    Cuetec Cynergy Nineball Series Cues

    I've shot with a Cynergy for the past five years. Good cue. I previously shot with a R360- both are very good cues. Cuetec has come a long ways

    Templates Work The Best For Racking But I Hate Them.

    I’ve used the same Magic Rack for 12 years and it still works well. Some are quite durable

    Nick Varner is a Fargorate 777

    I noticed the shaking too- it definitely is amazing how well he shoots with such a tremor

    Nick Varner is a Fargorate 777

    Varner has played in ultimate 8 ball events in the past year. Those matches must count towards his rating

    Best Current Pool Players 70+ Years Old?

    In the Legends of the Cue podcast interview a few months ago, Keith stated he can't really play any more due to an eye condition- I think he has macular degeneration

    Best Current Pool Players 70+ Years Old?

    I know Varner played in some of the recent Ultimate Pool events and performed decently. Still plays well on bar tables at least and I would imagine he still plays well in one pocket matches.

    Best Current Pool Players 70+ Years Old?

    He does play well still, even with his tremor, but it is hard to believe that his Fargo is accurate. I would think his ability level is now more accurately assessed to be in the low 700s

    Best Current Pool Players 70+ Years Old?

    in his Legends of the Cue interview, Billy Incardona said he can't play any more due to physical problems- I think he said his back bothers him too much

    Are Junior players being set up for a tough life?

    true- you should do what you love, but life is complicated- you can have multiple passions- hobbies, jobs, relationships. Difficult to get them all to align at the same time.

    I don't have time to watch the video right now- any news on the day, time and location?

    Justin Bergman is on a mission

    Dechaine is actually a year younger than Bergman- until I looked it up, I thought Dechaine was 2-3 years older. I guess he has gone back to being a local player after saying he was going to enter more tournaments across the country a few years ago. Both are still young enough to play top level...

    Johan back at 2026 Mosconi Cup Healm

    I think this team would have the best chance: SVB, Sky, Bergman, Gorst and Oscar. Still probably distinct underdogs, but if things start rolling their way, they could pull it off with the right coach in place now.

    Are Junior players being set up for a tough life?

    I’m confused- what do you mean? That one solid match against a world class player doesn’t prove much?

    Are Junior players being set up for a tough life?

    For example- I think Landon Shuffett had the potential to be a world class player- he annihilated Earl on a 10 footer and looked nearly flawless at age 18, but he decided that wasn't the lifestyle he wanted.
