using last stroke english with predator versus non ld custome cue
hello,
i have found that when using last stroke english with predator i overcut balls more so as oppose to custom non ld cue...that said i aim my ferulle at the ob to the ghost ball point on ob with ferulle on center axis of cb and than set-pause-release with last stroke english, kind of english doesnt matter and with my barnhart non ld cue i typically drain balls. if i take same shot with pred ikon 9 using same method of aiming and last stroke english i over cut more shots than with barnhart...i can alleviate this by aiming fuller on ob with predator with makes sense to me but it isnt consistant, ie...the angle of shot and speed of cb really matters and sometimes with the custom non ld it changes with the angle changes. i try to always account for speed of cb to ob in that i want the cb to get to ob and release at point of contact. i am just curious if there is a way i can account for this so i use this method without making adjustments cause if not i should go back to aiming the way i use to...that said my game has really jumped using last stroke english through center axis/and aiming this way...usually very consistant but as i said i think with angle changes i have to either adjust aim to account for deflection or adjust cb speed???? ty for any help
james
