So today I had the good fortune of spending some time with with my friend, Paul Drexler, inside his workshop at PFD Studios. I've known Paul since either the very late 80's or the very early 90's (I forget which). Today I picked up a duplicate of The Jedi Cue that Paul made for me back in...

After much consideration, I'm probably going to send the cue back to Amazon for a refund. Thank goodness for those generous Amazon return windows!

So I had chance to play a little bit with the cue. These opinions are my own, YMMV. Best part about the cue is the looks. No decals. Real inlays and ring work. How much per unit cost did they save by putting in a 3/8 screw over a Uni-loc/quick release joint? I wish they went with a...

I just unboxed a new Konllen Carbon Fiber Pool Cue, #07-AK75-001in Red. The cue is selling for $699.00 everyplace else, but on Amazon it's only $399. The stick seems like it's high quality. I'll post a review once I've had a chance to horse around with it. I'm way too cheap to pass up a...

Hi Gang, Does anyone know of any weekly tournaments or leagues in CT? T H A N K S ! -Z-

So I have a cataract and as part of the corrective process, I will have my eye's lens replaced. There's are basically 3 lens types to choose from, each at different price points. Has anyone out there had this done and with Pool as a consideration, what type of lens did you choose? THANKS...

So I need Cataract corrective surgery. For anyone who doesn't know...they surgically (via laser) get rid of your eye's clouded lens and replace it with an artificial lens. Like everything else in life there are different tiers of replacement lenses. The first is basic, no frills. The 2nd &...

THE HUSTLER: Bert: I don't think there's a pool player alive shoots better pool than I saw you shoot the other night at Ames. You got talent. Eddie: So I got talent. So what beat me? Bert: Character Eddie: (laughs) Yeah. Sure, sure. Bert: You're damned right I'm sure. Everybody's got...

Did the old school, original, Royce era OB cues come standard with Uni-Loc joints (or am I just imagining they did)? I'm trying to find a buddy of mine a great "starter" cue, but boy has the Covid supply chain issues hit the pool cue industry hard. I can't find anything decent for a decent...

For all of my fellow Barbara Eden fans, here's the full picture.

This is a Pool table most people 45 and older have seen on TV, back when Color TV was new and most markets only had 7 channels. Can you identify the program & setting? BONUS: Can anyone identify the Pool table brand & model? Hope this brought back some cool memories. -Z-

Bored while waiting for something recently, I desperately downloaded the 1st Pool app I could find to my phone. It was called "Shooting Ball". It took a while to figure out all it's features, but I found it fun. It allows for specific aim, stroke speed/force as well as cue tip placement on the...

I absolutely LOVE Sharivari on Youtube, Unlike so many Pool Youtubers, he speaks simply, gets to the point, has great production. He includes lessons on subject matter that I find extremely important & interesting. He breaks down important educational info in a simple, easy to understand...
