I feel like an unbelievable idiot, but I'm fairly certain the issue is the floor. It's not even remotely level, and placing a pool ball one the floor at foot of the table causes it to roll freely to the head. As an engineer, I should know better. I imagine the problem has been getting worse over...

Could be - It's a Southern Legacy with Backed slate and the frame seems to be well supported. I checked with a couple of professionals before I bought it, and was told it was a good table for the money. I realize it's not a Diamond, but it shouldn't be falling out of line after 2 months. I'm...

Thanks RKC. Hopefully we'll be able to work out a solution.

Just a renter, so unfortunately I have no idea. This is on the bottom floor of a two story house with no basement.

Hi all, Not sure how much advice can be given about this, but I'd appreciate anything I could get. I had a table professionally installed about 6 months ago. My mechanic has some super high end level and sure enough everything rolled right for about 4 months and then I started a getting...

You'll find Danny in Buffalo. I was a regular where he's the house pro at Classic Cue billiards. I was just chatting with him ast week before I moved to Texas.

That was me :)

Hi All, I just moved to Austin, and I'm looking at buying my first table. 9 footers are a bit scarce out here, I haven't found anyone that will move one, and my room is slightly too small 16x18, so I think I'm going to go with a used 8ft off craigslist. I'm looking for someone to do a...

A single incident seems like a good way to judge an entire city. Where did this happen?

Thanks Luke. I'll definitely look up Rod Gustafson. Mr Nobody, I've heard Clicks mentioned quite a bit, I'll definitely check them out too. I'll likely be moving to north austin, near the round rock area. I hear a lot oabout this place called G Cue. Any thoughts on that place?

I'll be moving to Austin, TX at the end of the month, and I'm hoping to find some guidance. I finally got a good job, so I'll be looking to get my first table and also try to improve my game through more formal instruction. there seems to be a lot of pool halls in the area, so any guidance...

That thing is in need of some serious TLC. GLWS.

It's pretty clear I don't understand it correctly so, I don't want to misrepresent what's described - you should probably read it for yourself as you might understand it more clearly. That said, my take-away was that the ideal technique has the foot up to, but not over, the shot line. My usual...

I just requested to join the group - Thanks John! It's a great book - for all the money people spend in pool related ways, this has to be a top value for dollar item. As far as the stance is concerned, I'm used to putting my right foot on the shot line, but the methods taught here are a bit...

First off, Mark & Don did an incredible job with this book. In reading the stance section, I've noticed things about my current stance that inhibit my follow through and am trying to adopt the stance Mark presents. However, I am finding it to be the most difficult thing I've ever done in pool...
