Buddy Hall - Practice Question

D
I believe I read awhile back that years ago, down around Shreveport, Buddy Hall practiced one shot all day long at a pool hall. One shot. The same shot. All day long. For hours and hours.

Thoughts on this posters?

There are thousands of shots that are possible on a pool table. Unless it was a fairly routine shot it could have been a shot he would rarely see. However, this does sound like it could be somewhat helpful. As soon as I get over this winter time illness I might start a routine like this.

There are times when I have felt that way with regards to Chris Melling as well. A few of these cats just seem to have a minds-eye with 20/10 vision.

Agreed, Melling's vision at the table is mind-blowing. Like Efren, he sees some things that almost nobody else sees. For me, personally, the three most imaginative players I have ever watched are Reyes, Varner and Pagulayan, but Melling is not far behind them.

What's your favorite pool memory from 2025?

This is a sad thing isn’t it? It’s somewhat similar where I play now, although there is a small group of old school players that still gamble as we always did and bet it up pretty good with each other as we all always liked to bet high.

One in our circle loves to chide the top 2 or 3 players there of the younger generations who have the skills to gamble but seldom do, and generally only play cheap, and amongst themselves. The best of them challenged one of our group once and got skinned alive, so they avoid us now.

This definitely strikes a chord with me. Just nobody much gambling anymore. I’m in southern ky too. Most folks now don’t even know what a ring game is. Very sad.

Hoping this Q-loc joint on this break shaft will fit my BK3

It will fit the Uniloc joint just fine. The only "issue" is that if your BK3 is the same joint collar diameter as my BK2, the shaft will be just slightly larger in joint diameter (~21.38mm vs. ~21.52mm on my equipment). At least in my case, there is a barely perceptible lip. I can only speak for myself, but it doesn't hamper breaking in any way.
