How does Temperature and Humidity affect play on a pool table? I used my humidifier, dehumidifier, air conditioner and heat system to compare a wider range of shots in 4 climates: Hot/Dry, Cold/Dry, Cold/Wet, Hot/Wet.
In video 1, I attempt to determine if a famous 4-rail bank shot by Eddie Taylor is a even possible. Are humid rails the stuff of legends, or scientifically observable?
In video 2, I attempt to determine how environmental conditions affect maximum rail travel, jumps heights, rail induced spin, and putting it all together with a 7-Rail kick shot.
In video 3, I attempt to determine how environmental conditions affect 1, 2, 3 and 4 rail bank shots.
In video 4, I attempt to determine how environmental conditions affect the collision of the cue ball with object ball.
In video 5, I attempt to determine how environmental conditions affect a power 8-Ball break.
