Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A billiards aiming device comprising:
 a first aiming spot comprised of:
 a center opening; 
 a first degree ruling; 
 a cut-induced throw correction arc; 
 a first deflection adjustment ring; 
 a rail aiming adjustment line; and 
 an adhesive. 
   
     
     
         2 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 1 , wherein the first aiming spot is connected to a second aiming spot. 
     
     
         3 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 1 , wherein the center opening supports a billiard ball 0.0015 inches or less above a playing surface of a billiards table. 
     
     
         4 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 1 , wherein the first aiming spot is comprised of a second degree ruling spaced at 2.5, 5, or 10 degrees from the first degree ruling. 
     
     
         5 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 1 , wherein the first aiming spot is comprised of a second deflection adjustment ring spaced at 0.05 inches edge-to-edge from the first deflection adjustment ring. 
     
     
         6 . A billiards aiming device comprising:
 a first aiming spot comprised of:
 a center opening; 
 a first degree ruling; 
 a cut-induced throw correction arc; 
 a first deflection adjustment ring; and 
 a rail aiming adjustment line; 
 an adhesive 
   an alignment tool comprised of:
 a ball opening 
 a cutout; 
 a rounded exterior corner; 
 a smooth edge; and 
 an alignment line. 
   
     
     
         7 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 6 , wherein the first aiming spot is connected to a second aiming spot. 
     
     
         8 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 6 , wherein the center opening supports a billiard ball 0.0015 inches or less above a playing surface of a billiards table. 
     
     
         9 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 6 , wherein the first aiming spot is comprised of a second degree ruling spaced at 2.5, 5, or 10 degrees from the first degree ruling. 
     
     
         10 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 6 , wherein the first aiming spot is comprised of a second deflection adjustment ring spaced at 0.05 inches edge-to-edge from the first deflection adjustment ring. 
     
     
         11 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 6 , wherein the center cutout is comprised of a rectangular shape and is positioned in a center of the alignment tool. 
     
     
         12 . The billiards aiming device of  claim 6 , wherein the ball opening supports a billiards ball 0.0045 inches above a playing surface of a billiards table. 
     
     
         13 . A billiards aiming device comprising:
 a top layer comprised of:
 an outer edge; and 
 an alignment hole. 
   a middle layer comprised of:
 an outer edge; 
 a perforation; and 
 an alignment hole. 
   a bottom layer comprised of:
 a perforation; and 
 an alignment hole. 
   a first aiming spot comprised of:
 a center opening; 
 a first degree ruling; 
 a cut-induced throw correction arc; 
 a deflection adjustment ring; and 
 a rail aiming adjustment line; 
 an adhesive 
   an alignment tool comprised of:
 a ball opening; 
 a cutout; 
 a rounded exterior corner; 
 a smooth edge; and 
 an alignment line. 
   
     
     
         1 . The billiards aiming device of claim  13 , wherein the top layer, the bottom layer, or the middle layer is comprised of the first aiming spot or a first aiming spot connected to a second aiming spot. 
     
     
         2 . The billiards aiming device of claim  13 , wherein the center opening supports a billiard ball 0.0015 inches or less above a playing surface of a billiards table. 
     
     
         3 . The billiards aiming device of claim  13 , wherein the first aiming spot is comprised of a second degree ruling spaced at 2.5, 5, or 10 degrees from the first degree ruling. 
     
     
         4 . The billiards aiming device of claim  13 , wherein the first aiming spot is comprised of a second deflection adjustment ring such that the inner edges of the deflection rings are spaced at 0.05 inches edge-to-edge. 
     
     
         5 . The billiards aiming device of claim  13 , wherein the top layer, the bottom layer, or the middle layer may be comprised of an adhesive. 
     
     
         6 . The billiards aiming device of claim  13 , wherein the billiards aiming device is comprised of only the top layer, the bottom layer, the first aiming spot, and the alignment tool. 
     
     
         7 . The billiards aiming device of claim  13 , wherein the center cutout is comprised of a rectangular shape and is positioned in a center of the alignment tool.
