Chalk gate at the open !!!!

Jump sticks should be allowable. I mean for years in golf playing a stymie helped you win the hole in match play
unless your opponent spun or jumped over your ball that had to be at least 6” distant from the opposing ball or the obstructing ball had to be lifted and marked. A lot of greens got messed up from playing a wedge on a green to jump
over an opponent’s ball. In tournaments, the cloth will get burned from jump shots but it’s inconsequential to the match’s outcome. If you had to jump a ball in golf, why not pool? I’ve played lot of 3 cushion so I don’t ever play a jump shot.

I like the central location. It can be like an 8 or 10 hour drive from so many parts of the country.

It's also reasonably priced. I looked yesterday at driving down and could get a room at the Embassy Suites for $150 a night.

Now, accessing the website to try to buy a ticket to the tournament itself didn't really work out. Kept getting errors and wouldn't allow me to buy any tickets LOL

WNT tables

So I was caught very off guard in the Arizona open with the way the tables played and there was limited practice available and not enough to really get adjusted to how different they played. I declared that I would never be that caught off guard again so I immediately started making a duplicate of the WNT tables. Now I didn't go out and buy a diamond pro 9 foot as I already have a Gold crown 3. So what I did was order the WNT dynasphere ball set and extended the rail beds (which I've intended to do ever since I switched from my old 4" pocketed table to the gold crown that my best friend gave me with standard cut pockets) and bought the CPBA cloth that they use.

Well here it is a week and a half later and I did it. I duplicated the table. Atleast it plays exactly like the WNT tables did at Yuma. I pulled the cloth super tight.

Any videos? All this prep, and you’re not gonna let us see how you play the ghost on this table? 😂

Rdiculous.

Agreed. Moritz only has one bad habit - how he places his chalk.

So you’re a slow player too huh? Look everyone that is a serious player should have a “process”, what others call a PSR. But when players in a game as straightforward as 9 ball have to recheck their shot line, angle on the next ball, etc. 2,3 or 7 times then that’s ridiculous. That kind of over evaluation and analysis is exactly as I stated in my first post, gamesmanship or an individual that doesn’t trust his instincts or training. As some would say, it ain’t rocket science

Feijen is such a nice guy away from the table, but when he's playing, he always looks like he's going to stomp on his opponent's head! One of my all-time favs.

If he knew what he knows about the game now 15-20 years ago, he'd have many more titles than he already does. This could apply to lots of other players, I suppose, but I am not sure I have seen a player's game grow so much between his mid to late 20s to his late 40s.

I think he could be top 5 now even. But he has made it clear that family comes first

Thanks tg_vegas

Ordered a keilwood shaft from tg_vegas a while ago and was thoroughly impressed with his work.
It took longer than expected due to circumstances beyond his control, but he went above and beyond to make it right for me.
Then I sent my original Meucci shaft to him to be turned down and refinished, and again he outdid himself.
His craftsmanship and quality of work is exceptional, he is as friendly as they come, and he goes above and beyond expectations to keep his customers happy.
Don't hesitate to order a shaft from him or have repair/refinish work done.
Ron.
