the smoking deal eliminates me as a customer, JUST cannot take the second hand smoke.

I'm using a jacoby hybrid shaft on my jacoby cue with tiger sniper tips.The sniper tip is a soft tip which gives a good feel for the cue ball action. that is for nine ball or eight ball. I use a kamuai medium black tip for bank pool. I've been playing pool since 1956 when I was twelve years...

USING inside English causes a lot of shots to be missed. I would try to double the corner on the left and come back down table for shape.

I'm left eye dominant, right handed, However i picked up a cue when i was 12 years old and began playing pool left handed, now many years later still playing left handed. I can switch and shoot simple shots right handed but don't feel really comfortable with my right hand. There are a few of...

I've made money betting on both of them. I will stake Sky in banks, I don't think Justin has an edge playing 9 ball, specially on the bar box.

Glen Hancock, reputed nbr. 1 pool table mechanic in the country told me to use a shop vac, and vac the table after use, been a couple of years now, and table is clean and like new, use a brush type attachment. WORKS great for me.

I met Dave Jacoby at DCC about 3 years ago, been playing with Jacobys ever since. Began with a low end cue to see how i liked it, and ended up with an ebony/ivory high end cue, have 2 jacobys, both have the hybrid shafts.

I've played with 13 mm tips for years, but find i do draw the cue ball better with a 12.5 tip, which is the size i see most pros playing with.

MY PRO cut diamond is 4.5 inches same as a new diamond. Much tighter than that and you hang up a bunch of balls.

I play with a Jacoby hybrid shaft playing 9 ball or 8 ball. Karen Corr plays with the same shaft. She plays very well with it. i do prefer a plain maple shaft for playing bank pool, i tend to over cut the thin cut banks.

I have a diamond professional 9 footer with simonis cloth, pro cut 4.5 inch pockets, recently up graded to new diamond specs. by Glen Hancock, 1 of the top pool table mechanics in the country. I try to play daily, skill level 7 in apa league, began playing at age 12 in 1956. Still a threat...

sky woodward is supposed to playing in the us open, did not see his name.

What the score on the second day? Got to sweat my bet. :)

low will make a bank shot take a whole lot more english, John is correct in his post for sure. If you won't to throw a lot of english on a bank shot cue it low. There are some that will argue that i am wrong, but i am convinced i am right with over 50 years experience banking balls.

My game has improved a lot in the last year, i practice daily, exercise 5 days a week, and imagine my self in dead stroke when i walk in to the pool room. I find myself in stroke a lot more these days.
