Do you feel the need to rep every thread you believe stands out? I would rather REP and use the comments to tell why. Obviously, sometime you feel the need to reply. Just wondering. BTW, my first poll so forgive me if this somehow (read: 50% chance) gets messed up. So it was supposed to...

Need email address or way to contact. Have sent him PM here. But his last post was in 06. TIA........Paul

My sincere thanks and gratitude to all US veterans. God bless all of you. Today allows us the opportunity to reflect on what you've done for us. Let's not forget these brave men and women the other 364 days of the year. BTW, I'm a strong proponent of allowing Veterans free access to all US &...

I've found a copy of Ray Martin's 99 Critical Shots in good condition. There is no dust jacket but the inside front cover is autographed by Ray to someone named Glen. I won't divulge the asking price but it is less than dinner at Ruth's Chris. Does anyone know the fair value for a signed 1st...

Tom is too bashful to bring this up but it's worth mentioning to his many friends here. Tom won the senior club championship at his CC over the weekend. He works as hard on his golf game as his cue collection. He didn't even call me to brag I read it in the paper. Obviously, he's a much...

IMO, they should be outlawed in all games except 9 ball and 10 ball.

You make the call? You’re playing a good friend, no money just bragging rights. You play this friend often and you kind of know their strengths and weakness’s. Playing one pocket and only cue ball fouls. OK. Regardless of the score you’ve just fouled by not driving a ball to a rail or...

My GCIII was recovered/releveled in May 2005. No problems at all until just recently. One of the slates has popped. Not too suprising as the table sits on a floating slab basement floor. What is a little unusual, at least to me is this. The extent of the popped slate is only about 15 inches. It...

I believe that it does. I like my tips on the short side, the straight burnished side being between 1 and 2 MM (.04" to .08"). On my first generation 314 shaft I keep a dime radii. Recently I was given a LePro "milkdud" that I used to replace a Talisman medium-hard tip. The new tip is about 3 MM...

Anyone have a review, other than the BCA seal of approval. I googled the title and checked Amazon and didn't have any luck. Merry christmas to all...............Paul

Derby City was wonderful again. But I've got to relate a funny story to you all. I arrive at the DCC on Thursday around 1:30PM. My flights got me out of bed at 4AM and I was a little tired but still excited to be there. I head directly for the AZB room and sign up for one of the tables. The...

When last at the DCC I remember buying tokens for the smart table. IIRC, they were a buck each. Does anyone know if the US $1 coins will also work. I remember a few times needing the coins and having to stop the action and run out to the hallway for tokens. TIA.....Paul

So I’m in N. Carolina and went to Babineau’s Billiards for some pool and grub. Paul, the owner, gives me free table time and anyone who wants to can jump on the table. I’m playing this guy Rodney who shots pretty good and we trade a few games back and forth before he shows his real speed and...
