Are these still for sale?

Semi final #2, at the Shanghai Masters.
Wilson vs Zhao. Oh gosh. Wilson a poster boy for Barry Stark and Zhao most likely a student at a university featuring Ronnie o'sullivan teach.
I am looking forward to study of the form and occasionally eye pattern.

Why?

Low right is the shot for 9ball... it puts you into the path of the next ball.

I think the method the dentist uses to detect whether a tooth filling is flush with the opposing teeth could work---whatever the hell they do.

I tried cutting out a piece of softer paper, put hole in middle, placed over tenon, kept in one position, and pressed and moved ferrule over it. I couldn't get much of an impression on the paper, though.

I did something similar using 300 sandpaper placed over tenon and between shaft and ferrule. I rotated shaft against the ferrule and sandpaper held in my hand. That seemed to wear down those parts of shaft edge that rubbed against ferrule. Seemed a little slow. Maybe 200 sandpaper next time.

That's right or nitpick until you're fed up with it.

The players have always known this was outside the rules, and only a few violated those rules, perhaps more than the few of which I was aware, but still not many.

I think what's new about the situation is that it has become a more common practice. Now that pool has started to bring its majors to more and more humid locations (World 9ball, Philippines Open, Hanoi Open, just to name a few), there's every reason to believe that the trend toward greater doctoring of the cue ball would continue if left unchecked.

WPA is saying the right things here, but unless they take enforcement seriously, this is all just hot air. You see this as a scandal and I do not, and I really do not care who may have doctored the cue ball at the recently completed World 9ball.

I see this situation as an opportunity for pool to make itself better and I hope it does not become a missed opportunity.

Do a Google search……compare the two joints for compatibility…..you’ll see that it may not be interchangeable.

I ran into this when I got my Rhino CF shaft.

I went to put it on my Diveney which is 3/18-10 modified. It was SUPER tight. I screwed it onto my McDermott which is standard 3/8-10 and it fit perfectly.

Much to my surprise I tried it again on my Diveney and it fit perfectly. Sometimes there's not much difference and basically chasing the threads can make it fit.

I would assume if I were to have just screwed and unscrewed it on the Diveney a few dozen times it probably would have fit after the internal threads were polished/worn a bit.

One more thing, due to the close proximity to the cushion, the shot is very sensitive to the degree of lateral spin. Horizontal draw as Island Drive puts it.
