    Hayden Pool Tables

    Has anyone played or seen a Hayden Pool Table. I've found a beautiful looking one (pictures) but know nothing about them. Someone said they thought made in New Zealand but I couldn't find any thing about them.

    Butt "Thickener"

    Does anyone know where I can get something to enlarge the thickness of the cue butt? It seems as though I saw some slipovers years ago but don't have any idea of where that was or who had them. Hope you have a better memory! emaleman@comcast.net

    german instructor

    Could someone give me the Title or the Name of the Pool System or the German Instructor and some way to contact them? I believe it's the See (???) method or something similar. Thank you for your help.

    What is the one weak point in your pool game?

    Drawing/scooping the shot. Lately I've been jumping the c-ball over the o-b constantly. I have had very little problems with that in the past but I started practicing distance draws and started the jumping and now I can't correct it. It doesn't seem to matter if it is an easy stroke or a hard...

    TAR Podcast #8 - Shane - Fransisco - Shane Talks About His Aiming Method

    Shane's System - All Systems Doesn't Shane's system reflect the GB aiming? Lets face it if you're going to make that shot then the end result is that your stick has to end up aiming like his does or the GB does or it won't go. It seems to me that we're discussing THE APPROACH to the shots as...

    Player Age POLL

    I'm Like a Fine Wine... Well, on April 10th I will be 77 years old and I think I can beat any spindly legged, snuff using, diaper wearing, pool playing S.O.B. over 76. If you have any doubts about this statement then sneak those story telling, farting, whiny old guys out of the "rest" homes and...

    Lee Brett's Lessons

    I was fortunate to take two lessons from Lee and it certainly opened my eyes to a much better way of approaching, planning and finishing the shot than I had been doing. He has a simple way of telling and illustrating answers to some complex (for me) questions that I had. In fact, he started...

    Perfect Aim....Free Phone lessons..........

    Eye Doctor This is about Geno, The Eye Doctor. I talked to Geno about 10 days ago, practiced for one night and one morning and then got caught up in several things that took me away from the game. That first night I noticed that I saw the ball better. My eyes automatically settled on the shot...

    Toledo Joe Review?

    Does anyone have any information on Toledo Joe's One Pocket CD's? Something new or helpful? Also, I tried to place an order but the site said I had to agree with "no returns" and it wouldn't let me back to clear it up.:embarrassed2:

    Cross Corner Banks

    Could one of you Players pm me or post here on rule of thumb cross corner banks as used in One Pocket? When I make/hang them they seem so easy but invariably they end up short or long and sometimes difficult to move in the next inning. If Grady's CD's give good pointers and any of you want to...

    Pro One

    Pro-One Perplexities. Well, I've gone over this 3 times and tried to do it step by step and it just won't work for me. When I see so many of you saying you're making ALL shots the same day you receive the DVD and after my initial work I'm just lost. I don't care how I move my eyes or my head...

    Center to where...Pro what..

    Pro-what? I'm having trouble with the video. One place near the beginning of chapter 4 it has pictures of the right pivot on the left side of the CB middle and the left pivot on the right side and then a few minutes later when he is illustrating a very slight cut to the center pocket the...

    Thinking of acquiring a 60" cue and have questions.

    60" I've got a 60" cue that I traded from Jay Helfert about 2-3 years ago. He said it resembled a Gilbert Cue and it's mostly plain but is in perfect, new feeling condition. While I was waiting for his Cue I got a great deal on another Cue and other than hitting his a dozen or so practice...
