I think Archer has fallen off steeper than any of his top piers. It seems Strickland, Busty, and Efren, could still bring it super strong when they were Archer's age. He's like a shortstop now. IDK how that happened.

I was watching him shoot a stroke shot on social media recently and he definitely doesn't get down over the shot like he used to. It's expected given his age I guess. Having watching the FL Open this week, the prime guys in their 20-30s look so solid fundamentally when they get down.

Predator 12.9 shaft $280 shipped with radial pin insert

M
This shaft is about four months old. It has a new triangle tip and clear pad underneath. I want to be completely upfront. I got the picture as close as I could the local Cue Smith did slightly catch part of the shaft under the ferrule with the blade on his lathe. No cracks, just a dent right under the ferrule. does not affect play or the stroking area. $280 shipped PayPal F&F or do goods and services and u pay the fees.

Buddy was Born in 1945; if he won 1991, He was '46'!

"Buddy" Hall (May 29, 1945 – May 22, 2025) was an American professional pool player. International Pool Tour described Hall as a "living pool legend".

You're both correct and thanks for pointing out my mistake. He was 53 when he won his second in 1998 (not 1991).

Jump shots and worn felt.

It's not felt, technically.

After having been to the Simonis factory in Belgium, it became necessary to understand the distinction between felt, which is usually made of compressed, treated rabbit fur, that is used in casino gaming tables and wool cloth, which is used on snooker, billiard and pool tables.
We should all recognize the difference.

A lot has been mentioned about Shane's performance and win at the age of 43. Keep in mind that Buddy won the US Open at 53 (1991) and Mike Lebron was the oldest at 54 (1988). Clearly a much deeper field today than in those days, but I think Shane is looking to get his sixth and I'll certainly be rooting for him.
