That was my initial measurement! I had also originally thought the distance behind the target was on the end diamonds, but over lots of testing it was not consistent enough from a full span of trajectories. Testing with a ball as the gap and was just slightly off. If you put a ball on top of the rail, at least on my table, the ball is about 1/8-1/4 inch longer. This actually matters. The rail seam is the most accurate distance I have tested. Visually speaking, the gap should be "slightly less" than a ball width.
Yes. I cover that in the video on Principle 1. Measure from the butt of the cue to 3.3 diamonds. That is the point that should be flush against the rail nose for this routine.
I can tell you've put a lot into developing this system. I appreciate your genius! Well done.
Thanks! Let me know if it works for you and any adjustment you need to make.
This is so great! Thank you so much
You're welcome! Glad you like it.
I'm curious if your distance to the rail seam is the same distance as the diameter of the object ball. Is it close enough?

It seems cue length would be a factor here.
