    Anyone watched Dr Dave & Bob Jewet 9 & 10 ball series?

    VENT (I believe Video Encyclopedia of 9 & 10 ball), is now on YouTube. It appears to be absolutely comprehensive. Wow. If it is what it appears to be, this is by far the most comprehensive undertaking about pool genre. Only thing missing is rotation. But, that would probably take as much time as...

    Bob Meucci Lectures Us!

    Butt diameter on hit?

    How does the butt diameter effect the hit on a cue? I have a McDermott (1994 model, i think). It looks like one of their old McD tournament's winner cues. It has a wider diameter than most cues (not as wide as a bar cue though) and I keep going back to this cue after I've tried others. Also...
