Would it be possible to have a new type of practice where you can put down a red and white where-ever you like on the table, and be able to practice on a certain type of shot you may not be paricularly good at, i think it would be good for all types of players, good and bad, because good players can tighten up there games and bad players can practice on all the type of shots they may want to.

It could bring the standerd higher because you would have more players that are capable of being able to pot balls from anywhere and everywhere..

What do you guys think?

Been mentioned hundreds of times on here, and on pool over the years (that makes me sound like an old timer! )

Been a lot of positive replies to it as well, but never been implemented, but I would love to have it

i do like the idea.

a better one for you those who have played isnooker will know what i mean.

on isnooker not only can you place the balls anywhere but you can leave the balls in random places with a single click.

not sure if isnooker is 2D or 3D, been too long but if isnooker is 2D then this may be possible, if its 3D then i am not too sure.

The system is already in place to randomise the positions (slightly) of the balls in the pack every frame so must be possible to put them randomly across the table. And the ability to place a ball anywhere on the table already exists in killer with ball in hand, so must also be possible to do...

I think... haha.

Would be awesome to bring in, I would love it for carom especially.

One other similar thing, when you use a different type of setup in practice, eg balls in a line, when you do rerack it should rerack on they type you are playing instead of going back to the normal one. Then clicking again keeps cycling through.

Only trouble is we would all be potting balls we have no right to take on.. we'll all master the tight off the cushion double kiss down the rail.

hughsy would master the straight pot.

Worst of all I might actually get good ar carom.....

THE HORROR!
