  • 1994 Ball, Draw a Line Perpendicular to El-E, and Extend It Until It Meets the Extended Path of the Object Ball at E2
    How Tough is Tough? by BOB JEWETT DOES A LONG, straight shot require more accuracy than a shorter thin cut? Is a bank or a cut easier? The answer is partly individual; you might love thin cut shots but dread long shots. Such prefer- ences aside, simple geometry can be used to assign a difficulty factor to each shot and allow an objective comparison. The basic difficulty of a shot is deter- mined by two distances: how far the cue ball travels to the object ball and how far the object ball travels to the pocket. Let's measure these distances in diamonds. The difficulty on a straight shot is found by multiplying these two distances together. Figure 1 has several examples. Shot A has each distance equal to one, so its diffi- culty is 1 = 1 x 1. Shot B has each distance equal to two for a difficulty of four. C, at 12 (3 x 4), starts to be tough enough you might look for another shot or safety. This difficulty number tells you directly how accurate your mechanics have to be on the shot. Let's assume that your bridge hand is placed perfectly, and all the error is in where your grip hand is at the instant of tip-to-ball impact. Using similar triangles, typical pocket size, and average wing span, it turns out that the total "window" for your back hand to come through is just one over the difficulty factor, with the an- swer in inches. Shot C is a 12, so the win- dow is only a twelfth of an inch wide, or a twenty-fourth of an inch to either side of perfect.

  • Official Rules of the BCA Pool League
    2010-2011 Official Rules of the BCA Pool League Our Goal To create and improve opportunities for pool players of all abilities through fair governance and equitable policies. Effective June 1, 2010 BCA Pool League 2041 Pabco Road Henderson, NV 89011 (702) 719-7665 OFFICIAL RULES OF THE BCA POOL LEAGUE www.playbca.com Copyright 2010 BCA Pool League A Message from Mark Griffin Welcome to the 2010-2011 edition of the Official Rules of the BCA Pool League (BCAPL). Our organization has received widespread praise for having the most detailed and clear set of rules in the industry. Comments from players, officials and league operators are overwhelmingly in favor of our approach to presenting rules that guarantee consistency in enforcement throughout all league competition and tournaments. Mike Shamos, resident rules guru for Billiards Digest and one of pool’s most respected individuals, wrote: “The Official Rules of the BCA Pool League are the most extensive set of rules in history, and for the first time they are accompanied by interpretive decisions. The “Applied Rulings” section deserves serious study. It is of course impossible to write a rule set that deals with every conceivable happenstance. Even the USGA rules don’t try to do that. Therefore, referees and tournament directors must be guided by interpretations so they can make intelligent rulings when new situations arise. I’m not declaring their rules to be perfect, but they try to be. The rules themselves and their interpretations have been given a great deal of thought, and the reasoning behind them is not hidden but is right there on the page.

Targeted for the everyday, fun-loving league player who dreams of the opportunity to attend a World Championship to experience this pool frenzy with fellow pool players around the World and find a very fair and competitive playing surface. SPECIAL APPEARANCE: World’s #1 Pool Player and VNEA Pro Player Representative - Shane Van Boening!
