DRILL:  Long draws, run 8 and out, shoot down 4 diamonds,draw back 4
diamonds.  10-24-04 Four pages CR, Fast Larry Guninger all rights
reserved, Bpn, Upp, czm, Rsb.

The Wei table diagrams, how to open is at the bottom.  Because of a
lack of enough arrows this drill will be in 3 sections to see how the
run unfolds.  This is a draw drill for better players who have a good
draw but don't have a clue where the cue ball stops which is where
most league players are at.  If you think you do then run the drill
and find out to your surprise I am right, you don't have a clue where
whitey is going.  The only thing you do know it whitey is going up
table, where he stops, you have no idea.  This is not a drill for
beginners, this is an advanced level drill.

We show you running the 8 balls in rotation.  Try it if you can, but
that is an extreme challenge.  Just shoot any ball into any corner
pocket and try to get out that is tough enough.  If you make the one,
then the two in pocket A and blow shape on the three but have a shot
on the 6, then cross over to the other corner pocket B.  You can run
back and forth across the table all you want.

The problem is most players have a good draw but have poor distance
control.  You are now learning how to make long tough shots and draw
back into a specific place.   Then when a shot comes up in the game
which is shoot 4 dia down, draw back up 4, you know you have the feel
for it.
You shoot down 4 diamonds, draw back 4 diamonds and have a 2 diamond
area to shut down it.   If you hit or move any other ball than the one
you are shooting the run is over.  Put them back up and do it again.
Same thing if you draw back short of the kitchen, or you go through
the kitchen and hit the back head rail.   You can hit the long rails
in or out of the kitchen.  You are looking at this and going yeah yeah
I can do this.  Don't be too sure, go see and you might find out this
is a big reality check.  Let's see you go 8 and out the first time.
This one is going to knock your ****** in the dirt.

Each draw back must come back 4', 4 diamonds and stop in the 2 diamond
area of the kitchen box.  Once you do this, run 8 and out, make the
next one easier, move the string of balls up towards you one diamond,
Don't line them up on diamond 2 but now on diamond 3 and shoot down 3
diamonds and draw back up 3.  The diamonds are marked 1-8, Diamond one
is the first diamond up from pocket A.  Diamond 4 is the side pocket.
The break line is diamond 6.

Next, line the 8 balls up on diamond 4, the side pockets, shoot down 2
diamonds and draw back up 2 diamonds.  Next line them up on diamond 5,
one diamond above the sides and shoot down one diamond and draw back
up one diamond.  If you are an intermediate with a weak draw, you
begin here, shoot one dia down, come back up one and then only
lengthen the drill once you master and do the first one perfectly.
The advanced level player should begin doing the 4 dia down and 4 back
up.

If you want speed control on your draw, here it is.  It does not come
easy, its comes from hundreds of long hours running this drill burning
it into your muscle memory.
Be prepared to put in months of hard work but then the pay off is
moving up one level in your play.

THE WEI POOL TABLE, HOW TO OPEN AND VIEW IT.

The following code below makes no sense and is a bunch of gobble gook
numbers and letters but they will open up the shot and display it for
you to view.  If you do open the code you will see on of my favorite
show shots where I make 5 balls in one stroke a shot I invented.  The
shot takes a lot of skill to pull off.
We need to do a little work to make this table viewing or drawing of
shots now happen.  This may seem complicated but once you do this
once, the 2nd time is easy.  Just left click on the corner at the
bottom right of the last word of the code words below and then pull
the mouse cursor up the left side to the top , blue it all in, then
right click and hit copy when the box drops.  You do not do that on
the code below, this is an example of what it looks like.  You blue in
and copy the code you see posted on the forum you are reading.  You
then have to dump that code into the wei table you must now produce,
read on.  ACTUNG, WHEN YOU COPY THE BELOW CODE, DO NOT COPY THE LAST
LINE THAT SAYS END, BEGIN YOUR COPY ON THE LINE ABOVE IT ON THE FAR
RIGHT HAND SIDE ON THE LETTERS AND CODES.

To see the 5 in 3 Fast Eddy's Easy Action trick shot you must first
acquire and display the wei pool table.
Put your mouse cursor arrow over and on the underlined link on the
next line down for the table to appear.  
http://endeavor.med.nyu.edu/~wei/pool/preset/8ball.html
Left click it twice fast.  If the http above does not display an
underline it will not open and you will have to copy it and put it in
your internet explorer and hit enter for the table to appear.

If it is underlined and does not open, then hold down ctrl at the
bottom left of your key board and left click on your mouse and then it
will appear.  Before you do that write down the instructions in the
paragraph below as they are going to vanish once you click the link on
the wei table?  Print out a hard copy of this and tape it by your cpu
monitor.

When you see the pool table with 15 balls in a rack that is not the
shot.  You now have the table up and you can remove the rack of balls
and view the shot the author is sending you.  At the bottom right
click the green paste tab that is just below the red tab.  You will
get a box that drops over the table, left click OK, once or twice if
the box comes back and the shot then appears.  Left click the red X in
the top right corner to remove the box and see the shot if the box
does not go away on its own.    See, it was not that hard and being
able to see and understand the shot is worth the work to reveal it.
Fast Loves ya, have fun with the shot.

If you want to draw and compose a shot to send to me you take your
mouse and put your cursor arrow over the ball and or balls you want to
place and drag and drop them where you want them.  The un used balls
drag and drop in a pocket.  Go to the cue ball and move the black dot
to show where the cue tip hits the ball.

There are several colored arrows below the bottom right of the table.
Grab the bottom of the arrow and place on the cue ball, now grab and
drop the top arrow on the object ball.  Don't use the yellow ones
unless drawing a masse shot and you want to draw a curve.  With a
little practice and skill you will be designing shots in no time.
