International Open 2025

Most of the usual suspects are here.

Ken as ref, Ed as TD, Mark in the booth.
Pat has set up a really nice event and venue and seems intent on making this a good experience for the players and spectators.

So yes, Don Feeney is here at 97 playing, I believe, in the 14.1. I spoke with him yesterday and I think he lives at The Villages and his rec room compatriots paid his entry. He looks great and he still strokes the balls very smoothly.

So what else… the property is nice, good room, Mike Siegel is here and in the booth with Mark. I play at 5. Looking forward to a good time.

Anyone compared Rhino Carbon shaft vs Predator Vantage in terms of CB deflection?

dont forget to post the answer

In terms of deflection, the Rhino (12.4) is a bit better but not by much. Biggest issue with the Rhino for me is the shift on the balance point, with the Rhino shaft which is lighter than the Vantage, the cue felt butt heavy, guessing the Rhino shaft would be a better fit with a lighter cue to move the balance point forward.

Just started watching the 10 ball on ultimate pool.

My problem was the rules they are playing by. You take a player who can hardly play, give them a big spot, Set a time limit, and they're only motive is the stall the game till they can run out the clock with the lead they started with To win. That is utterly ridiculous.

I went back and watched some of it fast forwarding and saw one where the player actually just stood there with his back turned watching the clock till it was time to shoot not even attempting to pocket a ball.
That’s what I’m talking about.

The table size is a discussion of its own.
