  • I am wondering why a table that does not play on system for the corner 5, does play on system for the "plus" system, or vice versa.

  • @drtrotter74

    First of all, almost no pool table plays perfectly "on system" with the Corner-5 system, because the tracks off the third rail go well short of those predicted by 3-cushion-billiard table tracks (although, the 3rd-rail formula works fairly well on most tables).

    For a lot more info on both the Plus and Corner-5 systems, see my recent series of BD articles, which are available on my website.

  • Wow that is a nifty trick.

  • @capoman1

    Agreed ... but it does require specific practice for a particular corner on a particular table.

  • Very nice video, but I was wondering how you would adjust the spot on the wall method to hit a target ,say a diamond longer or shorter than the reference pocket?

  • That depends on the number of rails. For more info, go to the FAQ section of my website (see the URL in the video description) and click on "banks and kicks" and check out the stuff under "diamond systems." Also, Disc IV of VEPS will have a lot of useful information and systems for kicking and banking.

  • @drtrotter74 my table with play dead on for the corner 5, but always plays a rail long on the "plus" system. I have tried various positions, and it seems to be this way. Does it have to do with there being a 3 rail kick vs. a 2 rail kick?

  • where did you see his video? i would like to see his method thanks

  • i think dr cue's method works much better, he does his 1-9 number method and he just makes the ball parallel to the corresponding diamond spots

  • Sorry, but I don't have a book by that name, and I haven't heard of the Kilgore system before.

    I'm glad you like the video.

    Regards,

    Dr. Dave
