Whatever it is they do, I don't like how they play. The shots feel dampened down. They play differently than Aramith which has become the standard.

I am not fond of these balls. They absorb energy more so than transferring it.

Thank you. I have become a Elkmaster Dud that I make myself guy. I have some good Elks now that aren't Duds. The guy I play a lot used to use a Zan tip that they no longer make. If you like this, then he might and I will get a few and try it on something. It sounds like they've perfected their...

Lou, Do you have a link to where you get them and do they have a Medium?

I learned to fix mine on the shaft. Its easy and it works.

Excellent find @Good Sam !

Here is one. Steve Mizerak vs. Earl Strickland 1992 There is a push in the 2nd game.

It looks like the content for the old 9-ball is almost non-existent. The 9-ball portion of the video posted by Greg Cantrell above starts at 2:02 the first game no push occurred or no scratch on the break. Maybe later in the match we will see that. Steve Mizerak is involved maybe some of...

I grew up playing 9-ball by the old rules but played mostly 8-ball for a long time, then the rules had changed when I was exposed to Pool Leagues. Does anyone know of any video content of Pool matches played under the old rules? If so please post links.

I was using the old Jacoby Hybrids bought 2nd hand. The best playing shaft I had was one that was turned down a little and had a little flex in it. I think that shaft with just a little more flex would have been perfect, but I went back to the regular maple. I intend on doing a little back and...

I don't even have a joint. I'm playing with basically a stick (solid piece of wood) worked down into the shape of a cue with a 3/8 x 10 pin. It looks horrific but plays awesome. My shaft is from another cue (SouthEast) that has a reddish-brown phenolic with a brass ring. It plays great. Best...

Im sure people that are league players sometimes gamble, but in my opinion that is mostly not so. I think Pool is growing but not in the direction of anything to do with gambling, but I'm sure some gamble small at times, but probably not many times. I don't think leagues could tell their...

If you do it enough, you'll find perfection.

Thank for reaching out, but I'm short and a 30 in shaft doesn't work so well for my short arms. I know that doesn't make a lot of sense to people, but I can't play right with an extension either I have tried. I just go for the bridge.

I'm interested in regular wood shafts that are already 3/8 x 10. Pm me the details of the shaft if you are interested in selling.
