  • Angle Detective by CueAndMe

    After 11 years, it’s finally here! I call it The Angle Detective System. It is a collection of many methods, each of which can be a powerful on its own to help your game. I decided to make it donation-based so that everyone can learn it without any catch. There is a lot already there, but I recognize that I am just one person with one perspective. I welcome and look forward to input from the cue sport community to help improve the system and keep it growing. Here's a link to the CueAndMe website:

    Please help me to spread the word. Share it with anyone that you think would benefit. I’m not sure how to best get this out to people. If you have any advice for me, I’m all ears.

    And share your thoughts and questions. If you see anything confusing in the instruction, please let me know. It can get technical at times, and I want to make sure that everything is easily understood. Your input can help me to reword or re-illustrate any confusing sections.

    About Angle Detective

    The Angle Detective system is not arrogant. It does not rain on others’ parades. It does not displace or disprove other teaching methods. It recognizes that there is room for all and that the more tools we can add to our toolkit, the better. It plays well with other methods.

    Although it can be used as a primary method, it can also be used as a secondary method to double check your work. Or it can be used as a preliminary method to hone in on a very narrow range of shot selections before applying your primary method. Or simply use the printable table marking tool for precision practice.

    So what does it do?

    • It drastically improves shot angle recognition through novel methods.

    • It labels, organizes and categorizes shot angles and aims for easy handling.

    • Its labeling method opens up lines of discussion, allowing us to refer to any shot angle from 0? to 90? without having to mention a degree measurement or even a number.

    • It offers brand new ways to see and measure banks/doubles, caroms/cannons and combinations/plants.

    • It shows us how to adjust for different cue ball to object ball proximity.

    • It precisely measures cue ball post-collision paths.

    • It shows us where the center of a pocket really is. Is it where you think it is?

    • It teaches an odd but helpful new use for a simple cube of chalk.

    • It presents brand new printable tools for reference, measurement and precision practice.

    • If you don't already love geometry you will, because the geometry it teaches makes you a better player.

    • It teaches how we can practice shot recognition no matter where we are—in a waiting room, in the shower, on a bus, or just staring at a brick wall.

    • It makes spectating of a pool or snooker match more active and enjoyable, because it turns it into a practice session.

    • It unveils geometric references that had always been right there in front of us on the pool or snooker table that can be helpful during play.

    • It shows us how to turn our hands into reference tools.

    • It gives us a new way to measure the range of shots available for pocket cheating and obstruction avoidance.

    • It offers brand new practice drills and practice games.

    • And much much more!

    Being so new and radical, I think there’s at least one new thing that every player at every level can take away from it. At least that’s my hope.


    Thank you, and enjoy!

    A reader pointed out an error on the "Angle Detective Geometry" page of the Theory section. The 'F' rectangle was showing 5/8, but I have since corrected it to 6/8 or 3/4. I just wanted to post this in case anyone else was confused.
