Grew up in a small midwestern town, population less than 2,000. We moved to new neighborhood, in the same town, when I was 6. Discovered a bumper pool table in my neighbors basement, which was more of a cellar, around age 8,and couldn’t get enough of it. Was sneaking up to the pool hall by age...

HAMB with or without knowledge. Without knowledge, it may be HAMBx2 or 3. With knowledge, HAMB will put you in a pretty good spot. I really don’t think there is a substitute for HAMB and that takes time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don’t know how to access my wife’s phone. How does a GF’s mom know how to access an estranged BF’s phone? I don’t get it. I also don’t accept apologies from bad actors caught acting bad. Apologizing after being caught is meaningless to me. Forgiveness is what we want when we screw up...

That still wouldn’t be McDermott making things right. I will sell both bad shafts to you, for what I paid, and you can trade them, plus $300, for two gen3 shafts. Then do the eBay hustle “to help pool players who really would like a Defy shaft.” I doubt you will feel like McDermott did their...

This may have been mentioned earlier in the thread but I haven’t seen it. It’s obvious the general public and even the pool playing public, have a difficult time conceding to the good hit/bad hit criteria. Predator/WPA and MR are trying to appeal to the (uninformed) masses. Maybe they have...

Great production by Predator! They may have overstated the attendance for the week but looked like great attendance today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Watching Yapp is a treat. So often, I couldn’t recognize his pattern till the last 3-5 balls, then it was like, “what a genius“! Incredible player. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wasn’t quite that good but did get me :20 detention in 1973. Didn’t discover SRV until the early 90’s but been lovin’ him since! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a slide rule. [emoji41] Best thing I can do is pull the slide out and play “Mary Had A Little Lamb”. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
