I'm back in Savannah and looking for a one-pocket game. Any suggestions? I googled it and went to one near my hotel and the "pool hall" was a bar with one pitiful Valley BT. Hoping to save some time and aggravation. THanks in advance Hittman jus' ma opinion, you da judge.

Ferrule-less shafts I have found that most ferrules have a cushioning effect. If you like a hard hit and don't mind the sound, you will probably like it...never tried it with a soft or medium tip though. I use it exclusively on my Harpoon (tm) jump cue because it transfers energy so well...

Any news? The one pocket finals should be today or tonight. Thinking about driving over to watch if they are tonight. Thanks in advance Hittman

The perfect conundrum Thanks for that reply...this is the puzzle that seems to be shaping up now... As PUSHOUT so aptly illustrates, almost all players come to the table with their own goals and expectations...so a variety games likely have evolved to satisfy those goals/expectations...but to...

6, 7, 9 or 10 ball Thanks Johnnyt. I knew the first post was too long. When I'm competing I prefer to set-up a widow to control the break position...but that's because my break is generally weak. I don't like it when they place the CB on the side rail and slide the 1B in the side...sometimes...

Hello All, After reading the post on the 3 foul rule, I began a comment and it turned into this...which has irritated me for near 30 years. I apologize for the length in advance but I couldn't seem to make it much shorter and I think it's an important question. I think the real QUESTION #1 in...
