    Sofia Mast "retiring?" The state of American pool

    ...what if she just really enjoys food culture, and cooking? Also, she's relatively unknown. She can go hustle the hell out of some pool when her and her classmates go out for drinks.

    US Open and Mosconi coming to ESPN

    Bingo. There will be interviews, and there will be ads. They may actually even pay an expert or two to talk about it.

    Do you ever get the feeling that the Fargo Rate of a player just does not seem right?

    I see it every now and then. For example, I was put into the Fargo system at a 380 a few years back after I had been playing maybe a year or so. The guy who put me in is a certified CSI/BCA ref, you've maybe seen them on the TVs here and there reffing. I was playing a fargo-handicapped...

    3D Printed Cue Extension

    Bringing this one back up to the top just to see if anything new has been going on in the 3D printed cue extension world the past seven or so months. Looking at getting the Cuetec Duo extension to fit my Avid rearend, but $110 seems a bit steep.

    Help identifying a possible hustler

    Wow thanks a lot, OP. This dude showed up in town yesterday and I was supposed to go play him tonight. He told us his name was John Michael Montgomery, but that "y'all will be calling me Jesus when I leave here!" It all makes sense now!

    Byrne's New Standard Book of Pool and Billiards

    Your overall sentiment might be on track, but I find that those of the younger generations who are really interested and dedicated will still read through these books, and are of the same makeup of those who did it before them. There's just fewer in between nowadays.

    Dr. Dave SAWS calibration

    I could have gone longer if I had to. Hell, the years before taking the game seriously I never used spin and still enjoyed the game. But once I got serious, I found that missing easy shots on the moneyball because my mechanics had gone to shit was more not fun than spin is fun, and upon some...

    Dr. Dave SAWS calibration

    I don't think using/not using spin early on is a one-size-fits-all matter. In my first year of playing pool seriously (that'd be last year), I reached a point where I decided to ditch spin almost completely, and went back to center ball almost exclusively. I had gotten my stroke down well...
