Are there any stickers or temporary markers available for training? Where I'd stick it on a table as a spot to know where my cue ball should land. For training purposes.

Let me know, if you guys know any

Thanks
Tim
 
You can use hole reenforcers for protecting a page of paper when putting into a 3 ring binder. I call them donuts. Work really great. You can get them at any stationary store.

You can set up the same shot and shoot it over and over again until it sinks into your shot memory. Great way to train.

Good Luck!

I tried using those. I find it pretty harmful to my table's cloth cause whenever I'd take it off my table some parts of the cloth will stick to the hole reinforcers. :\

What kind of cloth is on your table?

That sounds odd, as many people have used these with great success. Unfortunately, you won't be able to find a temporary solution that doesn't use an adhesive of some sort... Unless you want to mark the spot with chalk, then clean it off when you are done.

Yes, the adhesive does pick up a few fibers from the cloth. But IMHO it's so few fibers that it doesn't have any meaningful impact on the condition of the cloth.

I've been doing this for years with Simonis cloth with no problems.
 
trick for page reinforcers

Put them on the back of your hand once or twice if needed so they're not quite as sticky.
 
For something temporary, you can use a white pencil used for sewing. This may be a shot you missed playing the ghost and want to temporarily mark the location in order to set it up a few times. I use the hole reinforcers a lot and haven't had problems. Of course I'm not overly picky about my table being absolutely pristine. It's a toy, it's a tool, I don't eat off of it.
 
Use blue painter's masking tape if you're worried about the surface. Tear it off as tiny as you need it to be.
