Agree completely. Billy is a huge supporter, and brings a lot of energy and positivity, remember him in the Uncle Sam outfit? A couple years ago, while my girl and I were visiting Turning Stone to watch the tournament there, we took a break down in the casino for a bit. I was playing craps...

I really haven't been playing for long, at least not regularly, or taking it seriously. Started less than 10 years ago when in my late 50s. I went through the eyesight woes with pistol shooting, which I've done for decades prior to that. I don't have that long history of competition playing...

Hang in there Jay. Here's hoping you're back to 110% in no time.

My laptop gave me the "suspicious website" warning when I tried clicking on the link. That sometimes doesn't stop me, but it did this time.

I got a Rhino, for my GFs McDermott, a couple Christmases ago, and she likes it. That prompted at few others on our 8 ball team to get either shafts, or full cues from Rhino. Everyone is very happy with them. I've seen ads for Bizu Billiards, and they have a carbon fiber shaft for $103 with...

Good one Brian. I set this up and tried it at home. Isn't too hard, but that contact point on the initial object ball is the key.

An old shooting buddy used to talk about ERMAs, Easily Recognisable Military Acronyms. His point was that they usually weren't so easily recognisable until you heard them a few times.

Good job, congratulations!

That's the MET, in NYC. You have to see that in person, it's life size.

I got the Skittle Bowl for Christmas one year. It was fun and challenging, and when family came to visit that year, all my uncles were playing it most of the time they were there.

Could also be something from Emerson, Lake, and Palmer.
