    Another stupid thread from me: golf is harder than pool

    The title of the thread should speak volumes. Btw, rugby is harder than American football. 😂

    Cell phone use while playing pool

    other than that, it is also plainly disrespectful to your opponent, synonymous to saying I don't give a rat's ass about you or you are not worth my time or focusing on unless it's only my turn and only time to shoot. on the otherhand, I like it better compared to someone standing infront of you...

    Cell phone use while playing pool

    I had a diminished vision 2 weeks ago after I've done my licensing exam which lasted 4 hours using my prescription glasses. felt horrible since I went playing a day after and I couldn't even aim at the object balls. returned with a vengeance a few days later. I guess needed time for my eyes to...

    anyone can identify what joint pin this is?

    not familiar with this pin but appears like a Pechaur. but I don't think it is.

    Puzzled about ball scratches.

    just to share my recent experience. I have a new set of Aramith Premiums that I played on a different table and sadly my 4 ball got that same scratch mark which is just a bit deep that you could feel it or get your fingernails sink on it. I believe it was the corner where I powered a shot...

    Is it possible to throw an object ball? Nope

    Well one has to think why people miss on a straight-in shot while perfectly hitting the object ball.

    My TAOM V10 Blue chalk goes to 11..

    I have the green and it is painful to clean. Makes me want to use the typical master chalk.

    Brunswick cues? Dufferin?

    my first cue was a low-end, plastic wrapped decal dufferin. not the best but it was the only one that I was able to afford considering I wasn't paid much back then. it was more of a broom stick to be honest and shoot's meh. it was back when deflection wasn't really much of a conversation back...

    New Dynaspeheres Set

    That money must be reserved for their new cue purchase. Obviously, they are not there to collect balls.

    Tiger tips

    they are more likely marketing rebrand than actually being different. just to make consumers think that they have a better or different quality than the previous tiger tips they have. from looking at it, they renamed them and being promoted by certain pros.

    Playing Pool after 50?

    I must say that I play better now inspite of being medieval age. although my endurance and consistency can use some improvement. for someone who has now health issues, I have to carry with me some candies or food/drinks (not alcoholic beverage) while I'm playing pool for 3-4 hours.

    Do Aramith balls come in a sealed box?

    Mine came in with the same shrinkwrap that you are talking about. Very nice balls and I love how they roll. Although the cue ball got peppered with too much taom chalk.

    Do Aramith balls come in a sealed box?

    I don't think counterfeiting Aramith packaging would still make sense. I believe it is a costly process with negative return on the counterfeiters. I think they would sell more selling their own brand and promoting them to be of quality or similar to aramiths. In short, they are now earning more...

    Do Aramith balls come in a sealed box?

    from my experience, amazon doesn't shrink-wrap products that is no their own advertised product, e.g. something with an Amazon basics is their own brand. Amazon is e-marketplace and not a distributor. As far as returned items go, the ones I have seen are just put on a regular plastic with some...
