I have joined forces with Illuminated Cuing Arts (ICA). Robin Dreyer is a content provider for the system and is one of of the best instructors in the country. ICA makes and sells a system that is perfect for practicing. An overhead projector shines lights down on the table showing the exact location of the balls, position routes, cut angles, target zones, and more. I have thought of doing this forever, and thankfully they have. Parts of 3 of my books have been converted into 4 modules. You can think of their system as your smartphone and the modules as apps.
CAPELLE’S ICA PRACTICE MODULES
|
CAPELLE’S PRACTICING POOL
MODULE This module contains over 130 exercises taken from my book, Capelle’s Practicing Pool. The module, which is intended to accompany the book, helps you quickly and accurately set up each position. The module can work fine for many of the exercises, but for some you really should use the book and the module together.

POSITION ROUTES
The name of each runout is followed by its difficulty rating. C is routine, B is above average, and A is super challenging. Many diagrams have more than one shot, so on these you will find multiple ratings. The page on which it can be found in my book, Play Your Best 9 & 10 Ball, comes last. RR stands for Recovery Route – these are typically routes you end up playing when you miss shape. To view the ICA system and to order this module, go to: https://www.icatraining.com/ |

MODULE:
CLOSING RUNOUTS & BIG FIRST SHOTS DERBY CITY CLASSIC and MAKE IT HAPPEN ALL-STARS EXPLANATION OF THE TABLE AND THE ICA PRACTICE LIGHTS The name of each runout is followed by the page on which it can be found in my book, Play Your Best 9 & 10 Ball. The BFS on some of the patterns stands for Big First Shot. These are challenging opening shots that you must often make to kickstart a runout. The shots are meant to be practiced one at a time. The Black Cue Ball runouts feature a Black Cue Ball on the diagram in the book. The Black Cue Ball on ICA’s lighted table includes an arrow that points towards the first ball of the runout. Each runout is rated for its overall difficulty. C is routine, B is above average, and A is super challenging. The numbers of the balls to be played in the run come after its rating.

BREAK SHOT PATTERNS
MODULE:
110 CLOSING PATTERNS
The module includes all 110 closing patterns from my book, Break Shot Patterns. You can quickly set up every pattern, then play the four shots leading up to the break ball. This is perfect for learning to close racks like a pro. The module is intended to be used along with the book and DVD., but you could use it independently as well. The runouts also give you good practice for closing out games of 8-Ball.
