The Principles of Pool

Have you ever heard of the 90° Rule of pool? the 30° rule? Have you ever seen a rail cut shot in super slow-motion? All this and more is featured in “The Illustrated Principles of Pool and Billiards,” a great web resource (also available as book and DVD) for pool players of any skill level. Developed by Dr. David G. Alciatore (Dr. Dave), a mechanical engineering professor at Colorado State University, the site has a number of high speed videos and accompanying articles detailing the physics of pool. Most of the articles are very easy to understand. Cool stuff!

Visit the “The Illustrated Principles of Pool and Billiards” when you get a chance! Enjoy!
