    8-ball as a rotation game

    I find the actual cribbage billiards game quite entertaining, especially with scotch doubles teams going, the goal being pairs of balls that add to 15, in a race to 5 points, the 15 ball only counts at the end, and may need to be shot twice if one side got to 4 but didn't close out.. Find it in...

    Current State/Cost of Salotto

    Mostly correct, submitting to Fargo does have its own fee structure per match dependent on the race length. As well, both players need to be registered with Fargo and have linked their Fargo account to the app before being able to join a rated Salotto match. So for people looking to establish a...

    Center 3 inch extensions /Radial pin

    Jacoby makes a 4in extension if that's not too long for you, I use a 6in model of theirs for one of my cue setups

    Saratoga Rules

    No need for the special set of balls, just drop the 7/15 out of a regular set and carry on.. The game is fun once in awhile, but I usually play on 9ft tables where I think the game strategy is overpowered. To safe your opponent, you only need to hide them from one particular ball, and it's not...

    Dynaspheres individual cue balls now available for purchase in EUR regions

    Ahh, east side, I live out on Vashon island but could get somewhere close to Bellevue on a weekend. Sometimes I head over to Auburn to socialize so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch from there. PM me when you have supplies and we'll make arrangements. Thanks!

    Dynaspheres individual cue balls now available for purchase in EUR regions

    I'm interested in getting one, if you can make it over to Temple on a Monday night that would be easiest for me, or we could arrange something on the weekend.

    Kielwood shaft the way to go?

    Thanks for the info, a couple weeks ago I put in my order for the Hsunami 2.0 with customized options. My tax return situation turned out better than expected previously and figured it was best to just bite the bullet..

    ALFA LV RACKS

    I love my Delta-13 Select rack, def gives the tightest racks when I don't want to use a template (1p/14.1/etc) The leather inserts make a huge difference, the sound goes from a bright ping to a dull clack and is much less abrasive on delicate ears.

    Kielwood shaft the way to go?

    In another thread (I think around the OB Phoenix?) somebody mentioned getting one at 3.9oz .. I'm looking to stay on the light side, the original shafts for my target cue are in the 3.2oz range.

    Kielwood shaft the way to go?

    try one first is the hard part, if anybody in the greater Seattle area that's reading this has one I'd love to give it a spin .. but from the video review that sound is exactly what I'm after and I'll be getting in touch soon to get a better idea of pricing and such. Not in any rush for this so...

    Rasson vs Diamond Tables

    I was finally able to make it over there a couple weeks back, definitely a quality spot. The tables played nice but I was struggling with getting the feel of the rails, and the side pockets were cavernous, watched 2 balls roll in cleanly side-by-side off the break at one point. Next time I go...

    Kielwood shafts?

    I just picked up a new (to me) cue that I think would pair well with a kielwood shaft of some sort, was looking between the Jacoby KW or the OB Phoenix (being able to specify 30" length being a bonus for the OB), would love to hear first-hand opinions on those in particular, though now I may...

    What is the Best Cue Ball? We have the Red Measles, but let's hear your opinions.

    I keep some Dynaspheres for my travel set of balls, and a Arcos II cue ball with my sticks, and quite fond of the feel/interaction with that cue ball and the rest of the balls. Now that they finally started shipping I have an Aramith Tournament Black cue ball but I've only used it so far with...
