that book as it has Joe Tuckers racking secrets in it. This a copy of the same book that Joe had but is now out of print. Charley has reprinted the whole thing in his book. It is basically a printed version of what Joe has in the DVD.

It's very good information. You made a good investment.
Watch it, understand it, apply it. Then, expand on it by adding your own learnings.
okinawa77...Very good advice. Then, after you learn to apply it, you can share what you learned, with others, like on here. :grin: Joe's a great instructor, a great professional player, an all-around nice guy :grin:...and his information is solid. Mr. Bond's (ceebee on here) book is really good information too! The BreakRak speaks for itself! :thumbup:

Yeah, I emailed Joe Tucker awhile back, inquiring if/when another racking secrets would come out. I had mentioned to him a few things I learned. I can't recall, but I think he had some additions, but not ready to put a second edition out, yet.
One thing I mentioned, that I learned in Japan at a place called Flannel (Nishi-Takashi-Madaira, Japan.....where pro player, Naoyuki Oi, is sponsored)....is if you have a perfect 9 ball rack (all balls frozen to each other, and rack placed perfect without any tilt), then break 1 ball width from the side rail at the head string. Aim straight at the head ball (1ball) and hit is perfectly straight (stop shot or a little draw back).
I was able to pocket the wing ball 15 times in a row on the break.
