    Solid vs layered tips

    I know this subject has been beat to death but here is my personal take on it. I have been using solid tips for many years. Recently I decided to give a layered tip a try.

    Are you excited about BLACK FRIDAY?!

    Screw black Friday. About 15 years ago I stood in line with a lot of people at 5 in the morning in the awful cold just to buy a new TV at a killer price. The doors opened and the mob surged in and it was a nightmare. I did get the TV. Never again.

    Short Rack One Pocket/Single Elimination

    Got this idea about short rack 11 ball from Mike Massey. He said put the 11th ball in line with the head ball. The 11th ball is racked in the back in line with the head ball per the flyer.

    Who is the best player of the last 40 years not to win a major event?

    I'll add Neptune Joe Frady(RIP) from N.J. to your above list. Joe was a real good player that could beat anyone on a given day.

    One Pocket (Grady Rule)

    We play as soon as there are 4 in the kitchen the closest to the rail is spotted. Really speeds up the game and adds a bit of strategy.

    A List of the Greatest Pool Players of All-Time

    I knew Brian and his backer . His backer told me that Brian played the Miz getting the 7 and broke even. I've played pool with Brian and he could play and getting the 7 from the Miz and breaking even tells me the Miz was as good as anyone.

    which are the latest most popular cue tips?

    I can't tell the difference between a layered tip and a solid one other than the big difference in cost. I use solid tips and they work just fine.
