    Higher skill pocket billiards players - 9 ball or snooker players?

    Ronnie OSillivan is the most talented cueist on planet earth.....by a lot.

    Schon butt extensions question, how do they attach?

    If the weight with this extension adapter isnt enough, you can add a small section threaded weight bolt and cut a slot in the end of it to take in and out with a flat screwdriver. Put that in deep to the extension adapter.

    WNT, WPA and 2026

    Agreed and Pool is never going to be big time in the USA. Enjoy it for the fringe sport it is. Now we have more events to watch cheap with better production quality. There's honestly more events than most of us can watch. I'm liking the sped up versions of matches online.....that is genius.

    Buddy Hall talks "Deflection"

    That to me is too global a statement. There is so much to be said for "helping english" to get a ball to go into corner pockets off the facing, negating contact induced throw and avoiding skids not to mention there are many shots that can't be made with throwing the ball. I know the benefits...

    Have you ever attempted to play with a very warped pool cue, and did it bother you, and were you able to pot balls with it consistently?

    Is you are a player and not OCD...you can play with a house cue off the wall, a broomstick or a limb off a tree. Seen it all before. "It's not the arrow, it's the Indian."

    9ball break

    I suppose sure since you are playing who makes the most balls. If you are only scoring by who makes the money ball, the break is not much of a factor because there aren't a lot of run out players in APA.....though I know each area has their 7s that are heros. What would help you more would be...

    Need help identifying this table.

    If you dont own it yet or have it at your house.....you are better off paying a grand for a used gold crown with cushions that are NOT hard. Just a lot better to play on if you are trying to be a better player.

    cue/shaft orientation as you shoot, facing one way every single time!

    He sanded the stupid fiberglass wrap off it. I had an SST Cuetec shaft and it would be very tacky at times.

    Bingo.... Though I do like the events the guys stream and I can tolerate the idiocy.

    WNT, WPA and 2026

    Yeah...but that is chickenshit money...too much dilution of the market.

    WNT, WPA and 2026

    I gotta admit i dont even buy the yearly WNT subscription. I can watch after, sometimes during, on all the you tube videos that follow every event. Dont have time to watch as they happen during the week anyway. They are making money for sure....but without bigger TV deals, it isn't the kind of...

    9ball break

    Learning the break is all good, but if you arent a strong runout player playing other strong runout players it won't decide sets too often. As you become a better player, making a ball and having a shot after the break on the 1 is paramount. You can keep anybody in their chair. Make up a 3...

    I mean you can't cite Earl because he's OCD, XYZ and LMNOP....

    Need help identifying this table.

    Its not as old as it is made to look. If the maker mark is nowhere on it, and having MDF board....it is an import.
