    @colomblanco you don’t have to answer shit for me and I don’t need your luck. don’t pretend like right hand spin is a clear term. as far as I’m concerned, if the face of the ball is moving to the right then the ball has right spin. This guy made enough dumbass statements that you don’t have to make one up. If you and I discuss pool the only thing that should come out of your mouth is questions. And I’m in California if you wanna get eaten Fish.

    @runoutman Jesus Christ! Forget about the clock… go hit a ball with right english into a rail. Then, with your hand, put right-hand spin on the ball and toss it into the same rail and see for yourself if it’s the same.

    I’m afraid I won’t be able to answer anymore going forward. You’re on your own. Good luck!

    @colomblanco clockwise is not the same as spinning to the right. from 3 to 9 the hour hand moves to the left. that’s why they came up with the word clockwise which is more specific..

    @runoutman I don’t think you understood what I wrote. I don’t know how I can make it more simple. If you look at a clock, the hands spin to the right, like clockwise.

    If you hit right english on a ball it spins counterclockwise, in other words, left hand spin.

    @colomblanco if you hit straight into a cushion with low right it’ll still go to the right when it leaves the cushion. when you hit a ball with right english it has right spin on it. it’s a complicated game but it makes sense.

    @runoutman Dude, go hit a ball with right english and look at which way it spins. It spins to the left. That’s why when you hit the the rail in front of you it causes the ball to come off to the right. If you hit draw with right english, it will draw it back into the rail it will spin off to the left. Just think about it for a second.

    @colomblanco dude you are more confused than this guy by A LOT

  10. colomblanco on October 24, 2010 at 4:00 pm

    @runoutman Yeah, and he even has his information wrong. Right-hand english doesn’t put right-hand spin on the ball, right-hand english puts left-hand spin on the ball.
