Sure, it was taught to me by the same person who taught it to her, the

Great One, and made her what she is today, that one, and the drill of

got it, she went on a rampage. It will take you to a place where you

cannot believe. You can hit any square inch of the table from a

straight in shot into the side by using no english, none, which I

thought was impossible, until it was revealed to me. These are of

course, the two most closely guarded inner secrets of the pros, that

they do no want you bangers knowing about. And of course the POL

aiming system. I got all 3 at the same time, took 2 full days to

absorb it all. Best dime I ever spent. Within a year, that dime made

10.

Potato digging Mick ???? If you would care to explain that remark this

poor dumb Irish lad face to face I would be glad to listen to your

explanation before explaining to you how the Irish who were enslaved,

starved, and murdered by the English object to your terminology. And what

might your ancestry be ?

Charlie,

The person you are responding to has a long history of insanity on this

newsgroup. Most everyone here has blocked him. Any response of any kind

only encourages him. If you block him then noone here ever sees anything

he writes. He is completely impotent.

Karen Corr's WPBA profile says that her favorite practice is the "diamond

drill". Anybody have an idea what she may be referring to?

The Diamond Drill according to Karen:

"Put all the balls on the rail next to the diamonds. Top rail has two

balls on it and foot rail one ball on it. It helps with rail shots."

Thanks Bob. There is actually a game made out of this in Honduras, where it

is the standard Pool game there. It's like Rotation, where you score points

for the number on the ball and they have to be shot in order, only the balls

are laid out on the rail by each diamond.

There's a video of this on this being played on my friend Mikie's blog here:

I've played Mikie and the initmitable "El Maestro" this game once and even

managed to run 4 balls at one point. It's an entirely evil game, but great

practice.

Another great variation of this I find great for Straight-pool or 8-ball

practice is to line up 9 balls on the diamonds nearest the corner pockets

and then setup two clusters of 3 balls in the middle of each end of the

table. Give yourself ball-in-hand and try and run the table. Make sure you

don't leave any dead combos in the clusters as the idea is to force you to

play break-out shots from the rail shots.

I'm missing something here, and this sounds like a great practice

scenario. The problem I have is that my table has four corners. If I

set a ball at each diamond nearest each corner, I used 8 balls. You

indicate 9. Where does the ninth one go?
