    Jacoby Hybrid Shafts

    Mark Finkelstein recommended the Jacoby Hybrid shaft to me and let me try it out. I purchased one the next day and never looked back. I love this shaft. I purchased a Predator P3 Revo last year to try out the Revo shaft, but I found myself playing with my Jacoby shaft so much more that I sold...

    What Does Your Pool Hall Playlist Consist Of?

    Those are all great bands! I'm still not feeling the Kid Rock though, but to each his own. I did have someone try to shark me during a tournament about six months ago by playing "Goodbye Horses" during the final set.

    What Does Your Pool Hall Playlist Consist Of?

    What songs put you in the zone? If I walk into a pool hall and hear "Wheel in the Sky" by Journey or "Sundown" by Gordon Lightfoot, I feel right at home. What songs, other than the obvious, "Werewolves Of London" motivate you to play your best?

    Who made the first jump shot ? Cue ?

    Anyone have video of jumpin Sammy Jones playing in the Jones Zone other than that Trick Shots VHS from the 80's? The only videos I see online are of Sammy sitting in the crowd during the 80's U.S. 9 Ball Championships and the 90's when Loree Jon is playing.
