If you get 50% run out you are a B.

Fake news. Carbon fiber shafts have no problems.

Has anyone seen this happen, opponent misses the spot shot to win, and player comes back from 7/-1 to run out? Would the same ball just keep being spotted at the foot spot during the run?

This is very similar to JT's drill, and one that I used to practice way too much. It is fun to see that you enjoy this drill because it was always my first choice. I should warn you though, I really did practice this tooo much. I ended up not doing other important drills and developed a tiny...

In Europe, disco was never not cool. They now produce the best electronic artists in the world…. Americans live in a culture that complains that time is too valuable to be wasted, and then go home to a dirty house and watch TV for 3 hours a day. We have a tremendously toxic relationship with...

Wait till the DigiBall is out. Then you’ll really see if you can hit the ball on center axis!

What is even better is to imagine a second money ball sitting in front of a pocket in a convenient location. Then you end up playing the shot exactly the same as if you were playing for shape on a next ball. Playing to a spot is very similar but may not be exactly the same depending on if you...

I looked at the actual numbers more, and my x10 in 30 years is an outlier, but not that far off... 1400 sqft house that I grew up in in the 80s in CT was bought for $86k, is now ~$330k. x3.7 (40 years) 1800 sqft house that I grew up in the 90s in CT was bought for $160k (sold for $162k in 2000)...

Surge inflation. A lot of people that have been around a while can’t get their head to make sense of 50’s style 1200 sqft ranches costing $500,000 on average, when they were only $50,000 when they purchased 30 years ago.

I’m still mentally drained and I don’t want to start another project yet. But I thought of a unique case that comes up when I am practicing. I have a carom table and play 3C and 1C usually. I should be doing drills with sticker dots, but a lot of times I just play to relax and still learn a lot...

Do you have a model that fits under the cushion instead of on top?

Latest news: Commitments and business decisions have been finalized. We will soon be moving onto the next phase of the project and are getting closer to manufacturing balls for purchase.

I don't heat the garage or the table, and to be completely honest the table only plays about a ball-width-less rolling distance because of it. Add an additional half-ball for very cold temperatures. It is easy to adjust for and not as big of a deal as people think. Having high quality rubber...

There is going to be a backlash to the digital age where it will be considered trendy and cool to get out of the house and go "screenless". I think there will be a demand for non-digital activities for generation alpha. Billiards is half way between a video game and golf so it is appealing in...
