    Jayson Shaw’s 832 World Record is Official

    I bought the unlimited access version of the Shaw 832 video and started watching it. Truly amazing how quickly he decides which ball to shoot next and pulls the trigger. He sure doesn’t linger over any shot. Steps in and shoots it. Wow.

    It has been over 13 yrs. Glad to be back

    I “got” retired in April 2019 because of the downturn of COVID. No matter, I was going to retire in December of that year anyway. I have owned a table for years but I never really learned the game properly until I moved and retired. Retirement is frigging awesome! I turn 70 in November and...

    Pool Table Color Change - Wish It Wasn’t So……

    I am surprised that this discussion has focused on cloth color and no one commented on @Bavafongoul lobbying for 4” pockets in a public pool room. The average league player would hate shooting on 4” pockets. The casual player probably would play once and not try that table again. One 9’ table...

    APA 9 Ball Races

    @oscargrouch said it above: you're getting hung up on the fact that APA 9-ball is called "9-ball". In APA 9-ball, you don't "win" racks by sinking the 9. It only affords you 2 points and the break on the next rack. Stop thinking of APA 9-ball as your preconceived notion of what 9-ball is all...

    green taom chalk on blue 860hr cloth

    I have been using Taom V10 for almost two years. No issues whatsoever with its green color showing on my not green cloth. V10 is extremely clean and unobtrusive.

    Aiming B.S.

    I just read through this entire thread. I will be honest: I can't understand the gentleness of the responses so I will also try to be easy on the OP while calling "BS" in turn on the OP. My first gut reaction was "You gotta be kidding me. This is either a troll post or the OP is so out of...

    What do you think would happen if there were no handicaps, in any leagues or tournaments, and all tournaments were Open to all skill levels?

    This last session I played a TAP 8, FR650. At the time I was a 6, with a fairly outdated FR430 (I think I am playing around 480 or so now.) so 6-8 race. It sucked getting beaten 1-8 with my only rack win coming when 650 scratched on the 8. I learned little except how much I knew I was...

    Yup. Our Kit, turned 7 yesterday, was gold as a pup. Easy, easy, easy. Got him at 8 weeks. Peed one time, EVER, in the house. Super compliant, sweet. We got his biological brother two years later at 17 weeks. (BROdy. Bro, get it?😁) We thought we had made the biggest mistake. Undisciplined...

    How many Border Collies does it take to change a lightbulb? We don’t know. They’re still rewiring the house.
