Maybe OB inserts fail, but the Whyte Carbon inserts are rock solid. They claim that their 3/8 x 10 inserts will accommodate modified as well. I have both Radial and 3/8 x 10 pins and inserts, and none of them have ever come loose, neither the shaft pin nor the insert (knock on wood)

that's a great idea. then get it to netflix or something

i the meantime, consider how big a boost just having fedor on joe's podcast potentially is. joe has around 10x the viewers/listeners than FOX, and 30x what CNN has..

Rogan was just in Chicago playing pool before the UFC fight the 16th.

But, back on topic, light works for me. Lots of great insights shared in this thread! Thanks all.

I'm fine, dont worry.

And Archer used a 20 ounce break cue, certainly you should get him into an argument.

P.s.whats your average break speed?

Understandably. Fedor a favorite at both banks and one pocket. Three DCC Master of the Table awards in four years tells you all you need to know. In recent years, Filler has won far more major titles than Fedor in rotation games.

And if they went to 14.1 as a tiebreaker, i think Filler would have a pretty big advantage

Titanium rod, or even lighter, tubing.

a 5 foot titanium rod would weigh about 2 pounds, if you were wondering.

Just to pull this back to pool, think of what that means in the aiming conversations alone, or deflection, or squirt....and other things that people debate. And some people have a hard time "seeing" what it's about...or maybe they see it better?

How much of what we perceive is real and how much of it is not?

Could it be true that some people that get better faster, and achieve high levels of skill at pool ate better able to manage parsing out the "noise" of fake information that their brain is making up?

Could it be that some more successful training methods incorporate some things that reduce the errors that result from these neurologic quirks?

Ever notice the arguments and debates about things in pool where it seems one person sees something that others do not? Which one is "crazy"?

It's true in every sport, Doc, pool included. I've seen slugs that go at it for years and don't get one iota better in decades. And I've seen examples like Mike Sigel with natural talent that get to be the best in the world in his 20's.

What it comes down to is that all men are not created equally, including women, that is. Some are born with natural qualities that others don't possess. Of course, there's a lot of practice that goes along with it.

Dude, give it a rest...if I said the world was round you'd try to make an argument against that too..everyone except you and possibly some woke lgbtq+ people like a power break with cue ball control and no cut break shit with the cb flying around the table.

Deal with it.

I hope you're ok

I have way too many cues and cases. Ariel Carmeli, Lambros, Pierce...and shafts. OB, Predator, not sure what to do with any of this stuff.

"Too many cues"? I feel bad for you and would like to help.

Unburden yourself of material things and lead an austere life.

I can come buy and pick the stuff up any time you want to give the stuff away.
